A few months ago I made my SIL Meghan a 8X8 scrapbook. Since then her older sister Alyson had a new baby girl. I made this layout in about 15 minutes this morning to add to Meghan’s book. It’s very simple but cute. I’d love to add the picture and frame it. :)

If you remember back to the Mickey Mouse Brithday Invitations I made we finally had the party. I used both of the Mickey Cricut Cartridges to make the sucker covers, birthday sign, and banners. I was given a Mickey cookie cutter years ago that I pulled out for the fancy cookies. Last year I stressed about the cake and this year I wanted to go easy. I made Mallory a personal cake out of a normal size cupcake and mini cupcakes. It turned out well.

Here are a few more paper piecings I just finished. They too are from Lisa at Precious Piecings. I started to work on some of my own patterns again today but ran out of time. With my daughters 2nd birthday and Easter this week I’m a little overwhelmed. I like to do that to myself. I have a list of projects and ideas that I want to do but they will have to wait until next week. I’ll post my birthday and Easter projects as soon as they are finished.
