My Boy!

I have to share with you this layout I did with my son's 1 year photos.  My photographer is amazing and affordable!  The pictures turned out beautiful (for a boy).  Isn't he just sooo.. adorable!!

Layout came from a sketch by Liz Qualman. 

I used the gypsy wanderings cart for the stars and the title.

A Martha Stewart punch

Cardstock is Bazzill and patterned paper is SEI.   

Ink is stampin up and colorbox

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you like it.

BIRTHDAY CALENDERS!!

I have missed blogging this last couple of months, all of the fun blog hops, challenges and the great inspiration I get from you fellow bloggers, but I wanted to share with you what has been taking up all of my time.

I have been getting ready for a booth at our local Peach Days celebration. I did really well with my booth, I sold quite a bit of my creations and have orders for many more. 
Here is my main source of income.  They are all different in their own way, and I can make them in many different colors to match your home decor.  They are my take on a Birthday Calender. 

I hope you enjoy them and if you have any questions leave a comment or email me, at tjscrappin@yahoo.com.  (click on a picture to few larger)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Teen Boy Birthday Card

Hello my fellow crafters, I am so sorry it has been so long since I have been blogging.  I have had a busy, crazy summer and we have had problems with our internet.  I am happy to say that we finally switched providers and our internet is now usable.  I hope to be able to share some projects with you but I will be super busy as I am preparing for an upcoming booth to share and sell some of my creations.   Thank you all for your patience. 

I am going to share with you today a Birthday card I made for my nephew who had his birthday earlier this month.  He turned sixteen!  I have a hard time with boy/man cards but here is what I did using his favorite colors of course!

Recipe:

cardstock I had

Stampin Up stamps and ink

cuttlebug folder: traffic jam

I heat embossed the stamp

I also roughed up the edges of the title so that it wasn't so plain.

Thanks for looking, and it is good to be back!

Camping Card

I loved the idea Robyn (my pink stamper) had of giving her daughter a card with a gift basket for girls camp.  I took that idea and made one for my daughter.  It is her first year of camp and she is so excited and I'm so jealous!  Girls Camp is a blast!  The card I made totally fits her,(I think) and I showcased her favorite color with it ORANGE! 
I am also using this card for the Pinkalicious Blog Hop that was last Friday, over at My Pink Stamper.  Make something that you think of for Summer.  Well, we go on a big campout with family every year and that combined with my daughters girls camp this is what I came up with.  Here it is!

I actually did not use my cricut at all on this card.  The paper is all cardstock that I had in my scraps.  I used the Happy Camper stamp set from Stampin' Up and also the ink is Stampin' Up.  I used Glossy Accents on the cirlce boot to make it stand out more.  I also popped up the cirlce with pop dots.  The eyelets were some I already had, I believe they were from Provo Craft. 

Hope you like it, and I wish you all a great summer!

See you next time.

Guest Designer!!

I am so excited for today, I am a guest designer over at Inking it up Crazy with Kassidy!  She is celebrating her birthday this month-HAPPY BIRTHDAY KASSIDY!  All month long she is having different guest designers help her show off some of her favorite things, and having some great giveaways! 

My assignment was to make something using SEI products.  I really like their products, especially their paper.  So with that here is what I created.

I got a little inspiration from Liz Qualman's sketches for this layout.

Recipe:

• SEI and Bazzill cardstock
• George and Basic Shapes for the small circle
• American Crafts flowers
• the "cute" is a chipboard piece I found in my stash
• silver brads for the flower centers

I hope you all like it, I thought it turned out really cute.  To see more projects I have made using SEI just look at some of my most recent posts.  I have been playing with SEI for a while making different things, and this is just what I picked out for this special occasion.

Thanks for stopping by!  Comments are welcome!

Happy Father's Day!

To all the Dad's out there Happy Dad's Day!  I made a card for my husband and had my children write their messages in it along with mine.  We fixed Dad breakfast, and took it to him in bed.  I think he really appreciated it, even though we woke him up. 
I am also entering this card into the MPS Color Challenge. Make something using Orange, Turquoise and Green.
