Baby Love!

I'm finally getting some scrap pages done. Yay!

I know, I say that every time I post pics of pages I've finished. LOL

 This is pictures from my sister's first pregnancy. She HATES being the center of attention and you can see that in the picture above (bigger pic, look at that face!)

I used my Jasmine Cricut cartridge for the lettering. The flourishes & hearts are also cut with the Cricut.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Anniversary Enchantment

Hello!

Are you getting inky today? :)

I made a card using my Everyday Enchantment dsp as the focal point. What do you think?

That piece is my favorite from this pack. I punched the hearts from the Owl punch. That's Poppy Parade c/s with pearls.

This is also the first project that I used my new labels collection framelits. They have a great vintage feel to them.

This will be my In-laws Anniversary card. We share the same Anniversary month. Ain't that cute?! :)

Challenges:
The Outlawz's CAS Challenge 020512 - Make an engagement, wedding, or anniversary card. Happy 25th Anniversary Diana!
Paper Take Weekly Challenge - Anything Goes with a bonus: hearts

Have a good one!

Until next time...

Sooooooo Much Love!

Hi friends!

Here's a card I made the other night. It's another one that we made at the Valentine's Class a couple weeks ago.

I just love that border punch by SU! I've been using it a lot! Remember the itty bitty buttons? There's one of them on the card. That thing was soooo hard to thread! giggle

Another punch I'm using a lot...the 3 heart punch. Such cuteness it adds to cards! Wow, now that I look at this card.....it's full of punched goodness! :)

I hope you enjoyed my post. Have a great day!

Loving Tiny Bubbles!

Another Monday is here!

I hope your week is off to a good start.

Here's a card I made using my "new to me" Tiny Bubble embossing folder by Cuttlebug.

 

I love this thing, and wonder why I haven't bought it before now?!

The stamps are SU! Mixed Bunch and Delightful Dozen

I went through my stash of cards the other day and I don't have the first Get Well card! Yikes! Gotta get on that! :) Unfortunately, they are needed often.

Challenges I'm entering:

Crafty Gals February Challenge!

Hi!

It's time again for the Crafty Gals (Blog Group) challenge.

Lela is our hostess this month. Here is her challenge:

February is the month of LOVE and what could be better than showing off our idea of a "ReCipE for A VaLEntiNE". Last year DH made me chocolate dipped strawberries. He found the recipe on-line and they were fabulous. It was wonderful but a surprise as usually he gets me roses. What makes the perfect VaLEntiNE surprise? Is it candy, flowers, love notes? Let's see your ReCipE for sharing LOVE. Don't forget to add a Heart or 2 on our project.

So, I drew from that....this card:

I remembered this little notebook stamp I had made by Verve. The "u" I cut with my Cricut. I haven't used fiber in a very long time. I like the look of it with this card. I hope you like my "recipe" :)

Please visit all my other Crafty Gals friends! Their blogs are listed in my left sidebar.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time...

Gooshy, Mooshy, Love :-)

By the time the 14th comes, I'm gonna be tired of making Valentine's cards, LOL

That's how I felt at Christmas too. I make so many things way before the holiday comes that when it finally does get here....well.

Now, don't think for a moment that I don't enjoy the holidays. I just wish there was a way for me to get my cards for them done the night before them all so they would be nice and fresh events! hahahahaha (never gonna happen).

Here's a card for a sweetie on my list...

This is also a project I did with the ladies last Friday at my class. The bottom is rolled with a SU! wheel. Those things can be tricky. The sentiment is from the SU! set Petite Pairs.

Thanks for visiting today! Have a good one :)

Until next time...

{HEART} U

Hello everyone!

Happy first day of February! Are you in a "loving" mood yet? *giggle*

Maybe some of my "loving" creations will give you inspiration this month!

This is a 2, 4, 6, 8 box. I made these with some ladies the other night. They had never made a treat box. I do believe they enjoyed it. 

I decorated it very simply with scrap c/s. I used the 3 heart punch from SU! and then cut the "u" with the cricut. I filled them with jolly ranchers. They held quite a few...great for any little sweetie on your Valentine's list!
This little box also goes along with The Little Red Wagon Challenge "Valentine's Day or Love" 
...and the Tuesday Throwdown Challenge "Use Hearts"

Until next time...

Blessings...
