Shoebox Swap Cards

I hosted a Demonstrator Shoebox Swap back in late March.....I've finally uploading the cards from that event. We had a GREAT time - can't wait to do it again! Here are the cards we all got to take home!

April Cards

This was the view at my house on Monday, April 28th! Unbelievable....well not really....I do live in Wisconsin! Enough with the snow! Every time we try to pump all the water off the top of the pool cover - it snows or rains again!




























I LOVE the new Tart & Tangy stamp set in the Occasions Mini Catalog - it's too fun! I came up with this card - and it was a big hit for my April classes!

We also tried out hands at the Shaving Cream technique - it's a ton of fun too!

Who can resist Sassy Suzie - everytime I read one of the word stamps in that set - it brings a smile to my face!




















Thanks for looking!

P.S. If there are a ton of spaces between these cards - I apologize! I have tried and tried to get rid of those darn spaces!!! It looks like they are gone on my screen and then when I go to "preview" this posting - it inserts a bunch of spaces again! If anyone knows how to make this stop - let me know.....

Confirmation Card

My daughter was confirmed on Sunday!!!! Here she is and the card I made for her and the thank you cards I made. Gotta LOVE that Cuddlebug!

Confirmation Invitations

Hailey's confirmation is this Sunday - BOY where does the time go????

I wanted to keep this very small....so I sent these out to the grandparents and Hailey's older sisters. This layout is from a swap card I got on the SU cruise - I LOVE IT!

April Scrap Pages

Here are the pages my 10-10-15 Scrapbooking group made for April. I chose the layout from one of the 12x12 swaps I received on my SU Bermuda Cruise. I used Craft Ink on the "Silly" title and embossed it with Clear Embossing Powder. TIP: you can click on the photo to see more details.

Here are the completed pages - I didn't have any shortage of "silly" pictures to choose from.

Is my kid funny or what????

Rose Cottage Scrappin Kit

Here's another bridal shower gift made with the Rose Cottage Simply Scrappin' Kit! My wonderful step-daughter - Stephanie, got all the bridesmaids together for an upcoming bridal shower and they each made a double page layout for the bride! What a keepsake!



Most of these ladies had never scrapbooked! That's why our Simply Scrappin' Kits are sooooooooo fabulous!



The pages that say "mom" on them were actually done by a little girl....all by herself!
