Miss Kate Cuttable's Spring Challenge

Hi! Happy Spring (as it is snowing outside today here in Pittsburgh). The weather is not cooperating but I know Spring weather will be here soon.

There is another challenge over on the Miss Kate Cuttable's Galleria FB page. It's all about Spring!

For my project I created a 2 page layout with photos from Easter 2015.

For the border across the bottom I used the Tulip Border 

For the right page I used the Easter Traditions Title

Check out all the design team member's projects here.

Stop by the MKC Galleria FB Page to join in the challenge fun!

MKC Kickin' It Layout

Hello Everyone - Hope your weekend is going great. 

I'm at a Silhouette Warrior Weekend hosted by Art-Tech, my local scrapbook store, and I am creating all sorts of cool projects with my Cameo. So far I've etched, created a t shirt with HTV, did Rhinestones, used the Pen Tool on a banner and created Stamps.

I think my favorite was the stamping material. It is pretty cool and I'll share some of my creations soon. I still have all day tomorrow too!

Shout out to Kelly Rowe - she's doing an amazing job teaching 16 people who are all at various skill levels.

I'm up on the Miss Kate Cuttables blog today and have a two page layout to share.

I cut the title from the Kickin' It file.

The stars are also from the same file. I selected the star and offset in my Silhouette Studio software to create shadows and layered them. 

I added foam tape to make them pop off the layout.

I had a bunch of far away action shots (maybe I need a zoom lens!) 

so I decided to cut the soccer ball from the Sports Ball Collection 10" wide.

I then cut my photos to fill in the gaps of the ball. (I did not use all the layers of my soccer ball).

Here is the Sports Ball Collection:

Here's a close up of the title:

Here's the Kickin' It file:

I finished off my layout with the soccer shoe and I did the journaling on my Cameo using the pen tool.

Thanks for stopping by today - stop by the MKC Blog to leave me some love over there. :)

Don't forget to grab the freebie of the day from the MKC store!

Hippity Hoppity Layout

Don’t you just love Springtime? It is FUN! I sure do and so excited small signs of spring are popping up around me.

As soon as I saw the layout from the latest Kit I just had to make it. Check out the Poplar Street Tulips SVG Kit here. Here are the left and right side layouts.



I also used elements from The Hippity Hoppity SVG Kit that was released the prior week. That is the great thing about SVG Cuts files - the title is from a card but they also save everything off into an "Extras" Folder so you can use the elements on other pieces.

I also used the new 3D Bow that was a freebie last week.

Here is the full 2 page layout - click on it for a closer look

I used photos from last year to drop in digitally but plan on finalizing with photos that we are having taken 3/11 at a local park.

Did you see SVG CUTs is having a moving sale? Check it out here. Who doesn’t love a sale?

I am off to an all day crop today ~ should be lots of fun! So looking forward to it after a week of travel and all day meetings for work. Have a great weekend!

Bo Bunny Abbey Road Layout

I received my design team assignment from my local scrapbook store, The Crop Shop. Bo Bunny - Abbey Road. I love Bo Bunny and checked out the line on their site. I discovered the Bo Bunny blog that features awesome projects and challenges.

Here is a Sketch Challenge taking place:

Here is my Abbey Road Layout:

Circle elements are from Accent Essentials and font is Plantin Schoolbook.
Embellishments from Creative Charms.

Stop by tomorrow for details on the Origami Flowers.
I tried these for the first time on this layout and now I am hooked!

Christmas Layout - 2 Page Spread

I layed out this two page spread for my design team challenge for the Crop Shop. I used Reminisce Santa's Workshop papers.


It features a shaker box on the bottom so you can shake and see all the cute patterns from the backs of the paper. I used the clear plastic cover that came with my ruler packaging. I adhered it to the layout and added some ribbon as trim.
