Cricut Chalkboard Fonts Project Life School layout

Hello, friends!

Cricut Chalkboard Fonts Project Life School layout
Today I have a Project Life (Picture My Life) layout. This is the first time I have made a pocket layout. It was fun and made me think differently about scrapbooking. However, I still used my Cricut (to make a title card) because I just cannot make a project with out it. 

The Cricut cartridge that I used was Chalkboard Fonts. It was the ideal choice since the little cards I used have a chalkboard vibe. I also added a few embellishments to the title.

A few things to note about pocket scrapbooking:

1) It does NOT photograph well because of the glare from the pocket protector. I have seen this done very well on other blogs, but how they do this is beyond me. I took many many photos and this was the best one. Sigh...

2) I would never convert to this kind of scrapbooking as my sole way of scrapbooking. However, if you have a lot of photos to scrapbook, this is the answer! You can get a lot done in a small amount of time.

Cricut Artbooking First Day of 4th grade scrapbook layout.

Hello, friends!

Cricut Artbooking First Day of 4th grade scrapbook layout
As most of you know, I do not make a lot of scrapbook layouts as much as I used to. I really would like to make more, but I seem to never have the time. However, I really wanted to sit down and do a little scrapbooking the other day.

This scrapbook layout is made using the Artbooking cartridge and more new stuff from the Close To My Heart catalog. One of the really fun things I used, was a Picture My Life (widely known as Project Life) card. It is the one with the bus on it. Love it! These cards coordinate with most of our paper lines, so it is very easy to add them as embellishments, journaling sections, or titles. Check them out by clicking here ==> Picture My Life

Cricut Artbooking Teacher card

Hello, friends!

Cricut Artbooking Teacher card

Today I have a card I made for this week's Bitten By the Bug challenge, made using the Cricut Artbooking cartridge and some fabulous new things from the catalog. Something in particular I want to point out is the wonderful stamp set I used called Teacher Appreciation.

Something else to note about this project. It is made using the last of the five new colors. It is called Flaxen. I was not sure about it at first, but once I started using it I was sold.
