Manhattan Flower

This simple card uses cardstock, the Manhattan Flower embossing folder (for the Big Shot) and Whisper White Craft ink. The result is GORGEOUS yet simple cards. I have left mine blank for now and stamp on the sentiment when needed (birthday, thank you, thinking of you, etc)

Pink one

yellow, gorgeous!

A New Mini - Video

A mini album I created. As always, I am completely in love with it. It holds 18 pictures and folds open "frontwards and backwards"

I actually would like to go back prior to 2009 and make albums of our pictures from then - more inspiration to come!

Mini Album

You know me and my obsession with mini-albums, right?! It all started with the double slider album, and then I created all kinds of little ones...then a flip version...and now I've created another. J'adore! They look so cute on the bookshelf and are nice and easy to pull out and show people.

The front

Pull on ribbon tabs and bring up a double sided (removable) insert with more pics!


Not showing all the sides of the inserts, but you get the picture:-)


The back
Everytime I make one of these I say, CUTEST EVER! And then I love the next one I make even more! I have created another mini album - Can't wait to show you how it works! It will be all decorated soon!

Flip Album

A little mini scrapbook, made in Feb 2012.

When you flip up these pictures, there is another set of pics under there, and they get flipped down, revealing...

The inside of the album, with everything flipped out

The back
The quotes I used in the album are from this post.

Peace on Earth

In an 8x10 frame. A little Christmas art that is making me really happy to look at! I love it! I used a tree cut out from Paper Crafters Library's special Christmas projects - Not on their regular site, I don't think, but a special email sent out to people who requested it, it's a free thing they do every year with about 12 weeks worth of Christmas fun!

Need: Tree (I used Old Olive)
Scrap papers in just about any colours you want!
1" punch
3/4" punch
1/2" punch
buttons and embellishments
glue dots
stampin' dimensionals

To show some dimension. Basically, you punch out circles and start layering them up! No rhyme or reason, just keep doing it until you like the look!
For the sentiment, I considered stamping something, but I had some chipboard Christmas phrases (peace, joy, love, believe), so I chose one and heat embossed with Cherry Cobbler powder.
I LOVE IT! So fun, cute, and happy!
