Sunshine & Happiness

Hello my scrappy friends!  I've been busy around the house recently painting and organizing my scrappy corner!  I've donated several supplies and thrown some away.  I have more space on my shelves which is great!


I made this LO today and yesterday...and by today I mean in the middle of the night!  I'm not sleeping much so rather then watch tv, I scrap.

 

This LO is out of my norm but I love it!  Lots of layers, lots of paints, lots of embellies...flowers, splatters, sequins.  I recently won a Pink Paislee kit with 12x12 papers, 6x8 papers, stickers, wood pieces, other embellishments.  Most of my LO is made from this kit.  I just love it!!

I'll be entering these challenges with my LO:

Festive Friday  #FF0061 -  I used flowers, orange, yellow, green, and pink from the list.



Last Memories #502 -  The challenge is to use at least 5 patterned papers.  I used 6 papers.

Teaching

Hello again my scrappy friends!

Onto another Sketch-N-Scrap 8th Birthday Celebration sketch.  This one was posted on FB on 5/2, challenge #1.

This was Christmas season 2013 or 14.  Our son was teaching our daughter the technique of using zip ties to hand our stocking.

 

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!! You have until the end of May to entering these fabulous sketch challenges!

And Learning

Hello my scrappy friends!  Happy Memorial Day!  I always feel strange saying "happy" for this holiday.  It's happy for us due to those who died.


This LO was taken from Sketch-N-Scrap 8th Birthday Celebration!  I am using challenge #10 from FB.  I turned the sketch to fit my landscape pictures.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!  On to create other LOs...this celebration ends next Sunday, 3/31.

What a Day

Hello my scrappy friends!  

I made a LO all in one day!  Usually it takes me a few days since I just get pulled away for whatever reason.  This one was pretty easy, no Cricut cuts which always saves time.  Some ink, sprays, cutting and distressing some papers and it was done!

I'll be entering my LO into these challenges!  Check them out since you still have a couple of weeks to enter!

Scrap Our Stash Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge.  I used the first column using Wood Veneer-Brad-Chipboard and diagonal from left to right using Wood Veneer-Enamel Dots-Twine.


Shopping Our Stash #420 - Oh the Places You'll Go.  This is a travel theme.  Well, this may be a stretch, but you can travel on a surf board!  It may not be a long distance, but according to my kids paddling in the lake is far enough!


Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!  Till my next LO, stay safe!

Sweet 16th Card

Hello my scrappy friends!

Thursday is my daughter's Sweet 16th birthday!!  I bought her some balloons today, will make her a chocolate cake with chocolate icing tomorrow and buy some taco bell for dinner...per her requests!  We'll do a house party call with grandparents, cousins, aunt and uncles while she blows out the candles and opens her gifts!  Little by little for the past two weeks we've received cards and  packages and one of her friends will drop gifts off tomorrow!  I hope to get a picture of them, 6 feet apart of course!

Here is my card for my daughter.  She loves flowers and cacti and has several in her room...coming up with the card was easy!

I used the sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap's 8th Birthday Bash, sketch #169.  
 



This card will also be entered into STAMPlorations never-ending challenge.  
I've used one of their stamp sets, Succulently, for the front sentiment and inside stamp.  The flowers on the card are cut from Accent Essentials Cricut Cartridge, the numbers from Base Camp....so I'll be entering the Bitten by the Bug 2 blog for Flowers!

Happy 6th Birthday

Hello my scrappy friends!

My daughter's 16th birthday is next week, so it's got me thinking about her younger years.  This LO is from her 6th birthday...such a different stage in life to say the least!!  Zhu-Zhu pets were all the rage back then and we had soooooo many, its was a bit ridiculous.  Both of my kids has their own...girl and boy little hamsters rolling around tracks for hours for years!  Money well spent!  These pictures were the start....

This LO was inspired by Scrap Our Stash "Feelings" challenge.  I chose Happy from the chart that was posted for us and used it as part of my title!




 Thanks once again for stopping by and commenting!

Hello Card

Hello my scrappy friends!!  I've been making cards recently for several family members and some friends.  This card is for one of my sisters, last week I posted a card for my other sister who is a nurse, https://jenscreativeside.blogspot.com/2020/04/bird-card-thank-you.html.  

This card has been received and she loved it!  it's perfect since she drinks tea often, loving trying new teas whenever she can. 

I used STAMPlorations stamps  for the tea cups, sketchy coffee cups, and sentiment frames and flowers.   They have a never-ending challenge...as long as you use any of their products, you can enter.  Every 50 submissions, a winner is chosen for a $10 gift certificate!

I used the sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap for this card, #168.  I loved the layers and the simple decorations.   And.....Sketch-N-Scrap is turning 8 years old this weekend!!  Of course they are hosting their annual birthday bash starting on Saturday, May 2nd.  Check out their website and FB page for more information!!

Thanks for taking a look and commenting!  Continue to stay safe and create!
