Fishing...

 

I love when I can take challenges and use them to create scrapbook layouts.  I need to do that a lot more and do a few less cards...although, I use the cards too...so what do you do??  I loves these pictures of my Dad with Anthony.  He just loves his Grandpa and you can tell Grandpa enjoys having grandboys around!

The fish is from simply charmed, the river is from Plantin' schoolbook and the trees are from stretch your imagination.

Die Cuttin Divas is having a 2 cuts, 2 cartridges challenge

and 

Flaunt it Fridays is having a simply charmed fish challenge

Another project and a layout....

I saw this Rainbow Wreath and knew I needed one for my house! 

It went together so quick and easy and I LOVE it!!

I did this layout with the Simply Charmed strawberry  cut at 2" and 3" and just loved how it turned out.  Strawberries are one of my very favorite things so I just loved these pictures anyway...and to finally get them onto a scrapbook page really made me happy!  They were from 2008...

Celebrate the Occasion...challenge #4...

 

Hi everyone!  I hope you are Celebrating the Occasion with us this week!  The CTO challenge #4 is up and its a FUN one...St. Patrick's Day!  Come on over to the CTO blog and play with us!!

I used the Simply Charmed leprechaun and the 4-leaf clover border is from Everyday Paper Dolls.  I chalked the cheeks of the leprechaun and used brads for his accents.  The borders of the leafs are laced with glitter too!  I had the perfect pictures for this little page and thought it turned out super cute!  I hope you like my take on the CTO challenge!

Red, White and Black...

  I wanted to give my friends something for Valentines Day so that they know they are special to me.  Why limit it to just my kids friends?  These bags are filled with "grown-up" candy that they will hopefully enjoy!  I got to use a new cut from Simply Charmed and a new face from My Peachy Keen stamps!

 So many many fun challenges to take part in.  I am putting this in these challenges:

More than Favors: Valentines

and

Jitterbuggin: Black, White and Red

Scrappy Moms Stamp is having a challenge to use the Simply Charmed cartridge. This is one of my favorite cartridge so I just had to play along.  I've been wanting a journal/notebook so that I could keep all my random notes in the same spot, so decided why not make it today?

Another Birthday...

 Mypinkstamper is at it again.  

She had another challenge on her blog to make something YUMMY.  I am in great need of more birthday cards so I just decided to make a Yummy birthday card (or two).  I've been eying this ice cream cone from Simply Charmed and wanted to use my new peachkeen stamps. 

I think they turned out pretty cute!
