happy Mothers Day


This was a couple weeks ago, but forgot to post it. Been busy! I made this card using the Create a Critter Cartridge - so much fun - Love this cartridge. I used Wild Card to cut out Happy Mother's Day. I'm hoping to get back to some scrapbooking in the next couple weeks when the kids are finished with preschool for the year. Happy Spring!

My Pink Stamper Challenge


My pink Stamper Challenge - Brown, Green & Yellow.

I made 2 cards using this Color combination. It's fun to pick a few sheets of paper and see what you can create!

This card I used a green patterned paper a layer of chocolate chip from stampin up. Stamped using chocolate Chip Ink on White cardstock. Used the cuttlebug with embossing folder swirls on yellow cardstock and brushed brown cateye ink to color swirls. Used the cricut and wild card cartridge to cut out a flower and punched a 1 1/4 inch circle using the stampin up punch.



The next card With Sympathy was created with Green patterened paper, yellow & Chocolate chip cardstock from Stampin up. Also used Chocolate Chip gross grain ribbon. The branch was cut from cricut cartridge wild card and the butterfly was cut from Everyday paper doll cartridge. With Sympathy was stamped with brown ink using Impression Obsession verticle stamp set.

Scrapbook Retreat April 2010

I had a wonderful opportunity to go for the whole weekend to Viking Bay Resort with a bunch of fabulous ladies and scrapbook for the whole time! We had such a great time and even though I got a lot done it wasn't my most successful weekend. I think I got maybe 15 layouts done? I didn't actually count them. So 30 pages isn't bad, but not the best for an entire weekend. I was ill on Sunday morning so I only did 1 layout - probably part of the issue? I am looking forward to October when we have planned to return to the same place. Great place for retreats.. Rooms are separate from the work room, but if you can get past that - Great place! So here are a few of my favorite layouts I did this weekend. Not all.. won't bore you!! And for those of you I mentioned the Mickey Mouse Font. It was used on the Game Night Layout. Storybook was used for the triple layer crown on Princess Ella & the "After" on the Earing Page

Two More cards!!


I'm normally not crafting on a Saturday afternoon, especially when it's nice out and the family is outside, but I have a bad cold and I think it's due to allergies. YUCK! So I'm house bound doing a few house chores and making a few cards for the next month.

Did this card for a contest - Hope I win! Yeah!

April Cards

Here are my latest cards I created.
