Arboscello Tree

I finally got to play with the Memory Box Arboscello Tree. I've been waiting for it for a while, they sell out so quickly it's been hard to get my hands on one. And then I have to actually find time to make something with it. This is the first card that I made with this die, and I like it so much, as well as the paper, that I made 6 of the card, because you can never have too many sympathy cards within reach.

Fab 5

McRice has new medleys out an we are loving them!

Here's what I came up with from their Fall Medley.




I used a flower picture that they  had on their medley and cut out flowers for my card from them to give my flowers a funky design.

Here's everything that I used:


McRice Fall Medley
Spellbinders Fancy Tag Trio
Martha Stewart Branch Punch
Cheery Lynn Sweet Williams D 137 dies
Basic Gray Hello Lucious paper
Anna Griffin corner Punch

I got my creative juices flowing and made more cards with the Fall Medley too!

Friday, June 22, 2012

Mark your calendars for next Monday 25th....it will be time for another Fab 5. This one will feature the new Medleys by McRice. And you can join in on the fun. Check out the Picture This Facebook page for details. Then tune in Monday for a good dose of inspiration.

Best Wishes

This card was made with the new Cheery Lynn die Wedding Vows FRM 138.
Then I added a Lg Scalloped Oval and a Lg Standard Oval in white outlined in Memento Rose pink ink and stamped a sentiment on the inside oval.
The flowers were cut out using EK Success's Daisy flower punch.
I added some Stickles to add sparkle to the flowers.

Jamaica

Here are a few photos I'd like to share with you from my time in Jamaica









We went snorkeling and parasailing, saw a ton of awesome sunsets and got to watch the locals jump off of cliffs, we gazed at the lighthouse of Negril and then climbed its stairs to the top. It was a lot of fun

For My Kitchen


I had a lot of fun making this page. First of all, it's Graphic 45. Second of all, I got to use the TH/Sizzix Rosette die. Third of all, I hardly make pages although this month it seems like that's most of what I've been creating. And forth of all, it's going to be for my kitchen. As soon as I find the perfect picture to go in it, it's going up. I wanted to make a collage or something because I love this line of paper by G45 and it looks so kitchen-y. So I can't wait until I find a picture so I can hang it up!



Supplies:
Tim Holtz/Sizzix Mini Rosettes die
Graphic 45 Botanicabella Collection Garden Suite
Graphic 45 Botanicabella Collecion Botanicabella Tags
Graphic 45 Botanicabella Collection Secret Garden
Reminisce Autumn Forest Collection Textured Pear

Jamaica

I am scheduling this post to go up because I will be leaving by the time it posts. Heading to Jamaica this morning from the cities.

I'll schedule some posts to go up while I'm gone and then have some pictures when I get back.

Have a great week Wisconsin! I'll be getting some sun!
