Sweet, Simple Beyond the Page

This is a simple little beyond the page project I created for Kaiser's Design Team.  The vintage feel of the Magnolia Grove collection just cries out to be distressed....so of course I had to do what it asked, LOL.

The sweet little flowers are made using Spellbinders Dies...they are so realistic.  

Prickley Pear Coming Your Way

Today I have a Prickley Pear creation to share with you.  I love using their delicate dies, they just add a great elegant touch.  Of course adding pearls never hurts either.

Today's your day ....so SHINE!!!

Believe with Magnolia Grove

Vintage, vintage, vintage and I love it  This card highlights the Magnolia Grove collection from KaiserCraft.  I also used some of the new collage basic stamps from Kaiser and I adore them...they just rock.  Cheery Lynn dies were used for the die cuts and they are simply stunning.  So intricate, yet they cut like butter.  Love them!!!

Bye, bye Fan

This is a fan I decorated using the Rock Pool collection from Kasier and I love the way it turned out but here's the funny story behind it.  Cole my youngest loved the fan when I finished and asked if he could have it.  Of course I said yes but to let me just get some pictures of it for the blog.  Once I was done with the pictures I gave it to him.  Not even five minutes passed and I walked by Cole's room.   He was smiling and so proud, so I stopped and asked what he was up to.  He came running over and showed me how he had made my fan prettier with blue marker all over the seashells, seahorse and fan...Of course I had to grit my teeth and agree that he had made it 100% better.  So enjoy the pictures as the fan looks like this no more, LOL.

Cheery and Bright

Happy Friday and Happy June!  Yeah for the weekend.  Today's card is such a happy card you just can't help but smile.  I used the Fine and Sunny collection from KaiserCraft.  So cheery and bright.

Castles in the Sand with Rock Pool

I sure do miss my youngest at this age.  I can't believe how fast he's growing up and I'm just treasuring each and everyday with my kids.  This was such a great day at the beach.  We didn't actually build any of the castles we just happened upon them on a walk but Cole took no ttime in making himself right at home. 

The paper collection is stunning for your beach pictures.  It's called Rock Pool from KaiserCraft and I love the color combo.  I also used Cheery Lynn dies on the layout.  

Happy Hummingbird

Happy Monday everyone.  Today I created a card using the Hummingbird Collage stamp from Prickley Pear.  I used my new distress markers to vary the colors on the stamp and I have to say 

they are wonderful. They stay wet for a long time so you have plenty of time to color in your whole image.  

The paper is of course from KaiserCraft...they all are so beautiful why would I know use them. 

I hope everyone has a good holiday today and I'll see you on Wednesday. 

Quickie card I wanted to share with you all before the weekend.  This is a card I did using some of the newest dies from Prickley Pear and their coordinating stamps.  The paper is from KaiserCraft.  It's such a girly card, don't you think?  Have a creative weekend.

Forever

Today's layout is one I created for KaiserCrafts Design Team using the Charlotte's Dream collection. I wish the picture showed the background better, but I used Tim Holtz tissue tape, gesso paint and stencils creating a really great texture.

Love making those little clusters that draw your eye in to look and look and see what all is going on.  Fun in scrapping.
