Summertime

Summer? That sure went fast!  This weeks challenge at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog is to make a project about summer.  I have not made a scrapbook page in a while, so I thought it would be fun to print some wallet sized photos of this summer.  The photos are on mats from Elegant edges and embellished with cuts from April Showers,  Mickey & Friends, and 3 Birds on Parade.  The papers, gems, ribbons are from the Webster's Pages.

Springtime- tree, banner, cloud, "sunshine", bike
3 Birds on Parade- "Summer" tag, heart
Mickey & Friends- Mouse Head, sun
Elegant edges- mats

Peachy Keen Halloween and Fall Blog Hop

Welcome! You should have come from Vivienne's Blog.  If this is your first stop you might want to head off to the start, The Peachy Keen Blog, because you won't want to miss out on the Peachy Fun!

For my project, I updated my school themed banner frame to celebrate "Twick or Tweet" time. My die cut bird faces are from PK-134 Bird Faces and MORE!  The vampire bird has his 'fangs' that are just snips of paper added to the beak and he is standing in front of his spooky birdhouse from PK-132 Twick or Tweet Birdhouse. Keeping with the Halloween theme, the die cut pumpkins have adorable faces from PK-550 Pumpkin Faces.

Paper, tags, ribbons, and gems are from the Peachy Pick Kit Club

Aww, Birdy Witch is ready to Twick or Tweet. Sentiment
from PK-132 Twick or Tweet.  One of the pumpkins
seems a little frightened.  EEK, sentiment from PKSC-09.

Black widow spiders are holding the tags in place.


Die cuts from Cricut:
Birds- 3 Birds on Parade, Vampire 2.75 in, Witch 5.25 in

Peachy Sneak Peek!

I am just thrilled to share my projects made with the NEW Peachy Keen Stamps' June Stamp of the Month.  The June stamp collection is full of "peachy cuteness"- Fairies, Frogs, Faces, Birdies, Sentiments, Faces, and more.

Welcome to my house- I have this welcome sign on my front door.  Isn't this fairy and her birdy friend cute? The base of this project was found at the local dollar store.  The fairy stamp does have wings but I switched them out with some wings cut by an electric die cut machine. 

This 5 by 5 card shows the Turtle and one of the Sentiments in the June Stamp of the Month Kit. I colored the turtle with Copic markers and gave him a surfboard because he is "Turtley Tubular". 

Be sure to check out the Peachy Keen Blog for more sneak peeks along with all the designers' blogs. I know you are going to love this set and all of the add ons just as much as I do.

Two Snow Birds

This scrapbook page stars my little gals, they are my little snow birds ready to ski.  The paper dolls are from Everyday Paper dolls and have peachy keen stamps for their faces.  Ski jackets were dry embossed with my cuttlebug.  Everyday paper dolls cartridge plus embossing are the requirements for Emma's Throwback Thursday's Challenge which I be entering with this project.  Three Birds on Parade cartridge was used for the title and the snowflake journal spot. 

Baby, It's Cold

Cricut Circle Weekly Challenge #15: Feeling Frosty!  The challenge was to use the following materials: white paint, metal, and a snowflake cut on your project this week.  I used white paint mixed with glitter for the "snow" that Mr. Snowbird is standing on.  To incorporate the metal in the project, I dug out some metal ring tags for a place to journal my photos.  Snowflake cuts are surrounding Mr. Bird because it's cold outside.
