New Addition

I am so excited to announce that my brother Jason, and his girlfriend, Shannon are having a baby!! I have known for about a week, and I was not allowed to say anything, until they told my parents. This little bundle of joy, is going to make me an "Aunt" for the first time and I am very excited. Of course I have already started think about the shower and the invites, the scrapbook that I want to make for their baby!! Endless possibilities.....

So this is a picture of the happy couple, Shannon is already 3 months pregnant and the card that I made for them.

Supplies:

Colours: Blush and Heavenly Blue

Papers: Sugar & Spice

Stamps: Little Angel

Accessories: Colonial White Ribbon Collection

Celebrating Late

This is the card I made for my Dad, for Father's Day! I can honestly say, that I could not figure out this shirt folding technique if I tried. I had several failed attempts, and put this idea aside, until I watched Nona's (her blog is list on the side bar) video tutorial!! She did a great job, thanks Nona.

The question is, why is my card so late? Well, my parents have been gone on a adventure for the past month! They left Wyoming Ontario, and ventured to the USA on their motorcycle! They headed out west and made it has far as the Rockie Mountains! Which they say are absoutely beautiful, but they will never go through them on a motorcycle again!! So they returned on Thursday from an amazing vacation, therfore, we are celebrating Father's Day today!

Take care.

Just a Quiz

So here is a fun little quiz that Jena had done on her blog, so I thought I would check it out! I thought it was cute, and that you all would enjoy seeing what scrapbooking item you are! I am Fibers by the way! Don't forget to leave a comment, I want to know what you all are!!

Just another card

With the weather being so nice, and the girls wanting to play outside, I have been slacking on my papercrafting. This is a card that I cased from Kathi (her blog address is in my favourites), she is so talented, and I just had to copy!

Sometimes I have so many ideas floating around in my head, and they are quite complex. So when I see a card like this, I think how nice. Simple, yet beautiful. I loved Kathi's colour combo, so I used that too! I actually used my markers to colour in the flowers. I say that, because I really do not used my markers as often as I would like.

Supplies:

Colours: Heavenly Blue, Holiday Red, Black, White Daisy

Stamp Sets: June Word Puzzle, Say It In Style

Accessoriess: Ribbon is from CTMH, Black Collection

Twelve Little Princesses

This is the layout that I completed from Hannah's 5th Birthday Party! I am not sure that there are any little girls at this age that are not in love with the Disney Princesses, or do not have a princess party of there own.

All the little girls were so well behaved, and they all had a great time!

Colours: Breeze, Watermelon, Orchid

Paper: Whoops A Daisy
