Spring

These papers from Authentique is so gorgeous!  I did this layout for the Design Team at The Crafty Scrapper.  I found this sweet little photo of my granddaugher Paityn and she was about 2 months old and it was taken on Easter.  Isn't she cute!!!  I love the background paper with the pretty flowers and then I reversed the brown paper with the dots. 

 I then took other papers and using Martha Stewart circle cutter I cut out 3 sizes of various papers from Authentique and then punched them with Martha Stewart Deco Fan Punch.  I then glued them to the polka dot paper. On this photo you can see how I bent the punch up after using distress ink on them.  You can also see how I used strips of paper to make a ribbon effect by the flowers.  I also cut out the little bunny twice and attached them on top of each other to give a 3-D effect.









I also had from Liquitex their modeling paste and did the pretty loves at the bottom.  Once they dried I added from Adirondack dabber - Willow paint.  I also put the photo a small tabs so it could fit on top of the punches.  I was going to write her name but found in my stache these cute little alphabets and I put them together using string.   This was a lot of fun putting this layout together.  It took me about 4-5 hours to complete and I rather like it myself!!

Here are the items that I used on this project:

Authentique - Hope Colleciton - Custom Paper, Adorn Paper, Hope Paper
Tim Hotlz - Distress Ink - Vintage Photo
Martha Stewart - Circle Cutter, Deco Fan Punch
BoBunny - Flowers, Pearls
Prima - Flowers

Love Life

This is a card I made for the Design Team at The Crafty Scrapper.  I have said this once before but I need to say it again...I really struggle making cards and this one is no exception.  I think it does look ok but I had rather work on a layout or a mini album!!  LOL  Anyway, I used BoBunny - C'Est La Vie Collection - Voila Paper.  I did cut it out into 3 various pieces and added from Fabscrap this little fence which I used a dabber to add a light green color.  I used a butterfly punch, colored them and then stamped each one to give it a softer feel.  

Here are the items that I used:

BoBunny - C'Est La Vie Collection - Voila Paper
Fabscrap - Fence

Baby Boy

I was given this sweet little album to do for the Design Team at The Crafty Scrapper.I used the paper with the baby stroller and copied it twice and cut it out.  I then adhered it to the original layer with dots.  This gave it a 3-D look.  I then added flowers, stick pins, and a metal decoration to the bottom of the page.  I then added stickles to make it shine.















Please see the other pages below!

I hope you enjoyed seeing this little mini album as much as I did making it.  It took me two days to complete.  This cute little baby is my oldest grandson Logan.  He is 12 today but I thought his little photos would be perfect for this album.

Let It Snow

This cute little picture are my sweet granddaughters...Paityn in the purple and Kenzie in the pink.  This is Christmas Day and to our surprise it started to snow.  They were very excited and they got on their little coats and went outside.  There was just enough snow to cover very lightly the yard and bushes.  Since we live in Texas it is very rare that we get any snow!

I used a blue cardstock and a light blue paper which I sprinkled with Gesso paint to make it look like snow.  I had left over a flower topping (at the left corner) which I painted with brown, pink, and white.  I then added white paint to a top of a small bottle and made the circles.  I found in my closet a piece of Corrogated cardboard which I also painted white.  I added lots of Prima flowers as well.

Here is a list of items that I used:

Prima - Flowers, With you sign
White Lace - Hobby Lobby
White pearls - Hobby Lobby
Fabscrap - Flower at top of page
White Doilie
Maya Roads - Cardboard Snowflakes
Blue & White small snowflakes - Michaels
Martha Stewart - Deco Fan Punch
