My daughter got me this 7 Gypsies tray for my birthday back in February and I finally got around to making a wall decor piece with it! I had to make an "About Me" project as one of the requirements to apply for the Club Ruby Designers design team - which, by the way, I made!!!  (If you haven't checked out Club Ruby Designers, you can do so  here!  It's a fantastic club to be a part of! So full of ideas, networking and inspiration!   Here is my project: Following are some close-ups of the details: Cricut cartridges used are Florals Embellished, Cricut Everyday, Baby Steps, Quarter Note and Stand & Salute. Thanks for looking and have a blessed day!

Hi there!! Today I have this project featured over at  She's a Sassy Lady  ! You can read the "book" that I wrote about this project by visiting her site! :-) Suffice it to say that I believe that our everyday moments are just as important as the big events so they should be celebrated too! I simply hang each month's calendar page on my fridge and write all of our comings and goings on it. At the end of the month, I put it in our family scrapbook and put all the pictures from that month in the album behind it. I've been using this "system" for years now and it really helps me stay on top of our pictures since we take so many! Even if I don't get the pictures in my album right away, I have them sorted by the month so I can easily scrap them when I have the time! All of these pages are, obviously, 12x12 and I have used a Creative Memories calendar grid. I have used various cricut cartridges for the die cuts and have those detailed under each picture.  ...
