4th of July Doodlebug Banner

Here is my new decoration for this 4th of July.   I created it using Doodlebug's 2014 4th of July paper line Patriotic Parade.  I loved how one of the sheets of paper created a perfect background for my lettering to go on.  My lettering, pinwheels, and firecrackers were cut using my Silhouette Cameo. the stars and firecracker are by Lori Whitlock.   So thankful for my FREEDOMS that I have because of the brave young men and women who protect our country and those who led the way before.  God Bless America.

Birthday Layout

Trying to catch up on my scrapbooking this summer.  Love Echo Park's Hip-Hip Hooray Collection.  Created this birthday layout for some birthday photos I am behind on.  Love the bright colors and how the paper all coordinates.  It also coordinates really well with Bo Bunny Double Dot.  I used a little of this for the accents.  All die cuts are done with my Silhouette Cameo.

Father's Day Gift

I saw this saying on Pinterest and immediately new I wanted to make one for my husband.  The project was so fun for the kids.  Plus, I got to experiment with the silhouette heat transfer material.  The directions underestimated the time to apply the heat transfer, but in the end I was happy with my product.  I ended up cutting 3 grandpas and 3 dads in all. When my friends saw them they wanted one too.  Love my husband! (sorry for the horrible lighting and pictures -- it was raining the day I had time to do this.)
