First A very simple and clean page. A few things happening on the photo and LO itself. Photo was changed to an antique sepia spotted colored image (only the mittens have color), plus the title and journaling are also part of the picture, making good use of some dead space. In the LO, the Fancy Pants Rub-on only extended into the first mat, so I doodled the rest and added some additional rub-ons from a different rub-on image.
LO created with The Scrapping Edge Kit, digital elements my own creation.


One more simple LO, when I snapped this picture I purposely left the left and bottom pieces of the photo to add a title or maybe some journaling. I loved how removing some but not all of the color from the picture, makes you see all the wood around my little one (yes, she is under a bench). I digitally added the title to the photo and then put some ribbon on top when finishing the LO.

Same picture different take, I wanted no hard edges on this page, none at all (w/ the exception of the ribbon and the stitching). I created a few circular frames and changed their colors to go w/ the papers and photos, and then added the title around the path of the frames. Just a fun way to call some interest into that cute baby!

One this hybrid LO, I modified the photo so it had a dreamy look. I removed the colors too, since the original color were to bright to convey the dreamy effect I was looking for.

I had the good luck to find the Tinkerbell cartridge for the Cricut on clearance for a really great price and ended up making this LO for a couple challenges and for Harmonie Loisirs Creatifs (a Canadian Company, Happy Belated Canada day).
The Sun and the yellow phrase are cuts from the Tinkerbell cartridge. The Sun is cut out using Harmonie Loisirs Creatifs papers, and cover w/ some of their buttons. The swirly journaling stamp is also from Harmonie.

A few years back, my sweet hubby said that he would make me some cool stamp furniture, to hold all my stamps and punches. So he started buying tools, and more tools, until he had all he needed… well, I don’t even remember how long ago was that, but he seems like at least 8 years younger and 50+ pounds lighter in that picture… LOL!!! He did get me some cool IKEA furniture for my room… LUV’ YA pumpkin!

[Hello] ladies! This post has double duty: 1 – to lead you to some blog CANDY! and 2 – for a submission for a DT. The company is brand new it is called Nutcrafters (the name just cracks me! pun intended). You can check out the BLOG CANDY HERE! For the DESIGN TEAM CALL check on the previous link. They gave us a digital image and a sketch and I went to town. I enlarged the image a tad (a bit more than a tad), did some ribbon piecing (made her dress out of ribbon), some paper piecing for her hair and shoes. I like it. I colored her w/ Prisma Color Pencils.
