SPRING BASKET

Butterflies, pleated paper, paper bow, leaves, origami flowers, this little

basket has it all.

A few months ago as I was surfing through a few blogs, I saw a little Christmas basket something like this one. Mine is different and has quite a few different elements to it. I love the origami flowers and they are so easy to make. On a previous entry, I gave the directions on how to make these flowers. Check it out. In the basket is shredded paper, stick pins, and leaves that are highlighted with glitter from PK Glitz. I absolutely love their product and it is so easy and fun to use. The little curly cues are made from the same paper, just wet it, and pencil wrap it. This sweet little display is so easy to make and so much fun at the same time.
You all know that my fav adhesive is from Helmar.  Gosh that is the greatest "stuff"!  It is so easy to use.  On this project I used the adhesive runner, zapdots, spray adhesive and of course my all time fav, liquid scrap dots.  

Give it a try and happy scrappin'.

UPSTATE NEW YORK

The above layout makes me sooo homesick for upstate New York. One of the most beautiful parts of the country. Beautiful rolling green hills, fragrant trees, tumbling brooks and many farms. As you can see by the photo you feel like you want to climb into the picture and just lay in the green grass and smell the air.

I used Graphics 45 papers, Prima flowers and Prima flourishes. I will be going back this coming summer. I must say, I am ready to go.

Thank you for checking in and try something new today.

Happy Scrappin'.

WOW! Going through some old items in a drawer I came across my engagement picture. Can we say 20 plus years ago! Why, why can't we just pick a point in time and always look like that! I surely enjoyed being young and now I just act young.

Thanks and have a great day and try something new today.

Have you ever taken a picture that years afterwards you are sooooo glad you did. Well, that is how my youngest daughter feels about the above photos. She took these pictures when, at that time, her youngest child had the chicken pox. It is kind of hard to see but he is so covered with the pox. They are everywhere, even in his ears and nose. It was rough for a while since he did not talk yet and he wasn't quite a year old yet. Jake just took it in stride and now you would never know he had them, no scars. Enjoy the layout and remember to try something new today.

CHRISTMAS TIME

This is one of my overall favs! As you can tell I just love Graphics 45 papers. My version of Christmas is above. The old Santa looks so great highlighted with old vintage lace. The papers are 4 layers and the stamp paper was used in one corner. At the top of the right hand corner is an old clock face with holly and berries highlighting it. In the left corner is more lace and an old handheld trumpet with holly on it also.

I just loved making this layout. The Graphics 45 papers are so easy to use w/o using photos. All of your inspiration can come from the prints itself.

Enjoy looking at the photos and together in 2010 we can discover together new layouts and other projects.

Thanks for checking in and happy scrappin!
