christmas 2008 continues

And here we are again back to Christmas 2008 and all the fun it was. I have a much smaller pile now and am feeling very motivated to continue. Here are the latest two creations.

This layout was so much fun and yet so simple. Love it when that happens. I found the paper in a stack I had and it screamed for these pictures. I used my Fiskars apron border punch to mimic the gingerbread roof for the top of the page and for the top of the journal box. I used some chipboard letters I have had FOREVER! I added stickles and puff paint to the house on the background paper to give it a little pizzazz. The kids look so young!!


This next one I am loving so much right now. I do not want to put it in an album because I will miss it!! Sometimes it just happens. These are pictures I took after Alex got a haircut right before Christmas. You can see the major difference between the page up above and the one below. He ages so much in a few days with the haircut!! I used some Basic Grey papers that I had which worked with the colors in the pictures. Added in some chipboard stars that I covered with paper and inked the edges of. I used my stitching tool from We R Memory Keepers and used some embroidery floss for the sewed border around both pictures. Like I said, I am loving this layout right now.


Have a great one! I am off to make some cards. At least that is the game plan- we'll see how far I get.

my first order complete!

I did it! I got the order completed! Not too bad considering it was the first few days of school. But I will admit that the laundry has been piling up. eeeek.

I am so happy with how these invitations came out! I added the pattern paper behind the egg since the white was not working for me at all! I love how the colors work together! I used my Silhouette Sybill to cut the egg, the white part of the eyes, the title and the triceratops. She was a busy little cutter!! I am in love again with my Sybill. mwah...

I did the information side of the invite using the Jurassic Park font. Love how that turned out.


Here they are all ready to go to their owner.


I also purchased the cutting file for these great triceratops birthday treat boxes. Twenty four pieces of cardstock later... we have treat boxes!! Let me tell you, Sybill got a work out that day!!


Seriously, how can you not love these???


I am very excited to deliver them to my fabulous first customer!! I think I can do this business thing.

May your day be full of happiness today (and every day)!
