I love when an idea comes together even better than the original thought!

For this 6 x 8 layout, I used Close To My Heart Patterned Papers & Cardstock; except for the black lettering (have no idea where that paper came from).

I used the Chisel Marker Font (cut out with my Cricut) for the black lettering & all the images were cut out with my Cricut as well.

I used my Cricut to write out the word "I would" & to draw the journal lines in the pot. I also used CC Designs Purple Enamel Dots.

The photos on this layout were found on the world wide web.

Photo Sizes: 1.75 x 2.75

Back Story: At the beginning of this year, I decided to make 6 x 8 layouts for my Free Make 'n' Takes at my 12 hour crops for the 2020 year...but with a common theme.

Since many scrapbookers tend to scrapbook about their loved ones and not themselves, all my layouts throughout the year would prompt you to share stuff about yourself.

So, at the end of the year, if you attended all my crops...you would have a mini album all about you. If you weren't able to make one of my crops, I offered to make a kit for that person for a $5 charge.

Well, then the Covid-19 Pandemic happened & all my 12 hour crops at the Community Centre were cancelled. Now I am hosting my First Virtual Crop on NSD & offering to make up kits for the attendees to do on that day.

Panda Bear Cards

I made these two cards to play along with Jaded Blossom's Challenge to make a project with an Animal on it.

This was a quick and simple card that came together quite easily & I love that they are generic and can be used for any occasion. I really need to build up my card stash.

I used Jaded Blossom's Pandas are Awesome stamp set with CTMH's There are No Words stamp set for the heart stamp.

I used patterned papers from my CTMH 6 x 6 Sampler Stash with CTMH White Daisy cardstock. I used Jaded Blossom's Triangle Square Mat Die to make the fun backgrounds on the cards.

Brandi's Birthday Card

Last weekend my cousin, Brandi, "celebrated" her birthday. 

I type "celebrated" because with the Covid-19 Pandemic & our province still on lock down to straighten the curve...her birthday was "celebrated" in a very different self-isolating way.

I had so much fun making this card & I love how it turned out.

All the papers are from Doodlebug except for the card base...it is BoBunny Double Dot.

The Cupcake Birthday Sloth SVG is from Kadoodle Bug Designs. I used CTMH's Scalloped Border Punch, MFT's Scalloped Stitched Rectangle Die, Simon Says Scalloped Heart Die, My Creative Time's Stitched Banner Die, CTMH's Heart Dies, MFT's Scalloped Stitched Border Die & Stampin' Up's Label Punch.

I used CTMH's Fairytale Birthday Stamp Set for the Happy Birthday, CTMH's Birthday Hugs & Kisses Stamp Set for the inside sentiment and CTMH's You're Not Old Stamp Set to add small dots to the inside sentiment.

I used Doodlegbug, CC Designs & Your Next Stamp Enamel Hearts & Dots.
