Alice in Wonderland Mixed Pages Journal

More pictures of the Alice In Wonderland Mixed Pages journal on Etsy

Wouldn't this be fun to use as a Disney Vacation Travel Journal?

Alice in Wonderland Altered Book

The first couple pages in my Alice in Wonderland Altered book. Using items from my Creative Kits and Die cut sets on Etsy



I used the book page, flowers, ribbon and buttons from my kit.



I used the book page, lace, charm, safety pin, die cut, buttons, flowers, patterened paper and ticket from my kit.

Man, this was fun to make!

It's been a while...

Ok, so it's been a while. Life got in the way, my mom came to visit and I have been sick. Have you ever burst your eardrum? It's not fun...

I still managed to create though. I listed some new items in my Etsy store. I added more layouts to Last years Disney album. And I made some fun birthday/get well cupcake fairies. Here is a sample of fun stuff.

Cricut machine to go

I finally broke down and purchased the rolling tool bag from Harbor Freight for my Cricut Expression. It was on sale in the store for $14.99 and I used a coupon to get an additional 20% off. Making it cheap, cheap :) Here are some pictures of how I used it. The machine fit perfectly in the bag. I put a towel in the bottom underneath the machine for a bit of cushion. Inside are pockets perfect for the cords. I was able to fit 6 cartridges and their boxes on top of the machine. The outside pockets held glue, pens and other odds and ends. Overall the quality is good, the color matches the Cricut theme and and as along as you aren't pulling the bag down stairs with your machine inside, it should survive traveling nicely.

And I leave you with this...

Primas and Disney

I have been on a scrapbooking roll. I am working on Disney layouts from last year's trip. I was having a big creative block with 12x12 layouts until I reorganized my Prima flowers.



Now they are all sorted by color and when I am working on a specific color, I just grab the jar and there they all are. I put many of them into larger jars also. It makes it much easier to get them all out and back in again.

I also wanted to share some layouts I have finished, which have lots and lots of Prima Flowers.

Heart Shaped albums

I finished my heart shaped mini album. It was fun to work with a not so square shape for once.

You can see more on flickr. I also made one for my Etsy shop.
