Welcome...

So glad you chose to stop by!

I hope to use this blog to share some of my handmade cards as well as some of my scrapbook pages and maybe a few pics here and there that may or may not make it to a scrapbook page.

Scrapping for me is simply a fun hobby that I don't do often enough. More often than not, I'm a collector of all things scrap... i.e. tools, paper, embellishments...

Now to become motivated... Maybe this blog is just the way to do it...

Enjoy and come back SOON!

Friendship… 2S4Y Kazan #18

Here’s a card based on Kazan’s Sketch # 18 over at the 2 Sketches 4 You site. I found this Friendship quote a while back. I saved it because I knew it would be a great sentiment for a card. The card was pretty simple to do. I used my Cricut for the die cuts.

Welcome Baby… Baby Dress Card

I was asked to create a card for a coworker who just had a baby girl. I love making shaped cards so I decided to create a card in the shape of a little dress. It was easy to do with my Pazzles machine. The dress is a font called “DB Sweet Baby Clothes”.

My coworkers were really pleased with the card so I’m happy too…

Swirls and Bling... 2S4Y Laura’s Sketch 17

This birthday card is based on yet another 2 Sketches 4 You card sketch. I’m glad I’ve had a little time to play along. I’m enjoying it while I have the chance!

Anyway, the scallop circle as well as the circle was done with the Cricut. I decided to add a little hybrid flair by using some digital brushes to make the swirls on the circle as well as the bottom of the card.

Well, another card down many more to go!

BLESSINGS... 2S4Y Kazan Sketch 17…

Had so much fun last week @ the 2 Sketches 4 You site that I decided to do it again. I loved the sketh this week because it gave me a reason to use what I LOVE -- Scallops! Well, that’s it for now.

Until next time,
