Here is my card!

I found the "for her" version of My Mind's Eye "Ooh La La" used tiny lime green polka dot paper from a paper pack (not sure of manufacturer), and Bazzill Cardstock, my fiskars border punch, Maya Road Chipboard button sprayed with Maya Mist. The stamp is from Unity Stamp Company-"Stichted Greetings".

Creative Scrappers Layout #107

This week at Creative Scrappers, the weekly layout is amazing! I love it! I am trying desperately to finish our wedding album. I probably have about 10 more pages to do. But until then, here is a recent wedding page! I used one of the pictures of me and my bridesmaids. I used the My Minds Eye, Ohh La La for him paper line including the die cut sheet. And one thing I can't forget! I used the Storybook Cricut Cartridge! Probably my favorite font cartridge!

Just a little side note about our wedding... We were married on January 3rd, 2009 and when you look at the picture and you see the girls are wearing knee length dresses, you are probably thinking I am crazy! But I just loved those dresses and I have to have them! The funny thing is that a warm front came into the Houston area the night before and the high on January 3, 2009 was 90*! No joke! So, it all turned out great that they wore the knee length dresses, and they were quite comfortable!

Here is my layout...


Just a few close ups.




Here is that actual photo from the wedding.

Pink Paislee Artisan Album using Bayberry Cottage Collection

A few weeks ago, I order the kit that Pink Paislee was selling that went along with a "House of 3" and Pink Paislee live web event/class featuring Heidi Swapp. This weekend while my husband was attending a track and field coaching clinic, I used the Artisan Album, 6x6 paper pack, and punch out die cuts it came with to complete the Aritisan Album. I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed watching the video and learning several new techniques and ideas. I also really enjoyed putting together this fun album. Here are a few pictures of the album.
Ohhh... and check out the website for the online event even if you didn't purchase the kit! There are also some other great webisodes to check out! I promise you won't be disappointed!

The cover is sprayed with "cranberry zing" glimmer mist from Tattered Angels and I plan to make or put a cute flower and some pearls on the cover.



Here is the first page and I would have to say that it would be one of my favorites!
