The big day - Wedding album complete

Well the beautiful bride and the handsome groom have tied the knot so I can share what I have been working on.

 

For now I am just going to show you the album itself. Once she gets her photos in it I will borrow it and break it up into a few posts and add details details and more details.

The album turned out even better than I could have hoped and I hope you are inspired.

Quick Graduation Cards

 

I made some quick graduation cards this past weekend. These came together so fast and you can customize the colors that you need. I did the letters on the Cricuit and used the cute little graduation set in the current CTMH catalog.

Inside the card I just kept it super simple. Like I said this was a fast card. I had to make them the morning of graduation. This set is from the For Always WOTG.

Summer means proms, graduations, and weddings

For Always is the perfect paper pack for these things! My daughter is getting married at the end of this month! My other daughter graduates...this weekend, while my little one finishes up pre-school tomorrow. Wow what a June!!

Here are the invitations and the reason I have been MIA around here

I blacked out all of the details but you can still get an idea of what they looked like. I also put a band around the front of the pocket invitation.

 

In addition I thought I would share some art work from Close to my Heart using this paper pack. It is just gorgeous!

 

 

 

 

 



June Stamp Camp

Hello all - I am sorry I have been MIA I have had no creative juices for months and months. My girls have also been keeping me busy. I won't bore you with the details as I am sure I have talked about what a big year this is for my family.

Yesterday I woke up and was insired to stamp. I went into my studio and magic happened! I made four cards and I really love the way each of them turned out.

Cherry O Sugar Pie

Today I am sharing a quick Sketch-n-Scrap page, I was so happy the whole time I made it and I knew it was going to just all come together.

These are just a few photos of my girls. They are just hanging out being extra adorable. I grabbed some Cherry-O paper. I think this paper always works with girl pages.

I have actually had this level 1 kit for a while but it was white and cherry's in every other space. I decided to fill in the cherry's and I love the way it turned out. I might take a second look at some other level ones I have and use them up too. I love getting new stuff but I also try to use up my old stuff too. I am doing much better. I no longer save it for the perfect layout. If i love it I use it now cause I can buy more or use the next new must have item.

I added some bling and a date. I need to work on my journalling but at least I have the date on here. Better than nothing.

Popped up the cherry's and added more bling

Love the way the title came out. 

Here is the sketch! Isn't it super cute? I hope you will join us and play along...and use up either something brand new or something you have been holding on to forever. 

Sweet on Hexagons

 I have been playing with my new goodies and I am just in love with this new set that has hexagons in it!

The set is called Honeycomb Flair and it is super fun!! I look forward to making lots more cards and pages in the near future but first up I have this sweet little card that I made when I was inspired by a Hero Arts card that I saw on Pinterest.

The set comes with all sorts of patterns and you can mix them and match them or use all the same one. I stamped them and then cut them out. There is also an outline if you wanted to go that route. Did you also notice that little wax looking bee hive? What about the little wooden bee? Both of those can be found in the Buzz and Bumble Assortment. I also used a sparkle from the brown & tan pack to make the bee stand out a little more.

I always like to decorate the insides of my cards too.

Here is the card that inspired me.



















I hope you enjoyed my card and have been inspired to make one of your own.

Wonderful Beautiful Day

Hi everyone happy March 1st. My grandma always says in like a lion out like a lamb or in like a lamb out like a lion...so we shall see what today brings and how March makes it's exit.

I have had these photo's for a while now, well since 2011. They are special and I have been trying to find the perfect way to scrap them for a while. I am actually in August and this is from April...so see I skipped it. Until I started working on today's sketch and with the new Buzz and Bumble Workshop on the Go Kit. It was a perfect match!

I used Sunset for the base and Cocoa and then I trimmed the pattern paper. I fancy cut the embellishments from the stamp set that comes with the kit. I colored the flowers in with my very neglected Prisma Colored Pencils.



Supplies - CTMH Buzz and Bumble WOTG Kit, Brown & Tan Sparkles, Cocoa & Sunset Ink, Prisma Colored Pencils

I can't wait to see what the rest of you come up with using this sketch!!
