Summer Flowers

I love paper with flowers! Especially when they are as bright and vivid as the paper I used on these two cards. The first card is made with paper from the new DS paper, Island Oasis. The second card and notebook were made with DS paper from the Pink Flamingo pack. I am a paper freak. I love paper! Seeing nice stacks of colored paper makes me happy! Some people buy shoes, I buy paper. I think most of the stampers and scrappers out there understand my obsession.

I should have taken the card out of the sleeve I put it in. I put cards in cellophane bags so they stay unharmed until I go to use it. More to come! Have a good night!

Rockabilly Recipe Book

My dear friend, Cathy celebrated her birthday yesterday. She saw a recipe book that I made for my niece over a year ago and simply teased me that she would like one... Well, I finally got around to it! Above is her birthday card and below are pictures of the recipe book. SU's Rockabilly paper really makes it pop! I wish I had more time to make each page a little more decorative, but I think she will be happy to get the recipes. Now, she just needs to share all of her recipes with me!! :)

Queen's of the Court

I made these cute little notebooks for my tennis team and gave them out at our party last night. We all had such a great time and even wore crowns to prove that we are queens! LOL! This new cricut cartridge is just the best! I believe it is "Sports Mania", but I will have to run downstairs and double check. Below are pictures of some of the queens!

Another Notepad

I just had to try another one! I whipped this one out pretty fast!

Cute Notepads

I can't believe that I haven't tried to do this before! I had seen so many decorated notepads and thought they would just take too much time. Especially since you have to take the wire binder off! Boy, was I wrong! This was so darned easy and fun!! I just love how they turned out! I am going to be making these forever, now! YAY!!

I made this notepad for my daughter. I used the "Just Jawing" stamp set with the Rockabilly DS paper. (Funny, I always thought it was Rockability) ha!

This one is a little more mature. The paper is from the packet "Bella Blue" and the sentiment is from the new stamp set "Sense of Time" that will be available to purchase on April 1st through our Occasions Mini Catalog. The monogram letter is from the "Lovely Letters" stamp set. Can't wait to make more of these little cuties!

Taylor's Agenda!

I am so proud of Taylor! She asked me to make her an agenda to last her for the rest of the year, since her school one was totally trashed! I used my new binding machine that I got for my birthday (first time!!) to put it together. She asked me to put some card stock in between weeks so that she could decorate them. I think it turned out very cute! She isn't done with the "scrapping" part of it yet. This is from a girl who swore she didn't want to ever scrapbook and look what she did! WOW! She even told me, "Hey, this is more fun than I thought it would be!" That is huge! Yea!!!
She used the "So Cool", "Seriously Sassy" and "So Very" stamp sets from Stampin' Up!. Taylor also used some punches and sticker letters. The word "agenda" was cut with the cricut. Let's see where she goes from here!

Michelle's Cookbook

What have I just done!?! I have entered a whole new world of communicating that, quite frankly, makes me a little nervous. I am doing this for you...my stamping and scrapping friends. I want to post pictures of things we have made in our stamp camps. So, for those of you who miss one month, you can still see what we have done. This is also for you, Mom and Mickey. Hope you get inspired to find the time to create some cards, crafts, etc. XO, Reg
