Silhouette

Hi Everyone,
Wow Wednesday? Ummm what happened to Monday and Tuesday….Weekend is coming and I can’t wait. We’re heading to the lake all day Saturday…

I have been really having a great time working on layouts. At the beginning of the year I started doing one layout a month. I’m now up to one (if I’m lucky two) layouts a week.

I’ve been learning so much from Teri my SBFF (ok I know you are wondering what SBFF stands for, it’s scrappin’ best friends forever). Not only has she directed me to some great scrapbooking resources like Page Maps she’s also given me some great tricks on using my Silhouette. Teri has been such a huge inspiration to me and getting me to scrapbook more. Thanks T! You have to check out her layouts this week. Today’s layout is my favorite, or wait was it yesterday’s? No, no it was Monday’s…Well anyway head on over to Teri’s blog and check out all the great projects she’s been working on, she has even more coming this week…

Today’s layout is from Scott’s birthday last year. My favorite part about working on this layout was having Scott pick the title and getting involved with helping me. He decided to go with “The Good Life” as the title since we had his party last year at the lake.
Now I will leave you with some pictures of my layout…

Supplies:

Electronic Cutter: Silhouette SD

Pattern Paper: Seaside & 5&Dime (October Afternoon)

Cardstock: Black Bazzil Cardstock

Dies/punches: Ledger Die (Paper Trey Ink), 1-1/2″ Scallop Punch, Upper Crest Border Punch (Fiskar)

Have a great Wednesday!

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to pop in and wish all those DAD’s out there a Happy Father’s Day. Especially to my hubby (Scott), my dad, and my father-in-law,

Happy Father’s Day!

I have two more Father’s Day cards to share. These are the cards that Ethan and I gave to Scott….Both cards are Kristina Werner inspired cards.

This one is Ethan’s card to Scott, I used my new Silhouette to cut the card. “World’s Best” is so tiny and it cut out beautifully. I want to send out a huge thank you to Teri (my SBFF) for helping me yesterday…We chatted on the phone for a while and she helped me so much learn the machine and the software. Thank you Sis! Check out Teri’s blog for some great Silhouette info…She’s been having so much fun with her machine.

Have a great Sunday and a Happy Father’s Day
