The Crazy Dog & Cupcake Blog Hop

Welcome to our Crazy Dog and Cupcake Blog Hop! 
 
What started out as a random idea for a blog hop turned into a funny theme! We threw out some ideas on different "odd observances" in the up coming months ~ one being National Dog Day and the other Cupcake Day ~ everyone seemed to like these two themes so we put it to a vote! Who would have thought it would have turned into a tie?! So we voted once more ~ thanks to Pamela's creative thinking, she put the two together. What could be more fun than working with dogs and cupcakes! So sit back and enjoy the fun and creative projects the group has put together for you today!
 
No blog hop would be complete without some fun blog candy to win! Today we have a very gracious sponsor ~ KaDoodle Bug Designs is giving one lucky winner $15 in free files!  All you have to do to win the prize is:
 
1.  Comment on each stop along the way
2.  Like KaDoodle Bug Designs Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/kadoodlebugdesigns
Your line up today is:
Jennifer ~ http://creativecricutdesigns.blogspot.com (you are here)
Since the wonderful Melissa from KaDoodle Bug Designs has once again sponsored our blog hop I decided that I would use one of her files from my project today! I used Rufus the Puppy Collection which I have provided you with the link HERE in case you would like to purchase this cute little puppy (or win it).
 
 
 Here is our not so crazy boxer, Sasha!


I used My Creative Time's "Build a Banner" kit 
to create the banner.

 
I also used the Fiskar's grass border punch (my fav), thickers, twine, and the paper pack I used today is from The Paper Studio: Spoiled Rotten

 
 
 Here is the paper piecing from KaDoodle Bug Designs!! TOO CUTE

Fall Scrapbook Layout

Welcome back! I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend with family and friends.
 
I actually created this layout last week but have been so busy with the holiday and getting the kids ready to go back to school I didn't have the time to create a blog post.
 
This layout is another PINTEREST inspired layout and of course I changed it up a bit!
 
 
Here is the one that I found and you can find their website HERE.
 
 
This is the end resuly for my layout. My original plan was to use my Cricut and a few cartridges, but I didn't have the settings right and it was tearing my cardstock and I only had 2 sheets of my pattern paper, so I turned to my Cameo (she cuts perfectly every time). BUT you can recreate this layout using your Cricut.






 
Here is a quick video of me putting this layout together!
 
 
Thank you for stopping by and I'll see you again real soon!
 
Happy Scrappin'
