Apple of my eye layout

Hi my crafting friends! I am trying to get caught up on all my scrapbooking layouts! Wow, I have a lot to get done! I spent the past week reviewing my pictures and putting them into categories to scrap. So be prepared to see a lot of layouts from me in the next few weeks!

For this layout I used the Country Life and Just Because cartridges.

The apples are cut from a Country Life at 4 inches. I shadowed the layers with chalk and used foam tape to adhere to the layout. The paper is from Stampin Up, I am on a mission to use up my paper stash! I have so much paper!!!!The title is from the Just because cartridge. I had to cut this at 8 inches to get it big enough to be a page title!
I hope you enjoyed my layout today! Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!
Hugs,
CindyB

Layout using Kate's ABC's

Hi my crafting friends! WOW! Have you all seen the cuts on "Kate's ABC"s"? I just picked it up and have fallen in love with this cartridge!



It is soooo sweet! I just had to use it for a layout of my granddaughter Brooklyn and grandson Coy. They are so sweet together! He always takes care of her!



Don't you love this little girl reading a book! This cartridge also has a font, so I used it to create the words Story Time on my gypsy.



Next, I am ramping up to start my video series again, and would love to have any recommendations on a cart to feature this month! Please leave me a comment with a recommendation and if I have it I will feature it!

Thank you all for stopping by and have a great day!

Hugs,

Guest Designer for Peachy Keen Stamps - Day 5

Well, my crafty friends....my week as Guest Designer is almost over! I can't believe it went sooo fast! I have had such a good time showcasing some of my favorite Peachy Keen Stamps this week!
For today's project, I just had to use a face stamp!

For my card I am using the "Once Upon a Princess" Cricut cartridge for the sweet little girl. And the face stamp I am using is "Princess Faces".



My card is a two way pull card that was featured on the Splitcoaststampers forum. I love how this card turned out! It was really fun to make!


And isn't that the cutest little face ever!
Don't forget about my giveaway this week, leave a comment on my post this week for a chance to win the "Create A Critter" face stamp!
I am closing the comments at 6pm CST on Friday and will announce a winner!



I also want to thank Peachy Keen Stamps for the great honor of being a Guest Designer this week!

Guest Designer for Peachy Keen Stamps - Day 4

Hi my crafting friends! Wow, what a week I am having....reading all your sweet comments has really made my week!

My project for today is another card...I am using the Peachy Keen Stamp set "Happy Bird and Phrases"! This card just makes me sing SPRING!


The sweet little bird is colored using Copic markers. One of the really neat things about Copics is you can color almost anything with the markers. If you notice the red embellishments on each side of the bird, those were originally white and I colored them with a red Copic. I love this, as you can customize anything you have!



I also made a matching envelope to go with this card.






Don't forget about my giveaway this week, just leave a comment on this post and I will announce a winner on Friday night.

The prize will be this super "Create a Critter" face stamp from Peachy Keen Stamps!




Thanks for stopping by and I will see you tomorrow on my last day of the Guest Designer this week!
Hugs,
CindyB
