Way to go!

This was a really fun card to make. it measures 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. The total measurement is 10 1/2 x 3 1/2, scored at 3 1/2 & 7". Then I cut out a circle in the center square and folded the right flap in. (on the inside of that flap I attached the patterned paper). Let me know if you need visuals to help you understand!!
Anyway, I used Starring You stamp set, blue bayou, riding hood red, & chocolate chip cardstock and patterned paper from the UR Sweet SS kit. New buttons & star brads were added for embellishments. I used versamark & clear embossed the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a happy day!

swap card

This is a card I made for a swap with a few of my demonstrator friends. It uses the Gerogia Peach papers, Cute & Curly label punch & stamps, scallop edge punch, new button, and felt flower. I used Versamark & white embossing powder to stamp the image & emboss. I also used dimensionals to raise each of the labels.

That's it for today...I'm off to class! Have a good weekend everyone!

Using new stuff!

Here's a page I made using the Washington Apple papers. I've also used: Loads of Letters chipboard, new buttons & brads & scallop edge punch.

I'm off to school soon...my 2nd day! To add to the stress around here, my oldest started throwing up this morning and we obviously could not take her to daycare, so my wonderful husband is coming home to take care of the girls so I can go to class. I'm so grateful he is supporting me 100%!! I'm so lucky!

Have a great day everyone!

Another SB page?

That's right people! I really didn't make this today, it was a few days ago, but I'll keep posting these until I run out of stuff!This one was made with the Summer Days Kit from the Spring SU catalog. Instead of the Wild Wasabi green, I substituted Kiwi Kiss because I thought it matched the picture best. I also used that slick new Scallop edge punch. I love that thing! It makes the job so fast! Also are thickers & satin ribbon tied around the picture. Pretty simple.

Thanks for the super sweet comments yesterday on my page & encouraging words. I really appreciate it! I can't believe you guys still read this blog!

a scrapbook page!

Oh my, I'm so sorry it's been so long since I've posted a project! this summer has just slipped away from me! I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about! I feel like I'm under pressure these days to get things done: with Cassie's 4th birthday coming soon and TODAY is my first day of school! Yes, me. I'm going back to school for the first time in 8 years! I'm excited, nervous, anxious, etc... I just hope I will do well. Oh, you might be wondering what I'll be going for? I've decided that Graphic Design will be my focus. So we'll see where it takes me.
Today I wanted to show you a page I made a couple days ago while scrapping with some friends. We spent the day talking up a storm (well, I didn't talk too much, I needed to work!) and eating yummy food! I made 12 layouts and here is one of them for Lydia's album:

I've used the new flower fusion felt flowers here with some thickers for the title. Super easy! Enjoy!
