Punch Flower

These flowers were made using the scallop punch and paper snips. The leaves were make using the crimper and paper snips. The DSP is Bella Rose and if you look closely you can see that we sponged the flower to make the petals more noticeable. The second picture is a 12x12 page my sister Donna made using the card for inspiration. I placed it in a scrapbook frame from Hobby Lobby to hand in our craft room since the color (apricot appeal) matches perfectly. In Joy!

Upsy Daisy

This card was a make and take at our last demonstrator meeting. I used versamark with the Upsy Daisy set on the Riding Hood Red (Did I mention that I just LOVE this new red?). I used the new large oval punch and the horizontal slot punch (with does not have to be perfectly straight). I put dimensionals behind the oval and also sponged the edges. In Joy!

The following samples are made from materials that can be used in a workshop for a 6x6 scrap book page or a 3x6 card. In Joy!

Handwriting Font

I forgot to mention on this post that I used my Custom Handwriting Font purchased here. I just love being able to use my handwriting "at it's best" and not worry about mistakes. Perfect everytime! I can't wait to get this done with my children as their writing changes thru life! I have even thought of doing it to pass down my mom & mother-in-laws handwriting as well. Wouldn't that be great for a heritage album? In Joy!

Celebrate Freedom

This is a scrapbook page I did for Shelli Gardner's Blog August Challange. I am so proud of my 19 year old brother for his courage in joining the United States Marines. I used Night of Navy, Riding Hood Red and Sahara Sand. I also used The Tearing Edge to make the red stripes, what fun! I wish you could see the dimension of this page because it really adds to the overall look. I used my Classic Stars Wheel and The Free and The Brave stamps with both star punches. In Joy!

Willson's Potty Chart

Yes, It's a Potty Chart. My youngest son needed some incentive so here it is. The stamp set is from Gina K and the cardstock from Stampin UP. Each of the paper rolls are backed with magnet and are colored coded (maybe that really doesn't need any more explaining, lol). Anyway, he was excited to see that Mom made something special for him while he was gone camping with his grandparents. I mounted it on 12x12 cardstock so I can put it in his scrapbook later. In Joy!

Accordian Brag Book

I made these accordion brag books as a Mother's Day Gift for my Step-Grandmother, Mother-in-law, and my Mother. (Of course I put different pics in each one.) I just love the Afternoon Tea DSP paper from the Occasions Mini! This book was for Lucille, my Step-Grandmother.

This cutie is my son Willson, the only one who made a decent individual picture.
These are my Children with my Husband, Bud and also with my Step-Grandmother, Lucille.
Are you wondering why I used a picture of my Husband rather than myself? Well, I am always behind the camera (mostly on purpose)! He loves her like a mother so I knew she wouldn't mind. In Joy!
