To the Happy Couple

Hi everyone,
Well, I joined the Peachy Keen stamp set of the month a few months back. Their stamps are super cute!
I used copic markers and paper from my stash. I just love how it came out and the non-traditional wedding colors. I also used my nestabilities which I still love!

Thanks for visiting today!

My Creative Time Guest Designer!

Hi everyone,
I am so excited to be a Guest Designer today at My Creative Time! I am a huge fan of Emma's products and own quite a bit of dies and stamps.

For my project, I used the new stamp set and die Way to Go. There are a ton of fun sentiments along with the fabulous bike stamp and die. I also used her cloud dies which are really cute.

Here is my project:
I used paper from Lawn Fawn, along with scraps from my scrap pile. I also used the swiss dots embossing folder. I just love how bright and cheerful it is. Be sure to visit Emma's store so that you can get some cute stamps of your own!

Botanical Tea Gift Boxes

Hi everyone,
I have some pics of the gifts that I gave for Mother's Day to my mom and sister. I wanted to do a video but I just didn't have time. Anyhow, I saw on the Graphic 45 blog a project where they altered the mini book boxes. I thought that they would make awesome gift boxes.


This is the box that I made for my mom. Both boxes were made using chipboard and Botanical Tea paper. I got her a necklace with all of the names of her grandchildren.


This is the box that I made for my sister. I made an insert and gave her a giftcard. I lined the inside of the boxes with velvet paper so they could use the boxes after they take the gift part out for jewelry or trinkets or money or whatever.

I think they came out great! Thanks for visiting today.

Happy Trails

Hi everyone,
One of my goals this year is to really use what I have and so that means using more of my stamps and other goodies. Before I show you today's project, I have a question for you all. What do you guys do with all of the cards and other projects you make? I do give some away as gifts and I always of course need cards for my stash but when you create a lot, you have a lot!

Anyhow, I just love Lawn Fawn stamps, super cute images but clean if that makes sense. When I went to the Scrapbook Expo this year, I picked up some cute stamps and the matching dies.

Now, I do absolutely no camping but I just love camping stamps. Makes no sense I know!

I used this cute camping paper from Echo Park that I got last year and never used. I think that it turned out very cute even though I think the car die should've cut out the windows too but that's just me!

Thanks for visiting today!
