Spring Wreath

Inspired by the wreath on the Annual Inspirations Idea Book I created a Spring version. My customers really liked the red and white version and wanted a class. I will be teaching them how to make this wreath on Saturday from cutting all the pieces on their Cricuts to lots of hot glue assembly!

I chose some pretty colors for my flowers of pinks and yellow. The ladies will get to choose whatever colors they wish. I could see this wreath in red, white and blue perfect for the Fourth of July!

Hopefully, I will remember to take pictures of all the completed wreaths to show you the variations! Have a great week!

For Some Super Stars!

With a new semester starting at school this month, a couple of my students were going to be exiting the reading program. They have been working hard and it really showed in their recent testing. I wanted to give them a little gift made by myself as a token of their hard work. I came up with these Super Star bookmarks. It's just my way of saying that I'm proud of them and that I hope they will keep reading!

I used the stamp set included in the Artiste Cricut Collection and made the cuts on my Cricut as well making this a quick and simple project. The dove tail ribbons were embossed to give them more texture. I kept the colors fairly neutral so they could be given to boys & girls!

Base & Bling with Ariana

My project today was inspired by Jeanette Lynton's favorite things in the latest Idea Book {found inside the cover page}. She has chosen pieces from the new Base & Bling, but has them displayed so neatly in a folded card.

I wanted to re-create this project myself using some Ariana papers that happened to match the necklace image I chose from the Storyteller style sheet. Now the necklace is perfect to give as a gift, complete with elegant packaging.

More Halloween Mini's

I have some more Artbooking Halloween mini albums to share with you today. I just couldn't resist creating more of them! They are fun to embellish and the Cricut makes it so easy!

The first album is a spooky dark purple and black theme. The cover has a glittery haunted house and the pages are filled with spiders, skulls and rats! The second album has more of a cute, trick-or-treating theme, with bright colors and sweet candy treats!

Here is the second album~

 

{I had a question on the other mini album I did referring to the gray tombstone. It is actually found on the Artiste Cricut cartridge and I cut it at 1". It just happens to fit perfectly!}
