Checkbook gifts


My sister-in-law introduced me to this method.  You glue the edge of the new dollar bills together with Padding Compound which is a book binding glue.  The glue is rubbery and the bills come off like they are a pad of paper.  A fun way to give money for any holiday.

#36 LO for the year!

Never though I would get this many LOs finished but I am doing pretty well so far.  Just need to keep of the steam.  Here is a LO I am doing for a challenge.  This is the sketch I needed to use.
This is my take on it.  How did I do?


I put foam dots and strips under the sun and clothes to raise them up.  The paper is DCWV All About Girls and Mango Frost.  The Images are all cut on the Cricut from Kate's ABC's, Everyday Paper Dolls, and Paper Doll Dress-UP.  The Fonts I used were Street Sign, Billionaire, and A Child's Year.  The face on the sun I drew and colored in with some chalk, a black marker, and a Signo white pen.  If you could tell me what you like and don't like about this LO so I can fix it before sending it into the DCWV challenge.  Thank you!

Little trash bag!


Here is the trash bag I made to match.

Imagine and Expression Covers




I made each reversible just incase I wanted a change.  I can mix and match as I like. Sorry I am behind on my pages but I have wanted to do this for awhile.

Valentine's Day card!


Made with Doodlebug paper and my Cricut &  Elegant Edges.  I want everyone know that I got the design element for this card form . I love her work.  this is the card of hers that I used!

Hit the Happy Mail jackpot today!!!!

This is what was in my mail box today.  Paper and stickers from Doodlebug Design inc., stamps from punkin patch and my order from Custom Crops (boy did they ship fast!).  The Doodlebug papers are so pretty and I love the stickers.  I guess I will have to make Valentine's now.  The punkin patch stamps are so intricate and the set includes cute to beautiful.

#26 LO for the year!



This is the sketch I used.  The base paper is DCWV the all About Girls stack, the butterflies were from K& Company Butterfly Color. The buttons were a mix of Webster's pages, baby pink Button Ups, and La di dah.  The brads were K & Company.  Simple but I think it came out ok.

#25 LO for the year!


I love the soft colors on this one letting the pictures stand out.  Both pictures are of my youngest taken about 10 year apart.  Thought she might get a kick out of seeing how she had grown.

#24 LO for the year!


Paper was so cute didn't know what to do with it so here it is.  Thinking I need to add a couple ducks in the pond.  Not very motivated right now but, will keep going as not to fall far far behind. Paper is DCWV the PLaytime stack.

#22 and #23 LOs for the year!


Well, I am keeping up sort of.  Here are my next two. I have now finished all the pictures I took at Christmas and some back years one, now I have to start digging and fill in the blanks in my scrapbooks.  I am doing 6 different books at this time and have to go back and do my two oldest books from about 1984 to their graduations.  Wish me luck.  I will try to keep up on pictures I take so I don't get years behind in some books.  Thank you for all your kind comments and cheering!  Love to hear from you!
