I'll Always Be Proud Of You!


Happy Friday Krafters!

I am still participating in a few challenges on sb.com. So I am sharing one from the Lift the Person Before You Challenge. You can see the original here.

I was going through my “well loved” AKA need to be cleaned craftroom and came across this photo of my oldest when she turned three. To give you all a little history of why this layout is titled “I’ll Always Be Proud of You”, my baby girl was born with a Brachial Plexuses injury. This was a devastating time in DH’s and my life. However, it turned out to be one of the biggest blessing too! As a result of her injuries, she was in the Birth-to-Three program. This picture was taken at her completion (when she turned three). She has overcome so many obstacles and no matter what happens in her life, I will ALWAYS be proud of her!



I used the Imagine Blossom Cartridge for all of the pattern papers. The cupcakes were cut from the Birthday Bash Cartridge. I topped it with white puffy paint, but it changed to pink because the Imagine ink is water based. It turned out great though! I layered them on some solid paper so they would not be lost in the pattern. I heat embossed the title and used a Fiskars punch to replicate stitching (much easier than faux stitching). The Polaroid was cut from a DCWV Regent Street stack (saw someone do something similar in a magazine while waiting at the cash register). I added a few other touches and the layout was complete!

I hope you enjoyed today’s project! Have a great weekend, Krafthead~

Day 15- OCTC

Wow Krafters!

Day 15!! I remember when I considered not posting for the 25 day count down, but I am glad I am pressing on! Again, I thank each and everyone of you for sharing this experience with me ;-)

On to the project, I am sharing a layout. Layouts are great gifts to give loved ones. This allows them to reflect on the memories. Let me say this, I had a lot of fun on this layout. However, it seem very plain (not clean and simple) to me. It seems like it is missing something. Anywho, spread the love of memories this year, Krafthead~

10 Minutes or Less Birthday Card~

Hey Krafters!
This past weekend, I put myself on a challenge. My cousin turned one on Saturday and I did not make her a card! I literally had 15 minutes before I had to be out of the door. I remembered on the invitation, there was a cupcake. With only that design element in mind, this is what I came up with! I even had a couple minutes to spare ;-)
I used the Yummy Imagine cartridge for the pattern papers and the cupcake. In the banner I stamped her name in the circles using Studio G stamps from Michael’s dollar spot. If I had more time, I would have done something different. However, I think it turned out well….even with all of the business of the patterns. Thanks for stopping by, Krafthead~
