Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to look at my creations...I love making memories that I can share with my family and friends....and especially my daughters. They are my inspirations for creating a lot of these layouts. I love taking everyday ordinary things and making them into beautiful altered art. My downfall is buying beautiful papers and not wanting to use them because they are too gorgeous. LOL. Please take the time to check out my crafts, follow my blog and maybe even scraplift them and make sure you let others know where you got the idea...Love to have new followers of my blog.

Higher Daddy Higher / OCC Challenge!







Thank you for stopping by and checking my blog out...don't forget to scroll down for more of my creations, feel free to follow too...

I made this lo of my dd and dh , this was a pic from last year at Idlewild...my dd had to ride the farriswheel about 3 times in a row..she loved it..and she kept saying lets go higher...this is where I got the title..so I used this lo for the occ challenge...they are having a color challenge..see top pic for colors...or check out their blog @ http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.com/

carts I used = Pooh font for the clouds, OA for the title, I used swiss dots , and hounds tooth cb folders, used a rough sanding file for the blue paper with the swiss dots to distress (didn't show up well) ,

I also inked the clouds, journaled on bottom of paper in white gel pen (one of my favorite tools) , then I also doodled around page...and staggered the pics , used a corner punch...I think that is all.

Happy Mother's day Easel Card!





Hello everyone...I thought I would make another easel card..yeh I know another one? but I really love these...I also wanted to make it kind of springy...if that is a word?

Card recipe: Used Ds (so some of the sizes I forget)

Pooh and Friends cart for the grass

PDDU for the fence and ivy

SB for the bird

Syi for the bird house (just love it)

Stonescript for the live, laugh, love (words) (can't see to well but really pretty in person)

SB also for the accent blackout Shift R cut @ 3 1/2"

Happy cut with SB at .1/2"

WIMG for the flowers cut @ 2", 2 1/4", and 1 3/4"

I used glitter paper for the flowers and added a jewel to each one...I also used a small butterfly punch (butterflies punched out in white) and then doodled so they look like they are flying...I also doodled on the fence and the bird house, around edges of card...love to doodle and use white pen...added lace ribbon and vintage buttons...hope you enjoy!
