STRUT YOUR CUTS WEEK # 7

Well here is a really quick post of my pages for the challenge this week, over at Scrappy-Go-Lucky I didn't have any of the Cartridges so I had to fall back on George, Accent Essential and Plantin Schoolbook.
I am doing a smaller album its a really old size "5 x 7" from Creative Memories so it really doesn't have much space to decorate, when its finished i will be giving it to my Mum and Dad.
These are the first two pages,
Then the second set of pages
                                These are in the album side by side and that's why the sun is cut in half.
Cheers Shelley

STRUT YOUR CUTS WEEK # 3

Well the weeks are going by so quickly, my son is back at school next week and my daughter will hopefully get a job teaching,  Scrapbooking is my therapy so here is my layout for Mandy at Scrappy-go-Lucky this week.
These are the Cartridge's for this week.

Shall we dance ( Circle exclusive)

Pumpkin Carving
Inspired Heart
Wall Decor and More
B is for Boy
I don't have any of these so I have to fall back on to the back up list, head on over to Mandy to see all the details.
I have used Accent Essentials for the sun, the flourishes, the round balls, square frames. George for the pool fun words and the flowers at the bottom.
Now this is what I love about this challenge is that I have only used the Cricut cartridges no other Die Cuts, no added extras from my stash. And I have actually used a feature from Plantin Schoolbook that I didn't know how or what to use it for.
Can you Guess ???
Well I will tell you, its the END CAPS, they are on every page but I used the one on page 69 called City.
I cut it out normally first and then I realised it doesn't cut the whole thing out so I put it through again and did Shift and the same key and TA DA you have the City at the bottom of the page. I also used the END CAPS on Shadow feature to give it a darker background. I then actually cut the whole thing in half so I could put it at either end of the layout.
If I get enough people responding as to how to do this I will do a post next week and take step by step photo's.
Enjoy Shelley
