My Mind's Eye challenge


I created this layout for the My Mind’s Eye challenge.  I used the Breaking Free line by MME , which is an older line but it was perfect for this challenge!  I created the “fun in the sun” title on my Gypsy and then cut it out with the Cricut.  To add some depth to it I randomly added glitter.  Also with the cricut, I cut triangles using the Breaking Free paper; I added trim at the top of each triangle with Making Memories ribbon.  Unfortunately I wasn’t able to add pictures to this layout because my printer is out of ink. I just hate when that happens.

Becky Fleck's card challenge


For this card sketch I used Teresa Collin’s on the edge paper, sentiment, and brad. I created the background using a plain white piece of cardstock, sprayed it with glimmer mist (charcoal) and crumbled the paper while it was wet. For the stars I had had some two toned chipboard stars that I painted black. 
Here's the sketch:
















Here's my take:

Getting back into the swing of things


Well it’s been over a year since my last posting, and it's been eight and half months since Alyssa was born. Whose Alyssa you ask? She is my beautiful daughter!  Since her birth, it has been a little harder to scrapbook book, but I have managed to get a few pages completed.  Here are a few I have worked on recently.
