Welcome to My Cricut Craft Room's October's Blog Hop 

Collectively the design team and guest designers have made some amazing and special projects to share with you... over 60 projects are on this hop, but it is in less than 20 stops.

I have made this great project to share with you today.

I made this to match a monkey themed diaper cake I made . I used Cricut Craft Room basics for the Scalloped Circle then welded the two palm trees from Create a Critter , a must have cartridge ! And of course the adorable monkey is also from  Create a Critter !

 

This layout I made using my cricut flower shoppe cartridge, and the

Storybook overlay another pretty cartridge to have !
