Bath Time Layout

I am so sorry I have been so out of touch with Blogger lately. I am now homeschooling my son and it is taken so much of my free time. I do however try to do some scrapbooking while he is working and does not need my help. Here is a cute layout of my daughter Megan. In these photos she is 11 months old. She is 8 1/2 years old right now. Needless to say I am way behind on scrapping and I am trying to catch up on her baby album.

I used Close To My Heart's Animal Cookies Paper Packet. I just LOVE these papers for kid photos!! So much fun!! I also used some Jolee's 3-D foam stickers and my Cricut for the title.

Thanks for letting me share

SpongeBob Scrapbook Layout

I ordered the NEW SpongeBob Cricut cartridge and I just had to use it! Every year I take tons of swimming pictures over the summer and so I thought SpongeBob would work pretty well. I just loved the way this layout turned out. My oldest daughter helped me with this layout buy cutting out all of the characters. It took some time but the characters look great and make they layout really pop!

Not sure if you can see it very well, but for the "Just add Water" title piece I used CTMH Liquid Glass on the water portion of the title. It looks so real! Liquid Glass was also used on all of the characters eyes.

"Beach Fun" Scrapbook Title Piece

I created this fun piece using Imaginise - A Sore Thing. I bought this cute paper pad last year and haven't had a chance to play with it much. I also used Cricuts A Child's Year cartridge, chipboard, some hand stitching and of course my Stickles.

Enjoy,

July 4th Scrapbook Title

Here is another great project using the new Cricut cartridge "A Child's Year". This is roughly a 6x6 title piece for a scrapbook page. I used Close To My Heart's "Blue Ribbon" paper packet along with hand stitching, chipboard letters, inking and my stickles. Not only does this cartridge have great pictures but it has an entire alphabet and numbers!!

Enjoy,
