Shower Tags and It's a Boy layout
































The tags are for the favors for my sister's bridal shower. I cut the tags at 2.5 from Sweethearts. To glitter them, I used the packing tape trick and placed clear packing tape on the back of the image with the sticky side showing through the umbrella cut. I then sprinkled Martha Stewart glitter over the front and glued them to a blank tag cut. The writing on the back is clear labels.

They will be attached to bath salts and mesh sponges to keep with the spa theme.

For the It's a Boy layout, the paper is from Basic Grey's LilyKate line. The title is cut from New Arrival and shadowed. I used Martha Stewart glitter on that too. The paper looks greenish yellow but is actually a bright yellow.

Scrapbook layouts

















































My son's Little Gym teacher had her daughter at 27 weeks. They are overwhelmed with offers to help so decided to start a scrapbook for the baby. The pink layouts are for her. I liked the "Cute as a Bug" layout so much I decided to do a blue one for my son's album.

For the "Cute as a Bug" layouts, I used the Debbie Mum stacks I got at Joann's and cut the title from Hello Kitty Font.

For the "It's a Girl" the paper is Basic Grey LilyKate line. The title is cut from New Arrival and is glittered with Martha Stewart glitter.

For the Cutie Pie layout, the paper is again from the Debbie Mum stacks. I cut the title from Hello Kitty font and the primas and ribbon are from my stash.

4th of July cards





I made this series of cards for Operation Write Home. I used the One Sheet Wonder template contained in the new Wishes book. It's great and super easy! The paper is from my stash and the stamps are all Studio G. The template made two of each of these cards.

PBS Kids Sprout Birthday card





PBS Kids Sprout is a channel devoted to preschoolers. They show birthday cards every day. Friday was my son's second birthday and his card made it on the air! I'm super proud.

I used Sesame Street Font and Sesame Street Friends. The clouds are from Create-A-Critter and the balloon is from George (I think).

Thank you cards



My parents gave my two year old a Radio Flyer trike for his birthday. I used the B is for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge to make the perfect thank you card.

My sister is giving him the Little Tykes coupe so I also used the B is for Boy cart on her thank you. Both images were cut at 3" and I used paper from my stash for the backgrounds. The Thanks stamp is a Studio G.

Cinderella cards




I

got these glitter shoes in a 79 cent box of chipboard shapes at Tuesday Morning. I bought the box for the glittery crowns but thought these shoes could make a cute card. I needed more so I used the shoe on Gypsy Wanderings and cut them out of mirrored cardstock. Found the matching paper at my LSS and borrowed the perfect Impression Obsession stamp from my best friend. I used Martha Stewart's punch around the page loops and double loops for the background.

Autism card


I participated in the autism challenge on the Cricut message board (back in April but better late than never) and created the following card. It's an A2 card. I ran the pink base through the cuttlebug hearts folder. I just cut the white piece and edged it with a silver metallic marker. The puzzle pieces (the autism symbol) are cut from Don Juan. I sandwiched the silver glitter paper between the base and the heart cut out to give it sparkle. Thanks for looking!
