World Card Making Day

Happy World Card Making Day everyone:

Here are some cards that I made recently and really like how they came out. Two of my cards are featured over on the Creative Scrappers Blog for today.  Check it out.  Thanks Kristine for the shout out.

Hugs,

Cuddles

Created this layout of Sean and Vanessa's visit to meet her newest cousin, Corbin.  They are going to make great parents some day and seeing Sean hold this baby so lovingly makes me melt and look forward to the day when they have their own baby.  I used the Doodlebug Essentials Hip Hip Hooray kit for this layout.  I was challenged to use products using the word labor.

l:  letters, A:  arrows, B:  border, O:  orange, R:  robot

You can play along at the Paper Secrets challenge here until the end of the month.

Love Always The Twinery and Ruby Rock-It Blog Hop

We are so excited  here at The Twinery to be joining up with Ruby Rock-It for a wonderful 3-day blog hop! Each day, designers from both design teams will inspire you with projects created using our fabulous baker’s twine and a variety of products from Ruby Rock-It.

If you love retro and vintage styling you’ll love Ruby Rock-It. Old fashioned imagery blended with up-to-the-minute colour palettes capture the essence of what this brand is all about. Inspired by fashion, all lines are created with the traditional scrapbooking vibe in mind. We live by the motto Scrapping is love made visible – scrap a little love today with Ruby Rock-It.

You should have come to my blog via Tobi Crawford - http://tobicrawford.blogspot.ca/.  If you didn't you can start at the beginning of the hop at The Twinery - http://thetwinery.com/blog.  

I was inspired by Ruby Rock-It's Oriental Chic line to create this Asian inspired fan for my sweetie. I cut the fan twice on my Silhouette and then popped up the butterfly and the top layer.  I used some Solid Midnight Blue and Blue Shimmer twine from The Twinery to weave through the bottom of the fan and tie a fun double bow.

Happy Fall Y'All

I had so much fun creating this Fall banner to decorate my home for this colorful season.  I used glue to adhere the twine across my acorns and then trimmed them up with my good sewing scissors.  I used Capuccino and Flax twine for this fun project.  The colors are perfect for fall.  Be sure to check out The Twinery store to buy your twine for all your decorating and crafting needs.

Harvest Time

Here is a project that I had such fun creating.  I love these new milk bottles that are out and picked up a few at Michael's.  I used some vintage (last season, lol) Doodlebug for the leaves and used Wilton Cookie Pop sticks and wrapped them with some Doodlebug Washi.  This is for several challenges, including:
