SRM Stickers

A couple months ago I won a great prize package of stickers on the SRM Stickers blog. Like the Webster's Pages, they have just been sitting in my scrap room. Yesterday I pulled them out and created some cards. I love the clear background of these stickers and they are great for card sentiments.

Webster's Pages

A few months ago Webster's Pages had a warehouse box sale and I couldn't resist. Of course, the box has been sitting on the floor of my scrap room since then but I decided to actually use some of the product last week. I used the "b" sides of the papers (because those front sides just scare me :)) along with a few embellishments from the box to make these simple layouts.

Bo Bunny and Circles

After a short sabatical, I am back and blogging. It's been a busy couple months but I am back creating and posting on my blog.

I created this layout for Bo Bunny's Layout Challenge to be inspired by circles. I used a couple of photos of my cute boy Saffron (who just happens to match the Forever Fall paper line perfectly) and some die cut circles, buttons and jewels.

Bo Bunny Layout Challenge

The current Bo Bunny Layout Challenge is to use Noteworthy. I will say I have taken these larger Noteworthy pieces out a few times and tried to use them but they seemed so large. They worked perfectly on this layout though as sort of a photo mat.

I also used the Starting Points Challenge on the Sweet Peach Crop Shop blog.

Basic Grey and Sweet Peach Crop Shop Blog Challenges

The September 30th Basic Grey blog challenge is to create a layout with 3 photos, 3 pattern papers, and 3 brads. I created this layout with Life is a Party papers and letter stickers. I also used some Basic Grey Basics stickers and Marrakech brads.

This layout is also for the Sweet Peach Crop Shop crop office supply challenge. I used a library card to hold the title and the Basics sticker in the upper right corner is lined like school paper.

Along with the cute tags below made with Bella Blvd.'s Christmas Wishes line, I made a couple of cards.

Christmas Tags and Twine

These cute tags were made using the Bella Blvd. Christmas Wishes line...don't you just love those cute penguins? I made these for The Paper Variety's favorite embellishment challenge. I love baker's twine and seem to have been using it on a lot of my layouts and cards lately.

Scrapbook {Express}ions Challenge

This week’s challenge at the Scrapbook {Express}ions blog is a recipe challenge. Since a lot of you are busy with kids back to school, I’ll make this easy and let you decide if you want to make a card or a layout. Your project must contain: (1) a rubon (I know you all have them hiding in the depths of your stash….dig one out), (2) bling or pearls, and (3) ribbon, twine or string. You may use as many other items as you like. I hope you will join us in this challenge.



This card also qualifies for this week's challenge at The Paper Variety to use thread.

Margarita Time!!!

No, not my favorite south of the border beverage, but this bright and cheery American Crafts Margarita collection. I was at a crop recently and Margarita was one of the sale specials, so I decided it was the perfect time to stock up on some of this fun, bright and cheery collection.
