Look out! *Pretty Little Studios*

Good day! I had a page up at Pretty Little Studios yesterday. It's my first assignment from them and the page is based on a sketch (love sketches!). Here's the sketch provided:


Here's my take:


I used the 8x8 diecut from the Hopscotch collection and layered on a few of the different tags for a fun little boy page! (The Celebration Stars tags -well you're going to be seeing them in many upcoming assignments!).

Thanks for stopping in! Enjoy your day!

Joy ride

Hello! Blogger giving anyone else any troubles? Ah well, it's bound to happen! I have a page to share today. I check out Creative Scrappers weekly and loved sketch #200 this week by Kristine. So I decided to play along and here's my take:




The new My Mind's Eye lines are wonderful this season! I didn't want to use a stark white page as the background, but I am still a little unsure about what I have chosen. LOL! This also something that is bound to happen :) 

Thanks for stopping in! Have a great day!

Hello Spring *Pebbles Inc*

Good day! I have a set of cards posted at Pebbles today. Our theme this week is spring. For me spring = flowers, so I pulled out the flowers in the Floral Lane collection and went to work. I put a few dies and a machine to work...

For me, it's always fun to come up with a little scene for a card.  Lots of great patterned paper to put to use to fit the scene! Head over to the Pebbles blog to check out the other cards I created as well as all the other wonderful spring creations from my fellow team members.

Thanks for stopping in! Have a great day!

Thank you (card)

Hello! Quick drive by post :) I have loads on the go, but I can't share yet! A card I pulled together while I was sorting bits out for an upcoming scrappy garage sale.


The butterfly is cut out from Crate Paper and a new die company that I recently stumbled onto called Cheery Lynn Designs. So, so cute!

Thanks for stopping in!

Sweet little you

One last page to share from the March kit at Up the Street. I added the wooden alpha from last months kit as I am currently enjoying mixing alpha so much!




Don't you just love the wooden heart! A local woodworker created them for the kit. So cool! How could I resist such a sweet face? (Killer long eyelashes too!)

Thanks for stopping in! Hope you have a wonderful day!

For all the things you do (card)

Good day! How about a card from the March Kit at Up the Street?


Well, I do admit, that I have not really caught on to the doilie trend, but I do think that I might give it another try. Love all the detail it gives without any real work ;)

Thanks for stopping in!

Grade 1- *Up the Street kit*

Hello! Happy weekend! I have anothe layout to share from the March kit from Up the Street Scrapbooking. I decided to try scrapping a few B&W photos this time around. I do believe that life is colourful, so I tend to only scrap colour pics but it is good to mix it up every now and then!



We received this letter from Miss E in the mail. Her teacher helped all the kids in class write a letter and mail it. Best mail ever :) The B&W photo was used to help the letter stand out a little more. It is a simple page, but I am pleased with the outcome.

Thanks so much for visiting! Have a great weekend!
