Manly love

This is a page about how as you change certain meanings can change. Take the word "manly" for example. As shown in the pictures manly to me doesn't mean some one who drives a fast car and can bench press 300 lbs, it's kissing boo boos and putting on bandaids making it all better

Dad's we're NUTS about you!

The father's day gifts I made for my DH, FIL and my dad. The bags are from Plantin Schoolbook and I sized them in DS to be as big as possible with the square cut out of the middle. Chip (or is it Dale?) is from the mickey and friends cartridge as are the acorns. Font's were cut out with SCAL NUTS I'm pretty sure is 2peas airplane, but not sure about the other one. All the papers are digi freebies that I printed. I'm going to try and do a better job of writing down where I get things from as far as fonts and freebies go, SORRY!



The cards to match. I love this picture!!




The set side by side

teacher gifts

This jar is filled with Riesen and Smartie candies. Cut the apple from the Doodlecharms cricut cartridge and used the fiskars threading water punch for the scallop edge








These are the cards I made for them. I didn't have any thick lined paper so I scanned regular old notebook paper and printed it on my computer for the background. The apple from Doodlecharms again and A+ teacher is Plantin Schoolbook (roly poly, I think?). Threading water punch again on the bottom The second picture is the inside of the card. Scallop circle is from mini monograms. The gift card holder is a printable template that I traced in inkscape and cut out with SCAL.

vinyl names in my boys' room

I cut everything out with paper and cut a clear vinyl to go on the background. Font was cut using SCAL and tigger and pooh are from the pooh and friends criut cartridge.







My boys were SO excited when they came up into their rooms and saw them on the wall. I'm still going to do more on the rest of the walls eventually.

Forever Amore

A simple page featuring my wonderful DH and I. Wanted to keep this one very simple so that we would be the main focus. You can't really see in the picture but the letters are embossed with the distressed lines CB folder and the scallop is embossed with the swiss dots folder.

Me @ 23

This layout threw me completely out of my comfort zone. I was playing around in photoshop (still trying to figure everything out) and this is the photo I came up with. The papers aren't my usual style either. Liked the outcome though, it's just different. A little info about me to celebrate my birthday.

Birthday card made by my Mr.

My wonderful husband made me this card all by himself!! Didn't he do a great job?? He even used the cricut, CAD II, and colored in the stamps, how creative. I was seriously impressed. He's a keeper, huh?
