Sista 2 Sista & Bro's Too Tumbler Swap

I recently committed to making a vinyl tumbler for one of my sistas or bro's in a tumbler swap share.  I received Wife 2 DJ as my partner.  Wife is a school nurse hence the nurse, the bandaids, and the stethscopes.  I did not meet my deadline to have my cup mailed to my partner and I wanted to do something extra. 

I created a two page layout for school.  I did not title it because I wasn't sure what photos she would use for the layout.  I hope she likes both.

The tumbler file was cut on MTC and I found the nurse file in the gallery.  The layout was created from the Cricut. 

I used the following carts:

Schoolhouse cut at 6.50 inches from My Community

School Bus cut at 5.00 inches from Stretch Your Imagination

All the paperdolls cut at 3.50 inches from Everyday Paper Dolls

Stop Sign cut at 5.00 inches from My Community

Platinum Scraps April Card Sketch

Our sketch this week over at  Platinum Scraps came from a very talented lady named Tamara.  Please visit her blog for other great sketches.  I made a birthday card for my daughter's boyfriend. Boy that word sounds so bad lol. Guess it's the old fashion in me.  The card is for his birthday.  He desires to be a chef.  He can burn pretty good for a youngster.

March Sponsor Paper

This week over at Platinum Scraps we were fortunate enough to have our very first sponsor gift the design team with a gift card for blog candy and paper for the team.  We each received paper from the American Crafts line, Blue Skies.  Each designer was able to create freely since this week was our Free For All (FFA). 

I completed three different projects; a 6 X 6 layout, a card, and a bookmark.  The paper created a real challenge for me in many ways.  First, each designer only received 6 X  12 inch pieces of paper.  I like to do layouts (12 X 12), that alone scared me.  Then I am truly afraid of patterned paper.  But all in all, I think my work was good based on the challenges.  Hope you like.
