A Small Album

Ok, here I am again. I hear that my public awaits for more blogs from me. lol (This is for you Kat.) So I have been working on a small album of my grand daughter. I have all the pages started with pics in them but, I am still embellishing them. So I only have the first three pages. I hope you like it. It was hard to choose the pics to fit it because I have so many of Ophelia when she was a baby. When I get around to doing my grandson's, I will have to get some pics from his mom. I hope she has plenty. I don't have as many baby pics of him. He didn't live with us when he was a baby, like Ophelia did. I have both Ophelia and River on Saturday nights and they go with us to church on Sunday morning. They are in a puppet skit this Sunday so I will try to get some good pics then. I love having my grandchildren over. They are the best age now when we can do things together, like playing games, watching movies, even scrapbooking. They are a joy in my life.

A Small Crop

Here are my grandchildren working on a page layout.

Ophelia picked a couple of pictures from her trip to the Boston Aquarium. She chose a picture of the penguins and a picture of her friend while they were on the charter bus. She really likes all the embellishing! I am going to work on getting her an album to put her pages into.

River chose a postcard he got from his nanny (grandmother, not me). I was surprised to see how intent he was when he was working on it. He said he was going to put it on his bedroom wall.

MW Layout, May Challenge

MemoryWorks May Challenge.
I was able to use 5 items on the list for challenge #3.
7 brads (5 required), the paper is MW Basic Grey - Scarlett's Letter (something new),
Ink - on the tags, brown ribbon, and star on the velum (bling).
I had fun creating this page. I love the colors and the way everything just seemed to go into place.

scrapping cards

The top was made at my friends card shop. The others were made at the crop in Waterville.

Hello. It has been a long time since I have been here. Well I have some new pictures to show you. I have been to a crop in Waterville, (thanks Kat). I worked on some cards using paper and stamps I purchased from Close To My Heart. The paper is called Silhouette. Love it! The little box they are in was a make-n-take that my sister did. Thanks again Kat! I wanted to learn to make that. It is a great way to make up a card set and give as a gift.

Today I went to my friend's to a card shop and we used the same paper. Love it! so you will see the little box we made there and the cards are in it. I have not finished them yet. That is why they are not in the pic. I will do that later.

Soon I will also be showing pictures of creations made by papers and supplies from my own business. I am now a MemoryWoks Consultant. Woohoooooooo! More stuff to create with! Well I need to go for now. I have to stop having fun and prepare dinner while my husband goes to pick up Nate in Fairfield.

Here they are, the cards I have been working on. If you look really close you will see the cards have been embossed. I used my new cuttlebug for that. The last card I colored with water color pencils and blended with my tombo blending pen. They all have some glitter on them. And the bunny is in 3D so he really looks like he is peeking out of the hole. I really had fun making these even though they were time consuming and needed time to dry (the glitter). I have not put sayings inside yet. Need to find some really nice sayings for them. Well gotta go for now.

Hello. It has been a long while since I have been here. Well I have been busy. Seems I am a taxi driver for my son. lol I don't mind really, but it does keep me busy. I take him to school and pick him up four days a week. He is attending the community college in Fairfield. And today he needs a ride to Bangor DOT. Hey maybe this is a sign of relief for me in the future lol. mmmmm maybe. Anyway, I have been working on some cards for spring and Easter. maybe I can sell some in the future. If not I can use them myself. I will have some pics as soon as I can. Well gotta go for now more driving to do soon. Bye.

Easter Card

Here is an Easter card I made today. I got the idea from my friend Belinda, the shape of the card anyway. I used white card stock to cut the shape. Then I random stamped with black ink. After I stamped the card then I colored each stamped picture with water color pencils and blended them with my tombo blending pen from CTMH. I also colored the egg with water color and blended it as well. I thought it was cute. and I will be making more later.
