ME AND MY HUBBY


i just got this picture of me and my husband from my christmas party at work. i kinda like it. .

Funny thing is i always have my camera and i always take pictures of everyone but i hate getting my picture taken.

PORTFOLIO




here is a layout of my youngest nephew noah, what a little ham, the expressions this one makes are never ending , there was a bunch from different days and i remembered okieladybug made a filmstrip for her daughters myspace pictures. perfect for this we have happy , scared surprised,confused the next is struggling (hes just learning to pull himself up on the couch) and then we have his sexy look! all in all he is a natural. journaling says look out hollywood.......noah is a star! the two larger film strips are my design....but the idea was all okie's.http://www.mediafire.com/file/l4tyzezygzy/lg film strip.cut

BROADWAY




My newphew in his first christmas play at church. I did the title in the broadway font on scal . starring in a pretty stretched font and his name in kids font. wrote a little journal card that says" welcome to this evenings performance of "a Christmas Play" we hope you enjoy the show , Elisha will be signing autographed pictures after the performance. i typed that in the broadway font on word. the marquis was cut ina mahogany red and i used paper from tags bags boxes and more to cut out the lights on top and i pop dotted them. i really looks nice. i have to learn how to take better pictures for this. Any suggestions on how to make them look better?

WILD WEST













this is a 2 page layout done ,they went on a trip to their aunts , she lives on a huge lot of land where there are horses and the boys had their very first horseback ride! I know you cant see the pics very well but the pages turned out very cute.Font is old western or something like that, paper dolls for the cowboy, horse. george for the pond. i did the journaling on the barn roof in a silver glitter pen .okieladybug has a cut file for the cowboy boot, and i got the barn and wind thingy(i cant think of what its called)from cricut_cuts. they both have alot of awesome stuff. okie makes beautiful things and she makes me smile everytime i read her blog.! I have gotten lost on her website for hours .

TEEN FORMAL

This is a layout for my niece marisas teen formal at her church. i dont have any pics from the dance just the before, her with my mom and then pictures of her dad and her brothers. she is so pretty , and a sweetheart too.

SPONGEBOB SILLY PANTS


Here is mister silly ! Again he is in his underoos,spongebob and he is wearing his brothers spongebob socks up to his knees. so very very cute! i used cricut design studio to make sponge bob. (cut file below). And i got a new toy!!!!!! I got the sure cuts alot software! i had no idea what this was but i was looking at stuff on line one day and i kept seeing it so i looked into it , and i downloaded the trial version from craftsedge.com and when i got home from work i just played and played all night long, had the day off the following day so i had a blast! i love that software, you can cut any font you have on your computer and there are tons out there to download and add to your library for free! The font for "spongebob silly pants is.......(i gotta go look).....Jokerman.. thats it. It was my first cut with sure cuts alot and the cricut and it worked like a charm andi fell in love with it! not only can you download fonts you can download what is called dingbats ( pictures) and you can download and import svg cut files from other scrapbooker designers .. i am having a blast with this software. so anyway my spongebob leaves a little to be desired . but it works and i think he is pretty good..now i just have to see if i remember how to upload my cut file. http://www.mediafire.com/file/vnmmur51jqv/spongebob2.cut... i hope it works. of course i spent all morning making spongebob then i found spongbob dingbats! thats ok he's mine and i didn't wanna wait for the cartridge to come out .*******note to lori**** thank you for your comment. your jellyfish cut is on this page. i just dont feel right showing the layout cuz of the underoos.

Marisa and softball


this is a layout of one of my nieces softball games from last year. cartridges used are cursive 101,baseball, and sportsmania. i used cds to make the jersery personalized.

Silly Boy


My nephew Elisha - is definitly a silly boy, this has another page that goes with it but he is in his underoos and i dont feel right posting it, this kid just cracks me up. i believe the font is plantin schoolbook along with the squiggles.

Long Time

It has been a long time since i posted anything, i have been busy catching up on my scrapbooks. I was way behind. my sons book was about a half a year behind and with two vacations to put in it took awhile to catch up. was a year behind on my sister in laws book but now i am right where i wanna be.... well i am always where i want to be in my craft room! Right now i am fairly caught up and i am waiting for some glitter glue to dry so i thought i'd post some of my work. Since i am working on my sister in laws book i will post some of that......

Pier or Fishing Dock


this is a pier or a fishing dock , the sea lions are so cute but are they loud and smelly! we watched them sunbath for as long as we could stand the smell , the noise really wasn't too bad , you eventually try to mimic the sound they make .

Golden Gate Bridge



This is my attemp at the golden gate bridge . we went to visit my brother in vacaville and he took us on a tour of san francisco, i dont have the "my world" cart which has a good bridge so i tried to design one of my own, its not perfect but it'll do!

we had a great time and the view in person really is awesomhttp://www.mediafire.com/file/nnwatmzzmz0/golden gate bridge.cute !

whirlpool



This is a whirlpool cut file . We went to canada with some friends and took my son to the whirlpool, it was really cool , my first time seeing it too. its not the greatest but it worked . the rings are not welded, so you just glue them where you want http://www.mediafire.com/file/zyylnejntym/whirlpool.cut

Rub a Dub Dub 2 boys in a tub.


This is a page i did for my sister in laws scrapbook, i got my inspiration from okieladybug(the clawfoot bath tub and bubbles in the tub are her design) I Love It! i have a tub just like this great for bubble baths! anyway, i had these pics of my nephews from probably about a year ago, i am way way behind, and i wanted to use the tub, so i thought one day i"ll design some shower curtains! I love the way this turned out. there are a few pages to the cut file but it all comes together very nicely in the end. i was very proud of my curtains- it only took me all day to design them -it was well worth it cuz my niece kaylee told me that elisha ,my little nephew the one in the big bubble was running around gigglin and yelling I'm a bubble! (he's 2 yrs old and way too cute) ok - the shower curtain cut file has 6 mats i think its all done in george ,the rug and larger bubbles too, there is also a link for the rug and larger bubbles as well. if you want the bathtub visit okieladybugs blog she has a ton of wonderful cut files , she's a pro!
