Back to school 2014 2 Layouts

The kiddos headed back to school last week. I now have a 2nd grader and a 4th grader- I am amazed at how fast time flies!! I think my kids attend THE best school!
I used a couple of die cuts from the Silhouette store to whip up a couple of quick 12x12 scrapbook layouts.

 This is my layout once all of the paper was ready to be adhered. Cute enough layout, but I wanted to add a little more to it, step it up a bit more.

 This was after I added a few little touches. I added some Washi tape, a couple of things hand cut from the coordinating paper stack, buttons, a flower, a dew drop and some twine. I only need to add Hailey's photo and the year and her teacher's name will be added to the apple.

 I kept Hunter's layout more basic and less embellished. This is more suited towards him.

And here are my cuties!! Gosh, can you believe how much they have grown?? I keep telling them that they need to slow down...but they do not listen. LOL

Thanks for stopping by!

Until later~

First day of 1st grade 12x12 layout

My dear, sweet husband recently bought the Silhouette Cameo for me. I had been on the fence for quite a while about getting it since I have the Cricut and a bunch of cartridges. When I discovered that there is a way to cut my Cricut images with the Cameo I decided I really did *need* it. LOL
This was the first layout using cuts made with the Cameo.

The school is from Back to School- Too Cute by Jessica (I omitted the cute little face.)

Tab and Stars- Silhouette America Store

"1st Grade"- K-12 digital Cricut cartridge (I cut and off set with my Cameo)

Youtube has tutorials for cutting Cricut images with the Cameo, this is the one I used---->

Hailey was very happy with this layout. (She asked if I would do a layout next year of her second day of second grade. LOL) The green tab is a pull out. I will put all of her info for this school year there so it does not take up real estate on my page.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until later~
