Tilda Circles

I told you in an earlier post that I had a lot of catching up to do! This is the last of the cards I have to post for now.
The challenge that I wanted to complete was to find a way to use all of these circles that I had punched out and left over. I think it came out cute!

Skating

This is my Edwin and Tilda skating card. One of many I made on my weekend trip. Cutting around those skate blades by hand was a pain!

Hopscotch

Here is my Tilda playing hopscotch card. The "stone" is a dew drop and each of the hopscotch squares is seperate. Tilda is popped up off the card so she looks like she is jumping.

Tilda with Lilacs


Here is Tilda holding lilacs card. I couldn't, for the life of me, get a good picture of this card. It looks a bit fuzzy.

Edwin Card



Here is one of my newer cards. The card was cut using my Cricut "Wild Card" cartridge.




I think if I were to make this card again, I would make the inside of the card another color so you could see that the top layer is odd shaped.

My B-day

Saturday, May 2nd was birthday and National Scrapbook Day! My scrappin buddies surprised me with a cake for my b-day (among other WONDERFUL things!).

Left to right...me, Marilyn, and Paula. Newbie Julie is behind the camera taking the picture!

Thank you guys for making my birthday so great. You guys are the bestest!!!!

Cabanas

OK...so we have a theme crop each cycle of our scrapbook group. This cycle, the theme was Travel Destinations. Did we pick Paris? Did we pick Egypt? No! We picked Albuquerque! SO, after the last them crop, we had to bring it...and it had to be big! Well, if you are going to Albuquerque, you're most likely there for the balloon festival. So, that was what we did. This "special shape" balloon was the result of a hoola hoop, some plastic table clothes, some duck tape, and a blower motor. MacGuyver would be proud!


The ballon was 7 feet tall and about 7 feet wide too! It has a "wicker basket" on the bottom, though I am not sure if you can tell from this picture. Left to right are my table mates: Marilyn (tourist), Donna (passenger), Paula (zebra-launch coordinator), and me, Bonnie (the pilot).

We won the theme crop...we're two for two now!!!!

Sorry!

I need to apologize! It's been a while since I uploaded anything to my blog. It's been a bit crazy for a while. But, I do have lots of new things to upload. I will try to get to them this weekend.

Happy National Scrapbook Day!
