Mojo Monday 216

Mojo Monday had a cute sketch. I made two cards really quick. Seriously, I just thr ewthese together. Likewise, this post was just thrown together...LOL!  I think I might make a few more and put more thought into them!  I have all kinds of ideas. enjoy!

Paper Princess Weekly Challenge

The Paper Princess Blog Sisters have started some new challenges to keep ourselves on our toes...LOL. This week challenge was as follows:

Since Thanksgiving and the holidays are upon us I want you to sit quietly and think of someone that you are truly thankful for and make them something! It can be anything you would like! (Ideas: card, a box full of goodies, a book mark, a tag, a mini album, or even a scrapbook page about/for them.) Your choice! Only requirement is that you use the color orange somewhere on your creation!

I decided to make a bunch of blank cards for my BFF of almost 20 years. She doesn't stamp or make cards but she always remembers to send a card for birthday's, anniversary's etc.

Here are two of the cards I have made so far:

I cased the card design from one that Melina made ... tee hee hee. Her card is so much cuter.

Mexico?

This is just a simple, cute and fun layout of pictures from Disney's San Angel Inn at Epcot. We were just waiting for our reservation and hanging out inside the restaurant. I like to pick up colors from the photos in my layouts. The title came from a page candy swap and I used clip art for the Three Amigos.

Pillow Cases

I started sewing again! It with not being able to find a suitable Halloween costume for my daughter and then a children's gift swap. Someone had made my daughter a pillowcase once. I thought that would be a perfect gift for someone! Plus, I needed to get checked out on my sewing skills after not having sewed for a few years to prepare for that costume. I ended up making three pillowcases. The two pictured I made for my kids.

Just Beachy

Here is another layout I made for one of my favorite swaps on SCS. I think the bright colors help make the pictures pop with all that white sand. It was a simple lo but I think it came out nice.

Bridal Shower

I made this layout for the scrapbook page swap on SCS. I LOVE this swap. I love making layouts for other people. Plus I get a completed layout back. It a win-win. I really like how this layout came together.

Something Old is New Again

I have several scrap book layouts that just never made it into albums. They've been sitting in those plastic acid-free folios waiting and waiting and waiting. Well, they were originally 8.5x11 layouts and no one really does those anymore! All my new albums are 12x12 so I used some creativity and made them into 12x12 layouts. I kept the original layout and added some 12x12 and a few other embellies etc, rounded some corners and voila, now they are finally in albums! I don't think you can tell they were originally 8.5x11, either. Can you?

Happy July 4th!

Happy Fourth of July!!!

Here is an easy layout I made. The Mickey rosette was made by a friend and the Mickey icon was received in a card/page candy swap. I am a little behind on my Disney pages but I am getting there slooowly.

Floral Flourish

Sorry I've been MIA. I had a family emergency but I'm baaaaaaack!! Here is a little something I made for a swap on SCS. This is actually a wide border for a 12x12 scrap book page. This border measure 4"x12". I love making these wider borders. There is so much you can do with the wider size. Enjoy!
