Challenge:   Children's Birthday

Dates:  April 30, 2013 to May 6, 2013

Hey come one over and see how I kick off our Children's Birthday week. And you will want to keep coming back the rest of the week to get some inspiration! I have been holding onto this adorable image for just the right way to use it...I do not own this cartridge yet but it is certainly on my want list. The image comes from Teddy Bear on Parade a fairly new cartridge for the Cricut machine...yes I am "old school" and do so LOVE my Cricut and Gypsy!! So here is a cute and adorable little card that I intend to hold onto until I have just the right little sweet girl to give it to.





We'd love you to link up and join our challenge!

So head over to Cuttin and Stampin and you can see the creations and even join our challenge.



Beautiful Bling Blog Hop


Welcome to the Beautiful Bling Blog hop.  April's
birthstone is a diamond, so we added some bling to our projects.




I have a huge back log of photos that need to be scrapped so any chance I can jump in a hop and get some of them done is a good thing! I also absolutely love, love, love using bling on my album! So, check out my layout I have created. Thanks for joining in on this hop.



Your next stop is: Tricia's blog


Here is the whole line up, just in case you need it.

Thanks and have a great weekend!



It's Fiesta Time!!

Challenge:   Cinco de Mayo Projects

Dates:  April 23, 2013 to April 29, 2013

 I completed a fun project for this week. I am going to be the cook at a National Scrapbook Day weekend crop which coincides most of the time with Cinco de Mayo!! This totally excites me when it does that cause not only do I get to plan fun decorations but I get to have a fabulous Mexican menu all day long!! So this is going to be the menu board. In the blank area I will put a tag to change out for lunch and dinner with the menu displayed.




Cartridges Used:
Birthday Bash: Pinata
Graphically Speaking: Sombrero
Mickey Font: Words

Easter Blog Hop


Welcome to the "Easter" Blog Hop!  



We're so happy you could join us today!  

 You should have arrived from Sandy's blog.  If you happened by my blog or are joining me from your dashboard, head over to Miranda's blog to start at the beginning.  We don't want you to miss any of the fun! 
 In addition to seeing a lot of awesome Easter creations, there is some blog candy available too.  Miranda will be giving away a Michael’s gift card.  To be eligible for the blog candy, you are required to visit each stop in the hop and leave a comment!  The winner will be announced Wednesday, March 27th on Miranda's blog! 

My project is very picture heavy...I made a very unique mini-album for the pictures from one Easter. I don't do mini-albums often but I have made several over the years...I think this one is my most favorite I have ever done. It was a whole bunch of graduated sized squares so I put them together to create this mini-album. Hope you enjoy all the pics.






 

 

 

 


Sorry the pictures are not the best quality...but if you click on them and make them larger I think they will be okay! Thanks for taking the time to hop!!


Next on the hop is Angela's blog!!!
