Thanksgiving Basket

Hi!

I wanted to share the Thanksgiving Basket I did last week for the assisted living Thanksgiving party/dinner.

The pilgrims, Indians, cornucopia, and turkey were all cut from paper doll dress up. I distressed some of their clothes and feathers. There is also a lot of cuttlebugging although it's hard to see in the picture. Happy Thanksgiving was cut from wild card as well as the scalloped oval it's sitting on. The turkey and pies were cut using the Cricut along with Sure Cuts Alot. They are patterns from My Scrap Chick!

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend!
Thanks for stopping by.

Pilgrim Bear

Hello!

Hope you're having a great Saturday!

I wanted to share a Thanksgiving card I made for a little one.

The bear is a new My Scrap Chick file called Pilgrim Bear. Isn't he just the cutest! I embossed his basket with Distressed Stripes using the Cuttlebug. Then inked it a little to give it a rustic look. The brown box he's mounted on is embossed with my pumpkin embossing folder. Paper is K&Company. The rafia I had lying around from another project and I found the leaves at Hobby Lobby way back when!

Thanks for taking time out of your weekend to stop by!

Have a great day!

Here ya go....

The pumpkin, Spider, Candy Corn, Haunted House and bat are all cut files from MyScrapChick! The tree is from Doodlecharms. I cut Happy Halloween from Hello Kitty and finally the Mummy is from Paper Doll Dress Up!

Happy Thanksgiving

Hi everyone!

Sorry I have been MIA! I wanted to share a recent card I made for the Scrappy Frogs Challenge blog. For this challenge we were asked to create something that had to do with Thanksgiving Dinner.

Here is my take......

The background paper I believe is DCWV. I got it last year and never used it. I thought it was perfect for this challenge with the pumpkin pies on it. The turkey was cut with SCAL using the Cricut. The pattern is from My Scrap Chick. The stamp I just got at Michael's but can't remember who makes it. The little leave brads were from the Harvest Collection at Hobby Lobby. Now head on over to the Scrappy Frogs Blog (link on sidebar) and show us your Thanksgiving dinner creations. There is even a chance to win a great prize!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Halloween Treat Bags

Hi there!

I just wanted to share the latest challenge we were asked to do over at the ScrappyFrogs Challenge Blog. Mindy asked us to create a Halloween themed bag using the 2-5-7-10 box from SplitCoast Stampers.

The Cat in the pumpkin is a cut file from MySrapChick. I embossed the pumpkin with the Distressed Stripes Cuttlebug embossing folder. The spiderwebs are punched from a Martha Stewart border punch. The little flowers are Prima and the flower center is a brad.

Now head on over and play along with us a ScrappyFrogs. We would love to see your take. Plus, there is a chance to win a great prize! Click the banner on my sidebar.

Medical Basket

Good morning,

I wanted to share another basket with you. This one is again for Sunrise, the assisted living place I do a lot of baskets for. They we're offering Flu Shots to the public and wanted to have a raffle.

Here is what I came up with....

The doctor and nurse bear a paper piecing patterns from My Scrap Chick. Check out the link on my sidebar. The stethoscope, ambulance, and nurse bag are all from Everyday Paper Dolls. The band-aid is cut from Indie Art. The pills are just ovals cut in white and red and white and blue. I cut the colored one in half and adhered it to the white. There is also a syringe but I now noticed you can't really see it. It was a clip art I turned into a cut file.

Thanks for stopping by!

More layouts

Good Morning!

I want to go back to posting a few more pages from my sister-in-laws scrapbook I made for her back in August.

This is the 4th of July page...

The big bear sitting with the flag is "Flag Bear" single pattern from My Scrap Chick. The paper I found at Archiver's. The font is from my Storybook Cricut cartridge. The little flag bear was a Scal download. I can't remember where I got it from. So if you happen to see it and it's yours please let me know so I can give you the credit.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Snow fun!

Hi!

I'm going to share one more layout with you today!

This one is for winter. We all live in Northeast Ohio so we get A LOT of snow.

All the images came from My Scrap Chick except the snow flakes. The birds and snowman are the Winter Re-tweet pattern collection. Aren't they just the cutest? The snowflakes came from Christmas Cheer. I stickles each and every snowflake. The title is a true type font cut with SCAL.

Happy Holidays!

Hello all!

Hope everyone is having a good day!

I wanted to share the Christmas layout!

All the images here are from My Scrap Chick. It's the Holiday Helpers pattern collection. I stickled the ornaments in the box and wrote Decorations with my Xyron Design Runner. The wreath was made with my Martha Stewart Branch punch and I added the bow and the berries are tiny red adhesive gems. I added the fire in the fire place using fire from a fire place on Joys of the Season. The title was cut using a true type font and SCAL.

Have a great evening and thanks for stopping by!

Hanukkah

Good evening all!

Here are some more pages from the book!

My Sister-in-law's hubby is Jewish so of course we needed Hanukkah pages. I had so much fun with these pages being I had never cut them before! I think it came out really cute!

The dreidel, Star of David and menorah were all cut from Joys of the Season. The bear is a My Scrap Chick cut. He's actually the Patriotic bear. I changed her outfit and added the Star of David instead of the flag. I embossed her shoes with the Distressed stripes Cuttlebug folder. The title was cut using a true type font and Sure Cuts Alot!

Back & Yellow SSPT challenge

The challenge for Sugar Sweet Paper Treats this time was to use black & yellow on your project.

This proved hard for me because all I could think about was those stinkin' Pittsburgh Steelers. Yuck...LOL! Being a die hard Browns fan I'm not a fan of those colors..LOL!

Anyway here is my take....

The sketch was from CPS121. It was such a fun sketch. Check it out here. The adorable little bee bear is a cut file from My Scrap Chick. I love them! I cut the scalloped rectangle from Storybook. The circles were cut from Nesties. The little flower is a glitter Prima with a brad center. The background paper is from DCWV LeCreme stack.

The little bear is a cut file from My Scrap Chick! Isn't he just the cutest. I cut him using SCAL and the Cricut. I embossed his shoes and shirt with the distressed stripes cuttlebug embossing folders. I also embossed the white box behind the bear with swiss dots.

Father's Day #2

Hi again!

I just wanted to share with you the card I made for my Father-In-Law. He is all about grillin' in the summer! He makes some wonderful stuff. Yummy. Anyway, I just can't get enough of this little ant from My Scrap Chick. So I had to use him. This card also fits the challenge over at Paper Blooms this week which is to make a card for a man of influence. Who has more influence than a dad.

Here is the card....

The hamburger and hot dogs are stamps from Studio G that I found in the dollar bin at JoAnn's. I colored them with my Prisma's. The ant as I said is a cut file from My Scrap Chick. I embossed his hat and apron with my Cuttlebug using the Argyle folder. The grass was cut from Plantin Schoolbook. On the inside I have a little stamped grill in the corner.

Thanks for stopping by!

BBQ Basket

Good rainy day to ya!

I wanted to share a basket I finished up yesterday for the Senior Center my mom and I volunteer at. They are having a Father's Day Picnic later this week and asked if I could put together a manly basket for a prize. I thought BBQ! What man doesn't like grillin'? Or so I told myself...LOL!

On to the basket........

Now, I feel like I'm cheating on my Cricut Cartridges because I finally bought Sure Cuts A Lot. I couldn't find enough images to make a full basket with one theme for a guy on my carts so I used SCAL. I found a WONDERFUL website with the cutest images ever!!! All images used in the basket are from My Scrap Chick. If you have SCAL and haven't checked them out do yourself a favor and click here.

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great day!
