Thank You

I made this thank you card using water color pens and stamps!  It was quite simple to do but looks very pretty.

Welcome to the World

Those of you who are regulars, know I have a new granddaughter. She is 47 days old now! The biggest drawback is they live in Phoenix and I live in Michigan. When I see her, which is just about monthly, I take tons of photos. It is fun trying to hold a sleeping baby while balancing a cell phone and camera and taking photos! But that is what I do!

I was lucky enough to receive a gift of Bella Blvd. Sweet Baby Girl Collection. It is just perfect for this!

Jamaica

In 2000, we enjoyed a family vacation in Jamaica to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary.  We enjoyed the beaches, snorkeling and family dinners at wonderful restaurants.  My daughter completed her Jamaican experience by getting her hair braided. It was a great look for her and perfect for the outdoor activities!

To complete this layout, I grabbed my 
Mix and Match Pad - Sand and Sea from Canvas Corp Brands


This pad has pattern paper, canvas printed paper, burlap and more!

I also used my Tattered Angels Mists - Brights and Coffee Shop



I misted the background and created layers of the waves with the pattern paper. After fussy cutting the Seahorse and Shell, I painted them with Coffee Shop.

These Mix and Match pads make it so easy to pull a layout together!

Let's Go

To celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary (2015), last year we took both kids and their spouses on a week tour of Italy. It was a great way to get a taste of different cities and parts of the country. Sad to say I have not really scrapped all of it yet. (Been a busy year with my daughter being pregnant)

But, I finally got to work. This page is a collection of the itinerary, luggage tags, map, etc. I love adding all of these things to my albums! I collect just about everything.

I used this sketch from StickitDown

Happy Mother's Day!

Just returned from brunch at my son and daughter's house. We had a lovely meal and I got candy and  flowers.

I spent all day yesterday at the Spring Art Market. I had a good day sales wise. Here was my display in the morning.

We will be having another sale in July so I might have to get to work!

Here is a canvas I completed. Part of the background was made with soapy paint bubbles.
