Wednesday Wanderings

Welcome to another edition of my Wednesday ramblings!  Its cold outside and we may be getting some rain soon.  Congrats to the 'Big Chief" I'm so glad the election is over, now lets all rally behind our leader and pray that our country can move forward.  With the Thanksgiving holiday only two weeks away I'm pressing to finish our family reunon album so I can share it on Thanksgiving Day.  So today I'm sharing another LO that will be included in that album, it is a LO from my DH's reunion that we hosted here.  One of my responsibilites was to set up a tour of the city.  We had a guided tour that took us pass Virginia Union University, Jackson Ward (historically black section in downtown), the state capital and as our tour ended we drove pass the monuments as well.  I used the cricut cartridge Plantin Schoolbook to cut the city diecut and quarter note for the title. 

Seminar Group

Today I'm sharing the second LO using pictures from the Aikido training seminar where our daughter was a participant. The sketch used was from the Sketch Inspiration site. I didn't include a title because it is placed in the book as part of the other LO using pictures during the seminar. One picture was suppose to be serious and the other picture of them goofing off. My daughter didn't change her expression from one picture to the other. Some of the kids were cut out because they move so fast when the seminar is over its hard for all the parents are trying to take picture! I cut (2) stars from the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge and the other one from the Wall Decor & More Cartridge.

Note Card

I created and posted this card as part of a cartridge exploration challenge over at Scraps of Color. It was a test of my patience as it was my first time cutting acetate and trying to get the multi-cut feature on the cricut set correctly! I didnt't own a cartridge with a vase so I used the fish bowl from EDPD. I like how it turned out and haven't decided who's going to be the lucky recipient of the card yet!

March Craft Madness

I created this LO and submitted it for a challenge over on Scraps of Color. I hadn't completed a two page LO in forever! It is a LO of the craft projects that DD completed during National Craft Month at Michaels. She painted on canvas, decorated eggs, painted on a t-shirt and made a ladybug flowerpot.
