I am so far behind on updating my blogsite...I should apologize to all my wonderful ladies who come and participate in our class. We have lots of fun and they are all very talented as you can see in their artwork as they create their own personalities in these layouts. I have so enjoyed working with them and learning new tools, techniques, and just watching their creative spirits at work...I hope you enjoy the following layouts..feel free to leave a comment, we'd love to know what you think.
My pages are done with the Cricut and Surecutsalot. The new Surecutsalot 2 is absolutely wonderful and just makes me love using my Cricut even more...they have totally opened the door on what we can cut with our Cricut and save us a lot of money as we may never have to buy another cartridge unless it's something we really, really think we must have and don't want to make our own cutouts. Be sure to checkout the website and see what the new improvements are.
If you own a Cricut, here is an excellent software that allows you to cut
any True Type font with your machine, as well as many cliparts and svg files. Now with SCAL2, you can convert simple jpegs or bmps into a cut file, and it is so easy.
There are thousands of files out there for you to download for free or for a small fee that you purchase and then you can cut them with your Cricut. I must say I use this software for almost every layout I have done. I actually use it more than my cartridges....but don't tell Provocraft :)

Mosaic Layouts
Tonight we made Mosaic Layouts, choosing pictures to cut into 1" squares and placing them on grid paper to make these beautiful layouts...unfortunately our paper didn't arrive, but I was determined for us to make this project and so I created a grid and used my Cricut and Surecutsalot to create a template, so this way I could use any paper and make it into a Mosaic...worked pretty good as you can see from our pictures. Once again everyone did a wonderful job. I'd like to welcome Gloria to our class as she was able to attend. Gloria F....we miss you and Jane F, and Dannette...and Trisha and Sharri, we missed you this week.
Please be sure to leave a comment if you like these pages, I think the girls would appreciate it.
If you own a Cricut, here is an excellent software that allows you to cut
any True Type font with your machine, as well as many cliparts can now be
traced within the program turning them into an svg format, this feature alone
makes getting SCAL2 worth it as you will never need to purchase any carts.
There are thousands of files out there for you to download for free or for a
small fee that you can cut with your Cricut. I must say I use this software for
almost every layout I have done when using my Cricut. I actually use it more t
han cartridges....don't tell Provo :)

Down on the Farm
This is our class we did on June 30th...with 10 students! We had two young ladies attend for the first time and they did a very good job, I was really impressed with their talent, they truly were artistic. We also had a return visitor and so we were glad to have these ladies in our class. I hope you like their layouts and their paper piecing, chalking and color choices.
Our mat size we did some 4x4 mats using bandana paper, some made a journaling mat as well as some 4x6 mats...everyone does their own layout so they can vary...and we like them all.

Candle boxes
Below are some "Candle Storage" boxes that my Pastor made for Beulah campgrounds craft show/store. I had suggested letting me donate some of my vinyl cuttings to put on his boxes to see how they would look on them...what do you think? I like them alot...I think I like the beige vinyl the best.
I designed the cuts in Surecutsalot and used my Cricut to cut them. I love cutting with vinyl, it weeds better than cutting on paper.

Fourth of July Patriotic Layout
On the Fourth of July, my friend Toni and I decided that it was a great time to make another Patriotic Scrapbook Layout! Toni plans on taking a bunch of pictures of her son, and cropping just around his little face and placing them on the 1 inch squares and then some other pictures from the 4th to go on the mats.
We cut some 1 1/2 inch squares and some 1 inch squares to do the sides, and then we did double mats of red and blue, sizes were 4x6, 3 5/8 x 5 5/8 for the top mat, and of course I love using a corner rounder and so we rounded our mat corners...the title was done with glitter glue, Ruby! Hope you like!
