I made a few cards using my Cosmo Cricket leftovers. The photos aren’t very clear (sorry).
I hope that you are all enjoying your summer! Does anyone have anything fantastic planned? I’d love to hear about your plans for the summer!
I’m still busy, busy…but not too busy to blog surf tonight! I’ll be stopping by to catch-up and say “Hi” to all of you on your blogs!
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a giveaway on my blog. My 300th post seems like a good enough excuse to give something away, don’t you think?
I love the Cosmo Cricket line, Early Bird; it speaks to me. When it speaks it says, “Make a Mini Cook Book Christie.”
That is exactly what I did. I made a Mini Cook Book. 6×6 inches of Cosmo Cricket Love and it can be YOURS for the low price of….er…I guess it would be ‘the low price of’ FREE (if you win it)!
This book has a pocket on each page to slip in recipe cards. I found the cutest FREE vintage recipe card download…check it out HERE.
If you want to win the Mini Cook Book, simply leave a comment on this post. I will randomly select a winner one week from today (Tuesday, June 16th).
Some photos of the inside pockets:

Please, PAY ATTENTION to the woman behind the curtain, she may be hiding behind the camera but she’s no Wizard of Oz.
I really like the idea of the family scrapbooker telling a little more about herself (or himself). My last couple of classes have been designed with the family historian in mind.
The class I taught at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique last February was called: A Little About Me
This month’s class is called: Happy Birthday to Me
So many times we tend to tell the story of our family but forget to mention ourselves. I’ve done it. Time and time again. Lately, I’ve felt inspired to share a little more about myself…maybe this is why I’ve nudged the ladies who take my classes in the same direction.
Getting tired of seeing my Halloween photos? It’s not even October yet and I’m getting a little tired of Halloween…maybe it’s because I threw a “Halloween” birthday party for Izabelle last weekend. I had Halloween coming out my ears!
I originally created these layouts to fill my shadow boxes. These are photos from last Halloween (the year that Daddy took the kids Halloween Costume shopping). Parker chose his scariest costume yet, the “Ghost Face” and my sweet little Izabelle decided to be a “Zombie”. Yikes! What happened to my little fairy princess?
When I set the following layouts on the table (preparing to put them in the shadow boxes), Izabelle informed me that last year’s costume was “too scary” to hang on the wall. I argued that she picked it out, therefore she’ll have to look at it in a frame for awhile (at least until I can create another layout). This year she’s going to be a werewolf, I don’t think that a werewolf is much tamer than a Zombie…
I used the Cosmo Cricket line to create the following simple layouts for Halloween 2007:
Here’s a closer look at some of the details:
I’m so inspired by this new Halloween paper! I know, I know…Halloween is still awhile off but I couldn’t help myself! I came up with this little diddy last Saturday night while cropping at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique (LOVE it there)!
