Hello ladies! And maybe some gentlemen, too.
Today, I've got a great little LO that I did of my daughter and her Grampa enjoying their "o's" for breakfast.
I used my new Elegant Edges Cricut cart for the cool little loopy border. I used a sketch from PageMaps.com as well for the inspiration.
Now, for the fun part. You need to hop on over to Heather's Blog and see what good stuff she's got scrapped up for you.

DeleteI LOVE your basket and how you used your punches for the eggs and everything. This is definitely going into my "Have to do" pile . . . I've been trying to come up with a "new" idea for Easter baskets for nieces and nephews and for May Day baskets. So THANK YOU for the inspiration!

I really love the way you used the borders on your layout, very nicely done.
ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks Amber for letting people comment on my project here, I really tried to get my comments to work and I am still having problems, I really appreciate you letting me get comments on your blog.
DeleteCute layout! Like how you used your borders to bring focus to your pictures. I also wanted to say that I hope you can let Pollyza know that her Easter Basket was beautiful. I don't have the silhouette so I can't make it. Bummer.
ReplyDeletePolly's project was AMAZING. Those eggs were so sweet, and the basket is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGreat LO, Amber. Your little one is so cute, and the design shows off those super cute pictures.

Love the basket on your blog pazas! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great layout as well.
Polly's eggs and basket are too cool!
ReplyDeleteI really have an urge to break out the Cricut after seeing yours. Love that loopy border.
What a fun border to add to a LO with that cereal. I must check out some more of my Cricut borders for fun LO's. Amber, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletePolly, I love your basket and the easy instructions to make it. I tried last year to make them but didn't have the good instructions you provided on your blog. Thanks.
Its sooo hard to find where to comment on some of these blogs, lol! Anyway, I love the subject of your LO - great page! and couldn't comment on Polly's so will do it here....love the ideas and the technique for the eggs - so pretty
ReplyDeleteVery nice LO Amber, and what a fun border to use!
ReplyDeletePolly-What an amazing project-love the basket and the eggs. Hope this is where I'm suppose to leave this comment :)
Hi Amber! You do such nice work, of course it helps to have such a beautiful subject - yes her Grandpa is good looking too, but he's not who I was referring to!!...
ReplyDeleteI tried to comment @ pazas productions, but she's still having trouble, so I couldn't leave one there - too bad because I would have told her how impressed I am with her basket & eggs -beautiful!
I came over from CC to hop the blogs!
