Hi Friends..I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Today I'm up over at the 3 Girl Jam Blog and I am excited to share my project with all of you here on my personal blog as well.
I created a romantic "Things I Love" mini using some of the yummy Crinkle Ribbon, Prima Romance Novel Collection and the Maya Road Top Tab Album.
I absolutely LOVE how this mini turned out. I actually only used half of the Top Tab album so I can make another one with a totally different look if I want to..love that!!
I tried to incorporate and use the ribbon in different ways other than just making a bow or wrapping it around a tag and I really liked how this turned out. I used some gold embossing powder around the edges and inked them a bit to give them the vintage feel.
I know this was quite a string of photos so thanks for sticking with me on this post. Be sure to head over to the 3GJ blog and grab yourself some of this amazing crinkle ribbon!
Be sure to come back for another scrappy post...I have a super exciting announcement that I'll be making on my blog later on today : )
Happy Craftin!!

Hi friends!! Today there is an exciting event happening over at Split Coast Stampers. The Scor-pal DT has joined in on the SCS 2013 Love Fest Flips, Flaps and Folds. Each of us created a card bursting with either flips, flaps or folds and shared it on the SCS website. You can check out the info on this event HERE. Here's my info on the card that's posted at the SCS website:
I chose to make a Tri-Shutter card which has lots of folds....
And here's what it looks like when you open it up...........
Such a fun and easy card to make that has some really cool folds in it which adds so much dimension and visual interest I think.
Be sure to check out the SCS website and check out the amazing cards by my fellow Scor-pal DT Sisters as well as the cards from the other companies that are joining in.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out another scrappy post : )
Happy Valentines Day Friends!!!
Hi Friends..today I want to share a DT project I made for Pink Persimmon. This was actually live on their blog January 30th (click HERE to see the post) but I wanted to share it on mine as well : )
I made this cute wall art for my work mom (yes at 40 I have a work mom..lol) for Christmas & she loved it.
I used the Pink Persimmon Mini Bingo stamp and I really love how it turned out.
To create the rasied portions of the bingo card I stamped this twice and cut out the decorative squares. I embossed them and added a dimensional dot on the back to make them really pop off the bingo card.
You can see the dimension a little more in this photo..
The "sweet" sentiment is from the Mini Silhouettes & Monograms stamp set
That yummy crinkle ribbon you see peeking out from the gorgeous Prima flowers is from 3 Girl Jam. Love that stuff!!!
More of the 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon tucked behind some Prima goodness.
If you haven't used any of the Pink Persimmon photopolymer stamps before..you MUST!! They stamp such clear sharp images on many different mediums. I've stamped with mine on fabric, ribbon, textured CS and much more.
Thanks for stopping by and for checking out another scrappy post AND I want to THANK all of my new followers. I seriously appreciate all of you who take the time to peruse my blog and see what I'm up to : )
Happy Scrappin!!

Hey everyone...today I have a sweet project to share with you. It's a Valentines Day card I made but I didn't use card stock for this one...it's chipboard....
I took a chipboard heart mini album I had apart and used two of the pieces to create my card. I still have enough to create a mini or to use for other projects if I want.
This was a DT project for 3GJ so you are going to see lots of yummy Crinkle Ribbon.
I wanted to use the crinkle ribbon in another way other than tying it on or wrapping it around my card so I layered it across one edge of the heart. It adds so much texture and interest. I love how this turned out.
Such a fun card and I know just the "Sweet Friend" who'll be getting this too : )

Today's post is all about a banner I made for ME!!! LOL Now you might be saying..hmm why's that so special..well most of what I design/create are projects that are for others or are DT projects so I was so happy to have a chance to create something for my home and I LOVE IT!!
I'm really excited to share this with you as this banner contains yummy products from some of my most favorite companies...Maya Road,Moni Ami Gabby & of course what project could I possibly do without Mr.Tim & his lovely line of goodies : )
Ok..I really struggle with trying to get a "good" shot of projects like this so I took some closer up in a different room so you could see all the details a bit better : )
I started off with the Maya Road Canvas Pennant album. I knew I didn't want to use it for an album (this time anyway) so I took the rings out so I could lay it out as a banner. The gorgeous fabric flowers are from Mon Ami Gabby.
I used some shabby embossing enamel on the Maya Road chipboard letters...love how they turned out...all chunky and distressed : )
Here's a closer pic of how they look...
Look at all that distressed/chunky/textured goodness!! The MR chipboard Blossoms took the embossing enamel perfectly!!
Here are a few pics of it after I hung it up...
And this is what I get to see when I walk in my front door : )

Hey everyone...what a fun post I have in store for you. Today another FAB challenge begins over at the 3G Challenge Blog!
What's the new exciting challenge you ask??? Well let's get right to it...a 3D Valentines challenge using ribbon. was our sponsor for this challenge so not only did I get to work with some yummy 3GJ crinkle ribbon, each of us on the 3GJ DT were able to work with their cotton muslin bags.
Here's what I came up with........
Love using the Crinkle Ribbon in fun new ways. I layered it on these chipboard hearts I cut...love how it turned out.
The large heart is from Maya Road, it's one of their Heart Tart Tins..I covered it using a vintage Valentines doily and topped it off with a sweet flower I made using more of the 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon and one of the awesome 3G Flair Buttons.
Just love using these in my projects...be sure to check these out at the 3GJ store if you haven't already.
The cotton muslin bags from State Line make a wonderful canvas to work with. So many creative possibilities with these bags!!!
Be sure to check out the 3GJ Challenge Blog to see all the details surrounding the challenge. There are some amazing goodies up for grabs: 25 Canvas bags from Stateline Bags co. and 1 bundle of 3GJ ribbon but wait...there's more....a Guest DT spot with 3GJ...how cool is that???
Also don't forget to stop by my 3GJ DT Sisters blogs and leave them some love as well.....I've seen their projects and they are awesome!!
Thanks for stopping by & happy crafting : )
