Krafting with Katie Today!

This weekend my granddaughter Katie came for a visit and she always wants to craft. I am lucky that both of my granddaughters like crafting since it is one of my favorite past times. Today Katie wanted to make a box so she looked through all the cartridges and decided on making the tool box from Sweet Treat Boxes. She quickly found out boxes are not easy! She decided to add some tools to her little box too using the Handy Man cartridge and added her name with the Alphalicious cartridge. Below the pictures are the measurements and cuts.

Tuesday Daily Project at Exploring Cricut

Welcome! Today I have a project over at my other blog Exploring Cricut. In keeping with our theme this week I created a ice cream treat box using the the Sweet Treats cartridge. This was a super simple project and I used scraps for the entire thing!  Nice when you can use stuff you already have!  I cut the box at 5.25 inches and I used the cuttlebug folders Divine Swirl and Houndstooth for the top of the cone.  I attached the handle with pink pearl brads.  These would be great for a birthday party with lots of good treats.  Be sure to enter our challenge over at Exploring Cricut this week too!

Sharing some birthday pages

I haven't had a lot of time to craft and it took a couple days for me to finish this layout, but been really busy. I have put off painting my bathroom so many times that I was really tired of looking at it so I have dug into it and today it should be finished! Finally!!! I hate painting and I realize I am getting to old to be getting up and down because I can hardly move the next day! I created this two page layout for some birthday pictures of my little one. I used the cartridges Fancy Frames, Create a Critter, Simply Charmed and Sweet Treats. I love using lots of cartridges, I feel like I get my moneys worth! Below the picture are the measurements and cuts. I am making another layout just like this but with a number 9 for my oldest angel girl. I plan on doing some crafting this weekend since my husband has volleyball tournaments to referee.
