I was part of a tag swap with Kathy Files, aka The Paper Phenomenon! We had to do a summer theme and use an unconventional shape for our tag. I used the Summer Vacation seasonal cartridge for all the cuts. Love that cartridge! The camera was cut at 4.53" H. I used pop dots to separate the layers and add dimension. I have lots of stamps that are a travel theme so I just picked several different ones to support my theme. Hope you like it - and that the swap recipients like them! The back, where a favorite summer memory can be journaled. All 5, ready to be mailed out! These were a lot of fun to make! If you haven't checked out Kathy Files' blog, The Paper Phenomenon , you need to! It's great and so inspiring! Her projects are amazing!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

I've moved my crafting area from our bedroom to a corner of our dining area. Everything is organized so it is so convenient to create here! This is where I keep my plain, colored cardstock. The file folders on the left of the cart are where I keep my scraps. They are sorted by color. This is the best system that I have ever used to keep track of and use up my scraps! This is my Cricut, Gypsy and cuttlebug station!  Some of my many paper stacks! I had a paper rack that I stored these on in my bedroom, but there was no room for this out here so this was my next best option!  I have most of my stamping stuff stored in this area as well!  I love my new crafting space!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Provo Craft and Creative Memories have teamed up and they have 2 new Cricut Cartridges called Cheerful Seasons and Reminisce Accents!!  They are made to coordinate with the Cheerful and Reminisce Power Palettes!  They can be purchased on my CM website www.mycmsite.com/jennieb (just click the title of this post to be taken to my website.)  When you purchase from my website, items can be shipped directly to your home! I'm so excited about these cartridges!  When I get mine, I'll be sure to post some projects here for all to see!!
