Living in the Moment

This was a class this past week. I had the flowers with black left from a previous class so this is what I came up with. I used a stitched banner to match the white stitching on the leaves.

Matching card

I haven't posted the class pages yet that this goes to but I have done the matching pages for sale. Here is my card to coordinate.

Purple mania

A poor last sheet of patterned paper left on the sales floor so I turned it into a page for sale. But then liked the results. So found similar papers and made Page Kits for the store.

More teeny roses

 And a double page with all the same elements.  and the teeny roses added to centers again. I did a video on our FB page on how easy it is to make them. Be sure to check it out. We carry the dies to make these flowers yourself for your pages and cards.

I inked the tips of the flowers.

Family

Another page for sale. If you are behind on your pages.....we always have pages for sale in the store. And all the hard work is done!!

Large and small roses

 Another page for sale. I added my teeny hand made roses to the centers of the larger roses.

Burlap flowers

We got in these cute little burlap flowers and I was waiting to use them. I was using the patterned paper for an upcoming class and noticed they also matched the paper perfectly. This is a page for sale.

Fall Floral Page

 Just a easy page because I liked the paper. I usually don't get to do many fall projects since we start Christmas at the store in July. And the fall color palette is my favorite.

I used one of the new Cheery Lynn floral dies. And used a stylus to curve the longer fern ones.

Pages for sale

 My camera is just not doing the items justice anymore. Never crisp and clear.

Best Day Ever!

 Another quick page kit for the floor. And I used a Heartfelt Creation flower die to make the flowers.

Rising Star Page Kit

I made a bunch of rosettes and then cut lots of stars and created a Page Kit for the floor. Only $5.95 including an extra sheet for a 2 page layout and all the hard work is already done.

Version 2 Poppies

There were only 4 sheets of the peach patterned paper left on the floor. Connie and I have been on a mission to make pages for sale out of the ones with very few left so we can make room for all the new product arriving.

Peach Poppies

                               A new flower die to play with. This is the poppy die by Heartfelt Creations.

Fall Foley

                                                                           A fall page.

Purple Puffy Butterldies

This was using the last of a paper but I picked out some similar today and will make a Page Kit for the store.

Emmett

Photos are from a day of fun we had 2 years ago with a little guy we adore.

Puffy Butterflies

 The teal was made into a page kit. The pink is just from left overs so a page for sale. The cute corner dies are MFT.

Page for Sale

And a page for sale out of the leftover patterned paper from yesterdays page. The pink flowers are new and are actually burlap. We received them in assorted colors.

Not Again

 I spent the entire past weekend in my craft room working on projects for the store but took time out to do a couple pages for myself for a change. The photos are from a year ago and I haven't even dressed them for a photo op this year at all! Not even at Halloween time. Sad when I don't even have time for that. See how tolerant they are of me?

This is a double bow made by the Bow-It-All and I have a video on the stores FB page showing how easy it is to use. It's my new toy to play with. You'll be seeing more bows from it in future posts and classes and Page Kits and make-n-takes.

Large flower

I had made a 2 foot flower for our Annual Cancer Crop and someone requested a class on it. I made one out of patterned papers for the class so they can see a solid and a pattern design. And I'll just hang it in my craft room at home when it's done. I went to Iowa to the Taylored Expressions Stamp Joy in October and got a tour of the warehouse and craft room. They had several sized paper flowers decorating the craft room and I thought it was a perfect thing!

Your Life was a Blessing

 Time for a personal page. If I try to do one every now and then I may get all my photos done....by 2099!! I am so far behind since the store comes first and mine come last. This is my sweet grandma who I still miss dearly. she truly was my gma, mom and friend all in one.

Gingerbread Girl

And a quick page-for-sale out of the leftover pieces from a page kit. And just added a cute gingerbread embellishment we sell at the store.

Tis the Season

                                               Some quick page kits made for the store.

Serenity

Created these over the weekend. Might be my Christmas card this year for close family.

I use a Copic marker on the white to make look more like birch trees.

Cancer Crop 2016

 Just some of the treats and such we made for our attendees this year. Love spoiling our customers at our special hosted weekends.
