All the non-rectangle shapes were cut out with various Spellbinder nestabilities and the rectangle shapes were distressed with CTMH Garnet ink.

The bunny image stamp is from Lili of the Valley and the sentiment stamps are from Stampendous.

Copic Markers used: Bunnies - E41, E43 & YR0000; Mushroom - E09, E18, E34, YR14 & YR18; Flowers - YR24

Anniversary Card

This is an Anniversary Card that I came up with to give to different couples in my family from my grandparents. I enjoyed making it so much that I made 5 of them in total.

I used BoBunny's Crush 6 x 6 paper pack with Bazzill Cardstock.

I used CTMH's "A Game" stamp set for the Tic Tac Toe image with Stampin' Up Riding Hood Red & Regal Rose Ink.

The photo corners were punched out with Stampin' Up's photo corner punch and the small hearts were punched out with Fiskars hand held heart punch.

On the inside of the card, I used Stampin' Up's "Bring on the Cake" stamp set to stamp the sentiment around the edge. I just used a black pen to draw in the dots. The "Happy Anniversary" stamp is from My Sentiments Exactly.

Card Size: 5 x 5

Here is the birthday card that I made my cousin Jason back in May.

I used My Mind's Eye Fine and Dandy True Blue 6 x 6 paper pack and Bazzill Cardstock.

Welcome Rhylan!

Here is the two page spread (April 2011) that I contributed to Rhylan's 12 x 12 baby album that 13 of my girlfriend's and I put together for our girlfriend's new baby girl.

It's a great gift idea. One side of the layout is ready for the photos of the baby from that month and the other side is a calendar that can be easily used to record all the important information that you want to record about the baby.

Rhylan was born in April, so our album went from April 2011 - April 2012. This way Rhylan's first year is easily scrapbooked & documented without taking a lot of mom's time away from her.

For my pages, I used an old line from SEI from my personal stash. You know Jennifer is a good friend of mine, when I dip into my personal stash instead of going to my store for paper.

I cut the big heart out on my cricut machine, sewed around the edges, added some ribbon from Fabricland, threw in a journal area and some photo mats and VOILA!

This layout was a lot of fun and a bit difficult for me. I don't usually use a patterned paper with so much white on it, but I wanted to have a baby soft feel to it and I think I accomplished that.

Congratulations Pearson Family!

This was the card I made for the Pearson Family when their newest addition entered their family back in April.

I used patterned papers from My Mind's Eye Stella and Rose Hazel 6 x 6 paper pack and Bazzill cardstock.

The ribbon is from American Crafts, the flowers are from Prima Marketing and the brads are from my stash.

I used Spellbinder nestabilities for the die cuts behind the teddy bear and an EK Success border punch for the side bar on the front of the card.

The teddy bear image stamp is from CC Designs, the "congratulations" stamp is from Stampin' Up's "Something to Celebrate" stamp set and the other sentiment is from CTMH's "Enjoy Every Moment" stamp set.

Happy Birthday Amy from G & G

This is the birthday card that I made for my grandparents to give to Amy for her 13th birthday.

I used Basic Grey Euphoria 6 x 6 paper pack with Bazzill Cardstock.

To embellish the card, I used Stampin' Up corduroy brads, American Crafts shear ribbon, Prima Marketing flower & brads from my stash.

The number "13" was cut out with my Cricut Machine, the sentiments are from CTMH's "Card Chatter - Birthday" stamp set and the image stamp is from the Greeting Farm's "Miss Anya's Hat's Off" stamp set.

As for the Copic Markers that I used, I have misplaced the piece of paper that I had them written down on. I made this card over 2 weeks ago and I had to write the copic markers down in a different spot than usual since my daughter and I share a scrap room. Therefore, I have hidden it in such a good place that I can't recall where it is.
