The Witching Hour Layout

 
I created some this Layout Kit at the last Scrapbook Retreat getaway.  
The kit included everything to make this 2 page 12 x 12 Layout and one of the
ladies in attendance had a great time dressing it up with ribbons and bling.
Kits are a fun way to get your Creative juices flowing.
I will be posting Pictures of all of our past 
Retreats in a Slide Show.
Be sure and check out our Retreat Info page to see the FUN
My Retreat Friends are having!

Talk Time Tuesday! Fight Like a Girl!


Fight like a GIRL!!

October is National Breast Cancer Month, 
In Honor of all the women who have fought a brave battle this is for you!!

I know that many of you have been touched by cancer in one way or another. It may have been you or a loved one or someone you know. It is amazing to me that such an ugly disease can do some amazing things. I have seen it bring people together, families can grow stronger and show people just how strong they really are. In the fall of 2004 my mom had a double mastectomy. At the time you hear the news I think the only word you hear is CANCER... but after multiple doc visits and letting her make the choice. You realize that you need to be HER support. Prayers and love is one of the best medicines. As of today she has been cancer free since then! 

This talk time Tuesday is to tell us your story, or to give those who are facing this love and support!

One of the ladies on our DT is part of LUFP, please check it out!
Leave a comment and for every comment that is left I will DONATE a 1$ to breast cancer!
Happy Crafting and Thanks for your support!

Quick Tip Tuesday! Digital Card Making!

Hi Everybody!

It's Jenny from Crazy About Cricut, and it's my turn to share a Talk Time Tuesday Tip. Today I'd like to share about digital scrapping kits. They save time, and money!

We've recently bought a house, so I've had less time to craft, and also have had some of my crafting supplies packed away :( Crafting helps me keep my sanity, so as busy as we are getting ready to move, I still need to squeeze in some time to create.  I recently received a couple of digital kits from 4MyBabies, so I decided to make 4 cards in 30 minutes! Here's how I did it:


*First select the digital image you want to use.
*You can print how ever many you need to.
(Watermark on picture for designer's protection.)
*In this case, I needed 4, so I set up my printer to use 4 3.5" size images.

*When printing them, make sure to print them on cardstock so they are more sturdy.

*Cut out all four tags (easy to do since the tags have no complicated edges!).
*Add a brad, and some twine to each tag.
*Then take 4 card bases, 4 mats (with inked edges), and some pop dots to create 4 identical cards in 30 minutes (from start to finish!).
*Can leave to add a sentiment as needed. I added mine since I had some perfect ones from Pink By Design that I wanted to use.
That's it! There are many digital scraping companies out there, so I'd encourage you to go out and I'm sure you will find lots that you like! Start saving! Thanks, and make sure to keep checking back here on the Creative Cutter room for lots of ideas, contests, and tips :OD

Thanks for this great tip Jenny!

Cricut Design Challenge: Cricut Banner

Provo Craft was having a Design Challenge this week where they asked Cricut fans to design a
BANNER with the word CRICUT
on it for their upcoming HSN launch of the new Expression 2 on
September 26.
so
I hurried and pulled out some supplies and got busy last night around midnight.
at 4:00pm
I drove to the Provo Craft office and dropped it off.
It was so much fun to work on this project and if I had had another day I could have
really gone crazy-but here is my submission.
Wish me Luck.

Hugs~
