First Bath

I have not scrapped many of my son's baby

pictures.  It was time to change that.

So yesterday afternoon I took out the patterned paper

I bought when I was pregnant I. '09 by 

Little Yellow Bicycle called Baby Safari

and got the pictures of mama giving her

first bath completed.  I die cut some sizzix

Flowers from orange cardstock to take up some

of the dead space and added faux stitching

to the triangles with my daisyds rub ons.

Yeah!  I had a lot of fun with that.

Time for Fall....cards at least

Today was just a day where I was inspired

to create a couple of cards.  The cooling weather

meant breKing out the fall stamps.  Nothing fancy

here.  Hope you enjoy!

Gone Fishing

I totally CAS'd this card:

http://www.paperintolove.com/stampin-up-wetlands-happy-birthday-card-1560/

I have had these beautiful fishing stamps from

Lasting Impressions for years, but I always struggle

making a card with them.  When I saw the inspiration

piece, I knew I had to use those stamps.  They worked

perfectly.  I stamped everything in Adirondak's slate.

The edges have some slate ink as well to add definition.

The sentiment is from Stampendous.

These three embossed lines just add a little something,

don't they?

This card is very simple and incorporated some bling 

from my stash.  The patterned paper is from a

mat pad by K&Co. called Julianne.  The butterfly 

is a sizzix die and cut from some left over patterned

paper.  The sentiment is stamped using Adirondak

Black ink.  Katie& Co. made the stamp.  The card came together

pretty easily.

Scrapbooking Time

Scrapbooking has been my focus the

Last two weekends.  These pages were a

snap.  I have been using the papers from my

For The Record kit by We R Memory Keepers.

Those pages rock!  No need for much embellishment,

though I still can't help myself.

The Love that face page has alphas from 

Momenta and are a find from Big Lots

along with the stickers from the page.

The stickers are from firefly or from the kit.

I also added a block of post it notes from a set

by Real Simple.  Those post it's could be used

for anything.

The cowboy page repeats the paper from the

kit and letters from Momenta.  I used another 

Post it and stickers from the kit.  The heart idea

came from an issue of Creating Keepsakes.  I cut

a heart out using my George cartridge and Cricut.

Then I covered the heart with scrap Papers from

Mt stash.  I added a sticker and drew stitch

lines around the heart.

I love both of these pages.  Hope you have a great

weekend.
