water fight!!!!!

Another vacation page from when we met the kids at Branson, Mo. They were all dry when they started and were soaked when they got back to ground but tons of laughing went on. I love that!!!!! This layout is using some "old" Fancy Pants and Bazzill cardstock. Added some sticker letters and it's done. Another quick page. Have a crafty day!!!

love those Croc's!!!

I'm not the only one that loves Croc's!!! My grandson said,"Nini can I try your Croc's on and you take my picture?" He usually doesn't like me to take his picture- so I was happy!!!! I used scraps of Sassafras Lass pattern paper on this and just layed the scraps side by side to cover the Bazzill cardstock. Very simple page layout!! Have a great weekend evryone!!!

Some Scenic Route

This is a quick layout done using border punches. I love layering them using different coordinating papers and by doing that you add tons of color to your page. You can't tell by the picture but I added pop dots to the first shoe picture for dimension. Will be posting more scrapbooking stuff later-got to get it photographed!! Thanks for stopping by and have a "crafty" day!!!

Tag card!


This is starting to be my "signature" card. I love making these and being able to tie them to the gift instead of covering all your work up with an envelope makes me love them more!!! They are quick and you can decide if you want them to be dressed up or down.
The size is 4"x4" Kraft cardstock. I used Glimmer Mist. mask and cut the scalloped circle out with my Spellbinder dies. The bird is also a Spellbinder
die - just added a button for charm and some twine or hemp. Remember to leave a comment or better yet, sign up to be a blog follower and your name goes in twice for the stamp sets. I will post a winner Tuesday!! Thanks for stopping by!!!!

This was a really fun project!! I went through my pictures and pulled out the pictures that had tons of GREEN in them-Green just happens to be my favorite color. My eyes are green, I gravitate to green things, my walls in my house are painted green, I have green chairs - so why not a green scrapbook page!!! Try it with your favorite color - just a simple page that makes a statement about your favorite color!!! Have fun with it and let me know what your favorite color is and I will have a drawing for some cute little stamp sets. If you become a blog follower your name goes in twice. Help a girl out- my goal is 100 blog followers!!!! I will announce the winner next Tuesday!!!!
