TGF Scrapbook Challenge

This is what I was working on today among other things.  I have been trying to finish my Disney Layouts and now onto my Easter.  I didn't realized I was that behind on my scrapbooking, since I have gotten into cardmaking.  This is a 12 x 12 layout.  I have used some stickers and papers from 3Birds where you can buy at HSN.  This is dressy Edward that I colored with my copic sketch markers, still in practice mode :}:}

Disney Layouts

This is what I worked on Today.  Almost halfway done.  We have an annual pass that my mom got us in December but it was so packed then that I really consider this my DD 1st really visit, because she really got to enjoy it more.

This is a 2- page 12x12 layout.  The PP I used is from Disney Paper Pizzaz came with a lot of things that you can cut out and used.  I believe I have been using the same Pack for about 2 years now and I still have more.  The die-cut (heart Minnie, Flowers Mickey word and Mickey Mouse) is from Cricut Disney & Friends.

.
Isn't this Album to die for. I got it just for my DD fit for a Princess.  I have a regular Disney Album for us too.

This next one is a Gate Fold Card.

I used my cuttlebug on the front panel of the card and my Nestabilities Small Scallop and Small Circle to Emboss as well the medallion.  I then stamped my sentiment with PaperTrey Ink.  The punched border on the outside that holds the card together is a Martha Stewart Punch.

Here is the Inside..

15 Year Wedding Anniversary 2morrow

Well this is the card that  I worked on today. I know I said I have to work on my Disney and Easter Layouts but it's my wedding anniversary and also mother's day is coming up so I might have to work on those things first.  Busy Busy.

I can't even believe that we have been married for 15 years already.  Time just passes by so quickly I guess when you are married to your best friend.  I am lucky enough to be married to such a Super Husband who provides and takes care of us and devotes his time to us.  I am Super blessed and Super thankful.

To my Super Hubby Happy 15 years Wedding Anniversary.

Weekend Haul

Look at what I bought for myself.  I love these Paper Packs.  There is so much possibilities for these packs.  I can't wait to work on my projects.  I still need to scrapbook my Easter Pictures and Disneyland Visits so I might have to put cardmaking on hold for a couple of days.  I just need to get my pictures developed.


I also got me some Copic Sketch and more to come.  I love these markers.  I am practicing on a few of my Greeting Farm Stamp.  I will post the 2 that I was working on tomorrow.  For a beginner that can't hold her hands steady and a 1.5 yr. old that keeps grabbing my arm I thought it turned out pretty good :}

My Pink Stamper Color Challenge

Hello Everyone...

Here is my entry for the challenge.  My first challenge ever and my first attempt to make a mini album.
(Click Image to Enlarge)

The card base is from Papertrey Ink  - Clearly Creative Cardstock.  Cartridge used is Hello Kitty Greetings and fonts.  When you close the card u can see the scallop punch at the bottom.


Inside of the Card

Here is the Mini Album.  The chipboard purse I got from Michaels.  The stamped sentiment I used for this is My Pink Stamper Everyday Ocassion Stamps and cut it with Spellbinders -label 1.  The cricut cartridge I used was from Hello Kitty Greetings and Fonts.  I found it so much easier to TRACE the chipboard into the paper first then cut it.

This is the front side.....


This is the back...
This is a 5 page Mini Album.  I hope the Birthday Girl likes it.
