I just don't see the point in a one picture layout.  Most of my layouts have a 3 photo minimum. These were from Memorial Day Weekend last year at Chautauqua Lake.

I finally have a Valentine Card finished.  It seemed to take forever to make, I guess I just wasn't feeling it.  But anyway, I used one of my new Cricut Cartridges for the figures, A Childs Year.  The "LOVE" is from Create A Critter and the Large Heart from George.  The smaller heart was stamped from a CTMH stamp set.


Thanks for looking!

Beaver Hollow 3 Day Scrapbook Weekend

Still 3 weeks away from the big Scrapbook Weekend at Beaver Hollow and already I am freaking out about what to bring and what I am going to forget to bring!  Cricut, Gypsy, extention cord, table, paper, scissors, paper cutter, buttons, pens, pop dots, adhesive runners, glue sticks, computer, Kindle (the booklets for the Cricut Cartridges are all loaded on my Kindle) stickers, stamps, ink pads, pictures, ohhhh the list is endless! 

Do I stick to one subject (Christmas/Winter) so I have less papers to bring?  Will I get bored with Christmas pictures and wish I had something else to scrap? Will my extention cord be long enough? Will there be room for my little table to put my cricut on? 

Why does it have to be so stressful?  Does anyone have any suggestions how to make this easier to prepare for?

CCAA

I think it is time for me to Join CCAA (Cricut Cartridge Addicts Anonymous).  I have a few that have not yet been added to my list from this month.  This week I got  Sweethearts & Nifty Fifties (both at a great price on Ebay).

Christmas 2009

OK, this is not this past Christmas.  It is Christmas 2009.  I will be scrapping pictures from this past Christmas at the 3 day Crop at Beaver Hollow next month.  I can't wait!

This is the coolest thing ever for all us Cricut users!
Go to http://www.cricutsearch.com/ and tpye in what design you are looking for... and it brings you to the list of cartridges & the picture of the page in the booklet where you can find it!  If you have as many cartridges as I have, it can get overwhelming looking for a certain design.  You can do it from the Gypsy, but I think this way is much easier.  Give it a try!

Tis the Season Blog Hop


Thank you so much for stopping by my “Addicted to Scrapbooking” Blog as you make your way from Susan Pollock’s Blog through our ‘Tis The Season Blog Hop.

After making several Christmas Cards I decided to do something different. This little Gift bag was made with my Cricut / Gypsy using the Create A Critter cartridge for the Penguin & his Igloo and the Joys of the Season cartridge for the snowflakes. The tag is stamped.



Please check out the Christmas Cards posted below that I made last month also!  But don't forget to  hop on over to Iva Young’s Blog to see what she has created!

I welcome your "comments" and invite you to "follow" my Blog!
