Easter Egg Shaped Card using Websters Pages Paper

close up of my bunny cut:

Here is another egg shaped card I made...this one is for me to keep and bring out every year....I bought this Websters Pages paper years ago and never cut into it untill last night...I fell in love with it sooo much decided to keep it so I can enjoy it each year. I did some fussy cutting to add the butterfly and the blue flower from the paper as well.

Again I used my Cricut Design Studio with Doodle charms cartridge to make the egg shape.

Also used the vivelle paper for the bunny and the Easter cartridge..just lovee the texture that paper gives my cut!

And the sentiment was printed from my computer then cut using the Home Decor cartridge.

Cardstock: Websters Pages: Natures Storybook:Plant & Nuture

On the lamp post I cut 3 images added my coffee seal cut got the light then added white texture magic for texture. The moss acts as a stabilizer when the card is open.

This one had some odd objects used to qualify me for Enfy's challenge things not normally used in making a card...used sandpaper(roof) folgers coffee seal(light in lamp post) roll moss from floral dept, vinyl window screen from hardware store (windows) latch hook canvas (rug)

Easter Layout

This layout was made for my DT assignment this week for Paper Hoarders...we were to use pastels.It is the second page to the Easter layout I did of Hunter...love his face when he ate a sweet tart for the first time...that inspired me to make some sweet tarts of my own using granite polymer clay...the hard part was sending Gary out to find me a small packet of sweet tarts...he had fun on his mission telling everyone what I needed them for...thanks babe...you are the best and sooo supportive!

I designed a pocket to hold a photo that pulls out just for Hunter where my son is holding him on his lap... and made two tags for my jounaling.

Cricut cartridges used: Easter, Tags Bags Boxes and more, Zooballoo

Cardstock: DCWV Nursery Stack Boys

Primas from the Spice Rack and No#9 Essentials

Glimmer Mist: Crushed Shells

Menopausal Barbie

This layout was inspired by the challenge over at SOUS... when I seen the Cameo challenge I knew I finally got to to this layout!!!

I had sooo much fun doing this layout...it is a photo of me when I worked as a floral designer in a flower shop....loved loved loved that job...had to leave due to me battling with never ending eye problems...corneal ulcers...ewe...due to me developing allergies from a glaucoma drop I was on!!!

Back to the layout ...while I worked at the flower shop I complained one day about my age and my pony tail needing to be cut off...well my dear friend Karry looked at me in front of everyone and said noooo....your'e "Menopausal Barbie"...then she wanted to dress me up as Menopausal Barbie on the Halloween Float... miss you Karry...RIP gf!

There is tons of sparke to this layout ...love that black glitter paper....and that black suede is just perfect for the cuts.I made a charm to hang off the button in the flower center...sorry this photo tonight is not showing the true colors...

I spent way too long looking for the "Real" Barbie font...I did find a SCAl cut for the Barbie and the title is from the new Barbie font...yes that Barbie logo is slanted as it is on the Barbie merchandise..I added Granny Boots since Barbie was know for her heels...me being older went for the granny boots!! I do actually have a paitr of these that I just love that I wear with my black lace dress...

Cricut Cartridges used: Plantin School Book: circle Forever Young: cameo,Heritage: Granny boots

Paper: RecollectionsModern Bouquet,Recollections Signature Glitter,Hot off the press black suede, Hot off the press Onyx glimmer
