Robot lunch box



Here is a little something I made a while back for my friend, Lorie's, little boy who was turning one!  I didn't even know it but it just turns out that she LOVES robots!  :)  Speaking of Lorie, she is an amazing photographer and also very creative!  If you are looking for something cute you should check out her Etsy store!  Anyway, this was just a little gift for her adorable son Henry.  I thought maybe he could use it to keep some little toys in or something, and mom could use the mini album to fill with pics from his b-day party or his second year.  I used almost all Cosmo Cricket products and the little lunch box I picked up in the $1 section at Joanne's.

Who loves you?

Here is a card I put together this week using some scraps of Pink Paisley papers! I love this owl and the colors in these papers! I cut the wreath out of their patterned paper and used some liquid glass on the owl's eyes. Can you tell I am obsessed with this ribbon I keep using (it is just something I picked up at Michael's). Still doing my own hand stitching...really hoping to get a sewing machine for Christmas. :) Hope you are having a good day!

Mr. & Mrs.

Here is a card I did with this weeks bonus sketch from Heide over at 2S4Y.  I really liked this sketch!  I cut the love birds from my Basic Grey paper then added some Stickles, a jewel, and ribbon to make it a little more glamorous!

Congrats...


Here is a card I made this week using Kazan's sketch from 2S4Y.  I made it a to be a wedding card to give to a bride and groom, but when my husband saw it he said he thought it looked more like a graduation card.  Oh well, guess it could go either way.  I just love this Basic Grey paper and these sparkly Thickers chipboard letters!

Another christmas card...



Here is another Christmas card I made recently using some KI Memories supplies that I won over on the KI memories blog!  So fun!  It is actually supplies from their "Surprise" birthday collection, but I have really gotten into this "non-traditional" Christmas card idea this year!

Peace


Here is a card I did using the CPS sketch for this week!  I know, it's kinda weird to see a butterfly on a Christmas card...but I like it!  Hope it helps brighten your day and get you into the Christmas spirit!

It's been a while...

Wow, I know, I have been missing in action the last TWO WEEKS!  Yeah, it's crazy!  I have been busy send out Christmas cards, decorating for Christmas, shopping for Christmas, making Christmas presents, etc.  Christmas is keeping me busy this month but I love it!  It is our son's first Christmas so there is something joyful about sharing in his first experience of the day Christ was born!  

Anyway, on to more scrappy stuff!  I wish I could show you some of the things I am making as Christmas presents but it would ruin the surprise if some particular family members decided to check my blog this month!  :)  So maybe I will show you after Christmas!  Although, here is a layout I did this weekend with a picture I took on Thanksgiving! I used a sketch from Becky over at PageMaps!  She is having a little contest over there you should check out!  She asked us to use her sketch to scrap something we are thankful for!  My husband and son are definitely what I am most thankful for!





All products are from Cosmo Cricket expect ribbon, button, & ric-rac are from my craft supply. And I used my Sepia writing pen from Martha Stewart Crafts for the journaling.
