Easter and a Sketch Challenge

Hello and happy Friday! I have a scrap page layout to share. The sketch challenge over at My Creative Sketches inspired me. As soon as I saw the sketch, I knew what I wanted to scrap. The paper I used is old and I am almost out of it. I think I have scrapped several Easter layouts with this paper, LOL. I am going to be sad when it is all gone.

Hello and happy Wednesday!  It's What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesay. If you don't know what that is, take a visit to the Stamping Ground and take a look.  I have a big mess on my desk today but all is good because I worked on and finished a scrapbook page. Yippee! I just need to clean up the aftermath of that creativity, LOL. Sadly, the bookmark I started last week is still sitting there waiting to get worked on. I just didn't feel like working on it. I hope to feel inspired to work on it after  I clean up my mess.

Hello and happy Monday! I hope today finds you healthy. I have been sick with the flu despite getting a flu shot last October. So I haven't been up to much crafting and my desk looks exactly as it did last Wednesday. So I am posting a scrap book page I made not too long ago but never got around to posting. Better late than never, right? Hopefully you can find something to inspire you to be creative today.

WOYWW #396

Hello and happy Wednesday! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a happy New Year to everyone. Now that the holidays are over I am trying to get moving on some crafting projects. One is a bookmark I promised by daughter a while ago with this cute Uptown Girls stamp. So that is all that is on my work desk this week! I was having some issues and some thing that shouldn't have taken very long to do was taking forever. I just wanted to cut a few tags out with the Cricut and they weren't coming out to the size that I wanted. It turns out the settings were set to metric so everything I cut was coming out smaller than I expected! Oops.

So that is what is currently sitting on my work desk this Wednesday. What is sitting on your work desk? Head on over to the Stamping Ground and show us.

Merry & Bright

Hello and happy Thursday! I cannot believe there are only three more sleeps until Christmas. I managed to squeeze a little bit of time in to make a few Christmas cards. I am sending mostly to relatives this year. It seems like most people aren't sending Christmas cards like they used too.

Here is the card I made. I just kept it simple and made several of the same card and something easy to mail. In other words a nice simple A2 sized card without a lout of layers that didn't need any special handling or extra postage.

I cut out the little holly sprig on the Cricut Air and it's from the Joys of the Season cartridge.  I am not sure who makes the stamp. It is most likely one of the dollar stamps from the craft store.

Peek-A-Boo Gift Card Holder

 Hello! I cannot believe Christmas is 8 days away. I am just about done with all the shopping and wrapping. Just a few little things left to do. Like usual, I have some gift cards to give out and wanted to make something cute to put it in. I cut a tree out on the cover and put another tree on the inside flap that shows through. That way there is still something cute to see when you open the first flap. The tree has a matching stamp that I embossed with some gold powder.

Hello! It's me, I am baaaack......

I have been missing for awhile. It has been a hectic year and I just haven't had the time to get into my craft room and do any crafting whatsoever. I am trying to change that and see if I can work at least one day a week to do some kind of paper crafting.

As you can see by the mess on my desk, I have done a little scrapbooking. The last few months I have done two pages for the scrap lift challenge on SCS. It helps to have something to motivate me!

That page on my desk is for virtual scrapbook night on SCS. I have some Christmas cards in the works as well. Since it is Christmas, I have some gift card holders to post soon also.

If you are not sure what WOYWW is then head on over to the Stamping Ground to see what all the fuss is and share your pictures of what is on your workdesk Wednesday and see what other crafters are working on.

WOYWW # 360

Hello! I have not been around lately. Just too much going on and not enough time to do it all. I hope everyone is having a nice spring. The month of April is just flying by. I am posting a picture of my craft table today as a part of What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday. I haven't posted to WOYWW in a long time. If you are not familiar with WOYWW, it is hosted by Stamping Ground and it is just a fun way to post to your blog what is currently on your desk and peck at other crafters desks.

My desk is a mess! I haven't been down there in almost a month. That scrapbook page was started over a month ago. It is almost done but I just can't seem to squeeze anytime in to go and finish it. I need to do something about my time management, LOL.

There is just a lot of "stuff" strewn around the tables that needs to be put away and pictures that need to be scrapped. The latest Easter picture is off to the right. On he left I have a package of tiny clothes pins. For some reason I have been obsessed with those things lately. I keep buying them when I see them on clearance but I have yet to use them!

Borders - Creative Knockouts #136

Hello and happy Thursday! It is time for another challenge at Creative Knockouts. The theme this week is borders and the sponsor for the challenge is Sassy Studio Designs. I was given Wonder Woman Sassy to work with, thank you!

I did something a little outside the box with the border challenge. I used a Martha Stewart border punch but I didn't use the border I cut out but instead I used the positive pieces that we normally throw away. I colored the image with Copic markers.

Hello and happy Thursday! I have been enjoying some gorgeous weather. I hope that means spring is right around the corner!
