Strawberry Picking Layout.

Look ... I made another page last night. This time a two-page spread!

After dinner, I did something that I've never done before. Instead of going in the living room with Mike and Griffin, I left the boys to themselves and I went into the dining room to scrapbook. It felt really good to do something that I wanted to do. And Griffin and Daddy enjoyed some alone time.


Last Mother's Day we went to Chesterfield Berry Farm to pick strawberries. I had a ton of pictures I wanted to add to the page, so I decided to make a two-page spread.


I wanted to make the page as "boyish" as possible ... but then I put the green gingham ribbon on there and decided I would go more "countryish".


This was such a FUN day ... Griffin's first day at the strawberry patch ... and mine too!


I paper pieced this little barrel using my Cricut and the strawberries were made using a Quickutz die. I love those two tools!


And I also paper pieced this little tag. It's made using one of my Accucut tag dies, and my Quickutz strawberry and grass dies.

I'm thinking about going to the scrapbook store today. I went through a few of my 1,000s of pictures last night and pulled out some that I want to scrapbook.

that is such a "sweet" layout - love the gingham on there! i love my cricut too - i also went and got a cuttlebug - mainly because i can't squeeze the quickutz anymore and i love that machine too! it cuts all the dies - including all the sizzix ones. did you see that mike's has the cricut cartridges on sale this week for $40 and all the cuttlebug is 50% off!!! went shopping on sunday! LOL

Hey! I just checked out your eBay and you don't have any of the strawberry patch stuff on there. My husband and I just went strawberry picking this summer and I've looked everywhere for stuff to scrapbook it. I can't afford a cricut right now and was wondering about these die cuts?
