Quick Quotes~Cards using the Sheer Joy Word Strip!

Hi , Connie here with a set of cards using the Sheer Joy Word Strip by Quick Quotes.  I was able to make a three card set using scrap papers from the Joy Ride Collection.  I love using up little pieces of paper, it's like  free cards!


My idea was to make cards using a grid design.  My papers were small, so I pieced together the fronts of the cards.  The background paper is Joy Ride. It worked perfectly!!  I also used small pieces of Catalina Island.

Try It Tuesday ~ Create a Vignette!

Hi guys!
I ordered the May Magpie Kit from JBS Mercantile.  I loved it and wanted
 to show how easy it is to make a little vignette to display the vintage goodies.


I used a vintage pan ~

I added some "kraft grass" for lack of a better word and then started to
 arrange the contents of the box into the vintage (chicken feeder, angel food pan, ?) pan.
  The bird nest fit perfectly in the center.


The contents of the Magpie Kit made this easy ~ so many cool vintage pieces.

Check out the sweet Mother Heart Charm ~ love that!

I added the egg and the "6" ~ cause I love them both:)

So give it a Try~
Collect some awesome "things" and make a vignette.

Quick Quotes ~ A Club Q Kit scrapbook page!

Hi, Connie here with a scrapbook page using the Alton paper and the February Club Q Kit. I didn't come close to using all the kit in February, so I wanted to create more pages.  Nothing wasted !!!

The kit come with this adorable envelope style pocket and tags.  I put my photos on the tags and used the envelope to hold them.  You also get in the kit the flower die cuts, the hearts and the brads. Makes it easy to complete this page.  The background is stenciled using Quick Quotes PowderPuff Ink.

The envelope style pocket is great for adding memorabilia associated with the pictures you are using for your page.  A very cute and clever idea!
