Hello guys. I want to share this cute quick card I made...

Thanks so much for looking. I am off to buy watermelon because I am craving it now!!!

LIFE'S A BEACH

Hello everyone. The weather here in Massachusetts got into the 90's one day this week, so I am in a summer beach mood. 

Here is a cute card I made featuring the 'beach bum octopus' pattern from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs. I put foam tape behind his two front legs to give a little dimension. I really like how the machine stitching looks on this card. It really seems to make it pop.

I added a couple of plastic beach charms in the corner to dress it up a bit. 

Thanks so much for looking. Let the summer begin :)

HANG IN THERE

Hello everyone. I just want to share a cute card that I just made.

It features the 'monkey with clover' pattern set from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs. I chose a different machine stitching than I normal do. I like it. The letters are the same rub-ons as yesterday's project. I just love how simple this card is. Thanks so much for looking. Come back tomorrow to see another cute project. I have a bunch that I am trying to finish up before the end of the month. :)

MEMORIAL DAY

Hello. I hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend. Please don't forget what this holiday is about. It isn't about a three day weekend, cookouts or the official start to the summer. Be thankful for your freedom and remember all those who have lost their lives to protect this great nation!!! 

I instantly had to have this pattern when it was released by Little Scraps of Heaven Design.

Look at this guy. He is so adorable. 

Here is a close up of the title. I actually used rub-ons for the first time. I was really happy with how they came out.

Here is the tombstone, helmet and dog tags.

Here is a close up of the photo mats.
Thank you so much for looking. I really enjoyed working on this layout. It gave me great pleasure to appreciate my freedom. Enjoy your weekend.

CONGRATULATIONS

Hello, It is a BEAUTIFUL Friday here in Massachusetts. My husband had his motorcycle road test today and passed with flying colors. I made this adorable card for him.

This pattern is also from Little Scraps of Heaven Design titled 'biker bear collection'. Thanks so much for looking. 

WEEDS FOR SALE (DIRT CHEAP)

Hello everyone. One thing that I love to do other than play with paper is gardening. My Dad was a landscaper and died when I was 23. So when I cut the grass and plant things it makes me feel closer to him. So when Little Scraps Of Heaven Design came up with this pattern, I HAD to get it.

I just loved doing this layout. 

Here is a close up of this cutie.

I love the trellis on the left hand side.

I love the shade of blue in these flowers. 

I love the centers of these flowers. 

This is a close up of the mat paper. It matches perfectly!!

Thanks so much for looking. Come back each day this week as I try to get caught up on so many projects that I have started. I think I need to spend less time in the garden and more time in the paper studio :)

BEE~UTIFUL

Happy Sunday everyone. Look at this adorable one page layout I just finished up.

These pictures do not do this project justice. It is so beautiful. The pattern is titled 'bee fairies' from Little Scraps of Heaven Design.

I love these fairies.

Here is a close up of the bee hive.

Here is my 'bee~utiful' title. Thanks so much for looking. I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.

GET WELL WOUNDA WOMAN

A few weeks ago,  I was asked to help cheer up a friend who had been injured in a roller derby match. Her name is Wounda Woman and skates for the Spartanburg Deadly Dolls. This is the card I made for her...

Isn't she great? I love the machine stitching around the background paper. Of course I love the roses too. As an added bonus, I included a special item...

I found this Wonder Woman Pez candy dispenser. haha, perfect huh?

Well, I just got a 'thank you' card from her. I am happy to say that she is growing stronger everyday. I also got some goodies..a Spartanburg Deadly Dolls bracelet and bumper sticker. :) 

Thank you so much Wounda. 

HOOKED ON YOU

Hello everyone. The weather is getting warmer. It is time for fishing. Here is a two page layout that I just finished up.

I love all the detail.

Here is a close up of page 1...

and here is a close up of page 2.

The pattern is titled 'hooked on you' from Little Scraps of Heaven Design. Thanks so much for looking. Come back tomorrow for another great projects in the works.

A MOTHER'S LOVE

Happy Monday. I just want to share an adorable one page layout with you.

The pattern is titled 'a mother's love' from Little Scraps of Heaven Design. I played around with the scallop page. I tried to have heart shaped cut outs in each 'bump' of the scallop, but it did not cut so well. I will continue to practice. I did machine stitch each of the mats as well as the scallop page. Although, I should have used a darker color thread. 

I just LOVE this Momma and two cubs.

This is a close up of the title.

Here is a close up of the flowers, as well as the stitching on the mats. Thanks so much for looking. I hope you all had a great Mother's Day.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Happy Mother's Day everyone. 

I have been giving my Mom the same Mother's Day card for the last 20 something years so I made this altered gift bag for her gift. It features the 'crowned Mom' pattern from Little Scraps of Heaven Design. I hope everyone has a great day.
