Survival Kit

Hello All,

I hope everyone is having a blessed Sunday. I would like to apologize for the long absence from my blog. Everyday life seem to throw so many curve balls in one direction I figure it would be okay to let a week go by without crafting and blogging. Then before I know it one week turned into two weeks, two weeks turned into three weeks and so on. I looked at the calendar and a month had past, wow....

I'm so glad to be back crafting!!! I promised myself I would take at least one hour a day to work on a project or post a blog, so now on to crafting.

I made this survival kit for my DD's teacher. I had the idea in my head and had all intentions on having it done for Teacher Appreciation Week....well that week came and went and the idea was still in my head. This weekend I was able to complete it and it will go to school Monday morning with my DD.

Challenge: Fantabulous Cricut "Teacher Feature"

Good Evening Everyone,

This layout has been sitting on my scrap table for over two weeks, I finally was able to vision what I wanted to do and put it together in the layout.

  Paper Craft Planet (Scrappy Sunday) is featuring Noell Hyman who runs Paperclipping.com. Noell provided videos for each of the challenges for the month of March.  There is still time to head over to PCP and check out the challenge -- play the video and make a page following the flexible template directions.

So here's what I came up with using a flexible template. 

Thanks for stopping by :-)

Cartridge:Create-a-Critter

Page: 50

I tried a couple of different things before I came up with  this layout.  I think it came out pretty cute in the end.  Once I print out some photos of me and my hubby taken on our anniversary I will use those. 

Thank you for stopping by :-)
Have a Blessed Day
