A Halloween Card & Some Layouts

I was productive at my weekend getaways the middle of September and the beginning of October. Here are pictures of the Halloween card and layouts I completed during those weekends.

This is an A2 size card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2"). The pumpkin stamps were purchased at Archivers, and I used Spectrum Noir markers to color them. The patterned paper was from my stash, and I used black glitter tape behind the mat with the images and behind the inside sentiment. I borrowed the stamp for the inside sentiment.

I used the CTMH Sarita Paper Packet and Stickease Assortment to make the above layouts.

I used patterned paper from my stash for the first page of this layout and used my Cricut to cut the title cousins (sorry I can't remember which cartridge). On the second page, all cardstock is Bazzill. I used the CTMH Artbooking Cricut cartridge to cut the background of page 2, as well as the camera embellishment. I also used CTMH Flip Flaps to show all the pictures it took to get a good one of the kids. I also used glitter tape on the second page.

For this layout, the base of the pages is Wausau cardstock. It is a shimmery blue. The trim at the bottom and in the corners is from the Cricut Circle Paper Trimmings cartridge. Again I can't remember which cartridge I used for the font, but I think it was Nursery Rhymes.

I finally started my album from my trip to Portland, Oregon. This is my cover page. I used CTMH Dream Pop patterned paper for the base. Oregon was cut from the Destinations Cricut cartridge. I can't remember which font I used for Portland and July 2013.

I bought the patterned paper for the base of this page at a local scrapbook store. The dimensional sticker I added to the photo was also bought at the local scrapbook store.

I used patterned paper from the CTMH Dream Pop paper packet for the base of this page. All solid cardstock is Bazzill. The dimensional stickers were purchased at a local scrapbook store.

I again used patterned paper from the CTMH Dream Pop paper packet for the base of these pages. All solid cardstock is Bazzill, and the dimensional sticker was purchased at the local scrapbook store.

The solid background cardstock for this layout is Coredinations. All other solid cardstock is Bazzill. I cut the beer mug at 3" from the Smiley Cards Cricut cartridge. I used chalk on the mug where the beer would show through and then added dots of liquid glass to make it look like sweat on a cold mug.

All solid cardstock for this layout is Bazzill. I cut Oregon from the 50 States Cricut cartridge.

The base for this layout is from the CTMH Dream Pop paper packet. All solid cardstock is Bazzill. Again, I can't remember which Cricut cartridge I used for the title. Boy, I guess I'd better start writing down which cartridges I use.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my card and layouts. 

Fall Layout

I actually found time to make a 2 page layout, and here it is.

The base cardstock is Wausau cardstock and it's a shiny gold. All the solid cardstock is Recollections. I used the Pooh Font Set Cricut cartridge to cut "fall fun" at 1 3/4" using the Wood feature. I cut the leaves from the 3 Birds Straight From The Nest Cricut cartridge at 6". I inked the top of the title and the edges of the leaves with CTMH's Chocolate Exclusive Ink pad using a dauber.

Here is a screenshot of my Gypsy, and you'll see that I used the hide/contour feature to hide one of the leaves I didn't want.

It sure felt good to fit in some scrapbooking! Hopefully I can get more done this weekend.

First CricutDIVA Design Team Post - Race for the Cure Layout

I am a new member of the CricutDIVA Design Team and this is the first project I'm posting over at CricutDIVA Blog. You should check out the blog when you get a chance.

This is the layout I created for the first time I participated in the Race for the Cure.

The base for the pages is Wausau paper. All other cardstock used is Recollections. I used the Pink Journey cartridge for all the die cuts. I cut the title Race for the Cure at 3 inches, the shoe at 2 inches, the wings at 1 1/4 inches, the pink ribbon at 3 inches and the border at the bottom of the second page at 2 1/4 inches. Here is a picture of my Gypsy screen as to how I had the cuts laid out on the mat.

I added Recollections glitter to the shoe, wings and ribbon to bling up the layout, and here are close-ups of those cuts.

I hope you enjoyed my layout.
