DT Project for Creative Kuts
 I have created this adorable Layout using Creative Kuts' file, My King.






 I just adore this file from Creative Kuts and it's going to be perfect for this coming Father's Day! It was so easy to cut out using my Cricut with the Scal program. Be sure to visit Creative Kuts so you can see all the cute svg files and digital stamps they have in store for you!

I hope that you have enjoyed my project as much as I enjoyed sharing it with you. I love receiving comments and new followers. It means so much to me! So please feel free to drop me a note and follow my blog for more inspiration, giveaways, and tips.

Around the House and Peachy Keen Challenge 18

Today's theme for today is Around the House and my challenge was to create something using items found around your house. So after searching my house for various items...here's what I came up with.



So what items did you find from my house? Let me help you out! I used a plain brown gift bag, white paint, a silver paperclip, and ribbon. Other items used were cardstock and patterned paper from Piggy Tales.

Of course I used items from Ginger Snap Scraps!
I used the super fun Fifties Stamp Set by
Also used the Peachy Keen Stamp Set
Retro Paper Dolls
and one of my favorite Cricut Cartridges Ever.... 


I am also submitting this project for Peechy Keen's Weekly Challenge so wish me luck! LOL!

Creative Kuts BAP

Pin It
Every week Creative Kuts offers up a free file for a BAP. What's a BAP? It's short for Build A Project.

This week our BAP is a really cute Graduation Cap Box. It will make the cutest gift card holder or party favors.

I am away in San Diego cropping at a retreat and I had to handcut it. The Cricut and Scal would have propably been my favored way to cut this but cutting by hand was really easy too.

 The Congrats Diecut on the top was cutout with my Cricut.

Want to get in on the next one? Go to Creative Kuts on Facebook and be sure to watch for the information on next week's BAP and upcoming ustreams.
