Bling, Flowers, and Distress Ink

Here is my weekly card for The Shoe. And our challenge this week was to use Bling, Flowers, and Distress Ink.

Here's my card.



Flowers: Patterned Papers Distress Ink: Inked Edges Bling: Butterfly Bellies

Unfortunately, you can't really see my "bling" in these pictures. But, I used my stickles for the butterfly bodies. Hope you all have a wonderful Friday! Enjoy.

Cutting Down the Tree

Well, I'm back kind of late today ladies!
Let me start out by saying my laptop died yesterday! :( So unfortuneately, I don't get to use my photo editor that the laptop came with. I'll be looking for one that I can use instead of this dreaded paint!! Here is my next 2-pg layout of the week! :)
This is the Echo Park Christmas Time line. Because as you all know... I LOVE ECHO PARK!
This layout was very simple and easy to assemble. I used 5 4x6 photos. Matted those photos on coordinating cardstock. The patterned paper is one whole 12x12 sheet that I cut sort of off-centered. Some ribbon that I thought held the Christmas-y theme was tied around 2 of the photos and adhered behind my date label. The journal card is off of the journal card paper that comes with the collection pack. I then attached alternating red/green brads to every other circle on the top and bottom of the journal card. 2 circles were cut from coordinating patterned papers with my beloved Nesties. And, last but not least, the tree embellishments are from a pack of Jolee's dimensional stickers that I dug out of me Christmas stash!
I hope this inspires some of you guys, and feel free to scraplift this easy-peasy sketch!!!




Enjoy.

I used my Spellbinders Nestabilites and Cricut Hoot~N~Holler Lite Cartridge.
Pretty quick and simple card. I enjoyed using this cartridge so much I might go back and make some more :)
Have a good weekend.

Pretty in Pink! :)

My first 2 page layout of the year. Unfortunately I do not have as much time as I would like to scrapbook. My daughter only takes one 2 hour nap a day. But, I also go to school full time! At the beginning of the year I set a goal to complete 4 layouts a week. Which I was doing really good at achieving. Then school started, laundry piled up, and dishes needed to be put away. LOL. I've decided, If I do anything scrap related during the week I'm a happy camper :)

This is my daughter at 6 weeks old. These pictures are about a year old. But, its hard for me to get my mojo going when it comes to 5x7 and 8x10 professional pictures. Anyways, that's what I came up with.
