Anniversary Projects

I loved making this layout and card in celebration of our wedding anniversary we just celebrated.  This picture was on my craft table for a while and I couldn't figure out what to do with it. Then after some days of sitting and also watching the "Seeing Double" challenge over at Two Peas, inspiration hit me.
 
Our wedding colors were red and silver so I used the various embellishments to tie it all together. I created the flowers with my Spellbinder dies and some leftover Christmas paper from Anna Griffin. Doesn't it look like the picture is on a bed of red roses? Just love how it turned out.
 
Also, I added the satin silver ribbon, the bling swirls and dots and the black glitter stickers for 7th yr.  For the title label, I stamped and heat embossed.
 
 
 
 




On the card, I used the same elements and rounded the corners. The inside paper housed my heart felt sentiments and a the same picture in red.
 
 

I made the frame with two Spellbinder dies.

 
 
 
On my next blog post, I will share some pictures from our anniversary weekend. So stay tuned!

Soul Sistah Painting

I love trying new things in art. It is like an adventure and a hearty challenge. So after I saw this picture of the soul singer Ledisi, I just had to try it. Love the dark eye shadow and the head tilted. So dramatic! When I first tried adding the blue eye shadow to my painting it looked cool to me. But when I had my hubby look at it he nicely told me the blue I did made her eyes look hollow! LOL! So I went back and added a lighter blue and that did it! So here are some pictures showing the progression of my version of Ledisi. Thanks for stopping by! Have a super day.

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and a cousin. It was so great to have m

Under the Trees (updated)

Last Sunday, my husband and I went to one of our local parks. It was a nice, sunny and warm afternoon but the breeze was just heavenly. We found a shady spot full of all types of trees and laid out and just relaxed. So here is a layout I did from that lazy Sunday. I scrap lifted this idea from Latrice Murphy's layout in the August 2014 issue of Paper Craft & Scrapbooking magazine on page 59. I saw the online copy and when I saw her layout, it went in my memory to try at some point. A great way to use up all those scraps I had sitting around, too. I love the wood grain paper paired with all the bright patterned paper.  We laughed as I took the "selfie" of us laying around. I splattered white gesso paint around. This little leather sticker was a fun touch. Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day! 7/25/14 After looking at this layout this morning I decided to add some gold glitter paper banners to really finish it off. Now I feel sati
