Sweet Sweets Card

This fun card was create for Kim B.'s sketch challenge over at Paper Craft Planet on 4-10-10. I used Heidi Grace papers and my own digi stamps!


Home Sweet Home

"LOVE GROWS HERE"

This home was made with a chipboard shape house and a chipboard scalloped flower with the bottom cut off. I used all Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday patterned papers. Three little brads, heavy gauge wire, Martha Stewart alphabet stamps and CTMH ink. And sealed with Mod Podge. I think I will give it another coat of Mod Podge and punch a hole in the top for a wire hanger so it can be a wall hanging.



You're Purrfect

This mini scrapbook album for cats was created with some old papers and embellishments that I had. It really came together quickly and so adorable. It has six pages, for some reason I haven't figured it out yet why, but the other two images came out sideways, so I didn't show them all. This item will not be in my etsy shop, because it's already been sold.


Sweet Framed Birds

Happy Saturday!! It's a beeauutiful day!!

Here is a picture frame from Ikea that I bought many moons ago. I think it's been painted on three times now. Well this time it's permenant. I was going to put it on my Etsy shop and decided that if it didn't sell I would just keep it for myself. Then my daughter visited and she wants it. So, I'm gladly giving it to her. I have three more of these frames I could make another one.

What I did here was stamped the little images in black on a piece of cardstock and then again with out reinking it and stamped it with the remaining ink. I'm not sure if it's called second generation stamping technique? Please correct me if I am wrong. I liked the lighter color with this stamps and just matted with a Citron and Eclipse Black cardstock from Wausau Paper. I was thinking that a little frame of each of these images would be cute as a trio of frames on a wall. Hmmm...just might do that. :D

Easter Basket

This easter basket is made with a wooden box from Christmas. Recycling is so fun. Are you like me and save every little box, bag, packaging, etc. Is this hoarding? Maybe?? But my house is clean and everything is put away so not a problem here, right? This cute image of a mommy duck with her babies is a Polly Craft Design (freebie). I couldn't pass it up.

You Make Me Happy

Sweet Valentine Box

I am just lovin the Cosmo Cricket "Everafter" paper. Here is another project that I made up. I first made a circle card but was not happy with it. So, I took it apart and made the card into a circle box. Since I had the top circle machine stitched I did the same to the band circle. The circle isn't as perfect as I would like it to be but for being a first try it looks okay. It's definitely for a woman!
