To Mom... with Love


Created for the card challenge at Scrapping the Moments.
This is a photo of my mother, taken in the 50's, when she was pregnant with me!! She loved to craft and was always making things with, and for, us. In fact, I still have a little Zoo book she made - I will post that later this week.
I believe that I got my love of making things from her.

Basic Grey Challenge


I used Kioshi to create my BG Easter card. Love the soft colors of this line!! The chick and doily ribbon are also Kioshi. The pink letters are Thickers and I created the "straw" for a nest from a blue scrap I had.

Artiscape 2011 ATC


And the title pretty much says it all - lol!!! This is the ATC I created for Artiscape this year. Cutting the image out was the hardest part - luckily I only had to make 4 of them; this ATC was just for the other women I went with. We had our own little trading session in Columbus.

"My Core'dinations Creative Frenzy"




Core'dinations cardstock + sanding = Fun!! I have been busy embossing and sanding Core'dinations cardstock all week.
My first layout has an embossed banner and leaves. I just love this photo of my great-nephew Milo. The colors of the cardstock match wonderfully with his gnome outfit!!
I really like the effect I got with the red flower on the card I made. No embossing on this one. I just sanded the edges and I love the worn, soft look it got. It looks like red velvet to me.
My last layout has a sanded background with embossed squares that the photo is mounted on. This layout features one of my favorite pictures of my daughter at the zoo.
I love using Core'dinations cardstock!!!
