Miss Kate Cuttables Summer Day layout

Happy Summer! I can't believe it's been 4 years since we took this trip.  This is a pretty simple layout and really focuses on the photo. My husband was so happy in this moment. I used a subtle chevron patterned paper. The grass is also a subtle print of green polka dots.  

I haven't used my Cricut in 6 months but I have turned it on once again!

Cricut cuts:

Miss Kate Cuttable title image

grass cut

stitched circle

Little Yellow Bicycle paper

Miss Kate Cuttables Hiking scrapbook layouts for Bitten by the Bug 2's Great Outdoors challenge

Hi there, I have several scrapbook pages as inspiration for the latest Bitten by the Bug 2's Great Outdoor challenge.  I used Miss Kate Cuttables and Cricut Outdoor Man images for all the layouts.  All of the photos are from a 2020 trip to Connecticut.  

The background paper for the first two pages are Little Yellow Bicycle Fern & Forest.  The other side is a bold pattern of ferns but this side is a very subtle tan chevron striped patterned.  I purchased a 20 count pack of it and I am getting low, it has proven so useful.  The title is from Miss Kate Cuttables and the leaves are from Cricut Outdoor Man.  The journal spot is a manual die cut.

The sign is from Outdoor Man.

The hiking book border is MKC.

The title of this page is from Outdoor Man.  I used Bazzill card stock. The background paper has a slight hiking boot design.  I believe it is from Reminisce.  

The last page uses Storytellers Club designer paper, gosh this goes back at least 10 years.

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables hiking and border cuts

Cricut Outdoor Man image cuts

Little Yellow Bicycle Fern & Forest papers

misc Bazzill card stock mostly gemstone variety

metallic card stock 

Storytellers Club designer paper

misc papers

Miss Kate Cuttables Graduation Owl Congrats for Bitten by the Bug 2

Hello and welcome to the latest Bitten by the Bug 2 Graduation challenge.  I used some Cricut and some Miss Kate Cuttables images.  I had cut this owl before and I actually cut two of them. One with a tie and one without.

The white collar didn't seem to fit correctly.  On this version I fussy cut my own.  So this one looks a little different.

If you look closely, you can see who the white collar is a little different. There's a little bit of brown showing between the gown and collar on this one. It just bothered me.

Ingredients:

Cricut 3 Birds Life's a Party

Miss Kate Cuttables Graduation Owl

Miss Kate Cuttables Sunshine for Bitten By the Bug 2 Sun Challenge

It is time again for a Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge~Show me the Sun challenge.  Summer Solstice was this past Saturday, the official start of the summer season.  It has more hours of daylight than any day of the year.  I found this great photo of the summer sun over Walden Pond.  I dug out some really old papers with great colors to highlight my photo.

Here are my cuts.  The MKC title was cut with a different sun but I didn't like the colors or style of the sun so I cut another one from Art Philosophy.

I used this sketch from The Scraproom Group on FB.

This is a 3-D embellishment sticker is way more that a year old...from 2013!

Ingredients:

Cricut Close to My Heart Art Philosophy-sun

Miss Kate Cuttables-Get Outside! Bitten By the Bug 2 Challenge

Welcome to Bitten By the Bug 2's latest challenge, today in the United State we celebrate Labor Day.  As most American's celebrate the day off and the extra long weekend with some outdoor festivities, the challenge for the next two weeks is to use your Cricut machine to Get Outside!  This theme leaves a lot of room for variety such as camping, hiking, swimming, boating, outdoor sporting events or concerts, a picnic or BBQ, or family reunion.  In Cincinnati, we have an annual fireworks display on Sunday night before Labor Day.

I have created a card using some Miss Kate Cuttables images.

The bear was just too cute to put in the tent.  I had to cut the outline three times with different papers until I found one that stayed strong, Bazzill.

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables  Mountain Range and Bear with tent

Stamplorations die cut Be Kind

Our Daily Bread Designs stitched rectangle dies

Cosmo Cricket S'more Love 8x8 paper stack

Quick Quotes Powderpuff Chalking inks

Miss Kate Cuttables Woodland Owl card

I have another card from my Miss Kate Cuttables images.  I love owls.  You may have seen my Graduation Owl card for my niece.  This one I created the owl and then decided to make a card using the We R Happy Campers paper as the background.

These tiny stars are part of the MKC cut but the "moon" is a stitched manual die from ODBD.  I used a silver pen for the dots in the eyes.

In this photo you can see the awesome dimension in this cut file.

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables Woodland Owl

We R Happy Campers paper

Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer Camping layouts

Good morning, I am so excited to be today's Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer!  There were so many fantastic images with which to work.  It was hard to decide but I always have tons of camping pics, so this great title and the Camping borders were perfect for my many pages.  Really the arrows are so versatile, I am thinking pages of my nephew or masculine greeting cards.

I love how detailed the title is, of course, one could leave off any layers but I chose to use every one.  I also chalk all my edges to give the layers the appearance of even more dimension.

All the printed papers are from the same collection, however they are a bit different so I used the tree border to provide a cohesiveness to my pages.  The tree border is two layers, one in brown for the trunk and a green print for the foliage.

On the second page I utilized scrap paper to create embellishments which I added on top of another arrow border.  I simply fussy cut and added pop dots to the back.  I cut the same border twice in two different papers then off set them on the page. 

I added some of the extra tree cuts from the title in a cluster here.  I also had these adorable camping brads.  As you can see this was a pretty wet camp out and I don't have many great pics.

Ingredients:
Miss Kate Cuttables Camping borders and Camping fun title
GCD The Great Outdoors papers
misc papers including shimmer
brads

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope I have provided some inspiration for you.  Don't forget to check out my blog for more Miss Kate Cuttables projects.

Miss Kate Cuttables Graduation Owl

Hello, I am gearing up for my Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer post in a couple of days.  I just love her owls and this Graduation version was perfect for my niece's graduation card.  The sentiment is a different cut file but they work great together.

To make my owl a little more feminine I put a pearl in the middle of the tie.  I also felt the background paper from Quick Quotes lent to the feminine quality of the card.  I added dots to the eyes with a silver pen.  I believe the stars and diploma were part of the sentiment cut file.  I love those stars with the two layers, I will definitely be using them again.

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables Graduation Owl and Graduation Day

Quick Quotes Serenade 101 paper (background)

misc card stock from my stash

I have made a scrapbook layout.  I used a Miss Kate Cuttable image for the title but added a manual cut, too!  This is seriously mixed up brand wise.  I don't think I used any two products from the same company, maybe a couple of the card stocks are Bazzill.

The leaves on this title are two layers.  The first layer is a muted green and the top layer is a green vellum.  I thought they looked super cool so I made extras and tucked them behind the popped up title.

I found this vellum quote sticker in my stash.  I have no idea of the brand.

I love this set of stamps and dies from Local King Rubber...there's a hippie bus too!  I use it every chance I get.

Ingredients:

Miss Kate Cuttables The Great Outdoors title

Stampin Up Wild Wasabi ink

Local King Rubber Stamps and die (kayak)

vellum quote sticker
