Think Pink Luncheon

My Mom, Sister, Sister-In-Law and I went to a Luncheon that benefits a local charity that helps women battling breast cancer.  My Longaberger Consultant does this yearly.  The left page tells about all great Longaberger items we won as attendance prizes and the raffle my Mom won.  We all chose to go together to support my Sister-In-Law who's battle has continued.

I'm really loving Basicgreys Sugar Rush, especially it's font.  I also tried out a new sizzix loopy die, sprayed it with glimmer mist for more punch.  I hand cut the two hearts, misted them and added pop dots.

The second page has some prima gems, stickles and two Martha Stewart Punched items.  I love using 1/8 inch ribbon and floss for "stitching" on buttons.  Again, Loving the BG felt stitched flowers!

Love Card

This card is for a Wedding.  Today.  Nothing like waiting till the last minute to get it done.  I've been playing with my Gypsy and the love image is from the Stamped Cartridge.  I stretched it a bit so the size is a little more than 3".  Glimmer Chalks color the heart and the white layer is embossed with hearts.  Pop dots under love gives a little more diminsion.  I do love these little velvet flocked flowers!

Dominic's 1st Haircut

All the products are BG Sugar Rush with the exception of the Bazzill cardstock.  I chose to use grey for the bg as part of a daily challenge over at Scrapbook.com.  There are a wonderful group of ladies who participate in the Anything Goes Challenge.   Having belonged to this group has truly stretched my style to do things I would have never tried.  Thanks to these ladies!!!

Dominic's 1st haircut was such a big deal, I did a mini album but also wanted the event scrapped in my LOM books.

I did add a little bling as in stickles on the journaling spot.

Eye Surgery

I love the versatility of Basic Grey!  This layout was done using Stella Ruby.  The journaling reads:  The Story  Ian had to have surgery on his eye and he asked if Aunt Bev would come.  Of course I did & I took pictures to show what a trooper Ian is!

The little 7 Gypsies sticker  (Handle with care) are becoming one of my favorite little embellies!  The Tim Holtz Adage Tickets are another fast fav!

Title is done with my Gypsy/Cricut.  I just a lot of 1.3 inch letters using the font Don Juan.  Did them all in black and thought I would try to use them like Thicker letters - only I cut oodles of vowels!!!!

Too Big

This was one of those times that it pays to have the camera handy!  I had brought up some baby items that Dominic had outgrown.  However...when he saw them, he had to just try them out one more time.

The paper is Recollections, Thicker felt stickers, Tim Holtz ticket and tiny staples, 7 Gypsy's sticker and BG ribbon.

Scrap Jewelry

I had such fun making these alphabet necklaces with my neice.  The tiles are like scrabble game

pieces only I got mine at Michaels - in the wood section.   The Bail came from Michaels also only it wasn't exactly what I wanted, so I used my craft pliers and bent them the way I wanted. 

Diamond glaze covers the top for a glassy look and I added irock gems using the heat tool for the Jolee's Gems again, at Michaels.  The chain necklace was from the hardware store @ .88 a foot.  Six of the chain connectors were $1.49 also at the hardware store.
