Lets Do It Again! Disney Pixar Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Disney Pixar Bog Hop


I am so excited that it is finally here!


I love Disney and everything to do with Disney!


Man, I even have a Mickey Tattoo on my shoulder.


First I would like to thank Melissa and Shawn for putting this wonderful Blog Hop together.



If you arrived from Amy's you are on the right track.


If you are a regular follower of my blog please go HERE , so that


you can see the entire hop from the beginning.





For my project I decided to do a layout using the Disney Toy Story Cartridge


and a SVG File of Bullseye from Mardenz



I will be adding pictures of the Magical Kingdom parade from our holiday in Florida
that we took last January.


I love the way this layout turned out, so I took lots of pictures! LOL!
Just so you could see all the great cuts.
I left the tops of the picture frames open, so I could just slide a picture in later.



Isn't Bullseye Cute?



I'm not to sure about how Woody turned out, but I guess he will just have to do.





Oh and we can't forget Hamm!


Now it's time to send you off.


Your next stop along the way is the amazing talented Madison.


But before you leave!


I do have some Blog Candy!



For one Lucky Winner.
Please leave a comment and a way for me to get in touch with you.

Cricut Cartridge Chaos Challenge # 14 Indie Art!

This weeks Cricut Cartridge Chaos Challenge is to use the Indie Art Cartridge!

I made these T-Shirts for four of my grand kids and put them in there Easter Baskets.

This is a picture of my Grandson Josh, I used Indie Art to make both the skull

and the title Trouble.




This is a picture of the kids baskets, each had a T- Shirt and lots of Chocolate!


This T-Shirt I used my i-rock to do all the bling...it took like 4 hours to do it
so I decided to use vinyl for the other three shirts.



I had the kids over for Easter today since my daughter Christy is off to Vegas tomorrow.

This is a picture of my Sons kids wearing their T-Shirts proudly for Nanny!


This is the back of the shirts.

The kids had a Easter hunt today a tea party and a heck of a good meal.

Now it is time for me to sit back, put my feet up and enjoy the

peace and quiet!

Thanks for stopping in,

Happy Easter to all of you.

Stay safe and have fun with your family's.

Ruff day? A Bit Of Exciting News! and Blog Candy!

About two weeks ago, I got a email from Kimberly over at My Craft Spot asking if I would join her Design Team!


She said she had stumbled upon my blog and liked what she saw and was just wondering if I would be interested.


Heck! Yea!




So I thought about it for a couple of days and decided to give it a try!



I am very happy and look forward to working with Kimberly and the new Design Team.


Today is the day she will be introducing us and we were all asked to post a project, using her wonderful New Stamp Sets, she had sent us!


I live in Canada...and we all know how slow the mail is these days, so I was very sad when I did not get them in time!



So I decided to make a Get Well Card, since this weeks challenge is just that!


Over at My Craft Spot


If you haven't checked out Challenge #4......make sure you do,


she has awesome challenges


and is


giving the winner of the challenge a set of beautiful Crinkle Ribbon!




The card measures 5X5 inches, I just love this size for a card. I used Camping Critters for the darling skunk and outhouse, cutting it at 3 inches

I placed the Skunk on a Action Wobble, to make it a little bit more fun

for the person who will be receiving it.

I used a Martha Stewart Punch for the flower border and then chalked the flowers and leafs.

All other supplies was just odds and ends from my never ending stash.

I also would like to let you know that Kimberly has some Blog Candy she will be giving away to one lucky visitor!


All you have to do is leave a comment and she will have Random.org pick the winner!


There are 7 blogs all together so if you visit each one and leave a comment at all of them


It will give you 7 chances to win.


So grab your coffee and have fun!


Go and get inspired!


Thanks for stopping by my blog and as always have a wonderful week.




I am also going to enter this card into the following Challenge

we took to celebrate my Hubbies Birthday in 2007.

This was just before I became very ill and had to quit smoking!

So I was four years younger!

and at least 30 pounds lighter!



The ship was made from a die cut and my Cuttlebug ,

I just cut it out a few times, so I could layer it.





I used paper tearing for the ocean, and chalked all the edges.


Doesn't it look real?


Makes me want to hop on a plane and find a beautiful beach some where!






Cartridges used in this layout were:



George and Basic Shapes



Pack Your Bags

Happy Easter! Spring Layout!





I hear that train a coming! A coming round the bend!

Oh My!

Where did that come from?

Now I am going to be singing that silly song all day long!



This week I have been working on a two page Easter layout.

I was going to wait until both pages were done to post , but I think it turned out so cute!

I just couldn't wait to finish the second page to show you.




For the train I cut so many colour combination...

to get it just right,

I could do a whole scrapbook on trains alone.

Anyone need a train? LOL!




When making this layout ,

I had a few challenges in mind and then of course it takes me so long to finish,

a few more have come up in the mean time.

Cartridges used for the layout were:

My Community

Simply Charmed

Storybook

George and Basic Shapes.




Challenges I will enter are:



Create a Spring or Easter Layout and include a bug.

I had the cutest brads that fit this challenge perfect!

Design Time Thursday Hippity Hop : Creative Cutter Room:
