Hey everyone 

Jessi here from My Life in Arts n Crafts! 

For my project today I used the Baby Block Unicorn 

I created an offset of .250 to get a seam allowance. I did design the project in Silhouette and then used my Cricut maker to cut it out. I LOVE my cricut maker. 

I used a fat quarter in a pretty galaxy print and some Avery dark transfer material. DONT mirror with this stuff this stuff you don't mirror I cant say that enough!! 

Now I did fight with my sewing machine a bit, I'm still trying to get the whole sewing thing down... apparently that doesn't come naturally to me like it did my mother 

I recommend pressing your fabric, sewing it inside out, pressing it again, than putting the transfer on then pressing from the back... I tried to turn mine after putting the transfer on and found I stitched through part.... but meh I'm giving it to a small child she won't care either way. I did add a ribbon loop also so that it has a finger handle or hang keys on it.

Baby Block Panda card

Happy Tuesday Guys!

Hope your week is off to a great start.

Today's card is made using the Cutie KaToodles - Baby Block Panda cutting file.

One of my dear friends recently had a baby boy and I just knew she would adore this cute image!

I love the fact that all the KBD images are really detailed and always have lots of different elements, so that if you want to keep the rest of the card relatively simple it is still a super cute and effective card.

Enjoy the rest of your week guys!!

Christmas Scrapbook Page

Hey Kadoodlers,

Good Evening, I hope you had a good week!! Did you get to see the Total Solar Eclipse on Monday?? I got to watch it in my front yard and oh it was so spectacular!! I happen to live in the town that had the longest duration of darkness. I had heard so many people talking about not taking pictures during the eclipse because it would ruin your camera so I didn't get any pics. : ( I wished I would have set it up and taken pics whenever it was dark. That diamond ring though was so beautiful!! : ) My town happens to be in the path for the next Total Solar Eclipse in 7 years, so maybe I can get some pics then. 

 To create this Christmas layout, I used a combination of files 

Cutie Katoodles Christmas Dream Bears & Cutie Katoodles-Winter Hot Cocoa Bear from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

I have a Canon Camera and my sister thinks I'm a photographer, so a couple of Christmases ago she wanted me to take pictures of her family. She saw on Pinterest Christmas photos of some children tying up their parents with lights and putting some duck tape on their mouths. So I recreated that scene for her and she loved it. So for tonight's scrapbook layout, I created that scene with some polar bears. I wanted it to look like they had tied up their parents with lights and duck taped their hands and mouths. I also wanted a title for the top and I found this one and thought it went perfectly with what was going on in the photo. 

I hope you enjoyed this Christmas layout. Come back next week for one more Scrapbook page.  : )

Giraffe Graduation Shaker Card

Hey Kadoodle Bug Fans,

         I hope you are having a great week so far!! I don't know about you guys, but last week was crazy busy for me. On Wednesday, I went on a Field trip with my niece bowling and to the park all day. On Thursday, I celebrated my birthday with my family at the park. We had barbeque because I was craving it and had ice cream cake. The cake was sort of a disaster because it was melted a little bit by the time we ate it. On Friday, my nieces only had a half a day of school, so I watched them till their mom got off work. On Saturday and Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day at two locations. I was beginning to wonder if I would finish the card on time, but I finally finished it. Yay!! : ). I used two different files from Kadoodle Bug Designs to create this card. I used Cutie Katoodles Bathtime Giraffe and Cutie Katoodles Graduation Owl.

My favorite parade is the Rose Bowl Parade that airs on New Years Day. I just love all the flowers and colors on the floats they always inspire me. So my inspiration for this graduation card was from the Rose Bowl Parade this year. UPS had a float with a giraffe on it wearing glasses re. When I saw that float I thought it was so cute, so I knew eventually I wanted to make a card with a giraffe wearing glasses. I decided to make a shaker card and put the giraffe on top.

Below is a complete list of supplies and materials used to complete this project:

Paper Piecing

KaDoodle Bug Files:  Cutie Katoodles Graduation Owl and Cutie Katoodles Bathtime Giraffe
Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art Cricut Cartridge: Congratulations Sentiment
Party Photo Props Cricut Design Space: Giraffe's Glasses

Cardstock:  Core'dinations from JoAnn's

Koala Scrapbook Border

Hey Kadoodle Bug Fans,

         I hope you are having a great week so far!! : ) It's been raining hard here the past few days and now all the surrounding towns are flooded. : ( Hopefully all the water goes down soon.

So, todays project is a vertical Koala Border with a Mother and a baby Koala. I used the Cutie Katoodles Koala from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

I just love Kadoodle Bug Designs Cutie Katoodle files, they are just so stinkin cute. I wanted to create something that was Mother related since Mother's Day is coming up, so I used the Koala file.  For the Koala bears, I used just the Koala file and cut the legs and arms facing one direction. I wanted it to look like the Koala was holding onto the tree. I did the same thing for the baby Koala but faced it the opposite way. The tree is from the same file as well I just increased the size. I made the sentiment in Cricut Design Space using a font called A Red Bucket.

Below is a complete list of supplies and materials used to complete this project:

Paper Piecing

KaDoodle Bug Files:  Cutie Katoodles Koala
Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge: Flower
Font: A Red Bucket

Cardstock:  Core'dinations & DCWV Pastels
