More Christmas

And some more Christmas... These are also using the Simple Stories December Documented line. The wooden snowflakes are Studio Calico. On the layout I just left them natural, for the card I sprayed them with Smooch Spritz.

 

Naughty and Nice







Merry Christmas Card

Christmas Time

Time for some Christmas... I made this card and page using the Simple Stories December Documented collection. Simple Stories are so fun to use! Just cut them up and away you go! Fastest mini albums ever, especially if you use the photo pages.

I have another page and card created with this collection, but I have to take pics still... I'll be back with them soon :)

PS...the cute little snowman brads are from Tina also!

Peace Love & Joy Card

Santa!

I hope your holidays were as wonderful as ours were!

Summer Cards

I guess it's about time I get posting again! Life has been busy, I got a part-time job and now time is very limited!

Here are 3 cards I did with the Pebbles party pool paper and stickers line.

I have done a couple of Christmas projects, so I'll be back with those soon...

More Christmas

I did a couple more layouts and a card with the gorgeous Imaginisce Christmas Cheer line.

Christmas Joy card - I used the Joy die cut and cut out the "Christmas" and poinsettas from the paper.

Christmas Baking page - the paper with all the strips is perfect for cutting some banner pieces. The big gingerbread girl is a die cut the other ones and the cookies I cut out of the paper.

Merry & Bright page - brads are Doodlebug and Eyelet Outlet. 2 big die cuts are Imaginisce, punches are Stampin' Up and Martha Stewart.

I soooo loved working with this line. Imaginisce is one of my favourites! But sadly, I have no more left. I just got some Imaginisce Good Dog papers though, so I will be working with those soon!

Valentine's Cards

Well, better late than never... Here are 3 cards I designed with the Echo Park Love Story line. The papers are great for cutting up and making quick cards. All the bling is Basic Grey.

I was very busy with design team scrapping this weekend, so there is lots more to come!!

Birthday Cards

Here are a few birthday cards I did for Tina with the Imaginisce Hello Cupcake Birthday line:

The balloons are from the Cricut Create a Critter cartridge (my fave ever!) and "Happy Birthday" is from the Wild Card Cricut cartridge.

Fall

I am loving the Simple Stories Harvest Lane line! Here are a few pages so far...

and a card using the Just Because Cards Cricut cartridge:

Christmas Again

Here are a couple more creations with the Handmade Holiday Simple Stories line. I used up just about every scrap I had!! Love this line!!

'Tis the Season Card

Art Freckles March Kit Creations

The March Art Freckles "Tweets From Nature" kit did not last long! Full of Yellow Bicycle "Twig" paper, Thickers, tickets, flowers, ribbon, canvas tags and all kinds of goodies it was one beautiful kit!! Here are my creations with it.

For You Card ~ I love the tags and ribbon that came with the kit. I put 2 of the leaf stick pins in behind so no one would get stuck!
My Best Friend Card ~ Love those corrugated Yellow Bicycle shapes! I cut up the Prima flower ribbon to make a bunch of flowers.

Jumbo Lollipops ~ I used 3 of the kit tags on this page and in keeping with the round lollipops in the pic, cut out a bunch of circles from the Twig papers.

Botanical Gardens ~ Yet another page from our trip to the botanical gardens in Montreal...I'll be done eventually!

Peek-a-Boo ~ I love these photos of my daughter and niece peeking out from behind the trees and I thought the tree paper would be perfect for the background. I cut the leaves off the satin roses and made my own out of the patterned paper.

This kit is one of my favourites (I say that a lot, but Shannon rocks at putting kits together!), hopefully you were able to get your hands on one! You can check out the rest of the Design Team's creations with this kit right HERE.

Art Freckles It's A Love Thing Blog Hop!!

It's time to do some blog hopping again! In honour of Valentine's Day on Monday, Art Freckles is having an "It's a Love Thing" blog hop today!!

For your scrapbooking entertainment and inspiration here is a lovey layout I did of my hubby and I. I combined 2 of Art Freckles kits to make it: this month's The Brady's kit (one of my fave's!) and the December 2010 card kit.






















I also made 4 Valentine's Day cards using the November 2010 card kit. It is a Christmas themed card kit, but with a few lovey embellishments from my stash (MYB, MM & Pink Paislee) I was able to do a love theme! Shows just how versatile the kits are!!
























I used one Pagemaps sketch to do all 4 cards and the sketch is Art Freckles card sketch of the month for February! You can find the sketch and the challenge thread right HERE.

The next stop on your blog hop will be the lovely Stephanie Zito right HERE. Have fun hopping and if you didn't start at the beginning...go back to Art Freckles blog right HERE. There will be a draw for a RAK from Art Freckles from everyone that posts on all the blogs today! Happy Valentine's Day!!

Christmas Gifts

I made a few Christmas gifts this year. My Mom knits gifts for people all the time, usually baby blankets...so I used a set of Stampin' Up knitting stamps to make a bunch of cards for her to give with her gifts. Here are a couple of the cards:























And I made this banner for my niece. It looks small in the photo, but it goes across the top of the door to her room. I love how it turned out!

Art Freckles January Kit Creations

Another month means another fabulous Art Freckles kit! This month's kit is called "First Kiss" and it's full beautiful Pink Paislee papers as well as Girls Paperie embellishments, ribbon, a butterfly and more! You can pick it up HERE.

I made 2 cards using the January sketch challenge from Art Freckles found HERE. The sketch is by Pagemaps.


I altered an old Making Memories package to make a cute gift box for tags and notecards.

I love when background papers don't need a lot added to them and there are lots of those kinds of papers in this kit!

The Paper Girl Sticker Market stickers come with so many different ones you'll be using them for a long time! There are the big alphas I used for "Miga", the more delicate pink alphas I used for "wear", the little tiny word stickers I used for my journalling, as well as some border stickers! And there are 2 sheets of the word stickers!!

I still have lots of the kit left, so I will probably do some more creating with it as the month goes by!

You can check out the other design team creations HERE. There will be more added as the month goes by also...

The Art Freckles January card kit is equally yummy. There are not very many left, you can find it HERE. Hopefully I will start making some cards with mine soon!

Birthday Bash

Well I have been slow to upload lately, so it's time to play catch up! All of these creations are using the Birthday Bash line by Imaginisce from Tina's Scrapbooking Creations found HERE. This line is sooooo cute!!

And a 2 pager: left side

both sides together:

Hopefully I will be back tomorrow with some more new stuff!!
