Train Birthday Accessories

May 6, 2013

     If you watched my last video you saw that I purchased the Cricut Beep Beep cartridge with the idea of making some embellishments for my nephew’s first birthday party.  
     The first thing I did was make a long train for his birthday package.  We bought him a sand and water table and the box was huge!  I wrapped it in plain blue wrapping paper and then attached the train as well as his birthday invite, which looked like a train ticket.  It worked perfectly.
     I don’t often make cards, but I figured having the cartridge gave me the perfect excuse to try it out.  This was the single train on the cartridge and the directions made it very easy to cut out.  I added some alphas that I had for his name and a rub-on for the number.  

     For the inside I then used my Stampin’ Up cup cake wheel on the side. I used the wheel guide my hubby bought me for Christmas, and I can see myself using wheels a ton more now that I have that.  I also some red stickles for the cherries on top of the cupcake because even a boy can have some fun!  

     Have you created anything for a theme birthday lately?

Ebay Circut Cartridge Haul

May 5, 2013

     I’ve been trying to keep a list of the Cricut cartridges that I think would be useful in my scrapbooking rather than buying and hoping I find a place to use it.  I recently found three of the ones on my list from the same seller at a great price.  They were all still new in package too…an added bonus when you use the Cricut Craft Room.  Have you had any good hauls recently?

National Scrapbook Day

May 5, 2013

     I did it!  I finally broke down and ordered myself a scraprack.  I’ve been looking at one for six months, or more, and with the free shipping…well…I caved.  
     I got the basic rack with three different types of pages.  I chose the double XL vertical, the fabulous four and the perfect five.  I assume that will get me started well since I already have everything sorted.  I obviously don’t have any pictures yet, but I’ll be sure to post some when I do.
     Hubby had to work today so I didn’t get to do much scrapping, but I made an embellishment for my nephew’s birthday package and his card.  I’ll try to get a blog up tomorrow after the party so you can see.  I think they came out really cute.  
     I also have three new videos coming up for you too.  I just have to carve out some editing time.  Stay tuned!

The Artist

April 30, 2013

     The April 15th challenge for About A Boy was to use your boys artwork on a scrapbook page.  Michael had recently brought some Johnny Appleseed projects home so it was the perfect time for me to try this.  

     I usually make scrapbook pages using a variety of techniques, but I decided to approach this one differently.  Since it was his artwork I wanted it to look like he has created the page as well.  I reached WAAAYYY back in my childhood and created the page like I would have when I was in elementary school.  I don’t think you can tell from the picture, but it even has the owl hole in the tree that I think we all drew when we were younger.  
      I wouldn’t have had fancy embellishments as a youngster so I used my cricut to cut basic shapes.  It ended up turning out just like I wanted it too. 
     Michael’s original artwork that was the inspiration for my apple tree.
