Display Board

I've been using my Cricut Expressions
a lot lately
I wish we would've had something
 like this when I was in school
The displays I could've made!
As I  have said we are helping
a friend in his 
run for our city council
I made this board for his booth
at Frist Fridays and a local festival

I started by laying it all out to see how it looked
and to see how I could embellish it


As I was doing it I was updating and checking 
with Josh to get his input


I wasn't sure what I would
 put in the center of the side boards




The board changed a few times


The final layout b/4 gluing


In the center I used  the Twinkle Toes cartridge for the banners
that held names and to vote
the circle was cut from Plantin Schoolbook




I used photos 
of Josh out in the community
He volunteers a lot of his time
to different events


In Picasa I put text on the photos before printing



I cut out stars in metal contact paper
using Plantin Schoolbook
It really makes it stand out


The finished product

Teen Doodle Journal

My great- niece
 will be having
 her birthday this month
so I made her a doodle booklet

I explained in this posting
 how I did these booklets



Inside pages

















Back pages




Since she was very little
I have given her 
a charm for both
Christmas and her birthday
She told me this year
her bracelet is full...

So she gets another one!



I also stuck in
some stickers
and embellishments 
for her to make
 her own pages
I used Cricut
Twinkle Toes
Jasmine
and
DoodleCharms






Who made what weekends 180x180 final
