Splish Splash





This LO is from Tommys 1st year of swimming lessons. He was afraid of water, even the bathtub, before this. And now he LOVES the water. They were some cold mornings, but it was worth it and we had a blast!! Had to make my own embellies cuz I didnt find any I liked, and I dont have the new beach cart...

Happily Ever After



Here is the LO from Auntie Colies Wedding. I used the Luxury Stack for the background papers. You cant tell, but they are all shimmery papers.

Rub-a-Dub


This is a LO of the first bath the boys took together. Tommy wanted to help hold Alex up so I could clean him up. Not entirely happy with this LO, but at least I have something done... The same LO for both books.

Wonder Hopes Dreams

This was a simple LO using a preprinted paper for the majority of the design. I also added some flowers with skittles in the middle (have to use the flowers before he's old enough to say he doesnt want them... I really like the way this one turned out! Two LOs in a row with no cricut!

Valentines Day Treats

Here are the treat boxes I made for Tommys school. They are filled with starburst. Here is a LINK to the directions for the triangle box. The paper is embossed using various folders. The Cherries are stamped ( one of the $1 mini stamps) and then heat embossed. The circle text is done in Microsoft Word
