Simple Stories 24 Seven Mom Layout

Created by Anita Mulcahey

Some photos just seem to grab you and you just know that you need to do something with them.  This is a dear friend of mine with her mother at a recent girls weekend on Cape Cod which they do every year.  I have had so much fun creating with this Simple Stories 24 Seven line and this is my third project this month.  If you haven't purchased it yet, you need to hop on over to The Hens' Den and get yours before it is gone.

There are so many amazing elements in this set and the gorgeous colors and quality that you expect from Simple Stories.  This photo just makes me so happy as you can plainly see the love Anne has for her dear mother.

I had such fun scrapping this adorable picture of my daughter.  She was in a Pretty Little Princess Pageant, only once because she really wanted to and actually it was lovely.  She had these photos taken to submit for entry and made a kissy face with her beautiful eyes closed.  I entered this in the Paper Secrets Sketch challenge with a twist, which was to use lots of bling.

Happy Memorial Day everyone.  Can you believe that it is almost June and that we are on our way to summer.  So thankful to have a lovely day after all this rain.  Lisa gave me such fun papers to play with this month, Chap by American Crafts.  They are just perfect for Father's Day and also for masculine cards.  I love this stamp set from Unity Stamp Company called What Matters Most and the houses were perfect for this title.   Right at Home also has lots of these Teresa Collins Enamel Dots which are very trendy right now.  They are a lot of fun to play with.  I am loving my Silhouette for titles on my cards, there is so much that you can do with this wonderful die cut machine.
Speaking of my Silhouette I made this adorable box using the American Crafts Chap line and it will be perfect to put some treats in for my hubby.  I bought the file from the Silhouette store and the assembly was a snap.  

Enjoy the rest of this beautful day.

Hugs,

It's hard to believe how quickly my Guest DT spot at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown went by.  I have loved every second of it.  I so appreciate all the wonderful comments left for me as well.  This week's challenge is an embellishment one and we were to use twine on our card.  Here is my card for this challenge.  You can play along here.

This is a layout that is probably one of my favorite.  It includes flowers and leaves which are made from dies out of fabric and cork and felt.  I also die cut the scalloped circle on my electronic die cutting machine.  I have been having such fun linking up and shopping, no surprise there, at Paper Issues.  You should check out Cassie's site and store.

I fell in love with this sketch and knew just want I wanted to do with it.  I was at a crop this weekend and bought this paper pad from Echo Park called Bundle of Joy.  You can play along here: Paper Secrets Card
