A childs year

My mom teaches sunday school class to the little kids so shes always working on new crafts, this time she was helping my daughter finish her mother day gift. They recycle the plastic containers that you get when you buy strawberries.

I use "Don Juan" for the letters and "A Childs Year" for the girl cut.

The blue paper is coordinations and the flower and orange dotted one is from K&Company is the valentine stack that has robots and dogs.

The letter are 2" and the other cut is 4"

Just a Penny away


This is the first layout I made using the "Create a Critter" cartridge. I don't have this cartridge yet but I went to "Crop night" at another store and they had just bought this cartridge. The piggy is 3". I cut it first 4" but the heads on this cart are wide so I cut it again 3" .
The money are stickers, I only pay .15c for this stickers. By going to this new store (well is new to me) I learn to incorporate the pink fuzzy yarn in the background of the pictures. This is also the first time I use coordinations paper. I'm in love with this paper now.
Who new I was ever going to use pink on my sons layouts?!

Mothers Day CARD

This is the first card I make. Of course my friend Rita did most of the job, but I learn many things I didn't know. I found this stamp on ebay for less than $4.00 INCLUDING SHIPPING!

"Gummy eats all the toys that haven't been picked up.


Apparently when I was little my mom made one of these. I don't remember it, but she said they'd sing a song. "Here comes Gunny. Yum, yum yummy!" He would eat up the toys that hadn't been picked up and he'd keep them for a while.





Gunny can be housed in your closet until you determine that he's ready to give the toys back







The instructions and more ideas are on her blog:

Made forMemories



My mom, my daughter and I visited "Made for Memories" in Sarasota,Fl. This is a very nice scrapbooking store, it has lots of paper and you run out of money fast with all the cute stuff they have.
It was to bad I just find out about this store, because the store will be closing down in March 20th 2010.

I took a few pictures of their projects, to show you some of the classes I would have love to take.
