Happy Cardmaking Monday!

Hello everyone. I'm back again today with some more cards made with 6 x 6 paper pads harvest lane and summer fresh. I love the Simple Stories 6 x 6 paper pads for making cards the element cards make it so easy. I usually whip 4 of these cards together in about 30 mins - hour depending on how fast the creative juices hit me :-) Which is about all the time I get in a day to myself while the little one is napping. Haha. Enjoy and I hope everyone had a good Mother's Day yesterday. Once again I apologize that some of the cards are facing the wrong direction. I save them in the right direction and then when I upload them they turn. Anyone know how to correct that? Leave a comment or email me. Thanks :-)

Happy Wednesday!

Hope this finds everyone feeling well...feels like it's been forever since my last post... probably because it has been over a week! We just had that lovely stomach bug going around go through our house so I think everyone has recovered and it's great to see this nice weather and be able to open the windows and air the place out! Anyways, today I am wondering what scrapbook tool or embellishment you couldn't live without? Since starting to scrapbook just over 7 years ago, so many new products and tools have been introduced to the industry. I must say I like to use stickles, washi tape, and buttons on my layouts and cards. A new product released not along are the fantastic feathers from Bella Blvd (you can follow their blog for ideas and inspiration) check it out! I'll be posting some fall layouts I made with the Simple Stories Harvest Lane 6 x 6 paper pad later this week.

Introduction

Hello Blog followers! Welcome to my blog... bare with me while I get everything set-up the way I'd like it. A little about me. I have been paper crafting for about 7 years now, started when I was pregnant with my first daughter. My first project were making the cards for my baby shower (maybe I'll dig up a picture to share with you.) I've been a Memory Works consultant for just over a year now. I enjoy spending time with my 2 daughters, scrapping, as well as various other activities...just finding the time for it all can be interesting sometimes as I have a fulltime job out of the home as well. I will try to update at least once a week. Although, I am hoping to do it more often than that but let's start out with a small goal and work my way up :-) Thanks for stopping by and come back weekly for Memory Works updates and projects I'll share with you.
