Birthday Card

What a beautiful day we have today! I wanted to quickly share a birthday card that I made with you all.

I used the Sweet Treats Cricut Cartridge for the cupcake, and Lyrical Letters for the sentiment. I used the divine swirls cuttlebug folder on the cupcake frosting. The cupcake turned out a little smaller than I had hoped, but I thought I would use it anyway. Hope you like it!! 

Yes I'm Still Here

Hello Everyone!


I'm still here. As you may know I'm currently in Nursing school. I was busy with tests before Spring Break, then a Spring break full of wedding planning. Then my fiance and I are fortunate enough to have gotten sick over spring break and we have been bumming around since Saturday (Upper Resp Infection, Bronchitis). We both started on some meds today so hopefully we will be feeling better soon!! 


Here is a card that I made a couple weeks ago for my best friend's birthday. She was going to Vegas for her birthday so I decided to make a card to hold some extra gambling money. I normally do not like to give money, but I thought it fit this occasion. I forgot to take a picture of the inside, but I used clear photo corners to hold the bill in the card.

How Old? was cut from Lyrical Letters. The dice were drawn with the cricut markers, then cut out...from Designer's Calendar.  I popped them up with Pop Dots. (My fiance informed me that pop dots are my "trade mark." Haha!)

I love comments, so let me know what you think!!

Time for a Lay Out

I recently jumped into using divided page protectors along with my traditional 12 x 12 pages. I feel like this is cheating!!  It's amazing how fast pages come together using these. I never intended on using the divided page protectors but Im SOO behind I just had to. Wyatt and I have been together for 6 1/2 years, I have NOTHING done in our book!!!  I made each of us books of our childhood, but not one of us.  Part of the reason I am so behind is that I'm doing pages on things, like Proms, that our in our individual books too. I can't help it, I just want a book of us from the beginning on!  Here is a recent page that I did of our first prom.

I tend to keep my pages pretty simple. The title is from Lyrical Letters Cricut Cartridge and then I just added some bling to the letter and pictures.

The picture above is the other half of the layout using the divided page protector. This one has a 12x2 inch slot, 3 4x6in slots, and 2 6x4 in slots. I just need to add some journaling to the bottom right slot and this will be finished!
