Creative Escape Entry

The Cricut Circle had a contest partnered with Provo Craft and Bazzill Basics Paper Company where we created cards to donate to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Card had to be 4 1/4 by 5 inches and made only with Bazzill papers and PC products. Today is the final day they are accepting entries so I thought I would post what I mailed in!

The Glitter Incident

So it's been years since I've played with glitter and I am not the least clumsy person in the world. So, I open up my first tub of super fine glitter - it goes everywhere! Wish I had taken a photo then. On the floor, the chair, me, I'm totally shocked there was any left in the tub. But, a little glitter goes a long way and while I have a lot to learn, I had fun. The shimmery, shiny cards I like too!

Happy Birthday, Mom - Day Late!

Fell asleep before I could post this last night, but birthday card I made for my mom for her birthday! I did get inspiration on using the bling and tulle off the cc board, SandieOxley! I was so excited when I got French Manor and saw the dress form. My mom loves them, so I knew exactly what her birthday card would be!

October Layout and my space

I did this layout from one of the challenges on the message board and I really had fun doing it! I found a new use for cotton balls - cobwebs! I'm also in the process of revamping my craft area and once it's done I will post before and after shots!

Lightning Storm

In honor of the awesome lightning storm that we had going on tonight, I share with you one of my favorite lightning photos:

Some Photography

I have been a photographer for so many years - I just love it, love it, love it. Since having kids I've been mostly doing children's portraits (more photos of that to come) but have recently been reverting back to my nature photography. Just a few that I've taken lately. I can't just take a picture how it is - may as well change it up a bit as you will see in the images below.

A couple more flower shots - this orange one is my favorite:

And we can't forget the elusive Cricut - grasshopper...whatever. =)

Cricut Circle

I am so excited to be a part of the Cricut Circle! The first exclusive cart is out: French Manor and the message boards are up! I can't wait to see how this goes and am excited to see what the next cart will be! Here's a birthday card I made for a friend using French Manor.
