Fun at the Ballpark

 

Our oldest son recently took us to a Chicago Cubs game...and they won!  Both my son and husband love baseball and are on the same community baseball team for many years.  I used Family Album to make the layout and the baseball player from All Sports cartidge.

This layout is for a fun and games challenge over at BBTB2.  Come and join us.  Tfl.

Happy Fall

Hello again, it is time for another challenge at BBTB2, and it is to use pattern paper and your Cricut.  I made this fall  shaker card card.  I had some shiny leaves that I used in the shaker.  The sunflower comes from Close to my Heart, the pumpkin from Create a Critter,  the frame from Family Album and the wording from J Goode.  That's it.  This card was so fun to create.  Come and join the fun.  Tfl.

Summer Fun

Our challenge over at BBTB2 is about summer fun.  This summer,  you had to be more creative for your summer fun.  I made this layout of my son's family, who went to Michigan and had some beach fun.  The pics were so beautiful, that I had to use them for this challenge.

The title is an image from Miss Kate's Cuttables, the lighthouse from Down by the Sea and the waves are from Family Album.  Come and join the fun.  Tfl.

In the Stars!

Well, this is my project for the BBTB2 challenge for the next 2 weeks.  It's  all about the stars, three different sizes of them.  The images I used:

Star burst-Total Sports

Stars and Stripes-Independence Day

Star wheel-Family

The rest is just using the basic shapes in Design Space.  I hope everyone had a safe 4th of July.  It sure was noisy around here.  Good thing our dogs aren't terribly bothered by it.  We also had another hot day.  We spent 2 days at our camper, then came home.

Come and join the fun.  Tfl.

I am sharing another Christmas card.  This was made using the Quilted Christmas cartridge.  I used the wreath behind the carolers from the Family Album cartridge. The other shapes are from the basic shapes option.  I did some dry embossing on the square behind the wreath.  Tfl

Give Thanks

I went to the library on Monday to do this chalkboard project.   It was so much fun to do this crafting project with some friends.  We all had a different take on it.  I decided to add the vinyl lettering using my Cricut.  It is much better than my writing this in chalk. The wording is from the Family Album cartridge.  Tfl.

Show Off the Green!

Here it is, time for another challenge over at BBTB2, and it is all about the green.  I decided to make a layout and found this one in Family Album.  Come and join the fun!  Tfl.

Making a Splash!

Hello, time for another challenge over at BBTB2 and Michelle is our fabulous designer for the week.  We are challenged to make a project about swimming at the beach or pool.  Wow, is it hot here, this weekend.  I would love to be in the water ( highs way up in the 90's).  I used the Create a Friend cartridge for this cute little guy and the Family Album cartridge.  Come and join us for this fun challenge!  Tfl.

Are you ready for some football!

Amy is our design sister from BBTB2 with the challenge for this week.  Are you watching football?? We are Chicago Bear fans, don't know why, but we are, lol.  It is about football on the blog and we are to pick football related images.  My little football player is from Create a Friend, the background from Word Collage, the yard line from Family Album and the wording is from the Artbooking cartridge.  This is a simple card.  The background is using the write feature from the Explore.  Come and join the fun. tfl.

Back to School

Michelle is our talented designer from BBTB2 with the challenge of Back to School.  I bet you know some little ones that are headed back to school.  My layout is to display pictures of my grandchildren on their first day back to school.  Big Bird came from the Sesame Street Seasons cartridge and the layout is from Family Album.  The school came from My Community cartridge.  One of my grandsons was so excited, he was bouncing off the walls and wanted to leave for school way before it was time to go.  It was so funny.  Come and join the fun at BBTB2.  tfl.

Say Cheese!

Hello again, it is time for another challenge over at BBTB2 and L.B. is my design sister with the challenge for this week.  We are to use a camera in our card or project.  I found this camera in the Family Album cartridge and decided to use the layout that goes along with it.  Sorry about the glare on one of the pictures.  There are alot of camera images to choose from.  Come and join the fun!!!  tfl.

One Smart Cookie!

It is time for our challenge over at BBTB2 and our challenge was to use a cookie in our card or project.  I pondered this for a while, not sure what to do.  Then cookie monster popped into my head, lol.  I had some cute pictures of my grandchildren on their first day of school and so here it is.  Melanie is the one in charge of our challenge at BBTB2.  I can't wait to see what you come up with!! The cartridges used here were Sesame Street, Family Album and Just Because cards.  tfl.
