Happy Sunday!

I am just back from vacation. I spent a great week with my Family on the beach at Gulf Shores.  I found a great scrapbook store in Foley GiGi's Scrapbook.  This store was awesome.   I did have time to make one layout and started on a second while we were away.  I wanted to post this one of my grandson Bryson.  He is just getting in his teeth and his mom got a great picture showing his first 2 teeth.   I used the Baby Steps cartridge for the Baby and Title.  

After my visit to the scrapbook store I had so many ideas - They had lots of great layouts in their store and they had used lots of paper layers and I tried to do that.   I also used dimensionals to pop out some of the cuts.  I used this on the baby diaper, toothbrush and title.   I also inked the edges on all the cuts.
I used my new stamp pad from Stampin Up Chocolate Chip.  They have the best ink.
I started on another one of Bryson using the Sesame Street cartridge I will try to get this finished and posted this week.   I am going to try to start posting at least a couple of times a week.
I placed a large order with Stampin Up on Friday and will have some great things to make Fall and Halloween projects with.    I hope to do a workshop to show all this great product.  I will keep you posted.

Have a great day.
Happy Crafting.

Happy Fourth of July!!

I just wanted to post a picture of the fireworks from this past Saturday night (Our 4th fireworks were on Saturday this year)  This was my grandsons 1st time to the fireworks.  I think he had a good time it was just so hot Still 100 at 11:30pm  I also wanted to post some of the projects I had made using my new Stampin Up punches.  These 2 sets I got are great their are so many things you can make for your scrapbook pages or cards.
Before the fireworks. 

Bryson watching the fireworks.  He was a good boy!

My sweet family!!!

Sorry about the picture. This is a banner I made using the  #122361Petite Pennants Builder

and this is using the #118074 Owl Punch

I just used some old 4th of July paper I had and positioned the punch over the words I wanted to show. I thought this turned out really good.



These 2 punches are very versatile and can be used for every occasion, banners are just a easy way to add a title to your scrapbook pages.  I will post my layout when I get this finished.

Also I had been watching you tube videos this week on how to make pinwheels and wanted to try. This turned out pretty good

I hope you all have a happy & safe 4th of July.

Happy Crafting!
