Sweet layout

After all my card-post I thought it was time I shared a layout on my blog.

These gorgeous Prima papers are ohh so stunning and I just love all those pinks and black in this collection.

Many of the papers in this collection are just too pretty to cut a part so I wanted to make sure that the gorgeous flower cluster at the top would not get covered up.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Oh Baby

The Heaven Sent collection by Prima is so adorable and these papers make card-making oh so easy.

This bunny is so stinking cute and I just had to use her on a card.
To make her even cuter I added a bit of clear Wink of Stella to her outfit and camera.

Those tiny pearls sure add lots dimension to the whole design.

Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

Secret garden card

I have a large stash of my  beloved Webster's Pages papers that I love to look at and admire from time to time.

I know it is a bit crazy to have a large stash of pretty papers (unless you are a paper crafter you do understand this need) and not use them, but I am really trying to lessen my stash  bit by bit.

So this card was born - using only WB patterned papers, cardstock and embellishments.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Cuteness

I am just loving all things scrapbooking these days and it is even more fun when I use the mixed media tips to create my layouts.

My younger daughter can be a burst of cuteness and sunshine at times. After her bath one day she was just bursting with cuteness so I just had to snap a pic or two.

So I decided to go for pinks, yellows and soft blues as my color scheme and of course I had to add lots of flowers too!

I created the background using white gesso, mists and Neocolor pastels. I just love how soft and dreamy the background looks and the Neocolor pastels are so much fun to work with.

Plus I added "water drops" using my Ranger Glossy accent.

I just got this adorable digi stamp called Puppy Love from Tiddly Inks and I just had to sit down and use these lil dudes on a card.
