12 Tags of 2012 - April

This is my version of Tim Holtz April 12 Tags of 2012.

I didn't have anything except the ink for this one.  The tag was cut using the Sizzix "Tim Holtz Alterations die - Tag & Bookplates".  I didn't have the background stamp so I used a paper with writing.  I didn't have embossing folder so I used  2 Spellbinders Nestabilities, "Scalloped Ovals".  The branch was cut from Tim Holtz Alterations "Mini Branch & Leaf Set" die, I cut two and glued them end to end.  The bird was cut from Tim Holtz Alterations "Caged Bird" die.  I used several different ink colors.  It was fun trying to figure out what to use for this one.  Really liked using all the different inks and blending them together.

Birthday Banner

This is a banner that I made for a special little lady for her 6th birthday. She loves the books "Fancy Nancy", so she is having a "Fancy Nancy" birthday party.

The banner was made using the Cricut and the Gypsy, The banner triangle was cut using the "Mother's Day 2010" cartridge, the flowers were cut using the "Mother's Day Bouquet" cartridge, and the letters were cut using the "Hello Kitty Font" cartridge. Her name is also in the banner (wanted to keep it private). The images used was from the Making Memories "Fancy Nancy" diecut package. Can't wait for her to see it.

Senior Year Play layout

This is a 2-page layout I made for my GN, she is in a play called "The Diviner's". I don't know much about this play except it took place awhile ago so I used the lace and pearls on this one.

The font I used is from a Cricut's Gypsy Font. I used dimensional to pop the letters out. The center flower was made using the McGill's punch "Star Lily". The bottom of each photo mat was punched using the Martha Stewart border punch "Embroidery". I added ribbon and flat back pearls.

Box Double Mini Album

This is a mini album that I made following "creativecafegirl"'s youtube channel. She does some great work. I found this to be a very easy and fun mini to make. The paper was some paper that I found on clearance at Michaels and knew when I saw it that I had to make a mini for this paper.

This is the outside front of the mini. The paper is by K&Company called Susen Winget Speciality Paper.


This is on the inside of the outer flap. I did not decorate it until I decide what pictures I want to put in it.


This is one of the mini albums I used a butterfly theme inside and out.


This is the 2nd mini album. The outside is covered with dragonflies so I added a dragon fly to the inside.

This video shows more of the mini.
