June Deal of the Month Projects

Here are a few pages I did using Creative Charms products from the June Deal of the Month. Stop on by the Creative Charms site to take advantage of this Deal. The selection is perfect for scrapping your spring & summer photos!

This first one is a sketch challenge on the SVG Cuts site. The challenge is to do a page about yourself.



A few closeups...


This second page features a photo of my son and my great niece. Title is “Fav Cuz?” Even though they look like they are best buddies my little guy takes a beating from his younger cousin but still loves her. Love the felt butterfly and flowers from the June Deal of the Month. I added some hand stitching to the layout.

Enjoy your first Day of Summer!

Scarf & Gloves

Thought I would share my very first project that features fabric cut on the Cricut. I went on You Tube and did a search for a tutorial. There are alot of great videos on the subject. Joann's sells the plain fleece scarf and gloves.

My great-niece calls my sister-in-law Laura (her Grandma) La La so I did a play on words and featured "fa la la" on the scarf. The tree is from SVG Cuts and the type was done in Illustrator and imported into SCAL. The snowflakes are just trimmed with scissors. I added some stitching under the trees and added some accent buttons.

I started out with some easy cuts but from what I've read you can do some intricate cuts with fabric...will have to experiment.

These would make great gifts for teachers!

Baby Name Collages

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

Here are some recent baby name collages that I created. I use a 21 x 9 shadowbox frame and layer all the elements. The collages are designed to match the baby's room. I used elements from 3D Mums and Fall Flowers SVGCuts.com to cut for these. Love SVG Cuts - would highly recommend that you check out their site.


Here is closeup view to see the layering, details:

Here is another example. I leave an area on the right to insert a photo of the baby.


I've done a bunch of these for family & friends. I gave the one to my niece for her shower and she loved it - can't wait to see how it looks on the baby-to-be's room!
