Brave the Rapids

Okay, I have yet another scrapbook page from my trip to Walt Disney World. It was so long ago, but I'm not giving up on that scrapbook! At Animal Kingdom we went on Kali River Rapids. 

This is the story about our ride through the rapids:

 For this page I went fairly simple, because I noticed that it takes me forever for me to finish a page. I just want to get down my memories before I forget them!

Minnie Mouse

Here is another easy card for you! My friends love Minnie Mouse, and I had these two cute polka dot papers in my scrap pile so this was a no brainer. I used my  Martha Steward border punch  because I love it so much. It looks like lace! I used the Mickey and Friends Cricut cartridge to cut out Minnie.  

I think she came out pretty cute. Happy Crafting!

Thank you Teacher

It's June, and that means the end of school, so Thank You cards are in order! This paper is from MME, I I though it made the perfect car.d The apple is from Plantin Schoolbook, I used the spiral notebook border punch too. This card was super easy and super cute. 

Happy Crafting. 

Easter Layout

Here is a quick post. I had to snap it fast because I was giving this layout away. Isn't it cute? I used the Easter 2010 and Stretch your Imagination Cricut carts.  

New Sizzix Die

I got a new toy recently! The Sizzix pop-up cards die. I my first card with this die was a Mother's Day card. This adorable paper is from 3 Bugs in a Rug. I used the Mother's Day 2010 Cricut cart for the front of the card. Then I used the Apron Lace border Fiskars border punch for the white border.

This is the inside. I love the pop up center. And Sizzix makes a die set to match the shape inside. 

It went over really well on for everyone I gave it to!

Happy Crafting. 

A good scrap card

Okay, I mostly misssed spring and it's already almost summer, but here is a great card to help you use up all of your scraps. If you are anything like me you save scraps. And I save them to a ridiculous (that's what hubby says) size. I have 4 accordian folders full of small scraps and 2 plastic cases full of larger scrap pages. So I finally decided to do something with the really small pieces. 

Basically I just put together a bunch of matching paper and cut it into strips. The biggest piece is 1.5" by 1. I managed to make 5 of these cars out of  8 little scraps of paper. I really liked them, but the were a little plain so I cut this butterfly from the Indy Art Cricut Cartridge and added some bling. What do you think?

Happy Crafting!

New Card

Wow, I haven't blogged in a while. What a shame because it's National Craft Month. But here goes. I finally got some time to make cards. Okay, I know this is a bad picture, but I took it with my cell phone. I made this card using the Cricut Handy Man Lite Cartridge. My coworker wanted something funny to give to her hubby for his birthday. 

This is what I came up with. It's a lot of pink, but that was the only wood grain paper I had. The pink paper is from American Crafts, and the rest is just random cardstock that I have. The font was printed on my computer.
