Lucky, lucky me!!!

I consider myself honored to call Melanie & Joy from Everyday Cricut friends of mine, and I have been fortunate to be asked back as a guest designer on Everyday Cricut.  If you haven't stopped at their blog yet, make sure you do because they are giving away the new "Country Living" cartridge this week. 

I am going to make good use of my time as a guest designer, and do as many scrapbook pages as I can.  Because if you are anything like me, you are sooooooooooo far behind on your scrapbooks.

Here is my first layout:




  All of the paper in this layout is from the DCWV  'Guy' stack.
I recently received a pack of the 3m's new craft post it paper...this stuff is amazing in the cricut.  It cuts like butter, and the entire back side is repositionable adhesive.  So it's perfect to use it for a mask like I did in this layout.  I cut a heart from the simply sweet cartridge, and then peeled of the backing....attached it to the cardstock...spritzed the cardstock with 'leather' glimmer mist from Tattered Angels.  Then peeled the heart off, and had a perfectly masked heart shaped.



Title was cut using Simply Sweet cartridge @ 1.5"




   The pointy finger is from Graphically Speaking cartridge.



Thanks for stopping by!

Hey Cupcake!

Hey all, today is Pink by Design - team day.  Here is my card I made using Sarah's Rock On sentiment stamp set.  Here is a link, if you would like to order a set for yourself :  Pink By Design Store.

Let me apologize for my picture...it's not the best quality.  I may re-take pics when I get home from work in the natural light.  The light from my studio didn't do the card any justice.  


Products used:
Pink By Design - Rock on stamp set
Sweet treat cartridge

My minds eye – quite contrary line
Stampin’ Up ribbon & glitter
Primas
Glimmer mist and liquid appliqué

This cupcake is from the sweet treats cart, I took the top part of the cupcake covered it with liquid applique, heated with my heat gun.  Then sponged on SU! rose red ink, and sprayed with bubblegum glimmer mist.  This is waaay cuter in person.  Thanks for stopping by!
