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!

Romantic??? Maybe...

Well, the challenges keep rolling in. I must admit, I'm really grateful for the challenges because they make me stretch creatively. And this one was definitely a stretch. We were to make a 5 X7 romantic or nostalgic card. That was it. Seems simple, but it was hard for me. Initially, I couldn't come up w/ anything, but thanks to my desire to play with my new Cricut Design Studio software, I was able to make a card that wasn't the regular square or rectangular shape. How awesome to be able to make a card in ANY shape!!! Not only that... I was able to use two different carts and weld shapes and fonts then cut as one piece. This could be so much fun... Anyway, to build on the romantic theme, I made a heart shaped card. The closed and open views of the card are pictured below...

Enjoy!
