Cuttin’ and Stampin’ DT Call 2014

Merry Christmas!!

 

 

Today's post is a showcase for the current Cuttin' and Stampin' DT Call. 

 

As many of you know, I am a SAHM mom, married to a Navy Veteran.  I LOVE being able to stay home and homeschool our youngest three (adopted) children.  We also have a teenager who attends the local high school, plus an older girl who is the mother of our BEAUTIFUL granddaughter.  My love with crafting started when I started creating lifebooks for the youngest children, to document their lives (individually) prior to becoming a wonderfully blessed part of our family.  While creating our oldest son's book, I was INSTANTLY hooked.  I had so much fun expressing my son's personality and the joy he was bringing to our lives in his book.  My husband witnessed the fun I was having and bought me my first Cricut....since then it has all been about crafting....what supplies do I want, what machines I have to HAVE.....You know the fever, right? 

 

Over the last two years, I have been fortunate to be a part of the following teams:

All that Stickles Blog (co-creator)

Red Carpet Studio Challenge Blog

Scraptastical Kreations Paper Piecing Designs

Get Inky Stamps (term ends Dec. 2013)

 

Guest DT

Miriam's Crafting Blog

 

 

 

A few of my favorite projects....

 

I created this banner for an All that Stickles Linky Party.  I had SO much fun with this.  I used Teresa Collins' new line, Masquerade Party, and the free Cricut cartridge (TC Chic & Scary) that was available in the Cricut Craft Room for Halloween.  (For the post, click HERE)

 

 

This is just one of my favorite cards.  It is just so warming, I think.  I used a Scaptastical Kreations' File and a Mojo Monday sketch for my inspiration.  (Click HERE for the full post)

 

 

This beautiful card was made with a family friend (my daughter's) who graduated from high school this past spring.  He is such a wonderful young man, and we wanted to be sure he knew how proud we were of him.  (For the full post, click HERE)

 

 

These were give card holders for my daughter's 1st grade teachers, as end of the year gifts.  She just loved giving them out.  :-)  (For full post, click HERE)

 

 

This layout was created with my little boy in mind.  He graduated from 4K and, as boys his age do, they LOVE robots.  I also used his favorite color, Red.  :-)  (Click HERE for the full post.)

 

I am looking forward to hearing from Cuttin' and Stampin' by January 17th.
