Another card to share...

Well, I've been doing housework instead of scrapping today (I know, why would I do that right?), but I did get another card done during breaks. Simple, but sweet. :)

Supplies: Basic Grey Paper Pad - Lemonade; Fiskars Scallop Border Punch; Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch; Colorbox Chalk Ink - Chestnut Roan; Hero Arts Clear Stamps - Thinking Of You; Recollections Pearls

I'm headed of to do some laundry now, but I'm hoping I'll get some more cards done later. Maybe after the girls are in bed. ;) Thanks for looking!

Mojo Monday Card

I decided to play along with Mojo Monday's sketch this week and I am LOVING how the card turned out! I really like being able to look at a sketch and have an idea pop into my head, which is exactly what happened for this card...

Ok, I'm off to create some more. With over a foot of snow outside, I've definitely got an excuse to do nothing but scrap, lol! Thanks for looking. ;)

Just a few cards...

I worked on some cards today. The first two are new, but the others were made a while back. I just redid a few things on them like removing frayed ribbons, fixing measurements, adding some ink, etc. They weren't posted on my blog anyway for some reason, so I'll share them all now. :)

BoBunny is having a card challenge on their blog right now and it's so simple! All you have to do is use their paper and use hearts on your card. Easy right?

Finally!

I got my scrapping mojo back today! ;) I haven't done a layout since the 5th, ugh. That's not normal for me and I was definitely having withdrawls. I just couldn't seem to do anything about it though. Every time I'd pull out a picture or some papers to get started, I'd get total scrapper's block. NOT a fun feeling at all. Thankfully today though, when I pulled out this picture, I instantly knew what papers I wanted to use for it and I LOVE how it turned out!

Supplies: Sassafras Lass Paper Pad - Hog Heaven; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Brushed Corduroy; Tim Holtz Edge Distresser; Basic Grey Alphabet Letters; Making Memories Tiny Alpha Stickers - Chloe's Closet; Ali Edwards Handwriting Font

My sweet Madison sharing some kisses with her daddy. They are TOO adorable, aren't they? ;) Thanks for looking. I hope to have some more to share soon...

Gifts...

I made some Christmas gifts this year that turned out great! I would have posted before but needed to wait until they were all received first. ;) I did 4 wall hangings and 2 framed layouts. It's so nice giving a handmade gift that you can tell is really appreciated...

*My best friend Cathy, along with her hubby Adam (also my brother-in-law) and their 4 kids - Daniel, Marybeth, Hannah & Abbey. The journaling is something that was written by Cathy about what Holiday traditions mean to her. It's absolutely beautiful...

*My mom Mary and her hubby Mike. This Scripture was read at their wedding and I thought it went perfectly with this great picture of them...

*My mother-in-law Arlene (far right) visiting with her friends Polly & Harold. They are like parents to her and she asked me to make this for them, which I gladly did...

*This is a poem written by a sweet lady named Hilda, who is a dear friend of my mother-in-law, Arlene. When I read it, I was so moved and knew I needed to make her something to celebrate it...

*My baby sister Maryann and myself. She's about to turn 23 and has grown into such a responsible, wonderful person. I just love her so much and am sooooo proud of her!!

*My sister Amy and niece Kasey. They both seem to avoid my camera as much as possible, so when I got this picture of them together, I knew I had to scrap it! They really liked it so I'm happy I did...

Sorry about the pictures...they were taken at night so the colors are off a little. You get the general idea though, right? :) Thanks for looking!
