CWC Summer BBQ theme Challenge

Hi all!  It's time for another challenge over at Cooking With Cricut.  This week the challenge is Beginning of Summer with a BBQ/Picnic theme.  I came up with a cute scrapbook page, using only my Imagine and my Enjoy the Seasons cartridge.  Even the patterned paper is from this cartridge:-).  I hope you like it!

June Calendar Page

Here is my calendar page for June. For this month I really wanted to incorporate a slide into the page as it seemed like my kids have already been doing a lot of swimming this summer!  I used my Imagine art cartridges for most of this.  The sun and slide came from Enjoy the Seasons and the calendar is from Baby Boutique.  The paper is all DCWV, it was an Ultimate stack I got a while ago and the background paper is Creative Memories Sea Glass.  I cut the banners out by hand and the title was done with the CTMH Typewriter Keys stamp set which is my favorite set for titles right now!

Thanks for stopping by!  Happy Crafting!

Dad's Day Card

Hi all! Well summer is definitely here!  These last few weeks have been so fun with the kids that I haven't had any time to sit in my craft room and do some crafting.  Luckily, the kids are at VBS mornings this week and I've had some time to finish up Ava's invitations for her birthday along with get some Father's Day cards made.  I saw this adorable card on pinterest the other day from the Papered Cottage and I wanted to make my own version of it.  I started by going to mycutsearch.com and looking up "tie" in the search tool. I found a bunch of options but the one that looked good to me was the one from the Designer's Calendar cartridge.  I didn't have the other carts that some of them came on so this one was it.  I then went to look at some of my scraps for some "manly" colors and this is what I came up with.  The letters stamps are CTMH and the Happy Father's Day is Stampin UP!

I made two versions, one with the hearts and another without...

 ...without

 Both together.

CWC Blogaversary Week Day 3, Use Pink and Flowers, Satin, or Fabric

Welcome to the Cooking With Cricut Blogaversary Week, Day 3!  This week the design team along with myself, are creating a different themed project each day.  Today's project is to use the color Pink along with one of the following, flowers, satin or fabric.  I have chosen lots of pink and more flowers from the Art Philosophy cartridge.

I used a Stampin UP paper pack for the background strips and the large flower was cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge, once in pink and once in black.  I then stamped the Images on it using the Just For You stamp set from Close to My Heart.  The sentiment is from a stamp set in the Art Philosophy package.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Don't forget about all the fabulous prizes to be won over at Cooking with Cricut.  If you want to play along with this weeks pink challenge, link up your creation at Cooking with Cricut!

CWC Blogaversary Day 1 Week Long Celebration

Welcome to Day 1 of the week long celebration over at Cooking with Cricut!  This week the design team will be creating projects daily for our daily challenges and giveaways!  It is going to be lots of fun with tons of inspiration to be had!  The challenge for today is All Things Girly, Pink, Frilly, Lace, Bling-Feminine.  I have created a thank you card that is definitely girly.

For my card I used mostly Close To My Heart product.  The paper is from the Stella collection that came in my consultant kit.  I am in LOVE with this paper pack and new that I wanted to use it for something soon.  After making flowers with my Art Philosophy cartridge for my altered frame, I had to make more.  These are a different flower on the cart that I rolled and put a pearl in the middle.  The stamp is from the Art Philosophy collection called Frames, Tags and Borders.

 Love these flowers!
