A Note to You


this card I was wanting to do for awhile after I seen how to punch these like this. I used the 1 3/8 square punch from stampin up and the corner rounder from fiskars. all I used was scrap paper to make this with since we all have scraps. the sentiment is also from stampin up and the ink I used is coal from ancient page. the ribbon I forget where I bought it maybe from michaels I believe.

Paper Doll

Here is a paper doll that I made all by hand. It is for my mother in laws scrap page that she had done. I told her I would make this for her layout. Everything is traced by a template that I bought from Discount School Supplies. I also used a black gel pen to give some definition. I cut all this out by hand which takes longer but is so worth it for me.

Oopsey Daisy


I did this layout of my niece savannah. she loves doing this by going upside down. so it made a great layout. pattern paper I borrowed from my friend Lucie, I also used white ribbon, flowers that was given to me and orchid ink from stampin up which i used around the journaling box. te letters are from a template that I traced out and cut by hand. yeah I know i have the wizard and the cricut but when you are going scrapbooking somewhere else for me the templates are so much easier. I also used black gel pen around the letters.
