St. Patrick's Day Card - Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

I thought this little guy was adorable and had fun making this card for St. Patrick's Day! I made it for  the Anything Goes challenge over at Simon Says Stamp!

Another Card- a little CAS

My photography is a little off, but I created this little CAS bunny holding a banner saying Happy...(open the card) Birthday! I am entering into MFP Stamp Shop's CAS using Bunny Challenge. I found it while looking at another challenge site's entries....

HAPPY EASTER!! He has risen!

Happy Birthday Mitchell

I've been trying to make time for scrapbooking lately. I was inspired by my friend's circle challenge and used bright colors to meet the requirements of the Simon Says All Things Bright and Beautiful!!!  The papers are certainly bright, and the girlfriend is certainly beautiful!! lol

Thanks for visiting!

4th of July at My Sister's House

Now, that I have it on here, I see that it is  a little blurry. I started it for the embossing challenge but didn't finish it until today--so the white lines are sanded embossed lines i created with my Scor-Pal.  I am entering this in Simon Says Anything Goes....

P.S. This is my second entry.

Kelly & Daddy

I made this for Simon Says Spring Flowers challenge! 

Thanks for looking.

The Storage Unit

I thought I'd participate in the DCWV sketch challenge for May.  I used a bunch of older stacks to create this layout:  The Family Connections Stack, Safari Kids, Hittin' the Books, and Mainstreet.  All of the elements seemed to work together to me.  Thanks for looking!

Buzzing with Good Wishes

I created this using this fun sketch from Page Maps with the challenge to change the shape! When I saw this sketch, I immediately thought of my CTMH Quick Cards— Bumble Bee stamp and my Spellbinders hexagon shape to make the card! The "buzzing with good wishes" takes place of the little banner/border.  I also embossed the yellow part with a Cuttlebug folder and then inked it up.  I sprayed a little Mr. Huey Mist on the card as well as coloring the bee with some shimmerz powder and then covering the entire bee with liquid glue!  The buttons are from Basic Grey and the charm came from Michael's (don't know the brand). The twine is from The Twinery!

Thanks for looking! I love this card!

Picture Perfect - Disc Golf

I love it when Steve and Mitch play together!  Here, I've captured each of them getting ready to throw the disc golf toward the target! They are both so intense!!!!!  I created this using this fun sketch from Page Maps and incorporated borders per the challenge instructions. I added a camera from Amy Tan's collection to qualify for Simon Says Stamp Says Take a Picture Challenge.  I used a bunch of Jillibean Soup and American Crafts for this page but also added a stamped border of some great stamps from Teresa Collins Designs. 

I love all of the color in the page and think the arrows are fun for the movement of the game!

Thanks for looking!!!

I hope you are having a great Memorial Day weekend!

1998-Coloring Easter Eggs with a friend

I made this for Page Maps 7 year anniversary challenge to make your own stamp (I cut out an old Sizzix sizzlet butterfly image onto foam and then stamped away! I decided to spritz the page with a little mist to represent some of the coloring. I used two Doodlebug collection for this and their twine. I believe the brads are Teresa Collins. and the hat pins are Maya Road.  Thanks for looking. It was fun going back to these old photos of Mitch from when he was almost four.... He's 19 now....

You Will Always Be My Little Boy

I made this for the Page Maps Colour Suite Challenge sponsored by Echo Park. I was lucky enough to win All About a Boy from Echo Park during NSD this year.  I used it along with Little Boy and Hello Summer to make the layout! The only things that are not Echo Park are the sun boundary which is from CTMH and the twine. I also embossed the denim looking paper with a new Spellbinders two in one embossing folder.Oh, yeah, and I added a little mist from Tattered Angels.  Mitch is holding a sweet gum. What is funny about it is that he said "Mom, look, a sour gum!"  I thought it was funny anyway!


Thanks for looking and hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day!

St. Lucia

I made this for the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Challenge. I also made it using the sketch at Pamela's World of Scrap.... (Actually, I already made a layout for this month's sketch so I used an older sketch so that I could enter twice.)

circa 1988 or so...

This layout is so much prettier in person. It is one of my favorite layouts to date.  I used a sheet of the most gorgeous Authentique paper (the wood grain and the blue flowered) that I got from The Paper Bakery.  I'm entering at it Simons Says...Anything Goes... I really do wish you could see this in person! Maybe one day I will learn how to take good photos....

Thanks for looking and I hope you are having a great day!!!!!

Valentine's Card

Here's a little Valentine card I made for Crafter's Companion challenge this month--which is Anything Goes! I love those kinds of challenges! I used the darling little Humphrey's elephant stamp. I am guest designer over there this month, too! So, I will be making a project with a tutorial toward the end of the month!  Don't ask me what I'm going to make because I haven't decided yet! lol  I'm also entering the card in Simon Says Stamp challenge Red Letter Day--there isn't a better red letter day than Valentine's in my opinion!

Thanks for visiting!

I'll be announcing the winner of the Shabby Apple necklace tomorrow!!! So, there is still time to enter!

Technically Inclined Me

I made this layout for Scrapfit's Workout #56 - Technically Inclined.  It is me with the technological thing that helps me do what I love most--Scrapbooking! And, I'm using it while I'm doing the 2nd thing I love most--travelling!

I hope you have a great weekend!

Thanks for visiting! I really appreciate it!

Happy Halloween - 2011

I made this layout using this week's Sketchy Thursdays sketch! The papers are My Mind's Eye. Mitch went trick-or-treating with some Speech and Debate friends. He said he gave his loot to one of the team member's younger brother! That was nice of him! I'm glad he didn't bring candy home! I would have probably eaten it!

Thanks for visiting!

Love Me Do -- Love Birds Walking on the Beach in California

Here's one of Steve and me walking along the ocean! I used a sketch from Sweet Peach Crop Shop which I fell in love with as soon as I saw it! Everything except the twine, red ink, and adhesive is My Mind's Eye "Love Me Do" collection. You should see the goofy look on my face in the first one!
