"LOVE" CARD


Welcome!  Here's a sweet little card I made using the May Stamp of the Month, Live, Laugh, Love and paper from the Little Dreamer Creative Collection.  



Using a  White Card base from the Value Pack, I cut my papers to size and built my card layers first with the Cloud pattern from Little Dreamer, adhered with my tape runner.  Then I stamped my LOVE sentiment on White Daisy cardstock with black Archival ink and had fun coloring it in using Watercolor Pencils and my Clear Shimmer Brush.  

Using Foam Tape, I adhered my finished sentiment to Pacifica cardstock.  Then, again using Foam Tape, I adhered this pair to the center of the Cloud paper.  

Just add the appropriate note or sentiment to the inside, and you are ready to send a heart felt greeting to someone!   

May 2017: Live, Laugh, Love

Live Beautifully!  Smile Layout!



Welcome!  I'm so glad you are here!  I love the colors and design of this "Smile" layout made with the "Cut Above" Live Beautifully Scrapbooking Kit.  This kit layout is so pretty!

Each layout goes together quickly.  I made this 2-page layout, as directed, in about 15-20 minutes!  Woo Hoo! Faster! Simpler! Easier!  Whether you are a novice or experienced scrapbooker, you will love the ease of this and other Cut Above kits


Our title, Smile, is a beautiful script in Gold Foil, enhanced with the accompanying Gold Foil floral paper, and accented embellishments.  Our quote is printed on the paper in a wonderful arc just waiting to showcase your photo memories.  Simply stunning!   


I am a huge fan of seaglass!  This color is truly complementary with so many other patterns, colors and textures. With the addition of the Gold Foil accents and corresponding embellishments -- Wow!  Simply lovely! 

Both the stickers and die cuts are a substantial weight and so easy to use. You simply peel and stick the stickers, and "punch" the die cuts and adhere with your adhesive.  Go ahead and add a bit of foam tape to give some dimension as I did here.  


This layout is truly one of my favorites!  The most difficult aspect of this design, is which photos to add!  Decisions! Decisions!  

Since this is a Cut Above Kit, all of the papers and embellishments are included, as well as easy to follow pictorial instructions and 6 Top Load Page Protectors.  

This Live Beautifully Cut Above Kit is awesome and corresponds directly with our goal of getting our photos out of boxes and off of our devices and preserve them in albums for you and future generations to enjoy!  

You  can also purchase this kit as a bundle with a 20% discount! The bundle includes the 10-page Cut Above Live Beautifully layout kit as well as a Marvy® Uchida® LePen™ Journaling PenTombow Adhesive, and your choice of a Post Bound or 3-Ring Album. What an awesome gift for graduations, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, etc.  It is only available through May 31 or while supplies last.

Sparkle With Live Beautifully!


Welcome!  During National Scrapbooking Month, I'm excited to share with you layouts I made with the "Cut Above" Live Beautifully Scrapbooking Kit.  Each layout goes together quickly.  I made this 2-page layout, as directed, in about 15-20 minutes!  Woo Hoo! Faster! Simpler! Easier!  Whether you are a novice or experienced scrapbooker, you will love the ease of this and other Cut Above kits.  








I am a huge fan of seaglass, the Color of the Year!  I love the complementary combination of seaglass with the graphic black and white Art Deco pattern.  They work so well together.  With the addition of the Gold Foil accents and embellishments -- Wow!  They are so lovely! 

Both the stickers and die cuts are a substantial weight and so easy to use.  You simply peel and stick the stickers, and "punch" the die cuts and adhere with your adhesive.  


These layouts could easily help you showcase your special vacation, wedding, anniversary, family, and home life memories.  
You've taken the pictures, why not preserve them in an album for you and future generations to enjoy?  Unable to pare down your abundance of photos, no problem, just add some Flip Flaps or Pocket Pages.  I know I do!

The title, Sparkle, is made from a beautiful Gold Foil sticker.  It's ready for you to peel and adhere!  

All of the papers and embellishments are included, as well as easy to follow pictorial instructions and 6 Top Load Page Protectors.  


You  can also purchase this kit as a bundle with a 20% discount!

LIVE BEAUTIFULLY!


Welcome! I'm so glad you stopped by!  It's May!  It's National Scrapbooking Month!  Yay!

Along with the cards previously shown (and more to come!)  I thoroughly enjoyed making scrapbook pages and more using the limited edition "Live Beautifully" papers and stamps, and know you will as well! 



Today I'm excited to show you one of the five two-page layouts that make up the "Cut Above" Live Beautifully Scrapbooking Kit. Each layout goes together quickly.  I made each 2-page layout, as directed, in about 15-20 minutes!  Woo Hoo! Faster! Simpler! Easier!  Whether you are a novice or experienced scrapbooker, you will love the ease of this and other Cut Above kits.  







I particularly love the butterflies and the floral black and white paper.  They are so lovely! Both the stickers and die cuts are a substantial weight.  You simply peel and stick the stickers, and "punch" the die cuts and adhere with your adhesive.  



These layouts could easily help you showcase your special heritage, wedding, family, home life and travel memories.  If you're like me and have an abundance of photos, go ahead and add some Flip Flaps or Pocket Pages

The title, DREAM, is made from individual stickers, ready for you to peel and adhere!  


All of the papers and embellishments are included, as well as easy to follow pictorial instructions and 6 Top Load Page Protectors.  


You  can also purchase this kit as a bundle with a 20% discount! The bundle includes the 10-page Cut Above Live Beautifully layout kit as well as a Marvy® Uchida® LePen™ Journaling Pen, Tombow Adhesive, and your choice of a Post Bound or 3-Ring Album.
