2 cute 4 words!

Here's a set of pages I came up with for a little beginner's scrapbook class last Saturday. I had the worst time coming up with a title for these pages! It was terrible! I even had to enlist the help of Christine, and we came up with what we both agreed was a super cute title idea.

This is not it.
Supplies used: Making Memories papers, cardstock, ribbon,

Ha, ha, ha! You see, I then ran our super cute title idea by one of the ladies who would be attending the class, and she thought it was weird didn't care for it. Soooo... back to the ol' drawing board I went. In the end, everyone loved the pages and we all had really fun afternoon!

Sparkle's Christmas Card Challenge week 29

Sparkle's Challenge this week is a sketch challenge. I LOVE card sketches! The hardest part of making cards for me is figuring out the layout, so I love it when the thinking is already done for me. This little guy is an image I got from Sparkle several months ago. Not sure who he belongs to, but he is quite a cutie! Thanks for the challenge Sparks!

Gone Fishin'

On Father's Day, Sammy had fun hand-delivering this little card and a tin of some favorite cookies to my dad. It's funny, when I was making this little card, I thought to myself how much this did not represent the way I think of my dad. He doesn't fish or hunt or do any really outdoorsy things. He's an athlete through and through. He's played baseball since he was a kid and has been a coach for our local high school ball teams for over 40 years. He loves it and the kids love him. I do remember him taking my brother and me to one of those little u-fish, trout farms when we were really little. I also remember catching a wee little trout and then shrieking in terror at that same wee little trout. I prefer my experience with fish to be limited to the breaded and fried variety, thank you.

Riley in pink?

Who says real men real moose can't wear pink? I love that little Riley is so versatile and looks good in any color. This little image is perfect for baby themed projects and I whipped up this little card the other day. Seriously though, could Riley ever not look adorable?

Busy Little Ducks

Here's another set of pages for a custom ordered baby album I made earlier this year. I made sure to use lots of bright colors as requested for the new mommy. She wanted a 2 page spread for both everyday playing pics as well as some from baby's bathtime. Viola! I really love how the bubbles and the tub turned out. You've just gotta love those chubby little ducks!

Thank you Anya card

When I first saw this image, Sparkle and I disagreed on whether Anya's hair should be red or blond, whether her apple should be green or red...Well, Sparkle was right,lol. Red hair, green apple is quite cute.

Happy Wednesday!

Another Bella Baby Card

I found this in one of my files and thought I'd share it today. I made this at the beginning of the year for one of the ladies at church to give to her at her baby shower. She was so funny about making sure EVERYONE knew that she HATED pink and that her daughter would only be wearing lavendar. Unfortunately for her, I'd already picked up something for the baby months earlier and it was very, very pink. But hey at least her card was the "correct" color! She actually ended up loving both the gift and the card, so no worries.
