Third page on Ruby minialbum: Playtime

Hello I have another page I have made for Ruby's album, this one is called Playtime and Ruby really loved to play with her ball and toys as well as running around the park with us chasing her. I started with an 8 x 8 page and then cut a frame from Elegant Edges. For the title I cut the phrase from Nate's ABC "Playtime" and then added 2 embellishments and some ribbon.

Second page of Ruby mini album: Doggy Treats

Hello hope you are having a nice Tuesday, I put together a second page for our Ruby album. I"m keeping the pages quite simple in this album for most of the pages but for some I might add some journaling, we'll see. For this page I cut an 8 x 8 piece of glittery paper for the base and cut out some snowflakes in another shade of grey. I used my Nate's ABC cartridge to cut out the Doggy Treats title and then added a Woof bone sticker. In this picture Ruby was "shaking paws" for her treats she loved to do that even in the snow. She also loved the snow (unlike Greg and I!).

First page of mini album for Ruby

Hello I have a page to show you today on a 8 x 8 mini album I'm making on Ruby. We miss Ruby so much she was such a beautiful dog so I wanted to do an album on her so we can look through it and think of all the wonderful times we spent with Ruby.

I've taken a few days to do this but got the first page done. I started with a pink page and then some very cute owl and tree patterned paper. I found this at Michaels and I knew it was perfect as it matches the owls on her collar. Ruby was a real fashionista and had many beautiful collars. I cut a black frame from Elegant Edges for the photo and then a strip of green card which I punched with a Martha Stewart flower edger punch. I had some pink sparkly chipboard letters in my stash so I used these for the title and also some chipboard flowers with a gemstone in the middle. Two little hearts on the frame finish it. I look forward to showing you more pages.

My Sunshine

Hello Happy Monday hope you had a nice weekend, we had a nice weekend with our friend visiting from Germany. I decided to do a page today on one of the photos taken over the weekend, both Greg and I like this photo of us at Red Mango enjoying a frozen yoghurt so I decided to use my new Artbooking cartridge to do a layout of it. I really like how I can now use Artbooking in the Cricut Craft room as I can resize any of the images to customize the layout. For this one I used a patterned piece as the background then resized the sunshine overlay to be 11 x 11 inches in a yellow glittery paper. I cut out the I love you bubble out of some yellow patterned paper and placed some blue underneath. I cut a tag and did my journaling in Publisher for his and also cut out the font in red. I used my Sweet Shoppe cartridge to cut out the little frozen yoghurt and added some glossy accents on the cherry to make it shiny. I added a butterfly sticker and some buttons to finish.
