Birthday Card and a Christmas present

The above card I made for my grandmas birthday. She is a HUGE shoe person plus a freak for bling. I think this card is very her!! The size is 4x6. I am entering it in Bearly mine challenge, and papertake weekly challenge.

I have start really early on my Christmas presents. I know what I am making everyone by February 1st and start working immediately. I do this since I make all my gifts, tags, wrapping, and cards. Plus I am in college now. I made these super cute clothes pin magnets with scraps of patterned paper and embellishments. This gift is for my grandma as well.

Scrapbooking Saturday

Though I made three cards to send to the Tulsa store. I spent the majority of my Saturday scrapbooking. I worked on my parents wedding album, but also did a page in my husbands book.

The layout above is the layout on my husbands 25th birthday. It was the first birthday we were together for. I made him the tye dye shirt he is wearing. On the night of his birthday we went to the Iguana Cafe for a poetry reading. It was also the first time I read my poetry out loud. I made this layout for one of the July Challenges on Scrapjazz. We had to use circles and at least one border and a neutral background.





The above layout is the layout I did on Nicole walking down the aisle. I hardly ever use a patterned paper as a background paper, but I really liked the design. The man walking her is her nephew Eric. The above layout was the double pager on the ceremony. I hardly ever do two pagers but I really liked how this one turned out. This particular book will have several two pagers so I am glad I am getting the practice and the challenge. Thanks for looking!

For you cards



I made the above cards for my brother (the baseball card) and my step mom (the bird card). I bought my brother a dinosaur book at a book sale and sent it and the card to him. My step mom is getting into scrapbooking so when I went through my stash this month I put some stuff that I know she could use in a care package with the bird card. Neither of them know these are coming. I am very excited about the surprise. The bird is the first paper piecing thing I have ever done. I really like how it turned out. Thanks for looking.

Beginning Pages of Wedding Album



As a Christmas present I am doing my dad and step moms wedding album. I am very excited about it. I am designing the pages, adding the photos, and titles. All they have to do is add the journaling. I really like the simple yet elegant pages. I like the challenge of doing the layouts without the journaling. Thanks for looking.
