Valentines 2010

I guess I'm a little late for posting Valentines Day stuff... or I'm really early for next year... either way.... ;)

I must say I totally scraplifted this LO from Scrapbook.com - I just can't find the original post to give the author credit. If I find her post again, I will update this ASAP.

For the border of this page I used the Martha Stewart Valentines border punch... love the pink on black!

I also did a paper rosette.. this time I scored it 1/8 increments.. I was a bit grumpy afterward because it was pretty tedious.... I've still got to play with the rosettes to find a way to to them thin enough for scrapbooks....


The font for this LO is from Lyrical Letters - using the Loop Dee Loo feature... one of my all time favorite fonts!


A few simple silver heart brads just added to the page.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy crafting!

Husband Caught Crafting!

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me... to SEE my hubby in my craft room. He has been known to create something to surprise me.. but this was a first for me.

He had to create a valentines box for a competition at his work. So he created..... an outhouse. Haha!!

"Caught" is from Lyrical Letters & "in the act" is also from Lyrical Letters using the Jumbo feature.

My embellishment pieces for this LO is all from Locker Talk. One thing I did this time that was different for me was using the Cricut Markers to highlight the embellishments.

The blue dots from on the paper wouldn't really have shown up with just the blade from my cricut, so I used my Gypsy to cut the paper out, and replaced the blade with a light blue cricut marker. I used my Gypsy and the hide contours feature to hide the outline of the paper and when I hit "cut" it only "colored" the lines on the paper.

I repeated the same steps on the glue bottle and ruler. I used a thin mini sharpie marker instead of a cricut marker this time.



Well this was a simple LO today, but if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy crafting!!
