Fun times with friends......

Happy Wednesday! I finally felt inspired to crop actual pictures instead of dreaming with Madison Rose! (my granddaughter-to-be-born-in-September). I took many pictures during my last trip to Lafayette and these are some of them. This awesome clock is from Dusty Attic.The rhinestone flower on the left is from Prima and the hearts at the bottom come from a Mardi Gras bead necklace.

This was the "surprise" tag I taught last time I was at Treasured Memories. The mask is from Designer's Calender Cricut Cartridge which I covered with light modeling paste, then painted with acrylic paints and then embossed and added crackled accents.


I love Restoration Collection from Crate Paper! Since I only had a piece here and a piece there I decided to cut out strips for my base. The black doilies are from Maya Road and the chipboard embellishments are from Crate Paper Restoration Collection too.


Abby, Deidre and I had so much fun croppin' together for four straight days!


 See, I scrap other colors besides pink!!!!!! Have a fabulous and blessed day!

Precious......

Good morning! Today I am sharing another PINK page.... I know, I know, I know... I am obsessed with pinks right now, what can I say? I played with Ornamental Iron Cricut Cartridge and I made the frame, the swirls on the right hand side, the white gate and the letters too. I love that cartridge!


 Have a blessed day!

Paper Niche reveals....

Good morning! Hope you had a great and restful weekend. Paper Niche's April Kit is already available and it is filled with goodies from Prima, BoBunny, 7 gypsies and much more. These are the layouts I made with it.

 
 



These are transparent letters which I embossed and painted with alcohol inks. I also used my Cuttlebug to emboss the chipboard flowers and leaves.


Gine, the DT coordinator, and I were joking about putting a plain chipboard horse in this kit.  Well, she put one on my bag without me knowing about it and I cut 4 for myself (AccuCut) so I could surprise her.  I ended up with 5 horses on my project!!!  I found the perfect poem called "The Bronco that Could Not Be Broken from Dancing", made a 12 x 12 canvas, painted them and used them all in my project! See? Prima lace, bling, papers and flowers go with EVERYTHING!!!! I bought the handle in an antique shop in Havana, Florida (north of Tallahassee).


Have a blessed day!

It's a girl!

What a way to start April.....  we just  found out that our first grand-baby is a girl! Her name is Madison Rose and she is expected to arrive on September 2. This is her first PINK page!!!!


Last night I only wanted to scrap pinks, flowers, pearls, ribbons and lace!!!!!!


I can imagine her tiny hands and feet and rosy cheeks......


Today we have another sketch challenge at Stuck On Us Sketches.This fabulous sketch is from Beggahuna.



I love this sketch! I converted it into a two-page layout with an 8 x 10 picture. I used the fabulous Gabrielle's collection from BoBunny (again!). The circle is  chipboard from Technique Tuesday which  I inked  and then stamped.
