Say It With Letters Scissor project

Here is my April project from Say It With Letters. The team was given either a scissor shape or the word "SEW" to create with. Once again I had so many ideas swimming in my head when I saw the fun scissor shape and decided to give it a modern/vintage twist. I tried not to over think it and just went with the flow and added a mix of cute embellishments. The creative possibilities are truly endless with the large selection of words, letters and awesome shapes Deb offers in her store. If you are looking for a unique gift idea, why not give a wooden shape a try.

 

Be sure to check out the gorgeous projects from the team! Awesome can't even begin to describe what they created! Also check out their beautiful new addition to their lovely family. Huge Congratulations to you Deb! You can see it all here.

Circle layout featuring SRM Stickers- and other stuff

Seeing Kara was amazing!!! She looks fantastic and I can tell that she has grown so much in just a few months. It was hard for me to leave her there in Great Lakes, but she's a grown up now and on her own and I have to accept that, even though it's not easy. lol She will stay there for her A school until October/November-ish and then hopefully she will get to come home for 2 weeks before she gets stationed on a ship. She is classified as a Fireman/Engineer. She told me she really enjoys the firefighting work and is eager to dig into more training. Have I mentioned how proud I am?!

Onto scrappy stuff. Our SRM DT challenge for the month was to use circles. I actually made 2 layouts for this one; one I was not thrilled with and then I replaced it with another that I like so much better. I am struggling with my style right now and trying to find a groove... it will emerge in time. lol 

Here is the layout I posted for the challenge. I just love this photo of my dad and Kara at her high school graduation last June. My wonderful SIL Jessica took this photo and it speaks to me. I used 3 sets of sticker sheets to create the background. I really like how it turned out.

April E.A.D Blog Hop day!

wahoo! I am on my way to Chicago right now. Kara graduates from boot camp tomorrow morning and I am blessed that I am able to be with her and spend some precious time with my sweet baby girl this weekend. I have to soak it up because I am not sure when I will get to see her again. I never thought I would manage to get through this time... it has seriously dragged, however the past week or so has been easier. Maybe it's because I get to see her soon or maybe just because I have learned to live without her. Maybe it's a bit of both. She is still the first person I think about in the morning and the last prayer I say at night.

Onto the scrappy stuff... The theme for this months hop is lime and pink. For my first project I created this wall hanging of this adorable kitty cat vinyl piece for Skylar. It is prrr-fect for her because the girl is obsessed with cats... and tulle and green. lol The base is actually one of my Cropper Hopper index pieces that I have had sitting around. I added some dimension to the cat by placing him on some lime green pp and then cutting around him. I also used some pieces of pp to add details to one of the eyes, the nose and ears, even the tummy area. The word was also placed on the same lime green pp and then I carefully cut them out as well.

 pp: Pink Paislee, Heidi Swapp, SEI, Basic Grey and Bo Bunny.

stickers: Doodlebug Designs

I also created a card for Kara. I used a word from the Sweet Sentiments Vinyl sheet. To give it some dimension I applied the letters to blocks of patterned paper and then placed the blocks randomly on the card.

cards featuring new Stickerz from E.A.D

Just a quickie today. Do you know that E.A.D has something new called Stickerz? These are perfect for creating cards. I used some of the clear Mothers Sheet to create these two cards.
More Stickerz are coming soon, so keep your eyes open.

Tune in tomorrow because it's time for the monthly E.A.D blog hop! Always a favorite day of mine! :)

BLS Over the Top challenge

For my first solo project from BLS I was given an "over the top" project. I used one of these fun Festive Wine Bottle tags. To make this I simply printed the image onto some Bazzill cardstock and cut it out. I then added some beading along the bottom, some rub ons and a butterfly die cut with some bling to finish it off. This took about 10 minutes total.
I have given wine as a gift and these pretty tags help to make an inexpensive and pretty personalized tag for any gift or special occasion.

Thanks for stopping by! I would love to see what you've made with these tags. Please share your creations with me. :)
