Wee Memories Challenge #20

This week's challenge was to use anything "Forest". Fawns, squirrels, mushrooms etc. I had this adorable paper and rubons that I was saving for a mini album....I borrowed a little bit! *oops* I used a CTMH acrylic card...they are so fun and addicting!

OTWC Challenge #22

I love these challenges! I get to use colors I do not normally use and it just so happens that I needed a birthday card with just these colors! (the recipient's favorites)

Up for a challenge? Come join us at Off the Wall Craftiness

I used CTMH's new acrylic cards, rasberry and black cardstock, sparkles, brads, prisma flowers...and a blast from the past -CTMH sweet leaf paper. How I love to use my stash!

Disneyland Mini Album

I have been working like a crazy women trying to get this finished for my son before we head down to visit him next week. He is such a sweet boy....(man now) and so sentimental. Loves my scrap booking and sends me items to scrap for him! This Disneyland trip was so fun...it had been years since I had been and we had a blast!

I used CTMH's buttons, sparkles, My Creations 3 Ring Binder, Cranberry, Black and Sunflower card stock, Ticket to Ride and Thrill Ride stamp sets.

Also, this is my take from a super talented CTMH consultant Tresa Black. She did tutorials showing in detail how to create a My Creations 3 Ring Binder. Check out her blog, it is amazing!

OTWC #19

I am addicted! I think I will need to limit my challenges! It really allows me to use my stash and create outside of my box...so here is my latest. I used Close to My Heart Key Lime, Baby Pink and Buttercup inks, pearls, It's a Zoo stamp set and one of the newest products-Irresistables! They are so fun...chip board that is embossed. You sponge ink and the embossing pops! Super fun to use!
