Ok this card is for the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge . We had to use Pink, brown, ribbon, glitter and a stamped image. I don't have big stamp images from PKS but I do have the face stamps so i used that. I promise if i WIN, I will buy the nice big stamps ! :) Its a very simple card. Hmm.. just realized you can't see the glitter. The glitter is on the circles in the scallops. I am also entering this card in the Papertake Weekl y Challenge sketch 26. We just had to use the sketch on their blog. Like i said simple simple.. nothing as elaborate as the other ladies.

Cuttlebug Challenge #54

Image
Another Challenge! I kinda like this! The green spider paper is from a package I bought at the dollar spot in Target. The spiderweb i cut from PaperDoll Dress up Cricut Cartridge. I cuttlebugged the gree paper with the folder that has grass and a bird on it. I don't remember the name of the folder I just made sure I didn't emboss the bird. Hope you like! Take a look at the other entries at the Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot .

For this layout, I decided to use my cricut, stamps and brads. Hmmm now come to think of it, I should of used the cuttlebug too! Hope you enjoy the video. Please leave comments! Please turn off the player so you can hear the video! :) Hope you like my music! :) To turn off music scroll down to the bottom of the page and press pause or stop. FYI: It took me from 3:00 to about 10 pm to finish this! Of course during this time i got frustrated when to Home Depot.. Then came back to continue..

MY MOST FAVORITE LAYOUT!

Ok.. this double layout is the most elaborate i've done! Usually I do simple layouts. Mat the photo, do a title and a little journal. This time.. I added more stuff! I used EDPD cart! OHHH how i love that CART! Awesome! This layout is about our summer trip to Florida. The man lugging the ice chest? Fernando! With his grumpy face lugging that thing in the deep white sands! He's still in pain due to this! The girl is Maison! Did i mention how i love EDPD!? :) ENJOY!

ALBUM WAS COMPLETED!!

PHEW! Well, First album was created at the HOUSE OF FELKATZ! hehehe... Well, as I mentioned it was not really mine but my step daughters. She had to create a baby album for her science class. It had to be about her element "TUNGSTEN". It had to have baby photo, birth news... a poem.. family members.. career goals..etc. She did the album on her own. I only helped by making suggestions. I loaded paper on mat and I was the only one allowed to touch my "E"! She's a sophmore in HIgh school but still its my TOY! Anyway, I showed her how to use Sure Cuts ALot and the cuttlebug and she went to town with it! She picked out all the colors of clothing etc.. and did everything. I had suggested to use O wires for the book but she wanted to put only ribbon. Oh well... I think its AWESOME! She really worked hard on it! Please leave a comment.. she was would really like to hear what you think.. She was like your going to post it on YOUTUBE? I said yes.. don't worry your fu
