You & Me and Me & You...

Back to scrapbooking... Here's a quick layout of me and Jess on New Year's Eve 2009. I decided not to over- think it and just go very playful.

My Little Entrepeneur

did i spell that right? Anyway.... On Saturday Nicole and I were crafting after a long day of tax prep and she said to me " You know Mom, I want to make some bookmarks and sell them at school. We are having a book fair next week and the kids will need bookmarks for their new books." I thought this was a great idea, so she and I made some of these bookmarks for her to sell. The price, well a very reasonable $.50 each! Look out Donald, here comes the young money maker!!!

What I'm most proud of is the fact that she was creative and business minded with this idea. I know she will do well in life because she has a very keen sense about her - must have gotten from her mom :-)

You Make Me Smile

Hello everyone, here is a card made with my new favorite stamp from Hero Arts... It is the cloud background stamp and it's pretty awesome! I highly suggest you go out and buy it :-)

The sentiment is from PTI, the felt flower is from Stampin Up. I hand sticked the stem using some green floss and cut leaves and grass from some of my paper scraps. What a great card for just about anything.

I love this baby button set by PTI. Since I had this set out for a previous post, I thought I would make another couple of cards.

Here's a closer look..

All Materials except the white cardbase (Neenah) is from PTI....

Oh Baby....

In addition to the album I made recently for my co-worker, I made a card that our entire group could sign, thus I made a 5.5 x 5.5 card. I thought I should also dress up the envelope- so here it is..

The elephant template was from Papertrey ink, along with the sentiment, and patterned paper... so cute!

Baby Album Part II

These are the last 13 pages of the album.... She is a new scrapbooker, so I tried to make this as easy as possible for her to just drop in 4x6 pictures of the baby.

I love how quickly this came together after thinking about the layouts. I really repeated three of the layouts throughout the book - can you tell?

Baby Album Part I

This is the first part of the baby album I created for a co-worker. She is having a boy, so the album is themed accordingly.
