Spring is COMING!

Spring has sprung! Not that we've really had any winter here this year...and it was 50+ F today! Looking forward to another unseasonably warm day tomorrow too!

With that said, I created some spring-y projects for Xyron's recent appearance on HSN! Love the DCWV paper stack that I got to play with too...Lemon Flower...and some Xyron Shapez by Spellbinders (the flower pot flowers!)

Let's start with my fave...the flower pot with paper flowers! This one was time consuming, but oh, so worth the effort!

Next a thank you card:

A layout highlighting my nephew's personality:

And finally, an altered frame featuring my youngest niece:

Thanks for popping by today!

 

Another couple o' layouts...

I've had some good mojo lately...good timing too, as I've got a handful (well, more like 2 handfuls!) of last minute CHA layouts that need creating! But here's some non-CHA goodness on a couple of recently completed layouts...

 

Mostly Ormolu goodies on this one...some Studio Calico letters and Prima resin flowers, a Basic Grey fabric brad and Jillibean Soup patterned paper...

This one (also features my daughter) was created with a Studio Calico kit, Brooklyn Flea...

 

This layout definitely has more 'stuff' on it than I usually use, but I think I like it?

I started subscribing to the Studio Calico kit club a couple of months ago, mostly to get some products in a style that I normally wouldn't buy...I like that it's pushing me creatively too...

OK, off to tackle my CHA projects...wish me luck!

Two layouts...

Two layouts to share today...the first was created with some Picadilly from Basic Grey (available at the Scrapbooking Studio)...love how 'springy' this one feels...

the second uses a Studio Calico kit (County Fair) and is based on the Sunday Sketch up on the Studio Calico blog...the picture is my son and his cousin in their Christmas duds...

Of course, everything is held together with my trusty Xyron Mega Runner Adhesive (I LOVE that thing!)

Got to get busy with some last minute CHA projects (9 to be exact)...so see you all later!

Some Valtentine's Day Cards...

I was lucky enough to get away Saturday and crop with some friends at The Scrapbooking Studio in Moline, IL....it was a fun, relaxing and PRODUCTIVE day!

Here are some Valentine's Day Cards I got finished at the crop:

The patterned papers are Love Me by My Mind's Eye (designed by Robyn Meierotto), the flair buttons are by Shelley Haganman, the 'I love you' tag is by Ormolu and of course, the adhesive is Xyron!

Thanks for stopping by, hoping to get my completed layouts posted yet this week!
