WISH Journal

Hi Everyone
Hope you all are having a lovely Wednesday. I have been very busy with work lately and haven't had much crafting time. But I wanted to share with you this WISH journal I made.

I just fell in love with this paperstack from K&Co. when I saw it. It is the Nature stack and all of the pages inside the stack coordinate. I used one of the $1 stamps from Michaels and coordinating ribbon for the bow. I took a $1 journal from the $1 bins and turned it into this beautiful little notebook. I also used Art Philosophy for the cut with the butterfly in it. I just love this Cartridge. I bought the butterfly, it was part of the matching accessories.

Here is what the journal looked like before it's transformation.

LIFE Mini Album

Hi Fellow Crafty Crafters!

I hope you all are enjoying your Tuesday as much as I am. I am so excited today because Jinger Adams is having her design team call over at Jinger's Blog, and I decided to make this mini album to apply for the team.
 I found this gorgeous K & Company paperstack at Joann's and I just had to use it. But you know when you get a paperstack and only some of the papers are cute? Well every page in this book was so awesome I knew I had to make an album to enjoy every page! LOL!

This is a 6 x 6 Mini Album

I just love the butterflies on this front cover. I used Art Philosophy for the circle cut and the butterfly is from of the coordinating accessories from K & Company. The paperstack is called Nature.

I thought this paper was so beautiful, I tried not to decorate it too much because I did not want to cover up the original design.

I put a pocket on this 1st page for memorabilia and left a photomat on the other side. I also used Art Philosophy for these pages.

Some of this paper was so hard to cover because it is so beautiful!

I got that cute little envelope from a SMASH swap I was in, and I thought it just looked so awesome on this page.

This is the back page of the album. So what did you think? Isn't this paper just gorgeous!

SMASH Pages

Hi there!

I know I am a little late on sharing these SMASH book pages but I thought now is better then never. LOL! Ok all joking aside, I have been really busy with work sinc Tax Season started but the good news it there are only 6 more long yucky weeks! LOL! But I will be back to normal then with more frequent posts.

I was in a SMASH swap with some of my Canadian Circle Friends and I wanted to share the pages I made to go to them. I did receive pages in return, but I do not have permission from the all yet to share them.
We made pages that were 5.5 x 8".

This is the front page of a 2 page layout. I made the tag with the CM Tag punch, and the white paper is a tab to put on the edge of the page.

We are all in the Circle so I thought it would be fun to make a circle page we could all SMASH. This is a double page layout. I used the Cricut Everyday cartridge and my imagine and filled in all the circle heads with different imagine cartridges and shades of pink.

This is the back side of my page. I used the CTMH stamp set 10 Things, added a pocket to the page and a decorative paperclip.
I hope you like it. I made 10 of these to swap with and in return got 10 pages back from everyone. It was actually a lot of fun making these for everyone and then seeing all the wonderfully talented ladies works of art sent back to me.

Baby Banner

Happy Saturday everyone,

Hope you all are having an awesome Saturday. I have to work today, but I wanted to share with you all a baby banner I made a couple of weeks ago at a crop I went to. I have been really busy with work lately and haven't had a lot of crafting time, so I was so excited to finish a project. LOLs!

I made this banner with the trusty coasters I love to get at Michaels. I also used the New Arrival and Birthday Bash cartridge for the cuts. I used DCWV Baby cardstock for the paper to cover the coasters with. I just love how it turned out and thought these would be perfect for my friend who are prego right now.

Come back Monday, I am sharing some pictures of some SMASH pages I made for a SMASH swap I was in.

Sending you love card and mini album.

Happy Sunday everyone!

I don't know what happened last week but I had some posts ready to post and they did not post. This darn blogger sometimes. LOL! I have so much fun last Saturday at my crop.  I love to get together with all of my crafty friends and catch up with each other. I didn't really get too much crafting done but I had a great time.
I did get two baby banners done that I will share with you later this week (I still have to take pictures).

I wanted to share with you today a card and mini album I made for my Grandma. She is feeling pretty down right now. My Grandpa has had Alzheimer's disease for sometime now, but it had gotten really bad and last week she had to put him in a nursing home. I can't imagine what she must be feeling right now, they have been marry for over 60 years so I know it must be hard on her.
I thought I would make her this cute little card and mini album I made with the Yourstory mini.

I used the Preserves cartridge for the watermelon and DCWV Sweet Treats paper pack.

I used the Once Upon a Princess cuttlebug folder for the front of this album.
One more thing I wanted to share with you all. I am sure you heard that Jinger Adams is no longer at PC but she has a new blog and she is coming out with a new shoe line. How awesome is that? Here is a link to her new blog Jinger Adams. I had the pleasure of meeting Jinger in UT 2 years ago and she is just a sweetheart.  I wish her the best of luck in her new endeavors.

More Tags

WOOHOO it Friday!

Tomorrow I am going to a crop and I can't wait to go play with all my cropping pals. I thought I would share the last of the tags I made for the tag swap I was in. 

I used Sophie on this tage and the stamp is from My Pink Stamper

This one is for Mari Gras, I used Chic & Scary for the mask and then covered it with glitter, I was trying to find gems and bling to put on this one, I search my house up and down for Mari Gras beads (which I always seem to have except when I needed them LOL!) but instead found this green necklace in my daugthers room and cut it up. Don't worry she doesn't even know its gone! LOL!

This one is a birthday one.

Another Birthday one, I used CCR and my Imagine for the center piece and the stamp again is from My Pink Stamper.

Tag Swap!

Hi Everyone

I wanted to share with you some of the tags I made for a tag swap I was in. I made all of these tags as 3.25 x 6.75 inches. The two I will be sharing today is the Valentine Tag and the St. Paddy's day tag. This is really the first time I have tried to make tags so they were a bit of a challenge but I had fun making them.

I used hearts from Simply Charmed but did not do the layers.

I used Simply Charmed on this one and a grass punch I had. The stamps are Studio J stamps from Michaels.
