Beautiful Sisters

I made this layout for the weekly challenge at Two Peas. So I used a grey cardstock from gemstones which has really nice paper and also paper form heidi grace designs. I did the flowers with ribbon, tulle and a button. I distressed the outside of the picture with a edge distresser and then inked it with Tim Holtz distress ink (tea dye). Hope you guys like it.

Scrap it with a song week 22

This layout is for the challenge at scrap it with a song. The song is Upside Down by Jack Johnson which that song is in the movie Curious George....I love that monkey! So if you go to the blog you can hear the song and it also has the lyrics. From there you can use any of the lyrics for your layout. I enjoyed this one also because I had a beautiful day as you can see, all my kids bring tears to my eyes and its because of them that I have so much love. For the letters I used the cart Plantin(but not the LOVE letters, those I bought) and a lot of bling. Well hope you enjoy!! Thanks for stopping by!

Button up for school challenge

This project I made was for the fantabulous cricut challenge. This took me a while because I had a lot of cutting and layering, which I really enjoyed. The cart I used was locker talk and scraps for everything else. I added buttons too. This is a tin that I got at Walmart for $1 at the checkout. When I saw this tin I knew I wanted to make a mini. The accordion is made from envelopes so I have some pockets like for the hall pass,and the part of the hop scotch. The two books have room in the back for journaling and so do the two crayons. Hope you like it and now to show my 5yr old Marilynn J. her mini I made thinking of her. If you notice the digi stamp in the back is from Meljens and I think it looks like her. There are a lot of pictures but I didn't want you to miss anything...hehe! Thanks for looking.
