Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge....Episode #184

Emma over at My Creative Time asked us to use any cricut lite or older cart if you do not have a lite and make a 1 or 2 page layout. I had a great time with this challenge. I used to wallet size photos of my niece in her dance recital outfits....love her outfits this year, and looking forward to the recital on April 30th. So here is my 12 x 12 one page layout. Hope you enjoy!!

Missing In Action.....Here is why!!!


Good Morning I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend. Here in Wisconsin I woke up to snow on the ground. ( I thought it was Spring) LOL!!! I have been MIA for awhile because I have been helping my sister in-law with a project. Her daughter is in 7th grade and they are responsible for the 8th grade pre graduation dinner and dance. (Invites, table place cards decorations ext.) So since I have the Cricut Expression and she has the baby bug I told her I would be happy to help her cut out all the pieces she needed. I had a great time with it and we are almost finished. The theme for the pre graduation was a Night of a Thousand Stars!! Here are some pictures of what I have been up to. Hope you enjoy!!!
