This is an Echo Park mini album that has pull out pages. I inked the edges of the cutout and now wish I wouldn't have. When I started out I had a completely different idea and as I progressed it took on a whole different process. Other than the inked edges I think it turned out pretty good. I hope she likes it. This lucky grandma gets this on Tuesday. <br />
I added a number of different ribbons to the rings mostly in pinks and whites but there's a couple of blues on there, too even though you can't see them very well in this picture.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimB6E0VE1Rw0kuk8vD70PjDTj1lzk_B24h0uXHofG5FfQbrvd6_1YjvTX5A2WDU6w4xDt18vlpb1aLTW3FKNSg8UR3zaqnZQj54DqaSIizcq_B9_38m6b_CwW15ks1VbNH5UYIs5AGOoA/s1600/IMG_0030.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimB6E0VE1Rw0kuk8vD70PjDTj1lzk_B24h0uXHofG5FfQbrvd6_1YjvTX5A2WDU6w4xDt18vlpb1aLTW3FKNSg8UR3zaqnZQj54DqaSIizcq_B9_38m6b_CwW15ks1VbNH5UYIs5AGOoA/s320/IMG_0030.JPG" /></a><br />
This is a picture of my friend Linda's daughter Alicia, her husband Jason and their new little one Lexi.<br />
Isn't she absolutely adorable??!!! This has a light blue lace trim to tie in Jason's blue striped shirt, some various layered paper flowers, I hand cut a circle then punched around it with a Martha Stewart corner punch to make a doily then inked the edges a bit and cut it in half and tucked it under the picture. I added a heart button, a jeweled bling piece, some mini rose trim, a butterfly and a stick pin I made.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnM_LxY1IergQp7jdLf9wi7TNifWgpqYaeuPCUn42TBsGFJRT5o5YyzaoZ1mefX5Z_mJ2uj1LprAStVv59IrgsPZ_KGTMPTH9rPelGepCcUIzqg4yJyZjs_JocZK1aabZr6vXN6yZAfFU/s1600/IMG_0032.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnM_LxY1IergQp7jdLf9wi7TNifWgpqYaeuPCUn42TBsGFJRT5o5YyzaoZ1mefX5Z_mJ2uj1LprAStVv59IrgsPZ_KGTMPTH9rPelGepCcUIzqg4yJyZjs_JocZK1aabZr6vXN6yZAfFU/s320/IMG_0032.JPG" /></a><br />
I used various papers from my stash and rounded the edges of the pics and the mats with my 1/2" corner chomper, blue lace around the edge, some flowers and some jeweled bling a button and the butterfly at the top is one of my own I made. I made a bow and added a pink mini paper rose at the center and attached it to the pullout.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAgYpIFWnxDMAkYNwrcUl1FQICmpEnyX2r1dNVLJx6njlZX9liP4UsYSdpOx_gxuClHm-P0v55C5cm2F6v9XQwrAUQ_e9NCNeDaj_mYlFbdGfQaeh3WhdKuOMoHQgskFYRDz4K5iqgUOw/s1600/IMG_0031.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAgYpIFWnxDMAkYNwrcUl1FQICmpEnyX2r1dNVLJx6njlZX9liP4UsYSdpOx_gxuClHm-P0v55C5cm2F6v9XQwrAUQ_e9NCNeDaj_mYlFbdGfQaeh3WhdKuOMoHQgskFYRDz4K5iqgUOw/s320/IMG_0031.JPG" /></a><br />

I used some pearl strands, charms, chipboard word, buttons, and pink layered flowers (but they really look peach here). I added Stickles to the top flower to give it a bit of a pop. The butterfly is one I made. A pink and white lace trim for the outer edge.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnDaJE0p0Rj1zdU9n44WUqs2nmrlMa0Dj5M6tRhbWPSVVfzXZ18LXO4idVgGxqOIHyPft0ThBQVGJ6Znpq_ZSLNcSX0a6dvtJ3BCi2nvobmXOLem9iFeUZo-gMSphxiiueNo_IegyXT0M/s1600/IMG_0034.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnDaJE0p0Rj1zdU9n44WUqs2nmrlMa0Dj5M6tRhbWPSVVfzXZ18LXO4idVgGxqOIHyPft0ThBQVGJ6Znpq_ZSLNcSX0a6dvtJ3BCi2nvobmXOLem9iFeUZo-gMSphxiiueNo_IegyXT0M/s320/IMG_0034.JPG" /></a><br />

