Reading is Fun Border

Hey Crafty Friends,

Happy Spring!!

I can't believe it is almost the end of March already?!?  I always think of March as Dr. Seuss Month so I wanted to create a Scrapbook border I could put on a page later. For this border, I used Cutie Katoodles-Clever Cat & Coffee & Sunshine Bear

 file from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

I wanted the border to be fun like the Dr. Seuss books, so I decided  to balance a few items on his tail and on his head. I thought it'd be cute too if it looked like he was reading a story and it went well with the title that I came up with. Then I got sparkly happy and added a few sparkly touches. : )

Below is a complete list of supplies and materials used to complete this project:

Koala Scrapbook Border

Hey Deer Friends,

         I hope you are having a great week so far!! : ) It's been raining hard here the past few days and now all the surrounding towns are flooded. : ( Hopefully all the water goes down soon.

So, todays project is a vertical Koala Border with a Mother and a baby Koala. I used the Cutie Katoodles Koala from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

I just love Kadoodle Bug Designs Cutie Katoodle files, they are just so stinkin cute. I wanted to create something that was Mother related since Mother's Day is coming up, so I used the Koala file.  For the Koala bears, I used just the Koala file and cut the legs and arms facing one direction. I wanted it to look like the Koala was holding onto the tree. I did the same thing for the baby Koala but faced it the opposite way. The tree is from the same file as well I just increased the size. I made the sentiment in Cricut Design Space using a font called A Red Bucket.
