It's All About The Green - Day 2

Hi everyone. Welcome back to our second day of It's All About the Green Blog Hop. I want to thank everyone who stopped by yesterday and left all of those wonderful comments. I truly, truly appreciate them.

If you are here for the Blog Hop then you are in the right place! If you are just visiting my blog and would like to join in on all of the fun, please be sure to visit Kathryn to start at the beginning of the hop. You should have arrived here from Lissa's site. After your stay here you will be going to Tina's site.

For my project today, I created a scrapbook layout. This has to be one of the easiest layouts to do. If anyone has not made one before, then I highly recommend the 3 Birds - Life's a Party cartridge. It is one of the newer cartridges that was released. Inside, there are several pages that have layouts. All you need to do is choose the size layout you want. I chose to cut this one out at 8 inches (with the exception of the photo mats). It is super easy to layer and if you want to add embellishments, great. If not, you still have a wonderful foolproof layout.

(Be sure to check back. I will be showcasing some of the other layouts too.)


Supplies Used:
3 Birds - Life's a Party Cricut Cartridge
Recollections Paper - Green, Brown, Yellow
DCWV Safari Stack
Printed Ribbon

This is the second day of the hop, so if you missed any of the fun yesterday, scroll down to see the project I made. We have a terrific group of ladies who have put together some amazing projects to give you some inspiration in your crafting, so be sure to check out their projects as well.

And what a blog hop be without a little Blog Candy. I am giving away the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. Since this is a 2 day hop, you will have 2 chances to win. Leave me a comment below and let me know what you plan to make with this cartridge. I will let Random.org chose a winner on Tuesday. So everyone has until Monday night to leave me a comment. I would love it if you became a follower, but it is not necessary. Please leave a way for me to contact you.


Now on to Tina's site.

  3. Cute layout! I love the looks of the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. That's exactly what I would do if I won it, make some bouquets for Mother's Day. I already have part of my mother's gift planned & the second part is making & adding the flowers for the finishing touch. I love making my own flowers. TFS!

  7. I want this cartridge so bad - I think it's one of the nicest ones they have had out in a while. I love making mothers day cards but I think it is so versatile for everything with the flowers and leaves.

  20. I'd say Mothers Day cards, but I think I already have those planned out! As a high school teacher, students always "borrow" my pens. I think I'd make some layered, textured flowers, glimmer mist them up and crinkle them a little, then add them to some tops of pens so my students remember to return them! :)

  34. What a darling layout the cart you used sounds likey one I will have to invest in as I am layout challenged. I would use the mothers day card cart to make flowers and decorations through out the year. I have recently been moved to a new location in my office The medical records room to be exact and there are no decorations etc.. to make it welcoming that is what i would decorate with your blog candy offer. Thanks crossing my fingers.
