The promised layouts

So I've still been lagging behind in my postings, so here's a bunch of pictures to help make up for it :)

I've become a member of the design team for Created with Paper. These are the layouts that go with the video in the last post. Check out http://www.createdwithpaper/ .com



And now onto cards!! This card was the Valentine's card I made for my husband. I'd gone to visit my sister (8 hour drive away) during the Valentine's week-end & he suprised me by showing up on Valentine's day. I AM bananas about him :)

Old Olive, Certainly Celery, Barely Banana, Pretty in Pink, Sahara Sand, Certainly Celery Prints DSP, Whisper White - paper; Chocolate Chip, Barely Banana - ink; Sock Monkey, Euphoria mini alphabet - stamp sets; Heart to Heart punch, 1/4" square punch - accessories;

Me??? In the movies???

Well, not exactly in the movies. I do have a bit of a taste for over dramatics. I'm made my first YouTube video featuring a monthly kit from http://www.createdwithpaper.com/.



I'll add photos of the layouts in a couple days.
Cheers!

I have a NEICE!!

This beautiful baby is my neice Kaitlyn. There are so many boys in our family & we're all delighted to welcome our first girl. Two more weeks until I get to meet her :)
This is the name frame I made for her. I'm so totally thrilled with it!! So cool that I can actually make a pink and flowery thing!! The flower embellishments were made by stamping & embossing the flower from Delight in Life (SAB) and cutting them out. Some were stamped on two different colours of paper and the flower cut from one color & the center cut from another colour. Three have the half pearls for centers.
Ingredients:
Barely Banana textured, Whipser White, Regal Rose, Simply Scrappin' Just Delightful (SAB), So Saffron, Bashful Blue, Loves Me DSP - paper; VersaMark, Certainly Celery, Barely Banana - ink; Delight in Life, Alphabet - stamp sets; Styled Silver Hodgepodge, white embossing powder, Pretties kit 1/2 pearls, Old Olive marker, organza ribbon, Stampin' dimensionals - accessories;
