MPC Totally Tags n' ATC's Using wire

Good morning, 

Suzanne of Cricut Crafting Grammy. We are back on Thursdays to explore different themes, elements, techniques or embellishments. This week we are using wire on our tags and ATC's. There is no restriction on what tools are used to create these tags or ATC's. It could be a die cut machine, punches, stamps, etc. The sky is the limit. However if the Design Team uses Digis or SVG's they will be from Paper Crafting World. As a side note, if you don't know what an ATC card is, we have a definition at the bottom of our post.

I hope you will join us each Thursday here at My Paper Crafting for 

Totally Tags n' ATC's.

I have recently taken two classes using Tim Holtz ink at my LSS so I decided it was time to use some of the techniques I had learned.  I added wire from my garage. 

                                                  

                                                                     

MPC challenge Any Cartridge that begins with "S"

This week at My Paper Crafting the challenge is to use any Cartridge that begins with "S".  

I ended up using two cartridges that started with "S" on my project-

Storybook and Shall We Dance 

This paper is from an old Stack called Once Upon a Time from DCWV which I have seen redone in the stores again.  The paper is very decorated and already had a title so  I used  the Storybook cartridge to add some fancy corners.  The crown and wand I found on the Cartridge Shall We Dance.

The first page of pictures are of my granddaughter Kenzie in dressup clothes.  

In the first pic she is helping with laundry.  What a cute Cinderella!  

In these pictures she is playing with her play house, cleaning and helping daddy wash the car.  

She is a beautiful princess to us.  

Please join us at My Paper Crafting  and use a Cricut cartridge for the challenge this week that starts with "S".  Then link up and join us.  Happy craftin!

Caught Red handed and more layouts

I knew the minute my daughter sent these pics of my granddaughter Katie I had the title for this page.  Instead of painting her hands she proceeded to paint her hands.  The paper is from the LSS and she was definitely caught red handed.  I used Mickey Font for the title.  

These are some of the pictures of my husband and I with new grandson Micah.

This adorable paper is from a Mambi Stack and the pictures are of my grandaughter Brittany.  

                             

Cricut title 

Also Mambi paper for this page.  Brittany and Katie eating their yummy cupcakes they made.  

Made a craft idea book with Canvas Corp

We got this really cute paper in at the LSS where I teach that is from Canvas Corp.  I love the Kraft paper and the chevron pattern.  Then to top it off it had a page of sentiments  about being crafty.  I covered a composition book with the chevron paper front and back and then cut out some of my favorite sentiments to decorate the front.  I also used a black pearl pen to draw some squiggles on it.  

I kept it nice and flat so there are not embellishments to knock off with a lot of use.  

More quick and simple layouts

This is my second post of layouts. When I go to crops I try to do  a lot of quick and simple layouts of pictures.  Otherwise I would never keep up with all my grandkids pics.  

These layouts are of my two granddaughters Katie and Brittany.  The first  two are more vintage looking Easter layouts 

I used Mickey Font for the title for this layout and red rick rack

Another Cricut title 

Layout with Mambi paper 

Used some leftover Prima paper to make these layouts

Quick and Simple Layouts I did at a crop

Here are some layouts I did recently at a crop. 

 The first is of my granddaughter Kenzie and I used ACY.  

For this one I used some Prima paper and I decorated it with a Prima doll stamps with a dress to match my granddaughter Kenzie's outfit.  

Kenzie again using Simple Stories paper.  Not sure where the second page is.  Guess I didn't get a picture of it.  

Easter layouts vintage style

Organized my craft room again.

My scrap room is always a work in progress but recently I did some serious revamping.  

This id the shelf as you walk in  the door.  Full of embellishments by category in these free white boxes a friend gives me.  They fit perfectly on the shelf.  I also use photo boxes for themes I need more room.  Above is ribbon in jars and Washi and twine.  

This is view from inside room back toward bookcase.  Above that is two ribbon racks and jars of flowers.  Behind it I have my daughters old changing table which acts as cutting station, cuttlebug storage and other items . My twine is now located in a spinning spice jar which really is perfect for it.  

Inside closet.  I took off door and use a chevron sheet to cover. 

Lots of misc. goodies in here.  

Jewelery container I keep lace and fancy trim  Hangs where ever I put it and has room on both sides. 

Embossing folders organized in three baskets by theme, type, size, etc.  I have two rings with samples of each.  

Cutting station and twine. 

Paper storage 

Beginning of Martha Stewart wall and more embellishments, brads, etc.  

Blue tub is for new items so they are handy then they get sorted into other containers later.  

Baskets on top right I used to put things in when I am working on a project or throw things there when done to put away.  Also home for lots of goodies in three tired basket, Xyron and small punches. 

Martha Stewart wall on Ikea Bygel rods 

I know I know I have a problem.  

Holiday ones are in boxes in closet.

My Ikea desk has a side piece but I am adding a board to it for my room.  The plastic container on the left is my cart full of Cricut handbooks, Under the desk top there is a  hidden space where I can set pages to dry.  Things like that.  I plan to pain the board soon but wanted to try it our first. 

This is main part of desk with Silhouette, tools, Stickles, buttons, etc. 

Things I need hands on 

Stamps, DVD, tv and my window to the outside world. 

My E2 amd  Imagine on my Ikea rolling cart.  Inside these drawers are mats, carts, stamp pads, scrap paper.  

Somehow didn't take pictures of two huge cabinets on last side of room.  One houses are home computer and printer.  The other my misc craft items, stamps, and all sorts of stuff.  

This is on other side of computer cabinet where I keep small stacks on a skinny Ikea shelf

Right outside my door we have a landing and there on this open shelf I keep projects I am working on for the Scrapbook store where I teach.  I the basket stand (which used to be for yarn) I keep more ribbon.  

This is bookshelf right outside door.  Here I keep Glimmer Mist, Cricut Magazines, and two shelves of idea books.  Plus paper for computer, including photo paper. 

And lastly my DT/class schedule box.  I labeled the DT's with a label maker and then write projects and erase as I finish them.  Really helps a lot to keep organized.
