Big Brother

 

Hello and happy Tuesday, sunny and warm temps in today's forecast.  I'm doing a quick drive by post to share another 81/2 x 11 created for one of my daughter's albums.  I used sketch inspiration from the Stick it Down May single page LO challenge, more CTMH papers and some wood veneer letters for the title and embellishments.  I'm sharing this LO for the Cardz TV anything goes challenge #140.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return soon.  Take care and continue to be safe.

Time Flies

Hello and happy Thursday and birthday to my first born Justin!  I am scheduling this post so no weather info today.  Today,s card is one that uses sketch inspiration from  Try Stamping on Tuesday #392.  The pattern paper came from the DCWV Teenage Dream 12x12 paper pad, the watch and sentiment came from the Richard Garay  Time Flies stamp and die set, finished the card by adding some NIcole nail heads.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will return soon.

You're Spec-tacular

Hello and happy Friday, started off cloudy but the sun is trying to come out.  Yesterday we had some mild temps but they are more seasonal today.  Today I am sharing the Valentine card that I put together for my son, the sentiment says it all.  I used challenge #354 from Try Stampin' on Tuesday for inspiration.  I used more pattern paper from the Be Mine paper pad along with some Queen & Co. Jellies and a stamp that I picked up from Micheals last year or maybe two years ago.  I'm also sharing this card for the Anything Goes Challenge #33 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Happy Day

Hello and happy cold Wednesday!  Happy Birthday to Justin, my first born who reminded me over the holidays that he was an old man.  I hope and pray that he is blessed with many more years of celebrating his birth.  Today I am sharing a LO of my two heartbeats using a picture taken of them last summer when they got to see each other in Pittsburgh.  They are the apple of each other's eyes which makes me totally blessed.  It is another one of my signature simple LOs but I did step out of my comfort zone and did some stenciling, everything used has been in my stash for a number of years.  I am sharing this LO for the Random Word challenge over at Soul Scrappers and my word is happy!  Take care, have a wonderful Wednesday and try to stay warm.

Celebrating Justin

Hello and happy Monday, raining and really wet outside today; but I'm grateful!  I am excited to share with you that for the next two weeks I will be celebrating my two children, all post/projects will be for them or about them!  My son's birthday is this week and my daughter's birthday is next week.  Today I am sharing the birthday card that I created for my son from his sister, I used the sketch inspiration from sketch #248 over at Atlantic Hearts.  The pattern paper came from the love Nicole Time Machine 6x6 paper pad and the sentiment stamp is from Stampendous.  I'm sharing this card for the Shopping Our Stash birthday challenge #338.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll come back soon.

Together

Hello and happy first Wednesday of 2018!  I am doing a quick driveby sharing one of the last LOs that I was able get done in 2017.  I did complete my challenge so I've decided to approach it a little different this year; my goal is do something craft related everyday so we'll see how that goes.  Today's LO is one of my favorites since it uses pictures taken of my two children taken on Christmas Eve while my son was home visiting for the holidays.  We took these picture when we got home from church and later we went to the studio to have family pictures taken; I wasn't so pleased with them so I may or may not scrap them!  I used another sketch from Sketch N Scrap, paper, enamel dots and washi from a Lori Whitlock paper kit.  I cut the tree using a Darice die and letters from my stash for the title.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll come back again soon.

Happy Birthday Justin

Hello Sunday, today is my son's birthday so I am sharing one of the cards that I made for him!  I mailed them last week but probably not in time for him to receive them.  I hope he has an awesome day celebrating and we are looking forward to him coming home for a visit later this weekend because his little sister will be celebrating her birthday on Saturday.  I need to hurry and make her card too!  I used color pencils to color the stamp which is one of my favorites from V's Sweet Ideas.  The black and white pattern paper is from a 8x8 pad from The Paper Studio, all the papers used and the brads have been in my stash for ever.

Take care and have a great week, hope you'll come back soon!  I am going to spend some of my day finishing up my LOs for the month of January.

Christmas 1988

Yes, the title is correct!  I am back today to share another LO, it is one using pictures of my adult son's childhood.  I wasn't a scrapbooker when he was growing up so I am just starting to create an album for and of him!  So you'll see more pages documenting his childhood along with LOs of baby girl! This is one of the reasons I will never catch up!

Over at Hiding in my Craft Room they are celebrating their  Blogiversary in honor of their 6th birthday.   I am sharing this LO for their Let's Scrapbook challenge.  If you are looking for some inspiration and fun challenges you have until Saturday, August 22 to link your projects.  The pattern paper came from a Christmas stack that I picked up from Michaels so it may be Recollections, all of the embellishments were cut with the SLICE.

Wishing you and yours a wonderful Wednesday!
