Wicked



My fabulous friend, Jess, took me to see Wicked. I had heard the musical was AMAZING, but I wasn't sure a musical could be that great. It was beyond amazing!! We had a great time. It kept us sitting on the edge of our non remodeled seats. :)
Details: The background paper is from the NEW Bazzill glazed papers, Wallpaper: Raven. I fell in love the second I saw it and KNEW it had to be used for this layout! Wicked was cut out using the Opposites Attract Cricut cartridge. The green swirl paper was a Halloween paper scrap I have had for some time, not sure who it is by. Last, but not least, The "dot" of the I is from the NEW Spook Alley collection by Making Memories. Love it!!

Engaged



I had the joy of not only being the photographer for my sister's engagement photos, but I also made their Save the Dates. Now that the wedding has passed I decided to scrap their save the date and their announcement from our hometown paper.
Details: The background paper is from the DCWV Green Stack. The blue paper is Bluegrass by Bazzill and the yellow paper is Sunbeam by Bazzill. The ring is by Soft Spoken. The title was cut using Bluegrass paper and the Lyrical Letters Cricut cartridge.

Thanks



My sister gave me two really cute cards to thank me for my hard work on her wedding and being her maid (matron) of honor.
Details: Pattern paper is Foliage: Ginko Tonal by Autumn Leaves. The felt branch is by Prima. The green flowers are by Prima also. I believe they pink rhinestones are Hero Arts, I borrowed them from Jess.

Anniversary Card from Stephanie



I have had this beautiful Celtic paper for over two years, but nothing to use it for. We stopped going to my in-laws St. Patrick's day party when we moved 900+ miles away. So when I got this wonderful card from my friend Stephanie, I just knew I had to use this paper!!
Details: Brown paper is Java by Bazzill Basics. Celtic paper is Luck of the Draw by Reminisce. I used my white Uni-Ball pen to draw the lines. The title was cut out using the Black Chancery font and SCAL.
