Theme Day Thursday!

It's Theme Day Thursday and this Thursday's Theme is Pink and shoes!  If you know me, those are 2 of my favorite things.  I'm all about pink and who doesn't love shoes!

Since September is Breast Cancer Awareness Month this is the theme I'm using.  We all know someone that is either currently being treated for Breast Cancer or is a Breast Cancer survivor.  I am not either, but have had a mammogram where they found a lump and was a mess until I found out it wasn't cancer.  Yes, I do go every year to get a mammogram and believe every one of us should.

I didn't have really anything in scraproom that was Breast Cancer related, but I do have a Cricut t-shirt that supports Breast Cancer Awareness.  So yes, I did take a picture of it and used it in my layout.  Figured it's got it all, it's Cricut and it's pink and it supports Breast Cancer Awareness!!

So for the shoes.  I used the Summer in Paris Cricut Cartridge for my shoes.  I them ran the shoes through my Cuttlebug and embossed them.  I used little pearls to add that little something extra, then decided they needed  a little bit more, so I added glitter.

I finally took the time to play in the Cricut Craft Room and was very impressed.  The lettering I used is the Cricut Letters that are free in the Cricut Craft Room.  I do love the welding feature, it worked out great.  The lettering also needed a little something extra, so I glittered them also.  I wish I would have thought of it before I attached them to the layout, but it worked out okay.

So finally, here is the complete layout.  I added a few ribbons that I did myself from some pinkish ribbon that I got in a prize package from my Design Team Sister Heather Lynn.  It did come in handy and she was so sweet to send me a box full of lots of goodies!  I am very lucky and proud to  be part of such an awesome Design Team!!

Yes, I am still working on my photography skills, but I do think it's getting better each time!  lol  I need to spend more time taking pictures and editing them, but I'd rather play in my scraproom.

Thank you so much for stopping by and talk to you soon.

It's My Imagine-ation Monday!

Well it's My Imagine-ation Monday and I made a simple card with my Cricut Imagine.

As everyone probably already knows I'm expecting my first grandchild the end of this month.  Don't know if it's a boy or a girl, they want to be surprised.  So I've been using a lot of yellows and greens for everything, including this card.

I used the Cricut Imagine Nursery Tails cartridge.  I print and cut both images and it's so awesome to be able to do both with one machine.  I do need to use this machine more, but still need some practice, so this card was good for a practice project.  I need to play with changing the colors and the papers, the possibilities are endless with the Imagine machine!

So here is the front of the card.  I even used my Cuttlebug and embossed the paper, haven't used it in ages!!

This is the inside of the card.  I used the same Nursery Tails cartridge for the bib and a Martha Stewart edge punch for the bottom.  The stamp is from Stampin' Up.

I bought an easel to try to see if it would help with my pictures and I think it does!  lol

Thank you so much for stopping by my all new blog and hope that you'll become a follower!!

Have a great week and talk to you soon!
