Here is a walk through of my project:  

Mini Albums are one of my favorite crafts to create!  I find them so therapeutic.  This time, I used some die cuts to enhance the decorating.  The title is from Gypsy Wanderings and the frame is from Elegant Edges.  I also used some dies from Tim Holtz and  Bo Bunny, that I show you in the YouTube video.

The gorgeous paper is from PhotoPlay.  It's bright colours are a little outside the box for me, but I love the final result!

Die Cuttin Divas - Golf

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Welcome to a brand new challenge over at Die Cuttin Divas!  Today's challenge is GOLF.  I can't wait to show you what I created.

So, golf is not really my thing, but my husband and father in law enjoy it.  I used quite a few cartridges for this card.  The golfing teddy is from Create a Critter 2, the sun is from Doodlecharms and the grass is from Plantin Schoolbook.  I chose the background paper, because it reminded me of a pin-striped shirt.

The sentiment is from a retired Scrappy Moms stamp set called "For the Boys".  It's a fun set, with great sayings for masculine cards.

Who doesn't LOVE a sketch challenge?  This one is a fun one!  The central image is from "Twinkle Toes", which is a Cricut Cartridge I forget I own - It has SUCH cute images on it!  I think this little girl is ADORABLE!

The sentiment is from a long retired Whimsical Designs stamp set.  There are some VERY cute sentiments in this set, I need to pull it out more often!