Another butterfly I made, heart pearl buttons, a metal word on the pullout, some tiny paper roses, some premade flowers with brads inserted for centers and a different ruffly lace trim around the outer edge. Again added a bit of blue to this to help tie in Jason's shirt. I tried brown on some of the pages and I just couldn't get it to look right without overpowering the rest of the page so I stuck with the pinks and a touch of blue here and there. Still pretty girly girl.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY_cDYaB7xShpG9ACZTOQj7Q7jqm00K3m8gVUHBZ3tgnOlz1UR7k6HAEDdrxnrUzNUUen3lwAPKw3QdEZuW3_72vUmqfarfZjsTQfg_qv5MRqCCuEKzlDBjS5Us3ZJE5gRfm752igTvZ8/s1600/IMG_0035.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY_cDYaB7xShpG9ACZTOQj7Q7jqm00K3m8gVUHBZ3tgnOlz1UR7k6HAEDdrxnrUzNUUen3lwAPKw3QdEZuW3_72vUmqfarfZjsTQfg_qv5MRqCCuEKzlDBjS5Us3ZJE5gRfm752igTvZ8/s320/IMG_0035.JPG" /></a><br />

This is the back page. The album only comes with 3 pages and I wanted to make one more for all the pics I had so I cut two from medium weight chipboard and layered them together so they would match the thickness of the other pages. I trimmed the edge in a pink satin and lace trim, added a strand of pearls over the edge. I punched a doily out of plain white cardstock and inked the edges and cut it in half and put under the picture. I used a chipboard word, layered paper flowers, and a button.<br />
The back I just left a plain pink dotted swiss and edged it in white lace.<br />
All in all I think it turned out okay (other than the inking) and next time I will know better. <br />
Thanks for looking and please let me know what you think. <br />

This is a layout I did for a friend of mine's daughter. I love how it turned out.<br />
The child is again "Borrowed Family" and I made it so she can take this picture off and put her own on it. This just gives her an idea of how it would look.</div>

I did this piece for a girlfriend that was moving away. I did not put any title on it nor any journaling, I left that all up to her. She told me the colors that she wanted and the size of picture she intended to place on it. I used one of my "Borrowed Relative" pictures just so she could see what it would look like. This is a bit bigger than 5 x 7 pic and she wanted it to fit an 8 x 10 but I think even this wide mat looks good with this pic.<br />
She loved it so much she had me do one for her daughter. I will be posting that soon.<br />
Leave me some love!! TFL!</div>

So sorry, I had planned to return MUCH sooner than this. </span><br />
<br />
I can only say I have been super busy with work and work related things but I have also <br />
been really busy crafting away.<br />
<br />
I will be posting a new item later this evening, please leave me a comment and let me know <br />
what you think. <br />
<br />
I also have another one scheduled for Sunday night, I hope it goes out as planned. <br />
<br />
I'm not too sure I like the new "Blogger". It is taking me some time to get used to the new <br />
setup. I'm not real big on change and that is probably part of it. So please bear with me as I<br />
stumble through all of this. (You might wish me luck, too!! LOL!!)<br />
<br />
Also, thanks for hanging in there with me and waiting so patiently for new posts ;)<br />
<br />

Layout #2 I had a different idea altogether but when the muse comes out to play she seems to have different ideas. This was one of those times. Not sure it's one of my faves but I do like some of the elements.<br />
The pic is one of my "Borrowed Relatives" again. These kids look sssoo happy and are having such fun. I am thinking this wasn't the first pic and they were having a hard time sitting still. I'm glad the photographer got this one, so natural and unposed like most pics.<br />

Just wanted to drop back by my blog (So, so sorry I can't believe I have been away for so long!!!) I wanted to give you a couple of "new" things to look at and tell you I will have some new things to post in the next coming weeks, I have been super busy with a little thing called "LIFE"!!!! <br />
However, I am hoping things have settled back down again and I can get back to some playing. So check back in a few days, I am hoping to have a scrappy post or two soon. In the meantime please enjoy a few pics from my yard and garden.<br />
These are blossoms from my chokecherry trees. They are absolutely loaded with blossoms.....<br />

