Razzleberry love....

I have been staring at my new stampin' Up! stuff for a while. The new colors are growing on me. I kind of had a jump start since I joined a swap and we had to use a new sneak peek SU set and products out of the catty that goes live on July 1st. This is what I created:


I did a lot of looking around to get some ideas for the card layout and finally my design came to life! Wahoo! Now I just need a few more hours to play with the rest of my new goodies and get a little scrapping in as well. Wish me luck!



Materials used (all SU): Cardstock- Crushed Curry, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, and Whisper White. Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper. Kind and Caring Thoughts Hostess set. Markers- Rich Razzleberry, Crushed Curry, and Old Olive. Misc.- Silver Brads, Distress Tool, Scallop Border Punch, Rich Razzleberry Pokadot Ribbon.

Happy Father's Day....

Here is the card I made my Dad for Father's Day. I just love how it turned out. When I was born I had lots of hair all over and my parents called me a monkey. So, I thought it to be only fitting to make him a card with a monkey on it. : ) I used three of my cricut cartridges- Calligraphy Collection, Lyrical Letters, and Animal Kingdom! I was super excited to use some many on one project!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Father's Day! I am off to cook my Daddy dinner!

Food Drive Winners...

Anne made this layout for me during the May SwapACrop.... I love her creativity with the photos. These photos are from our food drive against the other city departments. The fire department collected the most amount of food. Those fire guys are always willing to pitch in when needed. Anyhoo, the paper she selected is just darling! I need to get my hands on some of it.

Hope you are having a great Sunday!

Sweet Sunday Sketch...

Yesterday was our annual Police/Fire golf tournament... I didn't do too bad at all. I do need to get out on the course a little more often. I had some wonderful drives. I was beaming a couple times! Heather and I start golf lessons on Thursday, she has decided to take up golf and I knew a few lessons surly wouldn't hurt me! :) I'll keep you posted on our success!

So, in between some golfing I jumped in and make a card based on the sketch to the above.


I just love it!

TGIF...

Wow we are already down one week for the month of June. Spring is practically gone. How sad.... it's my favorite time of the year!

Below is one of the layouts I made on my trip to the coast for my scrapbooking weekend. It also turned out to be perfect for May's Cricut challenge. We were to use a flower cut on a card, layout or altered project.


So, what do you think? The flower cut is from Home Decor. The pictures are another set from my trip to Korea. I was trying an Aloe beverage. It was quite tasty even with the aloe "buggers" and all. LOL

Hope you have a wonderful weekend! I'll be back later to show you some of the other layouts I have been working on.. busy little bee I have been!

Lot's of SNOW...

Okay so we did not just get a load of snow.. it was this winter. The following is a layout that was made by Miranda for me during May's SwapACrop. I just love how she did the layout. There are so many details that the picture does not do justice!



Hopefully my other layout will be here today so I can share it with you!

Happy Wednesday,
