Little Bo Peep Scrapbook layout using Cricut Cindy Loo and Toy Story cartridges

Hello, friends!

Today I have a layout for you that I made using the Toy Story cartridge and the Cindy Loo cartridge. After my trip to Disneyland for the Close To My Heart convention, I remembered all of the projects I made using Disney cartridges. This one in particular stood out in my mind, because I made it using a Disney cartridge, but it does not scream Disney.

 'LAMB' was cut at 1 3/4" and 'little' was cut at 1".

I cut Bo out at 11 1/2" which is a great size to cut cut her. None of the pieces are very small at that size.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

This week's prize is the Be Young cartridge! The winner will be announced on Sunday, July 20th!

Happy Birthday flower card made using the Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge.

Hello, friends!

How was your weekend? I had a very busy one. I had to finish stuff for Hello Thursday, put scrapbook pages actually in books, and made dividers for my cuttlebug folder drawer and went to Ikea with Joy. You would not think this would have taken all weekend, but it totally did! Oh well, I like I was pretty productive!

Today I am using an older cartridge, but a really good one, Cindy Loo! I actually met it's name sake ont he Cricut cruise. I love how PC names cartridges after employees!

The paper is from Papertrey Ink and the ribbon is Close to My Heart.

I cut the flower out at 4".

The stamp is from Papertrey Ink and I used my cuttlebug to make this banner with a Spellbinders die.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, my friends! I look forward to seeing you all back here tomorrow!

Have a truly MAGICIAL Monday!

It's your day card made using Cindo Loo

Hello, friends!!

I hope you are all having a great week! Are you getting excited about Hello Thursday yet? I am looking forward to showing you all my projects I have made! That is one of the fun things about my job is showing you guys some of the fun things that can be done with the new cartridges!

Today's cartridge is made using Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge and a die from Papertrey Ink. I used my trusty cuttlebug which works perfectly with the dies. That is the good thing about the cuttlebug it pretty much works with most competitors dies as well. Which is great because who wants 10 different machines to cut dies from various places!

On to the card....

I cut the flower from Cindy Loo at 3".

I stamped the die cut with a stamp from papertrey ink.

The cardstock is Papertrey Ink and the ribbon is from SU!

Hi card made using my Cricut Imagine, Blossom, Cindy Loo, and Forever Young Cricut cartridges.

hello, friends!

Sorry this is being put up late! One of my favorite cousins is dying of brain cancer and I was up at the hospital all day yesterday with her. It is truly awful! She is only 36 and has 4 children under the age of 12. They expect her to pass today, so I am not sure if there will be a post tomorrow, over the weekend, or Monday. I will do my best though. There is so much family coming in and I really want to spend as much time with them as possible.

On to the card...

This card is made using the Blossom Imagine cartridge, Cindy Loo and the Forever Young cartridge. I love that I can use any cartridge with a pattern and texture Imagine cartridge! It just opens up so many possibilities!

I used papertrey ink lemon tart ribbon.

The flower is from Forever Young

I used the Cindy Loo cartridge for 'hi". Isn't that a fun font!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a terrific Thursday!

Little birdhouse card made with the *new* Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge

Hello, friends!!

Today I have a card I made using one of my favorites of the release...Cindy Loo! I really love this cartridge! I think it has lots of possibilities. It is not as girly as you might think either. I have a card that I made for tomorrow's post on Everyday Cricut that is VERY masculine. It just is a total must have cartridge....I think!



When I saw the images on this card I knew that this little Bavarian birdhouse would be cut by my cricut. Just something about it called to me. I cut this little birdhouse at 2". It is small, but not hard to assemble. I love when that happens!



I used a little pen work to add a little bit more.



The paper used is October Afternoon's 'Thrift Store'. This is totally my new favorite paper pack! The ribbon is SU! and the stamp is from Papertrey Ink(the set is called Inside Out Thank you...or something like that)



Thanks so much for stopping by!!

On to the card....

This card is made with the FUN & FABULOUS Cindy Loo cartridge. I cut the scalloped flower at 3" and then at 2 3/4". Then crumpled the paper. Crumpling give the flower depth and makes it much more 3D and realistic. Well, as realistic as a flower made with Cosmo Cricket paper can be ;-)

The leaves are also from this delish cartridge and are cut at 2 1/2".

The paper I used is the new Cosmo Cricket Delovely paper. The stamp and ribbon is from Papertrey Ink.
