Snow, Snow and more Snow

Yes in California we at times get snow. In December 2009 we had a record year for snowfall. The white stuff stayed on the ground at our home for a whole week. Unbelievable!! My kids had a blast playing in it. We even made snow cones. I used the Winter Woodland Cartridge for the deer.

Happy Creative Day!!

Winter Woodland

Recently finished 2009 album. Yeah, I am catching up with my photos. Winter Woodland is such a neat Cricut Cartridge. This cartridge has some of the neatest images. As you can see my album pages are simple but fun. Instead of using the traditional red and greens, my paper is more in the Fall colors. The page turned out great. Tomorrow is my trip to Sams Club in order to download my photos and get them printed. We have photos from Fall 2010 till now to get done. Needless to say there are alot of photos.

Have a super day and Thanks for stopping by.

Balancing Act

This cute little girl (my daughter) decided to paint her toenails. It was the way she painted them that  had me laughing up a storm. She has very good balance as you can see. This 12 X 12 page was very simple to create. I just used the Doodle Charms Cartridge. Cutting 2 - 2in Flower 1 Border and shift. I used glitter glue for the accents on the flowers and added a rub on saying to the main page.

Enjoy and Think Outside of the box.

12 X 12 Page Cricut Cartridge Freshly Picked

Good morning everyone!! Hope your weekend was great. Today we have some sunshine here in Northern California. We are hoping the sunshine stays for good. I am sorry the photo of my page is a bit fuzzy. You can still get the idea of the layout.

Cut 1 - 2 in Flower 7 words (bulb), 1 - 2 in Rake 2 words (grow), 1 -  2 in water can words (water). Cut 2 3 X 4.5 in rectangular mats. Use glitter gems on the words.


Another simple but fun page. Enjoy!!

12 X 12 Page Using Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge

Well it is Tuesday here in overcast Northern California. Wishing for some sunshine so our garden will just start growing well. Today's project is from a couple of years ago. I am two years behind in my albums, catching up currently. Anyways, I thought I would use my Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge. There are alot of cute garden type images perfect for the photos which are used.

Just cut 1 - 3 in Rabbit, 1 - 3 1/4 in Icon Rabbit Shift and Icon Rabbit for basket and apple. Cut 1 2 3/4 in Tigger Icon and Icon Shift for Vegetable Parts.

Super easy, cute and fun. Use your imagination and see what you will come up with. Hope your day is a happy one.
