Some New Cards

I didn't really have anything in mind when I decided to create these two cards.  I was basically playing around because I was in a crabby mood.  Scrapbooking is like therapy for me, and so by the time I finished these two cards I was feeling better!  If you are interested in them, they are listed in my Etsy store!

Amazing Grace Framed Creation

A while back I obtained a couple of old hymnals. My mom loves old hymns, and so I immediately knew what I wanted to do. I wanted to frame the hymn "Amazing Grace" for her. I had hoped to get it done for Christmas but it just didn't happen since I was busy working on her Granny Sign.
Anyway, I gathered some scrapbook paper, flowers, ribbon, and ink, and got to work! I distressed the edges of the hymn with my distresser and some ink. I framed it in a silver frame so it would match the other items in her home. I hope she likes it!

Another Christmas Layout!

This isn't the greatest picture of my LO, but it will have to do!  I used the following sketch by Got Sketch? to inspire my layout!

First Post of 2012 - Breakfast with Santa

Reba's kindergarten class had breakfast with Santa this year.  I decided to go ahead and scrap these pictures because I love them, especially the one on the right where you can't really see her face but she is obviously talking to Santa. 

I signed up for a Christmas swap where we each sent each other a gift. This turned out to be a really good thing because I didn't get a single scrapbook related item for Christmas. I think this was a first! 

When I got the Wonder and Wishes by Little Yellow Bicycle papers and embellishments from my friend. These are so cool and I couldn't wait to use them!

Using My Scrapping Skills to Make Lunch Box Love Notes!

If you follow my other blog you may know that I make fun lunches for my daughter.  Recently I did a Make Your Own Pick Challenge over at Bento Blog Network.  It inspired me to make some lunch box love notes for my daughter. She liked that I wrote "Mommy Loves You" on the one that I made before, especially since it was something that she could read.

Since I was already making them, I added two sets to my etsy shop!

My Muffin Tin Advent Calendar

I have been wanting to make one of these ever since I saw them being made last year.  I didn't have enough time last year, but this year I pulled it off. I may only have a couple more days before it is time to use it, but it only took one night. 

Modge Podge is So Fun!

Check out this fun, little sign that I made and listed in my Etsy shop. It feels so good to be crafty again!
