For Baby

This was a quick card I made for my cousin's baby shower. She isn't due for another month but the doctor said in could be any day now!! Azelyn came with me to the shower and when my Dad asked her how the "Baby Party" was, she said " Good, but the baby didn't come out" ): Dad thought that was pretty funny (:

All products are CTMH except for the punch (SU) and the ribbon . I used Sophia paper and the Baby Love stamp set. I used the Mojo Monday sketch as my inspiration for this one,

Chickwawa -Scrap & Stamp

This weeks challenge at Scrap & Stamp is a Sketch!! Thanks Vickey, for the fabulous inspiration!! If you would like to play along with us just use this sketch as your inspiration, and be sure to use a stamp somewhere on you layout!!


I followed the sketch fairly close but when I was putting the title on, it worked better if a reversed the pages.
These pics are from Easter. My sister in law had just got a new Teacup Chihuahua and the kids fell instantly in love!! Even Lee, who says we're not getting a dog, was loving it! They almost had their Aunty Kelly convinced that she should hand over the dog and let them take him home. The title I used came from Azelyn, she couldn't stop talking about the Chickwawa (:




Most of the products I used were CTMH. This is the 3rd layout I did using the Lucky paper pack (I'll post the others once I have a chance to take pics) The stamp I used for the title was Baroque Alpha.The only thing not CTMH was the Tim Holtz grungeboard.


Have a fabulous weekend!! I can't wait to see what you create!!

My Princess

 These pictures likely aren't what you were expecting but I just thought it would be so much fun to use them (: When I showed these pages to Kieran he thought they were pretty funny!
 I started this layout at a crop I went to yesterday but I had to finish them at home this morning because I didn't realize I needed my liquid applique to do all of the cute little dots. This is CTMH's Sweetheart WOTG. The kits come with everything you need to make 4 pages and 6 cards (other than your inks and blocks) and they are perfect for day crops when you don't want to overpack. I think this was the lightest I've ever traveled to a crop (:
 All products used are CTMH. I had to adjust a few things to make it work for my pics but other than a few paper size changes I followed the instructions in the guide.

 Enjoy Dana (: I posted this one right away just for you!!

Scrap & Stamp Challenge - Old Supplies

 This week's challenge at Scrap & Stamp is to use up some of your old supplies. So take out that paper you've been hoarding, or maybe some bling you just can't stand to part with and whip us up a layout (: Just don't forget to use a stamp!!
 This October Afternoon paper has been in my stash for a bit, along with the CTMH chipboard and ribbon. The title was done using my new CTMH pennant alphabet, I absolutely love it!!! Anyone recognize the title??
 These pictures are of Azelyn and Aidan singing happy birthday to Kieran!!! They are such funny kids (:

To Do List

 So I did it again!!! I made this card for my Mom with the chocolate theme so that I could enter it in CCT chocolate challenge. I thought I had until 8 tonight to post it but it was 8 pm in Europe so once again I missed my deadline ): I can hear you laughing Roxy!!
 Anyway, it was still fun to make and I think my Mom liked it (: I got to use my new House Mouse stamp and my new SU chocolate stamp so all is good!! The dp is BG, cs is CTMH, flowers are random, MS punch, cuttlebug embossing folder and copics (: I just got these new chalk inks so decided to try them out to shade the background. It didn't turn out exactly how I had it pictured but there was no turning back!!

Queen of Bling

 These are pics of Azelyn on her birthday. She loves to get all done up (: The little purple shoes and outfit were all gifts for her birthday.
 I don't remember what brand the paper is?? I picked it up from Deb and Alison at O.C. Scrapbookers quite awhile ago. I thought it was so pretty and I would find somewhere to use it (: The butterfly bling is Zva and the other one is just $ store. Cardstock, ribbon and stamps are CTMH, and I used the MS butterfly punch and border punch. My sweet friend Stacey did the stitching on the ribbon for me (:

 

Have a fabulous National Scrapbooking Day!!!!
