Good morning my Scraptastic friends!

Next are a couple from Juliann.....one with the "In The Hood" kit and the other from the "Classic Girl" kit.....

Such amazing work as always!

Don't forget to check in tomorrow as we start off a weekend o challenges, prizes and sales, as we start to celebrate NSD!

finally finished my frames......

Good morning my Scraptastic friends!

I finally finished my Mother's Day frames last night and I wanted to share them with you.

This one is for my Mother-In-Law.....and I used the "Classic Girl" kit for this frame.

This one is for my Mom (she's loves her puppies).

And this one you saw on Sunday, it's for my Step-Mom.

I'd also like to share another LO from DT Heather Landry.......

I hope that you all have a wonderful day!

mother's day frame

Good morning my Scraptastic friends!

Today I'd like to share a Mother's Day frame with you and it's super easy to do.

I picked up a frame at Michaels, I found it with all the wooden projects. And you know I had to pull out the Mod Podge for this one (love that stuff). This frame was super easy to make, and I just love how it turned out. I picked out the PP (from the Scraptastic Club kit "classic girl"), then I traced the out side of the frame and cut it out. Then I placed the frame on the PP upside down and used my exact o knife to cut out the opening in the middle of the frame. I then Mod Podged the paper to the frame. When it was dry (wait 15-20 minutes) I sanded around all of the edges to make it all flush. And then I then painted all of the sides black and when that was dry, I Mod Podged the whole frame again to seal it. For the butterfly, I used a wooden butterfly from my stash, painted the whole thing black first, then I traced the outline of the butterfly with the PP that I wanted to cover it in. I mod Podged the PP to the butterfly, used my exact o knife to cut away some of the excess, then sanded around all the edges, Mod Podged again to seal it, then I added some pearls and gems from my stash.

 

Before I go, I also wanted to share a LO I did based on last week's sketch at Sketch Inspiration.

 

 

I used the "Classic Girl" kit for this one and I made the alphas with my Cricut. It was hard to find embellishments from that kit to go with this LO, maybe I'll print out some Chuck E. Cheese pics to add to it.

Here's the sketch from Sketch Inspiration:

Don't forget to check out their new sketch which is up!!!!!!!

Thanks for letting me share with you today! I hope that you all have a wonderful day!

sharing lots of scrappy goodness.....

Good morning my Scraptastic friends!

I've got lots to share with you this morning, so grab a cup of joe and enjoy......

I used the May kit "Classic Girl" for this one (There's still 1 regular kit, 1 subscription kit and 1 add-on left)

"Classic Girl"

Good morning my Scraptastic friends! Today I'd like to share a card that I made last night with the "In The Hood" kit.....which is now sold out. 

Home Sweet Home

What a fun line this is to work with.....love it! I based this card on this weeks card sketch over at Let's Scrap.

As I mentioned above....all of the "In The Hood" kits and add-ons are gone....but there's still one of each left of the second May kit "Classic Girl"

two new kits and a chick magnet

Good morning my Scraptastic friends! Yesterday was a great day.

 

1. I finally had time to scrap, it's been like 2 weeks (other than my wall art projects). So I broke into the May kit "In The Hood", this is an Easter picture of Declan when he was itty bitty.

 2. The rest of the "Classic Girl" kit arrived yesterday. 

Here are the pictures for both of the May kits......

"In The Hood" subscription kit......there's only 1 left

"In The Hood" regular kit.....there's only 1 left

"In The Hood" Add-On.....there's only 1 left

"Classic Girl" Subscription kit.....there's only 2 left

"Classic Girl" Regular kit......there's only 1 left

"Classic Girl" Add-On.....there's only 2 left

Today for me will be spent catching up on my housework (what else is new?) Trying to get some scrapping done in between cleaning. And, possibly taking the kids to see HOP.

I hope that you all have a wonderful Saturday and a Happy Easter.
