Let's Bowl!

Hey everyone - here is a two page layout that I created for my son’s bowling birthday party. I was going to evenly distribute the photos on both pages but once I cut the elements for the left hand page and started placing images on my page I decided to just feature one photo of my handsome birthday boy.

I used SVG Cuts The Green Room SVG Kit.
It has great SVGs for bowling, pool, cards & darts. Will be using this one again.

Page two is a little more cramped. I recycled an old musical greeting card for this side. If you lift up on this section it plays “You’ve got a friend in me” from Toy Story.
Under the flap I did a little outline of all the kiddos with their names. Some day when my son is in his teens we can look back and remember all his friends from his 6th birthday.

Here are a few closeups.
I used Creative Charms to accent and twine from The Twinery.

Have a great week!

Let’s Go For The Snow!

Hey everyone I have a layout to share with you today. If you are a fan of SVG Cuts you may have already seen this on their FB page or blog. It is a layout I created for an SVG Cuts DT Project. I incorporated two fabulous Winter collections from SVGCuts into my layout and used the gorgeous Bo Bunny Snowfall papers.

Scrapbooks Etc just released the top 2012 trends for scrapbooking on their FB page and I incorporated a few techniques in the layout:

Use inks, mists and sprays to get “artsy”

Tie It Up by using twine on your layout.

Please stop by the SVG Cuts Blog to see more project details! Have a great weekend.

Candy Cane Treats

Well it is not even December and I already have the treats done for my sons’ classmates. Making treats for the class are one of my favorite things to do. I let my boys pick out what they wanted to give their classmates. My 6 year old son picked out these bright colored candy canes.


I decided to make some sleds using the candy canes as the runners. Here is a look at the cuts I used. I imported them into SCAL (Sure Cuts Alot). The sled is from SVG Cuts ~ Rockin Around the Christmas Tree SVG Collection. I used the base of the sled and also created a shadow version of it in SCAL. I imported the Stampable from the Holiday Tradition stamps from Punkin’ Patch Stamps.



I cut the shadow of the sled using some silver holographic paper. It had snowflakes and worked perfect!


Next I cut the sleds, tags and stampables. I used three different colors to match the candy canes.
I also picked out three different colors of twine from the Twinery.


I stamped my stampables using my Punkin’ Patch Stamps. I always cut extra just incase I mess up. Still mastering the art of stamping.

Next apply the stampables to the tags and attach the tags to the sled using the twine. Attach the sled to the sled base.


Next attach two candy canes to the bottom of each sled. I used wide packing tape to attach.

Punkin’ Patch Stamps is having a Cyber Monday Sale -Save 40% on your entire purchase and get FREE shipping if you buy two or more sets of stamps ~ Expires midnight Monday.

Stop back soon to check out what I did for my other son’s treats!

Father's Day

With Father's Day approaching I whipped up a Father's Day card for my son's godfather. I used the Candy Bar Wrapper that was offered on the SVG Cuts Blog. You can grab it here if you don't already have it.

I also used the title from SVG Cuts - another freebie from 6/16/10. Finished it off with some twine from The Twinery.

I inserted a large candy bar and a gift card.

Stop back on Thursday for a few red white & blue projects for Creative Charms.

Butterfly BDay Card

Made a quick Birthday Card for a friend of our family. I started with the Premium Pop-Cards SVG Kit and cut the inside using AC Cardstock.


The outside is completed with the butterfly cut from SVG Cuts. It was a freebie from 3/31/10.


I finished off with some twine from the Twinery and Creative Charms Gradient Gems on the butterfly.
