Here is my project for you.  My theme is Thanksgiving.  I have done a 2-page layout.  The cardstock is from my stash and I think it is all Bazzill.  The printed paper and Turkey and leaves Stickers are from Reminisce from 2009.

The printing of the “tab cards” was done with the Cricut Imagine. I used the cartridges From My Kitchen and the new Imagine More.  The fun cooking words were also done on the Imagine with the same 2 cartridges.  The cardstock printed on was white from Recollections. (Michaels)

The large letters are from American Crafts and are Thickers.  The little letters are Tiny Type from Cosmo Cricket.

 

 

Here is a close-up of my “special recipe” for this layout.

Did you figure out what I did?  I made recipe box tabs and added all of my pictures from my wonderful family weekend in Ohio.

The cartridge I used was From My Kitchen for Cricut.  I was lucky enough to get my new Cricut Imagine this last week so I combine the Imagine More cartridge and “colored” each card with the Imagine.  I am loving the look I must say!  It was like getting bonus paper because I used just white cardstock for the printing.

I printed the pictures at 4 on a page on my printer and cut them apart and trimmed the white border off.

I glued each picture to the “tab card”.  I also used the From My Kitchen and Imagine More cartridges and came up with some cooking terms to add randomly to the cards.

There are 2 sets of cards because we had 2 big days of celebrating together.  Besides Thanksgiving we were celebrating a teenager birthday too! 

A trip to Ohio and a family gathering of Stauffers is not complete without a BIG meal at Marion’s Pizza.  We are all hopelessly addicted and those of us that are out of state can’t get enough when we are visiting.

I will add a picture of how I bind the cards to the page. I think it will just be with a binder clip so it can be removed and looked at.

 

To be eligible for MY BLOG CANDY I just ask you to use my “recipe” on a layout and expand the number of pictures beyond the normal 4 x 6 or the visible ones on the layout.  Keep it simple, I want you to have FUN!  Just do a couple, cuz you know you want to try LOL.

You can make tags and use a brad to connect them.  Of course you are only limited to your imagination here!

Just come back and post a link to your creation here!

Thanks and HAVE FUN AT THE HOP!  And don’t forget, follow my blog and become a member of the CS Divas too!
