Retro Pocket Letter

I have been making several pocket letters for swaps, lately.  Here is a retro looking one I made using some scraps and stickers from Crate Paper.

On a side note, all you prayer warriors out there, I have an unspoken prayer request.  My family really needs your prayers right now, please.  Thank you so much!!  Hope you all have a safe and happy 4th of July weekend.

Hugs,

6th Grade Graduation Layout

Hi!  I wanted to share the layout of my nephew's 6th Grade graduation.  I used the cute Graduation Owl svg file from Kadoodle Bug Designs.  They are currently having an 80% Off sale until midnight July 6th, so be sure to check them out.

Fathers Day Toolbox Box Card

I forgot to post this earlier... here is the Father's Day card I made for my Dad.  
The svg file is from www.svgcuts.com Mary & Leo from SVGCuts make it so fun and easy to create these awesome box cards.  They do an amazing job with their svg's.

My artsy hubby helped with drawing the brand names onto the tools. Thanks John! :)

Hello Kitty Pocket Letter

Recently, I came across a somewhat new concept in scrapbooking called Pocket Letters.  Read all about them here:

I have already made several.  Here is a Hello Kitty Pocket Letter for my dear friend and fellow KCCropper, Kitty.  She is a big fan of Hello Kitty.

Pocket Letters are a lot of fun.  I'm currently in swaps with individuals from Canada, Kansas, and two from Florida.  Its a great way to meet fellow paper crafters, too.

Newest Layouts

I have been MIA for awhile... took a break from papercrafting but I'm back now and have several projects to show you.  I'm currently working on a few albums for my niece.  Here are some of my most recent layouts.  I have also started making pocket letters... more about those to come later this week.  They are similar to Project Life, if you are familiar with that and lots of fun to make.

Panda Bear Belly Box

My Mother-in-law has been in the hospital all week... So to brighten up her room, I made her this Panda Bear Belly box (svg file from "My Scrap Chick"). She likes Pandas.  Not sure what I'm actually going to put into it BC she's currently on a liquid diet so no candy. I was thinking maybe some artificial spring type flowers.

Hugs & Kisses Baby Girl Layout

   
I am soooo behind on my scrapbooking.  I have been making other papercrafting projects and cards lately and haven't been doing many layouts for quite some time.  So I have decided I need to get on the ball and get more done.  I'll try to post them here as I complete them.  

To create this layout of my little niece, I used both George and Basic Shapes Cricut cartridge and Sugar & Spice Cricut Lite cartridge.

I am also really bad about not getting my photos printed until a later date and then I forget the date of when the actual photos were taken.  So I decided to try and get all the photos I take each month printed at the end of the month and jot on the back info about each pic... that will make journaling so much easier. We'll see if I can do it!
