Forget the snow...flower delivery pending


This is my submission for a Hanna Stamps Challenge on Splitcoaststampers where we had to use stitching of some kind on a project. I used Rub-on's from Doodlebug Designs named "sew easy". The holder is made out of a used folder from work that I cut down to the correct size.

Baby Buttons

This is my submission for this weeks CRAFTY SECRETS CHALLENGE on Splitcoaststampers. This week we had to use buttons on our layout. I picked up the ABC buttons forever ago with the idea to make baby cards. This baby image is from Crafty Secrets Wacky & Wonderful Vintage Images Booklet.

Another Bookmark

This week's Whiff of Joy challenge was to make anything but a card. I made this bookmark with "Lying Matthew" from the guardian angel collection. I love that it is a Boy image. The flourish is grunge board that has been made sparkly with black micro glitter.
