Bunny's and Carrots

Good morning friends!  Thought I'd come back here today and show you the cute little favors I made for Easter.  The bunny's are filled with Hershey's miniatures and the carrots have M&M's in them.  The templates are from AR Creations and cut on my Cricut with SCAL. 

For some reason, though, I've been having problems cutting certain templates on my Cricut with SCAL.  The back of the bunny was one of those times....I had to make an additional piece to make it come together correctly.  I can't quite figure out why it is sometimes a problem.  So weird!

Anyway, that is it for today!  Have a wonderful day everyone!

Birthday Circus

Good morning friends! I am back today to show off a super cute and fun kit newly released at A-Manda Creation! This kit is called Birthday Circus and, as you can see, can be used for pages other than birthday. I've never taken my kids to a circus or used that theme for birthday's so I wasn't sure what I was going to do.  I decided the bright colors and fun embellies could be used for just about anything though so I found some photos of Kyler from preschool and scrapped those instead!

So above is the two pages next to each other. I didn't just flip the layout this time but instead used the same papers in a different way.  Then I used the same type of photo layout but less photos on the right side.  I really like the way these came out. 

Okay, so that is it for today.  I should be back to share more soon.  I haven't shown you the Easter goodies I made so maybe I'll be back with that.  Have a fantastic day friends!

I appreciate you...

Happy Friday friends!  Thank you for stopping in today!  The first and third Friday's of the month are always fun for me  because I get to share with you a card I made for the current Sketches by Carly challenge! 

This week we were able to use an image that we wanted to I chose the Lily of the Valley image that is in the May set from PaperTrey Ink.  Lily of the Valley are my favorite flowers so when I saw the set I knew I had to have it.  I haven't used it a whole lot but I still think it is lovely.  I was trying to go a little more clean and simple with this even though there are lots of layers.  I actually think I achieved that.  I really like this card!

This current sketch is sponsored by Di's Digital Downloads.  The winner will receive a $10 gift certificate.  You have one more week to make a card with this sketch, link it up to the SBC blog for a chance to win so you better get on it! 

Busy weekend at our house.  We have two events on Saturday plus cleaning in between those events for the event at our house on Sunday afternoon.  We do, however, have a nice weekend coming up--we'll be up into the 70's this weekend.  YAY!

Well, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Easter Layout

Good morning! I hope you had a great weekend!  We had a pretty nice weekend.  Monday was Kyler's birthday, too so lots of celebrating!

The sad part about Kyler's birthday is that late morning he developed a fever and it has held on since then.  Not sure how things are going today but I know there is no school today for sure and possibly tomorrow.  The bad part is...it is only a 3 day school week for them as they had Resurrection Monday off (remember he goes to a private Christian school) and Friday is their teacher planning day for the 4th quarter.  I think I will need to get his homework today, not that he is necessarily where he can do it but at least we'll have it at home.  A doctor trip may be in order as well today...we shall see. 

Okay, this page's layout is the Let's Get Sketchy challenge for this week.  It is another great sketch!

Well, you have a great day everyone!  See you soon!

Today is his birthday!