This one is a fave (kinda like my world the last couple of months....upside down!!!)<br />
I have been faced with a number of tragedies both in my personal life and my work life. I have lost a number of good friends recently and it has been a very trying time. I just don't understand, but I trust in the good Lord and that if the meaning is meant for me to understand it will be revealed to me in the right timing. In the meantime, thank you family and friends (you know who you are) for your thoughts and prayers during this time and while I move forward as well.</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtJchlBntW-eKAQ_KyXHBwotmZWFoRXdPc6fbFhNqisoPzFfFmNw2XCrbz_DG3EWjWUyMszbhilvi5XZh4gMM44oH0_NUCcEVj-2kc19FRh-q9VRxpKcjycMATGHyQmYKBEYTq-vcXmwo/s1600/IMG_0674.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtJchlBntW-eKAQ_KyXHBwotmZWFoRXdPc6fbFhNqisoPzFfFmNw2XCrbz_DG3EWjWUyMszbhilvi5XZh4gMM44oH0_NUCcEVj-2kc19FRh-q9VRxpKcjycMATGHyQmYKBEYTq-vcXmwo/s320/IMG_0674.JPG" /></a><br />

Okay, the end. I will be back hopefully by the end of the week with some scrappy goodness to post.<br />
Thanks for hanging in there and letting me have some down time. I pray things are back on the upside to our lives now. <br />
Maybe they are telling me to "hang in there", at least that's the message I am taking away from all of this. <br />

<br />
<strong><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-size: large;">Thank you for always being the very best mother you know how to be!!</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Now go and enjoy your day with your loved ones! But if you are like me and have to work on this special day just take a minute out of that busy day and think about yourself and give yourself a big pat on the back for raising those children for as long as you have, whether it be 8 hours or 18+ years!!! </span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">A very special thank you to my mom for being the best mom in the whole world and an awesome grandma! I know I sometimes don't tell you enough, but THANK YOU!! for everything you have given to us kids. I'm glad you are my mom and I'm especially thankful you are still here on earth with us. I doubt you will ever see this but the world will know you are special to us! </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">A very special thank you to my daughter for making me the most proud and happy mama ever! Also, I want to thank you for helping to raise me up as well and letting me learn things right along beside you. I told you long ago that kids don't come with instruction manuals and we had to figure out how to make our way through life step by step together. I'm so glad I got to walk side by side with you. Thanks for just being you, baby!! I LOVE YOU with all my heart, now and forever more!</span></strong><br />

<br />
<strong><span style="color: blue;">Sorry I've been absent from the blog lately. I've been extremely busy lately. I will have some things </span></strong><strong><span style="color: blue;">to show you in a couple of days that I have been working on. Then I will have another brief hiatus due to a couple of our nephews graduating from high school in the next couple of weeks, from one side of the state to the other. Then I </span></strong><strong><span style="color: blue;">should be able to get back to my form of "normal" around here! LOL!!! </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: blue;">I am hoping to have a couple of posts for you soon, though so please keep checking back or feel free to sign up for the email notices on the right side of this page at the top. </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: blue;">Thanks for being patient with me, see you soon!</span></strong><br />

These are the rest of the flowers I made for the Flower Basket Swap being held over at Lil Scrap of Heaven.<br />
I had to stop making flowers for a bit so I could get my basket put together and ready to mail or it might never get mailed. I had SSSOOO much fun making these!!!

These are some of the flowers I made for a flower swap I am in for April. Had a ton of fun making these, too!! I could make these all day long! <br />
The requirement for the swap was you had to swap at least 20 flowers and 5 of them had to be handmade, the rest could be store bought. I think this will qualify!</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Cb2C1ELoGis1bDsJLBU9nS-1AWRaZTf4dAeBYC6UOiWW0YkzHVKlQVzvLo_shzKw1hz3EfCp65udx6Ww4w_ieQwAHoMUuR98rBoy53eLsOQdekqFrYyvjgWfHDDg3Nk45heuqW9z1wk/s1600/IMG_0573.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Cb2C1ELoGis1bDsJLBU9nS-1AWRaZTf4dAeBYC6UOiWW0YkzHVKlQVzvLo_shzKw1hz3EfCp65udx6Ww4w_ieQwAHoMUuR98rBoy53eLsOQdekqFrYyvjgWfHDDg3Nk45heuqW9z1wk/s320/IMG_0573.JPG" /></a><br />
