Meet the KinderstampO Guest Design Team Blog Hop




Hello Everyone! I am so excited today to share with you my very exciting news! Of course I am sure that by my title you can  figure it out, That's right I am a Guest Design Team Member  for KinderstampO! I was so excited when I got the email inviting me to be a part of the very first guest design team  for KinderstampO. I have never done anything like this and am really looking forward to working with all the other wonderful and talented guest designers.




I created this card and matching book mark using my cricut Imagine and the kinderstampo friendship stamp set. I absolutely love the kinderstampO stamps!

Live:
I am a stay at home mother to three children 12 year old Samantha, 8 year old Chris, and 5 year old Austin. I live in Oregon about thirty minutes from Portland and have lived here most of my life. I have been married for ten years to a wonderful man  who is so supportive of my love for crafting. I am part of a local group called Artisans in the Grove. It is a group of local  Artists/Crafters who have gotten together to sell their handmade items at our local farmers market the first Wednesday of every month.

Craft:
I have been scrapbooking and card making for about four years now. I started to scrapbook when my Dad passed away as a way to preserve his memories. I love to make mini albums and altered items as well.  I love to learn new techniques whenever I can. I use my Cricut expression and Cricut Imagine for almost every project as I am totally addicted to using them both. I love using stamps that go with the things that I cut on my cricut machines!

Inspire:
I am inspired most by my family. I can never get enough pictures it seems! I love scrapping with friends and helping others to preserve their memories as well.  I love watching my family go through layouts that I have made and reminisce in the memories from the photos on the page it is such a great feeling!

There you have it some information about me and I hope that you will come back to visit often! Before you go be sure to stop by KinderstampO  facebook page here  https://www.facebook.com/pages/KinderStampO/106885809342683

Card Using Mini Monster cartridge

Lately I have been in the mood for fall for some reason. I love all the colors of fall so I thought that I would start making some Halloween cards. I made this really simple card using the Mini Monsters Cricut Cartridge. I love how simple this catridge is to use all of the layers are super easy to put together! I used my gypsy so I was able to make an entire set in no time. The pattern paper that I used is made by DCWV and the stamp is Studio G. Hope that you enjoy this card!

Happy Anniversary using Doodlecharms


Posted by PicasaI made this card for my cousin's parents 35th wedding anniversary that is the end of August. This card was very simple to make. I used paper scraps that I had left over from other projects to make it. The lace is some that I got from my grandma a long time ago and the charm is made by Blue Moon Beads. The stamp is from the stampin up set  Something to Celebrate. I cut the hearts from Doodlecharms and used a stampin up punch for the border. Hope that you like this simple card I will have more to share soon!

LOVE Mini album


Posted by PicasaI had so much fun making this mini album it is actually one of the first word books that I have made using my gypsy. I found a great video tutroial for this but can't seem to find it now and I can't remember the ladies name that did it sorry! I used cereal boxes and cut them with my cricut then covered it with various cardstock. I used my bind it all to bind the album and added some faux stitching and other embellishments to finish it. Hope that you like this album!

Layout using Kate's ABC

Posted by PicasaI made this 12x12 layout using Kate's ABC and my cricut expression machine. I love this cartridge it has so many adorable images on it. I used my gypsy as well to make sure that the images were sized the way that I wanted them to be. I used stickles on the flowers,the girl's dress and the butterflies as well to add a little sparkle. I also added faux stitching to the house,tree and flower pot. Hope that you enjoy this layout!
