Super Saturday Free Cards

Here are 2 cards for Super Saturday.

Freebies can still look cute, right? :)

I think it's about time for another post. Here is the party favor that I made for Hallie to give her friends that came to her painting birthday party.

They put all the art work they created in the clip boards and took them home.

I think after making 16 I have used enough modge podge to last a lifetime but it was well worth the time.

Happy Birthday to my sweet Hallie.

November Club

Here is the fall layout for club. I am in love with the teal and chocolate chip! ;)

October Club

Here is the layout for the October party. I love the trick or treat stamp set and the new paper (in the mini catalog). I LOVE Halloween!

Here is the treat bag topper we are making. If you want to make multiples I am charging 3 for $1.

Club Layout

I really had a lot of fun making these pages. I love the pictures so that helped! ;)

Here is the layout to fit the back to school theme most people want to scrapbook. I am adding polka dot texture to the pink on the left. It adds just a little pop. Then we'll put journaling lines on the right page.

Party Favors

We went to Hobby Lobby today and picked out flowers to use for hair clips. Hallie is very excited for her party tomorrow. In the morning I'm going to have Hallie sign all the thank you cards. I think they turned out pretty cute. They were VERY easy. I love flower clips. LOVE them. Hope her friends like them too!

Made with love...

Our church is making a quilt for the Medical City Children’s Hospital in Dallas. When children are terminally ill they go there for their last days and people donate quilts with inspirational sayings on them to help them and their families during that time. People that come to visit them can sign their blanket and when they pass on their family keeps the quilt. They needed someone to make a card for everyone to sign so Jen volunteered and asked for my help. Here is what we came up with. This is for a teenage girl. Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family. 

Hmmm. Do the colors look familiar?

Birthday Invitations!

I LOVE the new colors melon mambo and bermuda bay! 

Summer Layout with New Colors!

Here is the layout we'll be doing next weekend for club. I got the idea for the sun in the corner from my sweet friend and upline, Lindsey. Love it, Linz! ;) This is obviously the feminine version of the layout. The masculine version has brilliant blue instead of the melon mambo. 

You pull the tab on the right page and it opens like a card. It's fun to add another picture and some journaling to the pages.  And yes, I still need the journaling. 

August's Stamp Club Project!

Jen Beal is the hostess for club in August and wants to decorate these tins. So if you're in the club pick up a tin at hobby lobby (don't forget to print off a coupon online) and I will provide all the paper and ribbon. I have tons of different patterns of paper and colors of ribbon so you can personalize your tin. I use my box for all my cards.

These are so easy to make and pretty darn fast too!
