>Officially Summer Blog Hop

Jun 21

>WOOOHOOO!!!!! It is summer!!!! Can you tell I am a little excited? I love summer because to me summer means fun and I love fun!

If you arrived from Meighen you are in the right place. If you just happened to drop by and would like to start at the beginning please start with Jill.

Here is my project. I made a Summer 2011 album. The pages are cereal boxes covered with paper. I love, love, love this paper and have been hanging on to it for awhile. I think this was the perfect project for it! I used DCWV and Bazzill. I did faux stitching on the photo mats which are chalked with Charcoal Cat’s Eye chalk and the cover is done with my much loved MTC. I used some loose leaf binder rings to hold it all together. There are Prima flowers with Ruby Red Liquid Pearls for the center. I finished off each photo mat with ribbon photo corners. Feel free to click on the photos to get a better idea of the details. I hope you enjoy and please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

The next and last stop on the hop is Gill. I hope you have enjoyed hopping along and picked up some inspiration. If you are not already a follower I would love to have you follow me. Thanks again and have a fantastic, crafty summer! 😀

If you get lost along the way here is the lineup.

>Lordy, Lordy Look Who’s 40 day 4

Apr 28

Posted by cardstockandcoffee

Wow, it is day 4 already! Time flies when you are having fun. So, you may have noticed from my selection of MTC files that I like wine. Well, I do like wine and I have tons of pictures to scrap from a trip to an awesome vineyard. Here is today’s project…

Here is a little bit better close up of the cut file. You get the words, bottles and labels. As always feel free to make it your own and change it up and please let me know what you think. Click here for the file.

I haven’t tried it yet but I am betting the bottles could be manipulated to resemble other types of bottles. I think if they were shorter and maybe fatter they could be beer bottles… can’t you just see a “99 bottles of beer” LO? I can totally see that. Maybe next road trip…. Have a great day!

>Lordy, Lordy Look Who’s 40 day 3

>Welcome to the 3rd day of my blog hop. Today I have a project and a cut file with an example… it is a bad example but it is an example… lol.

Here is my project first.

This is a real simple card but I like how it turned out. The roses are handmade and spritzed with Smoosh Spritz. I love this stuff! I made this card for my sister who has had a rough couple of days.

Ok and now the file… This file is for a wine gift tag. I have no idea what I was thinking when I sized it… maybe I was thinking that wine bottles are the same size as me? Who knows? Anyways… I resized it and it should be fine now. If not the file can be resized to suit your needs. Here is the file.

See what I mean the tag is as big as the bottle. I would have recut it but my mat is not sticky. I guess tomorrow I will be resticking it and tomorrow I have one of my favorite cut files for you. I am really looking forward to hearing what you think.

A big thank you to all my new followers and I am loving all the comments keep them coming and make sure if you have a blog you leave a link so I can follow you!

Make sure you check out all the other blogs in the hop you never know what you are going to find and there is some great blog candy out there.

>Yep, it’s me. Today is my 40th birthday. It seems hard to believe… I decided that it would be fun to have a blog hop to celebrate. This was my first time hosting a hop and I know I made mistakes but, the group of ladies I have in this hop have just been awesome. It has been a lot of fun for me and I hope for them as well.

Here is my project.

I have a hot date with my wonderful husband planned and I plan on taking pics to go on this LO.

Here is our line up. Some ladies will have a project each day so make sure you follow along all week and leave everyone some love. I will have a project each day and I will be giving away MTC cut files each day from now until May 2nd. All you have to do is leave a comment on each project. Today’s give away is the grape file from my LO. Follow this link to download the file and make sure you come back tomorrow for another file give away.
