Scrapbook Project - Rolodex

Here is a project I started some time ago and am working to complete today. Thought everyone would enjoy seeing the progress so far...


Due to the very poor pictures, I am going to narrate what each card says so you know how the story goes. It has a GREAT ending. Cinderella's got nothing on me! LOL


Every alphabet index card in the Rolodex has another piece to a fairytale starring ME! I moved all the blank cards to the back of the Rolodex just to show how great this looks with all the miscellaneous ribbon pokin out everywhere!






A-B is of course "once upon a time"!









C-D is "in a land not so far away, there lived a beautiful princess".



E-F is "and her name was Danielle".








G-H is "she was very thin and wicked funny".

I-J-K says, "One day Princess Danielle found a key in the forest and it was attached to a beautiful red ribbon."


L-M says, "Anxious to discover what it opened, she put it around her neck and continued on her way."



N-O-P says, "Soon Princess Danielle realized she was lost and sat on a rock to await Prince Charming's rescue."


Q-R says, "After some time a handsome man on a white horse appeared inquiring about the key around Princess Danielle's neck."



S-T says, "Are you Prince Charming? she asked. 'No, I'm Prince Kevin and that key around your neck opens the lock securing my treasure."




U-V-W says, "Marry Me and I will make you very rich!

'I am a princess and am already rich...' said Princess Danielle."



X-Y-Z says, "But I will marry you!' With that Princess Danielle kissed her prince and to her surprise he turned into a toad. She lived happily ever after!"


Moral of the story: some princesses don't need prince charming to live happily ever after! I hope you all liked it. I know I had a blast making it. Almost done!

Past 7 Days....

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower

The BEST Copic Storage
