"Mothers"


Hi Everyone!
It's time for our new challenge at Simply Create Too. Our theme this time is another one of my faves.  I just love making stuff for my mom.  I had so much fun creating my Butterfly Mini Album!    Yeppers you got it,  that's right our theme is "Mothers/or female"!

Once again everything came from my endless stash! (except the pics)  Even the template I bought 3 years ago from Laura at Following the Paper Trail.  I only purchased the template and never used it until now.  


The cover bases are chipboard and the inner page bases are upcycled cereal boxes.  Each side has room for 4 photos.  The inside has 6 full butterflies when opened.  That's a total of 48 pics!








There are four wing tag inserts on each full page.  I decided to leave the front of each insert alone and didn't add any pics to them.  These pics really don't show how gorgeous the album really is.


Before giving this to my mom I told her I needed to make some copies of some of her favorite photos and I put them in the album for her.  It was a wonderful surprise for her and she loves it!  Thanks Laura for being so creative!


I am entering my album into the following challenges:


Hope to see you all join in the fun at Simply Create Too!

It's a Winner!


Hi Everyone!

Just wanted to share some more of the milk cartons and crates that I made.   


I used one of my Saturated Canary digis for this one.  Isn't she a cutie patootie!  Love the colors and how it turned out.



Too bad I missed the deadline to enter it into the SC color challenge...oh well life does get in the way...lol 

Made these for all those special kiddo's in my life.  They are the largest size cartons I could make with a single piece of 12 x12 DP.    Got some yummies and these cute little monkey's at the Dollar Store.

These are the tiny ones I made for my clients.

I would like to enter these into the following challenges:

Valentine's Day Hogs & Kisses



Hi Everyone!
It's time for our new challenge at Simply Create Too. Our theme this time is one of my faves!  That's right what can be sweeter than Valentine's or Hearts?  Well, adding chocolate to the mix of course!

I made these cute little Milk Crates with Chocolate filled Milk cartons.   Yum Yum!... well yummy for everyone that gets one...lol.  


I made the four crate sets in various sizes.  They were so much fun to make. You can find all kinds of Tutorials on You Tube and Split Coast Stampers.  


There are a lot of tutorials out there, just find the one you like.  I looked at several, combined what I liked and added some of my own alterations and measurements.  Who thought that math would be so useful in creating..


Everything I used came from my Stash, including this cute little SU Stamp.  My Cuttlebug, some die cuts and embossing folders got a workout.


I made this double crate out using this cute little Valentine Grumpy from Smeared Ink.  



This batch will go to family and friends.  I am making just single Milk Cartons for my clients.  I am debating if I shouldn't buy the Milk Carton Die.  I do so like sizing them to suit...what to do...


I will be entering all these yummy treats into the following challenges:

Hope to see you all join in the fun at Simply Create Too!
