Scrapbook Friday

 

Sharing another one of my favorite pages featuring my grandson in the snow. I cut the center picture out with my nestie and used that same one to cut the corners of the other pictures to create a circlular frame. Easy and fun way to create a different look on your page.

MMSC47 with Raisin Boat Stamps

 

Here is my take on the Midnight Madness sketch this week using my two sets of stamps rented from Raisin Boat right now. I never would have thought of this sketch by myself so is so fun and easy to design a card starting with a great sketch from one of these challenges.

Missing Birthday Card

 

Sara's card didn't come with the rest for some reason and it was the first one I got! I never tried to pull that many pictures at once so maybe there is a max? But here it is!

Happy Birthday to Me!

 

Above and below are all the beautiful handmade birthday cards I have received so far from my friends in my stamping club. Thanks to Jane, Barb, Heidi, Peggy and Sara for the awesome cards. If I get anymore, I will share later in the week.

My gift to myself was to take the day off work, sleep in and take it easy today. Later my husband is taking me a local restaurant that discounts the birthday person's meal 1% for each year of his/her age. So for me today my meal is over 50% off:)

C4C Sketch Challenge

 

The sketch from Crazy 4 Challenges this week was CAS and easy to design from. I used my new Gray Hare set from Skipping Stones Design which at my age I find hysterical:) I made this an Easter card but will use for a very funny birthday card when I get a chance. Added some patterned paper and embossed circle, and I used another funny saying inside to complete the card.

Stamp Simply Easter Card

 

Stamp Simply's challenge this week was to do an Easter card. I used Raisin Boat's rented Easter set one more time before I returned it for another really cool set you will see later in the week. (Do a search on Raisin Boat if you want more details on renting sets from them at www.raisinboat.com).

I punched and embossed the circular frame, paper pieced the egg. added the egg eyelets and raised the frame and saying with mounting tape.

Scrapbook Friday

 

I have decided to share a scrapbook page or layout with you each Friday. If you are into scrapbooking you might get a sketch or idea from them, and if you are not, you will still see pix of the cutest grandson in my world:)

The pictures show the whole page as well as the most fun part of the page- using two pictures to create an 8 for the title of "Crazy Eights". These are pictures taken from my grandson's first card game with the family.

Did you know if you ever want to see the pictures of my cards or pages in more detail, you can just click on the pix and it will enlarge for you?
