Baby scrapbook

Hello,
I'm in a hurry to get this photo album done for someone I work with, but finding it a challenge with my wrist in a splint. This is the first page of the book. I used Hello Kitty fort cartridge. The paper is K&C "Snuggle Bug" collection. I will post more as I get them done. Take care,
Kris
The colors are washed out in this picture, looks much better in person.=)

Magnolia colored with Copics

Hello my dear friends,
Today I have a tag that was colored with my Copics. I took 2 classes from Suzanne Dean and learned so much!! I haven't practiced much yet, but here is one try. I love this stamp and can't wait to buy it! I'm sorry that I didn't write the colors down that I used. I also used a white gel pen to highlight. Hope you like it. Have a great day!

3-D house

Good afternoon,
This is a project for a friends challenge to use Sweet Tooth Box cartridge. I made the house and let me tell you it was very difficu;t with one hand in a sling. I hope to try this again once my wrist is better. The paper is all from my never-ending stash. Enjoy your day and thanks for looking. Take care,
Kris

shoe card

Hello my friends,
Thanks for sticking with me even though I haven't been posting much lately. Things at my house are a little crazy right now. DS had some toe surgery and now has MRSA, so he is going for testing and specialist while I tried to do the right thing and I'm now in a splint. I was coming home from work and saw a girl getting beat, so I called 911 and tried to pull her away, but the guy didn't  like that idea. He ended up squeezing and twisting my wrist, which I let go for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks of still pain I went for X-ray and it is fractured. I now will spend at least 5-6 weeks in a splint. Boy, you never realize how much you use your non-dominat hand til you can't.

After a long few weeks I got together with a friend and actually made a card(2 of the same, to be exact). I used Graphic 45 paper the OZ collection,Crafty Secrets stamps and the Tie the knot Cricut cart for the shoe. The shoe also has glossy accents and stickles to add some shine with a little bling. Hope you like it. I hope to get some more crafting done, but it is a challenge in this brace. Have a great day.

Diaper tricycle

Hello my friends,
It has been crazy trying to get school stuff ready and fitting in a little travel, so I haven't been crafting at all. Tonight I have a diaper tricycle that I made for a friend at work. The idea came from my friend Paulette at scraplette.blogspot.com( around the block with Scraplette). This item uses diapers, receiving blankets, washclothes, bibs,socks and a bottle. It took some time to make, but I think she will love it. Thanks for the idea Paulette.

I hope everyone has had a great summer. I hope to get crafting again after the scrap expo I'm going to this weekend. Have a wonderful evening.

ps. isn't the dog cute riding it?

State pennant

Good morning my friends,
I made a state pennant for the Cricut Circle contest for the CHA road trip. The banner was cut from Birthday Bash cartridge,skyline is from Going Places and the clouds were from Hello Kitty. Above the clouds it says "Chicago-windy city". I really like how this turned out. I'm working on my magnets for the swap today-nothing like waiting til the last minute. Have a great day!

Calling card for Ohio

I finally sat down and did some crafting and it felt so good. I"m going to Ohio in a few weeks for a Cricut Circle meet-up with a travel theme. I made 100 calling cards using an old atlas as the backround. The suitcase is from Going Places Cartridge and then added a stickle Cricut and some bling on the side. Hope you like.
