French Frog!!!

My new post is up over at Scrapbook Star. Wanna see what I made this time? I made this adorable little corner bookmark for my daughter. She is turning out to be just like her mama and papa! She loves to read and often has her nose in a book, but unfortunately she keeps losing her place or grabbing any little piece of paper or even a ruler to mark her spot in the book! So I figured why not make her a book mark?

I honestly don't know who makes this adorable little stamp. I received a few years in a stamp swamp, and the person from whom I got the image from forgot to write who made it. On the back of the bookmark I wrote a little message just for my daughter.
Hope you like it! If you have made any similar to this or give this one a go, I would to see what you made!

Thanks for stopping by, hope you can come back soon!

A little scrappy time!

My poor daughter has been sick the last two days. So while she slept I got to do a little scrapping.
Here are a few cards that I was able to make for some challenges.

The first card was made for the Magnolia-liscious blog challenge (http://magnolia-liciouschallengeblog.blogspot.com/). We were challenged to use browns and blues.


A close up of the flowers, I made the little buds with some precut paper flower (the flat kind) and then used my starburst Sakura pen to glitter them up!! I love this pen, I just wish I could find another one like it!

This second card was made the challenge over at Catch the bug (http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/) where they asked to use spots and dots. Unfortunetly I am too late to submit this one. But it is one more card for my stash!




Thanks for stopping by, hope you will come back soon.

No image!!! Oh My!!!

Over at Paper Secrets (http://papersecrets.friendhood.net/forum), they are hosting a challenge every week that is called Card Your Ass Off! This is week two and they have this wonderful sketch with which to work with.
 And this is the card that I made for it!
While I was making it, I realised that I was going to have a VERY difficult time with this one. There really wasn't anyway to work in a stamped image! GASP!!! But then I came across the challenge over at Fab'N'Funky (http://fabnfunkychallenges.blogspot.com/) their new challenge is to TRY SOMETHING NEW. So there it is a card with no stamped image! And please trust me when I say...........This was a Challenge for me!!!LOL!

Happy Valentines!

Well it's amazing how quickly Valentine's Day has come. Tomorrow is the big day of Red! Normally we don't do much for this holiday. I will usually make a little something for the kids with a little treat inside.
Here is what I made this year for the kids.

Over at Scrapbook Star, it was my turn to make a LO for the blog! Here is what I came up with.

Can you believe that most of this LO is from the example sheet you find at the front of a Paper Pack Collection? I love how it turned out!
Thanks for coming by and taking a look!
