60 Years

I had fun using my P K Glitz glitter on it.

Nursery Door Hanger

One of my co-workers is going to be a Grandma soon and her daughter just found out that it will be a girl. They want to do the nursery using the colour purple. I thought I would make her a hanger for the nursery door.

I had fun using some P K Glitz products that just arrived at my door a few days ago.



I just love the Ritzy Ditzy Glitz. I sprayed it on the flowers and it gave them the colour that I needed for my project and also that pretty shimmer. Here is a before picture of the flowers.

Here is the after photo but it doesn't show how pretty they really are.

Twisted Sketch #046

The new sketch is up at Twisted Sketches. This week's twist is "Touch" - any how, any way!
Come check out the sketch here and play along. You will want to see what all the other DT members did with it too.
Here is my take:

This is a photo of my grandnephew Ryan playing in the leaves.
I wish you could "touch" this page since the leaves that I cut out are flocked and feel so fuzzy.

ScrapMuse April Kit Projects

Here are all my projects I made from using the April kit called Ride On. It was such a fun kit to use. You can find it here at ScrapMuse.

Okay now here is mine.

I used the chipboard in a package of Prima flowers. How is that for going green?


Next I covered the outside with patterned paper. Just trace the Prima chipboard.


Then I covered the inside with a different paper.


I cut some printer paper down to size and stapled them into my keeper to use as my pages.


I used a piece of WonderFilm and diecut a key shape. This worked perfectly! I then glittered it with Glitter Glitz.


The final step was to decorate the outside. I used a stamp set from our Preferred Partner My StampBox. Aren't those little symbols adorable?
Viola! My Password Keeper!
