Today I have 2 projects to share with you. The first is a digital layout I actually did a while ago....but I had to share it because I used Ecc. 4:9-10 on it and that is our theme for today's blog hop!! This layout showcases the wonderful friendship two of my children have with each other.
My next project is a cute little card I made with the inkadoo stamp Sweet Friends, the paper is SEI and the base is bazzill kraft paper. I punched the butterflies with a Martha punch and embossed with clear powder.
Now it's time to move on to the next stop on our hop.....Thena at Delightfully Digital! I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop and come back and visit me some time!
May God be glorified through all we do every day!! Blessings to you!!

Hi all, sorry I've been MIA lately....I've just been really busy!! I have some cards and layouts to share hope you enjoy!!
Here are a couple of cards I made using this weeks sketch over at CPCM. I've been lazy about posting those sketches on the blog....I need to get back to doing that....hopefully next week!
I did this one for this weeks sketch over at 52 sketches....I used all products from Scarlet Limes October kit...
I just posted the sketch over at CPCM so head on over and join in the fun! I created a card this week with the sketch..

I was so excited to get to create some things for our friends baby shower....She works at the stable with my girls and so we decided to make her some cute onsies with a rocking horse on them....I just created the picture and text in word and we used inkjet t-shirt transfer paper to get it onto the onsies! Sooo easy and they are absolutely adorable!! I altered a box I had to put them in and made a matching hanging tag!
I also altered a wooden door hanger and then I followed a tutorial over at the Hybrid Chick for this name banner.
There is a lot of detail that is hard to see in the banner, I took 2 close up shots to try to show some of it. I used the tutorial over at the hybrid chick but put my own twist on it. They used jump rings to put their's together but I did not have any and so I used ribbon on mine. I actually used all things I had on hand and did not buy anything extra...(I was proud of myself!!)
I finished it off with a card and bag and it came together really well!!

So it was a really crafty weekend over here....and I'm still working on my new venture so by the middle of this week I should be able to spill the beans!!!
I'll add this quick layout in that I just finished up for one of the October Mega Challenges over at the Digichick!
This is a catch up post! I was busy this week creating but did not have a lot of time to share. I made a few cards for friends this week.
This is a layout I did for the Digichicks sketch of the week
I put together this wall hanging for a dear friend that needed some encouragement.
And lastly I did this layout today for another challenge over at the digichick.
I have a couple of paper scrapped layouts that are almost done...just need some finishing touches and then I can share those as well!
We are getting back into routines around here and easing in to our school year. And just to add to the mix I signed up for Shimelles Learn Something New Everyday class that starts Sept. 1! I love Shimelles classes and can't wait to get into this one!
I even hit the scrapbook store to get a cool album for this class...It is a Maya road Chipboard album in a really neat size! I will share it soon!
Have a super weekend and happy scrapping!!

Triple the Sketch has sketch 67 up and the design team did another amazing job using it! Here is my take on the sketch for this week. Go over and get some inspiration for your scrapping this weekend! Triple the sketch. I used bazzill kraft cardstock which I am loving and using a lot lately! And just some ribbon and daisy bucket paper that I punched with my CM heart punches. The stamp is from Our Daily Bread. Simple and cute!
I am still clicking away and trying to keep up with my project 365. I decided to not do a digi album but I got this little album at Target and altered it for all my pics....now to print out the pics I have so far and get them in the album....maybe today? I like this idea a lot better, and it should be faster and easier to keep up!
This was my creation for sketch 62 over at TTS. Last week was sketch #63 and we got to play with pink persimmon stamps to help celebrate their anniversary!
This is the layout I did....it was so much fun!
The design team then made cards for Pink Persimmon to thank them for all the great stamps they sent us to play with. They really spoiled us!! Check out TTS for all the great eye candy!
Hope everyone has a scrappin weekend! And Happy 4th of July to all!!
I make and sell my cards at a childrens boutique in town....I made up some Christmas ones and just thought I would share!!
