Whimsical Wednesday

Stephanie over at Always Crafting and I decide to both make something using the thinking of you frame on the Cricut Lite Lacy Labels Cart and here is what I came up with. Click here to check out Stephanie's project.

Birthday Card for Grandma

Here is a my little guy making a birthday card for his Grandma. We cut everything with the Cricut, he picked everything he wanted cut and the colors he wanted to paint it all. He said the dinosaur had to be pink because that's a pretty color for Grandma. He said he had to add jewelry (the pink gem) and he has been loving these googlie eyes lately, seems we put them on almost every project.

And here is his completed project...

Chicago Millennium Park

Again another late one my computer was down...this was for Emma's Destination Challange

I made a 12 X 12 scrapbook page of my daghter playing at Millennium Park

P.S. The girl with the flowered top is my daughter, the others are my nephew and my baby sister.

Momo's Love Challange

I know these is very late but my computer was down and I could not upload.

Momo had a challange with the theme being love. So my son and I decide we would use TBB to make a present for his grandma so we made the box and I asked him what he wanted to put in it and he said kisses. So here is the picture of him putting kisses in the box.

Mojo Monday 146 / Throwback Thursday

Below is my entry for Mojo Monday 146.

I also made it baby theme since I accidently made my entry for Emma's Throwback Thursday simular to hers. So here is a card for an expecting famiy member.



I added glossy accents to the bottle and the paper kind of dipped in around the pop dot thats under it...I am hoping when it dries that will go away. (update 7:56am Yes! the paper straightened out after the glossy accents dried)

Emma's Throw Back Thursday

Here is my entry for Emma's Throwback Thursday, using Everyday Paper Dolls Cart


The page was supposed to say "splish splash I was taking a nap" because my silly boy did fall asleep in the tub, but the font I wanted would not cut right. So I settled for rubon's.

P.S. I started looking through my sons baby photos until I seen these which are some of my favortie and I totally forgot that Emma did bath time in her project until I came back on to link it. Maybe I'll work on another baby theme page and I wil just post it here on my blog also just to make up for the simularity.

My Pink Stamper Color Challange

Here is my entry for My Pink Stamper ( www.mypinkstamper.com ) color challange to use pink, green, orange and brown.

I used the cuttlebug with the plum blossoms folder on white cardstock then I used my gel pens for the orange and green. The thinking of you stamp was from the dollar bin at Michael's

My Sons Flag Project

I got this idea from Sarah over at www.pinkcricut.com but of course I changed it up a little.

Supplies
-2 pcs 8 1/2 X 11 white card stock
-Red & Blue Crayola Paint
-Paint Brush
-White Glitter
-Paste
-Paper Trimmer

We took one pc of card stock and cut 5 stips of 1in X 11in to use for the stripes

and we took the remaning 3 1/2 in strip and cut at 5in to be used for the blue behind the stars

and the remaaining pc of 3 1/2 X 6 was used to cut 10 stars from the George & Basic Shapes cart at 1 1/4 in

Then we painted the stripes red and the square pc of 3 1/2 X 5 blue.


We then took the remaining pc of 3 1/2 X 6 cardstock and cut 10 stars from the George & Basic Shapes and glittered those with white glitter.


Then we put our project together.
