5th grade promotion covid style


 I scrapped a picture from my younger daughter's 5th grade graduation that happened during covid. It was outside, masked and away from everyone. I did the March 2023 scrap challenge from Scrap Our Stash. I included some hand drawn stars and I really enjoyed how they turned out. Trying to just keep being creative.

Kitty scrapbook page


 Yay another page! I'm on a roll this year ya'll! I did this for the LM #640 challenge to include an animal and one of the design teams pages really inspired me and I totally scrap lifted it, but changed it for my pictures and supplies.  I'm super happy with how this page turned out. I still want to add some journaling. I think the bottom right corner will do. Thanks for looking!

Sneak Peek

I'm a little crazy and excited about posting over on EyeConnect's blog today! So go check it out. I'm also a little silly because I'm posting about Mother's Day and it is only March and not May (but I generally start thinking about things early and planning because I'm one of those people). Though I feel like more and more, no one reads my blog and so really I'm just writing this like notes to myself because I won't remember in a year or two or three...or however long it takes. So if I post somewhat regularly at least I will have some documentation that I can remember and I have the scrapbook pages I have made. I should journal more too. Note to self: Journal more.

Well here is a little peek at what I posted over on EyeConnect's blog:

Something New!!!

At the beginning of February I found out that I was going to be joining a new Design Team for EyeConnect Crafts! I'm so excited for this new opportunity! Click on the company's name to go check out their website. 

Sunday night we came home from our weekend getaway and I found a box of goodies on my doorstep! One of the first items I wanted to play with was this birdcage.
I popped it out of its home and decided  to paint it. Painting is an awesome way to cover these cute little pieces of  chipboard like material. They soak up the paint so quickly that it dries super quick. I did two coats of paints in a few minutes.

Next up, I laced it up by doubling up white embroidery floss. My embroidery floss was a little wonky from being stored, so I added a little bit of white glue to it, which  helped some of the kinks to come out and for it to adhere to itself and be a bit more stiff.

I decided to ink up the birdcage on the edges to match the paper and then I added some liquid pearls to the top and bottom. I propped the cage up with foam tape and added some flowers and pearl centers. I decided it needed a little bird and so I freehand drew one and cut it out. I love the dimension the birdcage adds to my card!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
