National Scrapbook Day

 Hello Saturday, doing a quick drive by post to share my first make for National Scrapbook Day.  I created this card this morning using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #575 and mostly scraps of paper from a Simple Stories 6x6 paper pad, this may be the last project using papers from this pad; I'm not sure I can do anything else with the remaining scraps!  This card is done and will be going postal today!

Thank you for your visit, be safe and hurry back soon!

Thursday Mustings

 Hello and happy Thursday, mini Friday let the weekend begin.  I started this post yesterday and for some reason I never hit the publish button so here I am tweaking it!   I'm back today to share another one of the layouts that I created for the National Scrapbooking Day.  I'm still really behind but such is life, I'll get it done as time permits that goes for the chores and everything else in life. For this 8 1/2 x 11 scrapbook page I used a picture taken of Baby Girl on Valentine's Day while she was out dining with one of her aunts.  I used a pagemaps sketch for inspiration, paper scraps, washi tape, stickers, dies and a embossing folder.

Thank you for your visit, hurry back soon!

Happy Mother's Day

 

Good morning and Happy Sunday, Mother's Day and the start to a new week!  I am doing a quick drive by to share a LO that I put together yesterday, the only one that I completed for National Scrapbooking Day.  I had intentions of doing more but of course I didn't!  I used sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap #248, papers from the Simple Stories Faith 12x12 paper pad, the Spellbinder's Blooms #1 die set, enamel dots and pearl embellishments.  I stamped the title with an American Crafts stamp that I picked up in JoAnn's earlier this year. I added the journaling on the back, I took this selfie one day as I walked back home after dropping my car off to be serviced, I wanted to document me wearing a jumper that I had picked up from Aldi one of my favorite grocery stores!

Thank you for your visit, hope you have an amazing love filled day!

National Scrapbook Day

Hello and happy NSD! I don't have any scheduled plans for today but chores,rest and play.  I am off to a good start in the play area as I have already created two cards.  Today I am sharing the first card which is a birthday card created with mostly scraps, the pattern paper came from a Becky Higgins Project Life 6x6 paper pad.  I am sharing this card for the CAS-ual Fridays pick 6 birthday card challenge.  I used six butterflies that I punched with a MS punch to which I added some stickles and some Candy Shoppe Jellies.  The stamp used for the sentiment is from the Casual Elegance stamp set from CAS-Hal Fridays.  Take care and enjoy your day.

Mother's Day

Yesterday was National Scrapbooking Day and I did manage to complete a few challenges; my goal was to mainly work on Mother's Day cards since I need to get them in the mail this week!  So today I'm sharing a card that I am submitting for two different challenges. 

The first challenge was hosted on the Cricut message board by a group of wonderful Circle crafters.  You can head over to Around the Block with Scraplette where she hosted a Tic Tac Toe game.  My card uses the three elements in the last column; a cuttlebug folder, bling and ribbon.

Secondly, I'm sharing this card for this month's challenge over at Mema's Crafts where this month's theme is Anything Goes with a suggested Mother's Day and or May Flowers theme.

I'm working on several other projects that have posting deadlines today so I may be back.  Thank you for stopping by and have a great week.

Sisters

I completed this LO on NSD, I used a picture of me and my youngest sister. She probably won't be so happy that I posted it on my blog. I used flowers from a goodie bag that I received at our NSD crop, thanks Shalyn!

Mother's Day Card

I'm still trying to use my scraps, I made this card on NSD while at a crop. The fiber used for the dress was courtesy of Sharon and the dress idea/design provided by Shayla.

Teacher Appreciation

This is the card I made for my daughter's teacher for Teacher Appreciation Week and it include a gift card for some godiva chocolate. This card was one I made as part of the Pinkstamper's NSD challenges.

Soccer Diva

I did this LO for one the the NSD challenges posted by the Pinkstamper from the cricut MB. Spring soccer LO of Esperanza on the field.
