Swaps




This is a "man" swap that Tracie and I were in. Cute, huh?

I just joined a swap on my Yahoo group for ARROWS. Now I had to email them and say, WHAT? What do you mean arrows? So, they showed me samples of what it was. What do you think of my swap? The paper was done with the new CM Wishes and Dreams paper. I know it is kinda hard to tell, but it is SOO pretty. The element on the bottom right, that is open in the middle...it is not a mat. The other two are matted pieces. All of the pieces are triple matted except for the open one. What do you think? Will they like it?

Sketch Layout



This is a picture of a page that I did for a layout class that I am doing. It is an online class, and you have to do a new layout each week. This is the first time that I actually used ribbon on a page. That is the only non-CM materials on the page. The requirements were simple. Had to have ribbon, a bunny and three to four pics. I got all of it! Looks like the sample they had.

Using the NEW Creative Memories Puzzle Maker Punch

Okay, so I have been dying to find a way to use the new CM puzzle punch. What better chance then to use it on a kid friendly page? My son had to memorized twelve names for his Bible Study Class. So I, of course, save the paper with the list, to scrap it, because he remembered all the names and won a prize for it. Here is the plan....Christopher will write one name in each puzzle piece to highlight the "connection" of the 12 names. 12 pieces, 12 names. Not too bad, huh? I used the natural pages, with the True Serenity Paper Kit for this page. And, yes, I know it is not titled yet, but it is journaled! It was late at night and I was at an all day Crop for Cancer. So, I will use the Cricut to make a title some time soon.
