instafriday: week 1 2014
I am not ready for this year to start….
I think the last 2 years have been so good; I just don’t want to let go!
I still am contemplating if I want to continue instafriday. As much as I love it I’m kinda tired of it. But here I am with the first week of 2014.
This past week involved lots of traditions, and new adventures.
Had my first mammogram
We drove to San Diego for the charger chief game
The chargers won, and now they are in the playoffs
This boy was a little excited

i made this: lifestyle crafts
Today is my last post of 2013! To finish this year I’m gonna show you a little project using my evolution and genius platform from Lifestyle Crafts.
First of all I used a calendar cuties from I Love It All.
Now I don’t know about you, but I just cant seem to cut straight! If I am using scissors or a paper cutter, I get a straight line with curves. That’s why using a die is way better! Your cut will come out perfect every time.
I printed my calendar cutie on 8.5 x 11 cardstock. I then cut it down to 6 inches wide so it can run through the evolution.
Taking the second largest die from the Pocket Scrap Starter Dies I placed the ridged edge facing down and used a little washi tape to hold it in place. Make sure your ridged edge is not facing the platform {other wise you will cut your platform and dull your die} Place the cutting mat on top of the platform {your paper and die will be the meat and cheese of this sandwich} and run everything through your machine.
Pull everything out of the machine. Since I used washi tape to hold the die in place, your “die cut” will still be attached to the larger piece of paper. Carefully remove the washi and now you have a perfect cut!
You can now use your perfect cut to slip right into your Project Life or any pocket scraping you might be doing. But don’t limit these dies to pocket scrapping; this is also a perfect cut for scraping a traditional layout too!

instafriday: week 52
Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year! This is the final instafriday of 2013! As much as I LOVE this project I am a little burnt out! But I don’t think I’m gonna give up yet. I truly do love seeing the whole year in 1 album! It seriously is so fun to look through. The only way I think I could simplify this project is to just post once a month. And I think if I did that I wouldn’t be consistent, so for now I plan on doing instafriday as my project life for 2014.
