Hey everyone! I finally got a chance to get some pictures of a project I finished a while ago uploaded to my computer. One of my niece's who is also my Goddaughter was confirmed recently and I didn't want to just make a card for her. I had a couple of these cheap 6x6 scrapbook albums that I had bought a while ago that had kind of a fall design on the cover. I got this wonderful idea to take some of my Recollections Animal Printed Cardstock and cover the album with it. My niece's favorite color is bright/neon green so that is the main color I went with.
I decided to add some pink ribbon, a pink flower and a pink "S" which is the first letter of my niece's name to personalize it a little bit for her. I also added a handwritten note on the inside.
I added some faux stitching to the "S" with my white jelly roll pen to match the white stitching on the pink ribbon.
I added some stickles to the center of the flower and some diamond bling to the corners of the front cover.
I cut down and inserted scrapbook papers to the inside of the album so she can just stick her favorite pictures on the pages.
I really like how it turned out. I will be making a matching card to go with it and I'll take a picture of that too and post it later. I need to get this sent off to her soon! Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.
Hey everyone! Sorry I've been MIA since our last Thankful Thursday challenge, but I've been dealing with a lot at home. Anyway, it's that time again. Todays challenge is to make a project about your favorite family movie. This challenge was extremely difficult for me. Everytime I thought of a movie, I couldn't think of a project to make to go with it. I thought of lots of projects to make, but couldn't figure out how to incorporate a movie theme into it. Well, I called on some friends for help and finally came up with something. Thanks guys!
I went with the movie Cars and since my boys are all older and not really into Cars (the movies) anymore, I decided to make this project for a friends son. Surprise Gunnar! This is a decoration for him to hang on his bedroom door or wall. He loves Cars so I knew I had to make it for him. I made the sign in the shape of a highway sign and cut it out of foam board which is really hard to cut with scissors so I had to carefully use my X-acto knife. I used my Cricut to cut out his name and the word "room" and my eleven year old colored the words, McQueen, and Mater.
I used Mod Podge over the sign and words and used pop dots to pop up the Mater and McQueen. I also used ribbon to be able to hang it up. I hope he likes it. Ben and I put our hearts and souls into it. :)
Thanks for stopping by everyone and I hope you go back to Crazy About Cricut's blog and check out the other design team members projects and also make a project of your own and link it back to Crazy About Cricut's blog. Leave me a comment if you'd like and if you aren't a follower yet, I love getting new followers. Leave me a link back to your blog so I can follow you too! Have a great Thursday!
Hey everyone! Welcome back! It's that time again. Thankful Thursday Design Team Day. Today we were suppose to do a project with red, white and blue and since my original planned project failed miserably, I decided to throw together a quick card using a size I've never made before. This card fits in a business size envelope. I think it turned out pretty good. I still plan to finish up the failed project (I'm determined) and get it posted on here eventually so keep checking back. I also have a couple of other projects in the works that I will be posting soon. Thanks for stopping by.
