I scraplifted this layout from Holidays with the Cricut formaly Christmas with the Cricut. She used papers from Jllibean and the Paisley cartridge. I loved the colors and loved the titles. I knew I had to make this layout while the iron was hot.LOL But, I can't wait to order the papers and I can't wait for a sale on the cartridge.
Sooo, I used the paper I had that most closley resembled it, which was the Sugar Plum Series by Collage Press and I went hunting online for some mushroom svg files to use with Sure-Cuts-A-Lot Program.
I found the cutest mushrooms over at Southernbelle's SVG blog , very nice svgs over there by the way. While cutting and pieceing the mushrooms and arrangeing them on the layout I decided I needed a frog.
I found this prince of a frog on Yolie's blog, Just Yolie. Lots of cute svgs over there too. She's part of the
SCALSocia lConnectio n Yahoo group,
a great bunch of crafty (intuitve) people. They almost have a little ESP going on over there. LOL (inside joke). And need to thank Alicia from the group for helping me download the files.
I also used the scalop oval and flower svg file from Penny Duncan Creations, another wonderful person over at the SCAL SocialConnection Yahoo Group. The font I used was Yikes! from Dafont.com.
I think what I like most about the layout was using Kraft paper to shadow the images. I even tried my hand at the details on the photo mats with the ribbon tied ribbon and I used my fiskars edge punch on the other one.
I could use some more training on shadowing letters but I am pleased with the overall layout. But I know one thing.......
It takes a villiage to create a layout. LOL
