Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell Rock

Happy New Year's Eve Everyone!

At school, my daughter made the cutest Christmas gifts for us out of paint stir sticks.  The first is a snowman and the second has three jingle bells and a rock glued to it...jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell, rock!  I was super impressed with her 2nd grade teacher's creativeness on these.

What perfect way to scrapbook a "rock" page than with Rock Princess!  Jingle Bell phrases were welded on the gypsy using Gypsy Font.  All other cuts are from Rock Princess.  Some of the cuts came out too small, so for the whites of the eyes I used a white gel pen and for the lips I used a pink pen.  Paper is Recollections - Bright and Jolly.

Winter/Christmas Themed Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Winter/Christmas Blog Hop celebrating our favorite time of the year. This Blog Hop is hosted by Paulette, from Around the Block with Scrapalette.  Thank you Paulette for hosting!

You can start at the beginning of the hop at http://scrapalette.blogspot.com/

Here are my projects for the blog hop - I'm trying to focus on layouts these days because I am so far behind.  The first is a Christmas theme with Santa Claus.  The cuts (ornaments, tree with snow and Santa Claus title) are all from the Christmas Solutions cartridge.  I added Frosted Lace stickles to some of the snowy areas on the tree.  Paper is DCWV.

Next are winter themed.  On these next layouts, the paper had a lot of embellishment already so I kept the Cricut cuts to a minimum.

Snowman is from Smiley Cards and Winter Fun Title is from Winter Frolic.  Ice Angel title uses Gypsy Font Monogram.  All paper is from DCWV - I just love their paper stacks!

Thanks for hopping by, please be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win blog candy - it will be a surprise as I haven't had a chance to get to the store, but will go this weekend.  Of course, if you like my projects, I would love for you to also become a follower.

Cricut Circle Sisters Fall Blog Hop

Hi,

Welcome to our Fabulous Fall Blog Hop!  This is my first time participating in a blog hop and I'm super excited to have you here.  If you found this page from another spot and want to start from the beginning, please click here to start at Kristen's blog.  We have 23 very talented ladies in today's line up, so you'll want to be sure to check them all out.

Today I have two fall layouts to share with you.  The fall colors are some of my favorites!  Please click on the pictures to enlarge.

My first project is a one page layout using pictures from last year.  We took a trip to Ebert's Greenhouse Village. which is like a farm/greenhouse that has a ton of fun fall activities for the kids - including a bouncy house, face painting, pumpkin slingshot, hay rides, pumpkins, candy shop and more.  They even have these extremely large and beautiful mums.  Anywho, these are some of the pictures from that trip. 

 Paper - DCWV Amber Autumn
 Gypsy Font - Celebrate cut at 1" and welded on the gypsy
 Simply Charmed - boy and girl scarecrows at 3.5"
 Straight from the Nest - Fall cut at 1"
 Cotton Candy Stickles
 Pop Dots

My second project is a two page layout using pictures from 2 years ago.  We don't get many leaves in our yard, so my daughter and a neighbor girl collected leaves from one of our other neighbors to make this leaf pile to jump in.

 Paper - DCWV
 Stretch your Imagination - Trees at 8" & 10", Autumn title
 Creative Memories leaves punch

Thank you for stopping!  If you have time, please feel free to check out my gallery page for more projects.  I hope you enjoyed your visit.  Your next stop is Tammy's blog!
