Hey, everyone! I had a little time to update today so I thought I would post a card. I love Stampin Up!'s Bloomin Beautiful stamp set. It is so beautiful!

For this card I used the Bloomin Beautiful set. I got the idea for the definition behind the flower in the 2008 Fall-Winter Catalog. I colored the flower with Prisma pencils and OMS. The Thinking of You sentiment is Lizzie Anne Designs. The square rhinestones are from Wal-Mart. The patterned paper is Me and My Big Ideas. I stamped the definition stamp with River Rock ink. Now I have to go and play with my new Pocket Silhouettes stamp set. I will post my creations with that set later in the week. Thanks for looking. Have a great afternoon.

Hey, everyone! I am getting better at updating! I made this card for my stash of birthday cards. I am always needing birthday cards! I just used some scraps from my scrap paper pile. The green paper with polka dots is DCWV Nana's Kids. The blue flowered paper is form DCWV 2007 Spring or Summer stack. The scalloped circle is Cricut Cartridge Mini Monograms. I made the holes in the scallops with my eyelet setter. The Happy Birthday 2 U is from Lizzie Anne Designs. The two tiny cupcakes at the bottom are rub-ons. The 2 U is watercolored with Stampin Up!'s watercolor pencils and a blender pen. The 2 U also has Stickles on it. It is a little hard to see, but I will post a close-up of the glittered part. Let's see, not much else to describe. I don't know what brand the brown and pink patterned paper is. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Hey, everyone! I was having trouble getting to sleep, so I decided to post a card. I made this card with some of the scraps I had from previous cards. The blue flowered patterned paper is DCWV spring stack 2007 (I think it was the spring stack). The green polka dot patterned paper is DCWV Nana's Kids. All the stamps are Studio G. The flowers are watercolored with watercolor pencils and a blender pen. The scalloped circle is a Cricut cartridge Mini Monograms. I made the holes with my eyelet setter. The scalloped border is decorative scissors and the holes are with the eyelet setter. The center of the flowers have glitter but it is hard to see. Also I tried to sew, but I kinda messed up. Guess I need more practice! Thanks for looking! Hope everyone has a great night!

I just can't seem to keep this thing updated. I haven't had much time to craft here lately, as I was busy with my little guy's 2nd birthday and family visiting. But I finally made some time to get in my craft cave. The stamped image on the card is Stampin Up's Fun and Fast Notes (LOVE that set). I colored it in with Prisma pencils and OMS. The green background paper is embossed with a Cuttlebug folder (Stylized flowers, I think it's called). The flower at the bottom is two flowers layered together, and held with a brad. I cut the flowers out with the Cuttlebug Olivia font. Patterned paper is American Crafts. "Hello" stamp is a Studio G stamp. I think that is about it! Thanks for looking! Have a great Sunday evening!

Ultrasound Pics

These are ultrasound layouts from my pregnancy 2 years ago. I scrapped them when I was still pregnant, but just got around to taking pictures of them. The title in the first layout was stamped and the B in baby was a foam stamp with paint. I distressed the edges with orange ink. The title in the second layout was done with the Xyron Personal Cutter. I used it once on this layout, HATED it, and took it back and got the Cricut, which I LOVE!!! I kept the journaling private, as it was personal. The ribbon saying It's A Boy came from A.C. Moore. The stickers are Me And My Big Idea. Thanks for looking!! Have a great day!!

Pregnant Layouts

These are layouts of me when I was pregnant. That was 2 years ago!! Doesn't seem like its been that long! I just got around to doing these layouts about a month and a half ago. The font in the first layout was Cuttlebug's Olivia font set. The pea pod was Cricut's New Arrival Cartridge. The second layout I used Cuttlebug's Baby Face font. The flower is from a Cricut cartridge(I don't remember which one). The pregnant lady was Cricut's New Arrival cartridge. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!!

So I changed my blog template. I'm not sure if I like it or not. It also took away some of the stuff I had on the side where my profile is. I am about to fix that. Hopefully, I will have some stuff to post tonight! I'm in the process of taking pics of all my layouts. So I should be able to post some of those tonight! Have a great day!
