Pretty simple challenge

I used the letter S cut from the Letter Envy Cricut cartridge for my monogram.

Aud Sentiments Anything Goes and DT Call

Aud Sentiments is having a DT Call! 

If you want to be part of a very relaxed and fun dt, then go put your name in the hat for Aud Sentiments DT team.

The theme for the current challenge is Anything Goes so you can really show off your creativity.

Here is my dt card for this challenge.  We are sponsored by Wild Rose who provided the dt with some fun images.

I made a birthday card using one of the new Ellie images.

I can't wait to see your creations and don't forget to put DT or GDT after your name if you want to be part of the design team

Material Girl

Digi Doodle Shop is sponsoring the current challenge at Cupcake Craft Challenges.  The challenge is to use material on your project.  I used circles of material to make my flower.  Super easy and looks so pretty.  The image I used is 1800 Vintage Dress 6  which you can find HERE in the shop

Graduation Reception Invitations

My oldest is graduating from high school this year. 

I keep telling him I wish we were starting Kindergarten all over again. 

The school years just seemed to fly by.

He has grown into an amazing young man.  He will be graduating

in the top 5 of his class and he has received the Leadership Scholarship

to attend Truman State University. 

He plans to study Biology and then go on to medical school.

This is the invitation I made for his Senior reception.

We found an amazing photographer who really worked with Brad

to capture some great pictures of him. This picture happens to

be his favorite.

The numbers were cut using the Blackletter Cricut cartridge.

Sassy Studio Designs New Release Hop

Welcome to the next stop on the Sassy Studio Designs Release Party Hop.  If you got here from JOVAN'S blog then you are on the right track.  If not, please start at Sassy Studio Designs for all of the hop rules and info.  We are giving away 3 of the new releases so you don't want to miss out on your chance to win.

I used the new Renaissance Sassy for my project.  I have lots of pictures from the Kansas City Renaissance Festival that is held every fall.  This pretty lady looks great on my page.  As you can tell, I usually like clean and simple scrapbook layouts.  All of the diecuts are from the Black letter Cricut cartridge.

My favorite crafting tools are my Cricut Expression and my Cuttlebug.  (I couldn't pick just one)

I love using the Cricut because it is so simple to use and I love the ability to make the cuts the size that I want.  My cuttlebug is used frequently for my cards as well.  I like to use it for embossing and also with my Spellbinders dies.

I am having a hard time deciding what is my least favorite tool.   I wait to buy new tools until I read reviews from other users so I don't purchase something I won't like.  With that being said, I think  one item I am most disappointed in is my set of Nellie Snellen flower punches.  They do punch out the paper just fine but I don't think that the embossing is that detailed. 

Your next stop along the hop is

KAREN

Before you go, don't forget to leave me a comment.  One lucky winner will be drawn from all of the comments listed on the DT members bogs.

April Showers

The challenge this week at Digi Doodle Shop's Challenges is "April Showers"  so that means we want to see "water" in your project.    I chose to use the image Bird Watching from the Digi Doodle Shop.  I used glossy accents for the water in the bird bath.  If you want to join us in this challenge, simply create a project following the theme and link it up to the challenge blog.
