Made for Monday

Wow!! This week’s “Made for Monday” starts out with some exciting news!!! On Friday, I got 2 emails requesting projects for upcoming magazines!!!! O.M.Gosh!!! I am so excited!!! It’s been a long time since I’ve had a project requested (I NEED to actually submit to have projects picked up, go figure…) and to have 2 picked up is super exciting!!! I’m going to have a card published in the August Cricut Magazine, and another one in the Cricut Cards idea book!!! Yippee!!!! Both projects are using the Creative Memories Cricut Cartridges (between the 2 cards, I used all 3 cartridges) and Creative Memories papers as well… I can’t share those cards until September… But I can now share 2 cards that didn’t make the cut!

Here’s a teacher-themed-ish Thank You card… All patterned papers are Creative Memories, and I used the Cheerful Seasons Cartridge for the apple and the font…

Here’s a side view… You can see the apple stands out (I have a serious addiction to the Creative Memories foam squares!)

And here’s a Birthday Card… I used Creative Memories papers and the new Stork’s Delivery Cricut Cartridge:

Here’s a close-up so you can see the candles and the brackets are popped, yup… those foam squares again :)

I’ll share the other cards when I’m able to (but not til September). They’re going in the mail today!!! Did I mention that I’m excited?

Made for Monday!

Lots to share with you today :) We had our 3 day “Spring Fling” crop this weekend, and after 3 days, I *SHOULD* have lots to share… Although, most of what I worked on was the sorting of the HUGE bag of pictures that really just needed to be sorted… They are all now neatly packed into little plastic cases, and labeled so that I can find the photos I need!! Yeah!! It was a HUGE job, but man am I glad it’s done!!!

Here’s what else I did this weekend… The pics aren’t super, I will get better ones this afternoon I hope… It was so windy, that I did take them outside, but had to chase the layouts TWICE across half the yard ’cause the wind was blowing so hard… So, they’re just quick inside pics…

A two page layout, I actually cut and kitted this one for our Friday evening croppers :) I added the photos and date… The patterned papers are Cosmo Cricket, the QuicKutz font is Strawberry

This two page layout uses Little Yellow Bicycle patterned papers (which were hard to photograph inside ’cause they’re kinda shiny). The QuicKutz font is from Santa’s Workshop

This is a one page layout using Creative Imaginations paper, QuicKutz fonts are Heidi Swapp alphabet and Paper Doll

I forgot to take pictures, but there’s a set of 7 cards that were for Sunday’s croppers…

This adorable birdhouse… Made with Creative Memories papers and May Arts Ribbons (it’s for the May Arts Design Team Call…) More details will follow…

Oh, and I almost forgot… This frame, also Creative Memories and May Arts…

Whew!!! What a weekend!!! We also took the kids rollerskating on Saturday, and Kathryn to a friend’s birthday party on Sunday… I think I need a vacation to rest up from this past weekend!!!

The whole book will be completed in class, and you’ll just have to add photos when you’re done!!!  Here’s the cover… (ummm… yeah, that’s my newest QuicKutz… The Heidi Swapp
