A Few of My favorites

You all know that I loveee to scrapbook, well I do make a page for just about any occasion, and I tell my friends I make them, show them to my kids and hubby and they all go ohh and ahhh and then it goes in a album never to be seen again. So for now on you will all get to see my pages and my cards from this wonderful blog I created, so I thought I would just post a few of my favorites. The first one is the boys baseball team the Muckdogs, I hand sewn the pages with embroidery floss and just love how it really brought out the colors and the theme, the next one is of Christoper getting his face painted in Disney step by step, once again I hand sewn the borders, put some brads and eyelets on the page and stayed with the green theme with the letters, I love how blue Christopher's eyes look in this picture. And the last one is of Nick's VPK graduation, this one I used a white gel pen and dotted around the whole outline to really make it stand out, added some ribbon and stars and stamped his name on the bottom, I also used a stencil to stencil in the title. Hope you enjoy and check back soon for more updates...

Nicky's Birthday Cards

O.k., so many of you know that I love to hand make things and so I gave it a whirl on Nick's invites and thank you cards. I think they came out cute, I really like the cupcake invite, but not to pleased with the thank you card, I really don't like the color combination, but it's all trial and error for me, I am sure I will look at these next year and go ewwww... Anyway, leave me a comment on what you think, I always love to here from someone else's view. Oh, I guess I should let you in on what I used to make them, on the cupcake card, the cupcake is a cricut cut and then I stickled the sprinkles and cherry, the "you're invited" was a $1.00 stamp, and the embrodiery floss through eyelets on the tag which was handmade by me, all the cardstock came from Michaels. The thank you is of course a pic of Nick and the ribbon from Michael's .50 cents, the stamp once again $1.00 from Michael's and then I just lifted the "thank you" with a pop up from Stampin up. Oh, Oh, there are 2 pics of Nick, sorry still trying to learn this thing, it won't let me delete the 2nd pic, so if anyone knows how to do this please clue me in..
