Paper and other I used~ 

Paper is Just Dreamy 2 by Christy Lyle & Zoe Pearn by My Mind's Eye

Cream background cardstock from stash.

Peaches and Creme cotton twine

I used white crushed velvet flock by Doodlebug Design  over pink cardstock for my pig.

I printed 'NANA'S PICK' on copy paper, then applied repositional glue to the flag and placed it over the print and put it back in the printer to print on the flag. Removed from copy paper and placed on blue ribbon.

Scrapbooking is my favorite and I've been doing them for a while but I just started using Cricut to create my layouts.  I'm getting more and more comfortable only using the Cricut and I'm really loving it.  I have to say the more familiar you are with your carts the easier it comes together.  After joining My Cricut Craft Room I'm learning to love card making too...I just need more practice, I definitely get the inspiration here!

Thank you for stopping by and have a great Scrapbooking Saturday!
