Celebrate card

Another card. This one is for my cousin Jodi's birthday tomorrow. I again used today challenge at 365 cards to come up with it. The challenge was an ad inspired challenge - I pulled out the colors & placement, and noticed there was a tray of cupcakes in the ad, so went with that.

Birthday card

A birthday card for Auntie Joan that will be a bit late since the mailman won't get it there by tomorrow - oops! Monday's challenge at 365 cards was to use only two embellishments on a card, so I used a flower & a decorative brad. All the supplies are CTMH, I did some random stamping to create the patterned paper.

Sympathy card

A sympathy card for friends whose 96 yo Grandfather passed away this weekend. I used today's challenge at 365 cards to use a button, bow & ribbon as a starting point.

Good Luck card

This is for a co-worker of my DH. He is leaving the company after 25+ years. I used a card sketch from 365 cards, and some CTMH product.

Scott's 8yr Birthday

A quick layout of Scott's 8th birthday (4 yrs ago). It feels good to get some older photos scrapped. For inspiration I used an ad challenge from Mix It Up. It was an Andy Warhol painting of LifeSavers with lots of circles & fun colors. I added the blue to "boy-it-up" I also used a sketch from 52 sketches, 52 weeks

let's Fly away

Some pictures of the kids on the flight down to DisneyWorld. They were pretty darn excited. I used the challenge from Scrapping Out Loud to tear paper, and I also used their sketch for this week (which I loved). I also was able to use 5 patterned papers each from different manufacturers, which was a challenge at Method Playground, a challenge site I just found yesterday.

Straight Hair

A layout for the challenge at Scrapping Out Loud. This was a simple layout that came together quickly using their sketch. This week's challenge was to use 2 or more types of lace on a layout. I managed to use 3 kinds and was inspired by their examples and created some lace flowers - pretty simple! This was the first time Nicole had her hair straigtened and she LOVED it. She wanted me to take more and more photos!!
