Happy New Year!!!

Hi Everyone, Sorry I have not posted lately but alot has been going on in my life.

I'm starting my new designs with my new toys I got for Christmas and will post soon.

Christmas Centerpiece

Here is a Centerpiece I did for a craft show last year. Used JOTS, Christmas carts. Terra Cotta pot was hand painted. Needless to say, it didn't last long at the show.

Spooky House Album

I created this album from the inspiration from an online gallery. I can't remember who it was but Thank You for inspiring me. All the details are described on the Custom Crops website from which I am a designer. Click you the link below for more details:

Little Girl and Cats

This card was inspired from the image on the A Child's Year cartridge. I just love cats and this image reminded me of a little girl looking through a window.

I designed this card in design studio using George and Basic Shapes.

Cartridges used: George and basic Shapes
A Child's year

Products used: Martha Stewart loop punches
Marths Stewart butterfly punch
Cat stamp
Stampology layered stamp
(imagine)
Various papers

I cut the girl at 3in, cats at 1.5 in. Used vellum to cover window. Doodled around the window.
Used cat stamp to emboss image.

Enjoy!

The Big 50 wordbook

I decided to make this wordbook for my husband's 50th birthday. I designed each page in design studio. I used DCWV Glitterstack for the paper. I then searched the internet for cute jokes about turning 50.

Cat in the Hat

Someone asked recently for a cutfile for the Cat in the Hat so I gave it a try. I used a clipart pic to design him.

I used George and Basic Shapes, Joys of the Season(for the body)and Mickey and Friends(for the hands and bow tie).

I interested in the cutfile just leave me a comment on this section and I will send it to you.

Thanks!!!

Praying Hands

Lots of ladies have asked for someone to design praying hands. I gave it try yesterday and here is what I came up with.

This was made using George. You will have to add the details of the hands on your own.

Leave me a comment if you would like the cutfile and I will send it to you. Enjoy!!

Calico Cat Mother's Day card

I wanted to try a decoupage card so I found this sheet of a calico cat that my mother loves and had to give it a try. No cricut on this card. The link to the site where I found the sheet is listed below. Enjoy!

Spring Butterfly

Here is a card I made for spring. I got the inspiration from a magazine. I stretched and welded the butterfly from Indie Art to a square from George. Used skittles and stickles. Used transparency paper and computer generated the sentiments and then adhered to back of butterfly. Hope you enjoy it!!

Angel Bear

I decided to do submit some of the designs to see if I would get any feedback and here is one I did for a friend. I used design studio for the bear and welded wings from Indie Art, added a oval from George, stickles and inking. Enjoy!!

Teddy Bear Card

I just loved the bear die cut from go-kreate, so instead of buying it I decided to design one myself. Here is my go at it: Teddy is made from George cart and Speaking of Fall:

Sorry the picture is not that great but I think he is cuter in person. Enjoy!

ScrappinDee's Creative Spot

Myspace Layouts

Gerbera Daisy valentine

First I want to thank ShirleyO from the cricut message board for this cutfile. Here is what I did with it and still alot of possibilities to make.

A Song for You

I had fun trying this new technique I saw out of a magazine. I used a stamp from HL that I fell in love with. Stamped it on acetate, then on the back side of the acetate I painted in the heart with acrylic paint. It looks much better in person. It's so hard to photograph acetate.

The poem is called A song for you and is written be Allison Chambers Coxsey. Here is what the inside says in case you can't read it.

If music lived within the stars, then they would sing for you, A haunting, lyrical melody, that dances' cross the blue. A symphony of sparkling light, To illuminate the sky,

Filling the heavens with music, the song would sweetly fly. Across the distant galaxy, the song would spread its wings, to serenade the heavens, with joy filled melody. If music lived with the stars, across the night sky blue, the beauty of its harmony, would be a song of you.

I thought this went so well with the stamp that says: The magic of music warms the heart and soothes the soul.

Thanks for looking!

Love pail with candy

This bouquet I made for someone to give to his wife for Valentine's Day. Homemade candies, and a little cricut cuts make for a beautiful bouquet.

Valentine Cards for hubby and daughter

These cards are totally scraplifted from the message boards. Thank you to the ladies that designed them. I just thought that they were so beautiful I had to try one for myself.

Valentine Bouquet

Here is a Valentine Bouquet I made for my family for the big day!! I used different cartridges for this bouquet. Enjoy!

Here is a couple of cards for any occassion!

I made these cards last night with the cricut design studio. The idea came from someone on the cricut message board who made a similar butterfly card. The forever love card was my idea with the hearts from Calligraphy Collection cartridge. These are simple cards to make if you have the design studio. Thanks for looking!!

Well we are stuck inside today!!

Today is a good scrapbooking, cardmaking day!! As you can see, I made the two cards below. We have lots of snow and ice on the ground and the kids have been home for the second day. LOL They're not too bad though, keeping busy with guitar hero and watching TV.

I'm sure many of you are doing the same thing. Let's just keep crafting!! Happy snow day!!

I'm on a Valentine marathon!!

I think I am on roll with making valentine cards. This card was made with CB swirls, and MS Punch, Letter are Mickey font and heart is Don Juan. the inside was computer generated with added sizzix hearts and MS heart punch.

This card was made in Cricut design Studio. I got a cutfile from someone on the message boards but it did not work so I made my own. I just loved these two kittys. xoxoxo is a stamp, wooden hearts embleishments. The inside swirls are sizzix as is the scalloped frame. Words are computer generated. Thanks for looking!!
