Sealed With a Kiss

Sealed With A Kiss....that is the name of the wonderful Scrap-Tastic April kit. Here is a picture of everything you get in it.



Isn't it it just full of yummy goodness?
I'd like to share with you the projects that I have made with "Sealed With a Kiss" Here they are:

U Make me Happy.
A layout of my 2 grandnephews Ryan and Evan. I used used myStamp Box stamps to make the banner. Love that stamp set!


Love
Look at the love in the eyes of Ryan as a baby looking at his mommy!




Blue Eyes
My nephew Brandon when he was just little. I used Sketch #111 at The Scrappiest to base this page on. I love Liz's sketches!






A simple card using the gorgeous BG papers.


I had fun altering this chip tile. It now hangs in my scrap room.


I hope you get a chance to play with "Sealed with a Kiss"! You will love it!

Scrapbook Star March Kit

I had so much fun creating with the March kit from Scrapbook Star. It had lots of fun items from Little Yellow Bicycle's Twig collection and of course many other goodies. To see the kit..and it's even on sale right now....have a look right here.

Here are my projects using the kit.
First off a cute little birthday card:


I added some Stickles and glitter to dress it up a little. Isn't that little bird so adorable?!?!




This layout is of my niece Teri-Lynn pushing her little Evan on the swing.


This photo brings back all the memories of when my daughter was in gymnastics. Here she is so proud to have won a medal!


The photo in this layout was taken this summer. My son Jonathan on the swing with Evan and Ryan. This layout is also entered in the Paper Variety Recipe Challenge.
I used 1 photo, 2 butterflies and 3 patterned papers.

I loved using the feathers in the kit and I made the flower out of the tissue from a sewing pattern. So happy with how it turned out. You will be seeing more of these. :)


Scrapbook Star is actually having a 20% off everything in the store sale right now. It's over at 8pm on April 1st so hurry on over there!

Mother's Day 1987

I found this photo of my Mom and my son Jonathan from Mother's Day 1987 and just had to scrap it.
The photo was taken at the Cozy Restaurant where we go every year on Mother's Day.



Cardstock:Bazzill
PP:Urban Lily
Punches:M.S.
Mist:PK Glitz
Flowers:Prima
Rhinestones:Kaiser
Copics

Love the little Bird




I had a chance to play with Sketch 107 at Card Patterns.
The card I made was created with the March kit from Scrapbook Star. If you haven't got yours yet....don't wait!


I just love that little bird. Funny thing is that you can see the name "Dominique" on it and that is the name of the owner of Scrapbook Star! How appropriate. :)

The sentiment was stamped with the "straightforward" set from myStampBOX.

We interrupt your regular programming....

...to tell you my exciting news!

See my new blinkie on the left hand side?
I am now on the Design Team for Scrapbook Star.
I'm so excited to be part of a Canadian kit club. It's based out of Quebec.

Dominique the owner was so sweet to actually call me and invite me to be part of the team.
Scrapbook Star is a wonderful online store and I will be getting a kit every other month to design with and on the alternate months I will be creating with items from the store.
Scrapbook Star also has a very friendly message board so I hope you will come and join us there just to chit chat or be inspired by everyone there.
My first kit has gone postal and I can hardly wait for it to arrive! I'm sure it will be gorgeous.
So stay tuned because Feb.15th the DT's creations will be showcased.
