Exploring Cricut and More - Little Lady!

Hello!  I have another layout to share of my sweet puppy, Olivia. I am really trying to get my pictures cleaned up, but boy does time not always permit that.  She will be 2 in December and if feels like we just got her. These pics were ages 1-3 months.

I used both my Expression and Cameo to create these cute pages. It is so nice to be able to do that. I really feel like I'm getting the best of both worlds.

Exploring Cricut and More Back to School Challenge

Hi! Ready for a challenge! At Exploring Cricut and More the challenge is "Back To School". Any card, layout or project with a school theme. 

I cut everything by hand except for my title and dates. The Silhouette makes it so easy to choose any font and create a title from your computer. There are also a lot of freebie fonts to check out if you can't find one you like on your computer already. I use dafont.com, kevinandamanda.com or fontspace.com.

My oldest was sweet and sent me a pic from her 1st day of classes at college last year and I'm hoping she does the same for me this year too. 

Hope to see many of you enter the challenge! We can all use great inspiration and my DT sisters have some awesome ideas to share as well.

Thanks for stopping by!

Exploring Cricut and More - Birthday Girl Layout

Hello! I'm sharing today at Exploring Cricut and More and so glad you popped in:) I have a  layout to show you today using the fun papers from Echo Park Summer Bliss. I really like this paper pack. Oh geez, who am I kidding?? I really like all Lori Whitlock and Echo Park papers. My pup turned 1 in December and I created this layout to showcase that event. 

The papers are double sided making it super simple to coordinate, but sometimes hard to use if you have only 1 sheet in that pattern.The pink flower was cut from the floral 12 x 12 sheet. I just covered right over the hole. I cut the banner and flags from the pink paper as well adhering the green chevron right over that too. The labels are similar to Jillibean Soup in the Silhouette Store. I can't remember where I got these. In any event, I used a font on my computer that looked like an old typewriter for my journaling, printed first and then cut out with my Cameo.

I used Stickles on the corner of the banner along with twine. The love sentiment was a Silhouette freebie when I bought my machine. I printed on my computer first and then cut the circle out with the Cameo.

Birthday Girl was a font on my computer and I, again, printed first and then cut a circle with the Cameo. The heart was from the banner cut out. The pink flags were the same cut as the banner. I just resized them to make them longer and a little narrower.
