All Smiles

Is there anything better than baby smiles and giggles? I think not. I only hope I can get some pictures of the baby smiling. Our first grand-daughter was always so serious when she was a baby. It was hard to get a picture of her smiling. Even when I thought I got one I would find out later, after getting the pictures printed, that I didn't get it.

Here's the layout.

I added the little butterfly from a Stampin' Up punch and added a sentiment to the middle of the banner.

Still more to come from this cartridge...

Sweet Girl Layout

Another layout from the Cricut First Few Years Cartridge. These layouts come together very quickly once you pick the papers you want to use. All the sizes are listed in the cartridge booklet.

 

I have a few more to make with purple and gray and then I'll switch to some other colors for our first grand-daughter. I might even go back and work on my son's baby album that's not finished yet. (he's only going to be 22!)

Here's a close-up of all the pieces in the lower corner. I added some pearls to the dress.

Come back for more layouts soon. Happy 4th everyone.

Announcing - The First Few Years

I have a layout posted over on the Cricut Fanatics Blog today. Please check out the full post over there.

I recently purchased the new Cricut cartridge The First Few Years and I am loving it. I started with the very first project and cut all the pieces exactly as the booklet suggested. Here is my finished layout.

Every piece on the layout was cut using The First Few Years cartridge except the butterflies which were made using a couple of punches by Stampin' Up.

I will have more layouts from this cartridge that I will be posting over the next few days. I hope you like lavender and gray. LOL.
