Grid stencils

I am loving my Grid Stencil that I bought at SENZ this year.  I find it great for doing layouts where I have no plan what to do with my photos and when I want to use lots of photos.  Of course I'm a big fan of block type layouts anyway, so its all good!

Check out what I've done so far...

First day of school

My 'wee' girls' first day of school last month.  Very exciting for everybody!

 

Happy birthday Justin!

Happy birthday to my babe! 

As always, trying to use up my washi and twine stash...

Balloons

Happy birthday to Melody turning 5 today! 

I made this card using balloons from Cricut cartridge 'Celebrations' and the phrase from 'Create a Critter'.  A bit of twine and washi tape and all done!

Camping

Here's a layout of us Camping at Easter at the beautiful Blue Lake in Rotorua.  Looking forward to summer camping this Christmas!

Scene and trees cut using Cricut cartridge 'Campin' Critters' and font using 'Life's a Beach'.  Check out other camping layouts and cards at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge.

Angry bird party

My 7 year-old wanted an Angry bird party - no surprises there....  I had such fun with doing the party!  Fairly simple stuff really and by adding some stickers to make cupcake toppers (and piggy apples!), I think it looked very Angry birdish.
