"A Cherry on Top Cricut Contest" Entry (Christie)

We just love pagemaps.com and their wonderful sketches and card maps, etc. Each month on their blog they post a great contest. This month's was a sketch called "Cherry on Top" and the winner receives a brand new Cricut machine valued at $219.99 donated by A Cherry on Top (hence the contest name). What a wonderful prize!
Here is the sketch and a pic of the wonderful prize:


Here is Christie's entry for this contest. Christie wanted to show how Marriage is a thing to show great appreciation for. She used flowers, embellies and ribbons to showcase all of the colors.

Scrapbook Related Crafts....


The girls made picture frames with me. And I had pre-made these chipboard albums with the ribbons and I let them choose all the embellies. I kept one for myself of course. :-)


These are the recent scrapbook crafts I have had the pleasure to make. I made the picture frame using papers, embellies from Etsy.com and a New Moon sticker (Thank you Mod-Podge for the sheen). So cute. I plan to replace the pic with one of Dani and I prepping for the New Moon premiere last year. But this cute pic of Dani and her BFF Alex was perfect for the saved shot for the blog.

Crop night....

Well, got 4 more pages done. Not a lot for a crop night but considering I had no real time to prepare for the crop and had to pack it all! and the fact that I did a ton of cleanup in my crop room and clean out of supplies, not bad. Hope to have time to crop before this weekend--want to enter the pagemaps.com blog contest this month so I have a shot at winning the cricut machine.

crop fun....March 12

Well, my sis and her friend Amy have planned a crop night at their church in Caroline County for the night of March 12th. I plan to carpool with my BFF Theresa and we will crop from 6:30pm Friday night till midnight....6hrs of pure scrapbooking! I need to plan. I have so many new pics to develop and plan for. We did enjoy hitting scrapdoodles in FBG and ACMoore last Saturday to prepare for the crop. I am ultra excited. I hope I can hit my goal of doing 12 layouts.....!!!Keep your fingers crossed for me. :-)

Layouts for inspiration


Cute little bunny I saw on Katie Bee's blog. She handmade this little cupid. So adorable. Makes me want to do more paper piecing.


With all the snow we got this winter--any of these 3 los would work.




I especially like the texture in this LO.
