Be Happy Spring Layout

Good Evening Everyone!!

This is a layout that I got to make while I was at my grandma's house. I had the thought to put pictures of a nice spring day with my son on this layout. I have other bugs and I am going to be making another bug layout but it will be much different :) 




Recipe:
Turtle @ 3.25"
Bee @ 4"
Ladybug @ 2"
Caterpillar @ 3"
Snail @ 2.5"
be @ 2.75"
happy @ 2.75"
Shadow to be happy @ 2.75"

All of these cuts were from Walk in my Garden cartridge and cut out using my gypsy!

I have 2 of these layouts and one is for sale. Go check out my Etsy shop to buy it :)

First Airplane Ride

Hello Everyone!!!

Me and my son just got back home and settled from taking a little trip to see my Grandma up in Spokane! It was so much fun and needed to get away for a little bit. She crafts just like me and I was actually able to get 2 layouts and 3 cards finished while I was there. I am very excited about that!! I will be sharing them with you over the next few days!! 

Today I am going to start with the first Layout that I finished was. It is for my Sons first Airplane Ride. He did such an amazing job on the flight there and back. I was so impressed. There were people on the flight that didn't even know there was a baby on. It was great! I just got some pictures developed yesterday, So I will be starting to catch up on cards and Layouts. 


I used my gypsy to size and put everything together. It turned out great. And of course while I was there JoAnn's was having a great paper sale and so we were able to go there and get what I needed for this Layout :)

I am going to be starting a Wedding Album here very soon. I am working on designing it with my Gypsy. I won't be able to post the pages until the whole thing is done. I am making it for my mom who is getting married July 15th. I will post the whole thing when it is done. :)

My Creative Time's Throwback Thursday Challenge

Hello All!! Thank You for coming back to my blog today :). I made a few cards the other day and I am very excited to be sharing them with you!! 

I am just starting to really get my son on a sleeping schedule and man is it hard. He still sleeps a good amount of the time so timing those naps and feedings perfect can be challenging some days. He is already down for bed which is why I can be typing this. I made this card with the My Creative Time Challenge in mind. I am entering this card into her Throwback Thursday Challenge. 


Recipe:
Bird @ 3 1/4" using Kate's ABC's
Card is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
Layer is 4 x 5 1/4
Stamps are Sweet Cheeks Stamps

Thank You for coming by today. I have been working on finishing my pregnancy album and have 2 pages left. I am hoping to have to close to done and maybe even completed by this weekend. That is my short term goal! 

I have 1 more card that I will post tomorrow for you all to see. Please come back and take a look.

Happy Easter Card

This morning was a pretty good day in my house. My son was calm and didn't need to be held every second and I had some time to put together a card. I was able to cut out a whole bunch of pieces to different things so that I could just piece them together and not have to take the time to cut them out. So far 1 step at a time has been good!!

I was actually about to make a few cards tonight and am very excited about it!! I will post another card tomorrow and then the next day. 

Here is my awesome card:

The pattern was a freebie pattern that was from Treasure Box Designs and the Stamp is from one of my stamp sets. 

I have already addressed this card and am sending it out to my grandma in the morning. I am thinking I am going to have to make another one. I am loving how it came out and did not take long to do. 

Please make sure you stop by tomorrow and see the other cards that I got to make tonight.
