Nappin with Dad

Here is a double page layout I started on at a crop I went to recently. I took some pic's of Emily and her daddy nappin on the couch with Eeyore and could not resist to make a scrapbook layout of them. The base is textured cardstock from DCWV, designed paper is from Nana's Kids stack (DCWV), pink and blue mats are plain cardstock.

I did borrow a cartridge from Tammy (my sister) for the Eeyore, guess that will be my next cartridge purchase. lol  The lettering was cut using Jubilee cricut cartridge and DCWV textured cardstock,  I did design this with the Gypsy. Sorry I don't remember the sizes it was cut at. I think this one was cut at 3.5 inches.

Here I think Eeyore was cut at 3 inches, dream at 1.5inches(?). 

I just jove this cut!
Thanks for stoppin by today hope you liked what you saw! I love to hear comments so feel free to leave some! Have a wonderful day and God bless!!

Cupcake card

Here is my first card designed and cut using my new Gypsy. Not a real fancy card but thought I might give it to my hubby for his Birthday.

I don't recall what papers I used but I think most were from Citrus Cardstock stack from DCWV. The ribbon is some the $1 bins at Target. The cherry is cut from plain cardstock.

I popped up the cupcake for a little added dimension. The "frosting" is from a K&Co stack I picked up on clearance at Target a few weeks ago, believe it is a wedding stack, and is a glitter paper.

Here it is with my Create and Gypsy ( still have to come up with a nickname for these, lol ) Well thats all for now, thanks for stoppin by and takin a peek at what I've been up to. Have a wonderful day and God bless!

Paper Playtime Challenge entry

The challenge is to use only black, white and silver.

This is what I came up with.

 The designed paper is from DCWV All Dressed Up paper stack, glitter papers are from Christmas Mat stack, plain black paper is also from Christmas Mat stack, plain white is some from the scrap pile. Gifts were cut from MS Holiday Cakes cricut cartridge @ 3".  "Joy" was cut using Jasmine cricut cartridge at 2".
The little flowers were some that my sister gave me, she got them from Michael's. I inked the white paper with silver ink and a touch of black on the very edges.
 Tried to get a couple more pic's up but have a glitch  and and won't upload right now, will try to add later. I popped up the gift in the middle. At the bottom I cut off a little and added a piece of glitter paper.
 Hope you enjoyed looking, love to read your comments. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!

Here you can see the present is popped up, and the inking on the edges.

Another Christmas card

Here is another card I put together. I used Jubilee cricut cartridge for the "Merry Christmas" and Christmas Noel for the bears.

This one is a VERY simple card. I used plain card stock and coredinations card stock.

I "poped" this bear up a little for some diminsion. That's all for now. Thanks for looking! Have a wonderful day!

New card

Here is a card I put together today. I used Christmas Noel cricut cartridge.

The red background and trees is from Citrus cardstock pad, the red on the church and shadow on Happy Christmas are plain cardstock as are the snow, star and cream on the title. I used a yellow marker to color in the center of the star, it cuts as two pieces.

I used my glue pen and glitter to add a little sparkle to the trees and snow. The church was cut at 4 1/2 in. the trees and Happy Christmas were cut at 2 in. The star was cut at 2 3/4 in.

Here you can see I "pop dotted" the church for a little added dimension. Now only about 29 more to make. LOL

Will try to make a few diffrent ones to post on here soon, thanks for looking! Hope you have a wonderful day!
