Boo.....

Sadly....my Spring Break has come to an end! I have a love/hate relationship with Spring Break. I love it because it is what it says, a break! I get to rest and rejuvenate before having to go back to school for the long haul of the rest of the year! I hate it because it gives me a little taste of summer and I want it to be here! I feel like I wish my life away these last few months of school!

I did get tons done this break though! I finished my Colorado Scrapbook (yay!!!) and I played with my Imagine. I really feel more confident using the printer part now, not just the cutting. And I have fell in love with that machine! It is so versatile and I can get way more creative with it!

I did make a few cards...I have a lot of Birthdays coming up this Spring, so I tried to get ahead! I made some super simple cards....my goal was cute, but easy, so I could get a lot done!

I used my Imagine to create this card. I printed the label using Imagine More Cards Cart on white cardstock, used pop up foam stickers to glue it down, added some cute orange twine and a few rhinestones to jazz it up. Put it all on blue cardstock and voila! Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy! Done!

I made several of these cards and will showcase them in the upcoming weeks. Thanks for looking!

Spring Break!!!!!

It is Spring Break people! Yay!!!! I love this time of year! Time off from school, starting to wind down, getting ready for summer! Spring Break always gives me a taste of summer and gets me ready to finish out the year strong!

Since I am on Spring Break, I am doing a lot of crafting! I thought I would take this time to really play with my Imagine. I love it! I made this adorable sign for our mantle to welcome Spring!

I used my Imagine print and cut capability to make this! The image came from Imagine More Cards Cart. I set it to full page and hit cut. Out this came! I just put in white cardstock! I added a grommet and ribbon to hang it from the mantle! So easy and so cute!!!!

Hope you enjoyed this post! I have many cards to show you as well! So stay tuned!

Last of the retreat pics!

This is my last post of the retreat layouts that I did! I promised I got more done, these were just my favorites!

This layout is of my sister who turns out, is a really good roller skater! I loved how this turned out!

Patterned paper is from 2 different stacks. The striped paper is a city stack from DCWV and the polka dotted is from Hobby Lobby travel stack. The roller skates were made using Nifty Fifties cart and cardstock. The title was cut using Hannah Montana cart and cardstock. I added a button for flair.

I love putting stripes and polka dots together....they work so well! I hope you enjoyed this layout!

Winter Park Layout

Hello! Today I am showing you a neat layout that I did of Winter Park. I love this paper and I just loved the scenery!

The pattern paper is from Hobby Lobby-Paper Studios Travel pack. Blue, Brown, yellow and green cardstock. The I love Exploring and discover stickers are from paper studios as well. The Moose sticker came from Winter Park. The title was cut using Lyrical Letters cart.

I hope you enjoyed this layout! I really love it! Thanks for looking!

Retreat Layouts-yes more...

Hello! I am still posting pics from my retreat....I just had the best time and got so much done!

One of my favorite things from the retreat is challenges! Our fearless leader and my dear friend AnnMarie comes up with challenges for us to do during the retreat to make it more interesting. For me, it totally gets me revved up and highly motivated!

This layout was one I did to complete the challenge. You can see the page idea on the right and my layout on the left. It doesn't look like it exactly, but I did use it for my inspiration!

I used paper from the Hobby Lobby, it was a cowboy pack, for my background and middle section. I used just regular brown and red cardstock for the title. I cut the rope using Toy Story Cart and the title using Cuttin' Up.

Hope you enjoyed my layout! Thanks for looking!

Fun Layout!

While we were on vacation this summer on our Family Reunion, there was a Square Dancing Activity for families. We of course joined in on the fun! We played the Hokey Pokey to start it out!

I used this adorable paper from Hobby Lobby called Cowboy. I love the Yee haw on it! I added a cowboy hat cut from Toy Story Cart for my journaling. I also used red cardstock for the matting and journal.

Watching my mom and dad Hokey Pokey was a memory I will always have! So much fun!

Thanks for looking!

Retreat Layout-as promised

I went on my retreat this past weekend and had a blast!!!!! I got 24 layouts done! That's 48 pages people! Not my best, but I had some issues this time! My Cricut and Gypsy were giving me fits, so I spent the majority of my time trying to fix them!

I wanted to spend the next few posts on some of the layouts that I did. I really liked how one of my first layouts of the 1st night turned out.

I used a Christmas paper actually for the patterned background, lime green and maroon cardstock for matting and title. FancyPantsDesign tag with an added button for my journal tag. Family Frenzy was cut using Storybook Cartridge. I used magic mesh to accentuate the title.

I really like the pics the best....these were all pictures from our family reunion this past summer. We had such a great time!
