Flourish love!

I love flourishes!  They have a way of giving your layout movement.  I love the way they give a layout a romantic feel, like your floating on air! I want to share a few layouts with you that I created using some of my favorite paper collections and some Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful flourishes.  The first 2 projects are made with some new K and Company. 






And of course some Bo Bunny for you, along with Cheery Lynn's Tropical Flourish




I wish  I had more of Cheery Lynn Designs dies...they have some of the prettiest dies and they add so much to a layout!  I just purchased these before I moved and have recently had a chance to actually play with them.  I'll be getting my  hands on more of these dies!

Thanks for visiting my blog!!

I'm Back!

I'm so glad to have the move done...we still have alot to unpack but it's all moved in!  As soon as I get a little more settled I'll post some photos.  My scraproom is in disarray as you can imagine.  I'm having some issues getting shelving installed, but that will be soon.

I have a couple of projects to share with you today, I made these for the Bo Bunny Blog before I moved. 
The first project is a tag, which I don't make alot of but will make more because I have so many scraps!!

This next project is a layout I did for the stamping challenge on the Bo Bunny blog today.  Be sure to check out the blog for some great stamping techniques!



I stamped the snowflakes on acetate with Opaque Stazon and then cut them out and adhered them with ThermOWeb Zots.

Thanks for visiting my blog and be sure to check back for some more fun projects I have to share!!

Tomorrow is the big day!

This will be my last post for about 10 days as I will be finally moving into my new house.  We are taking off next week to get moved and to get our new house settled.  It's been a long haul but we are finally there. 

I have a fun layout to share with you today.  I used Bo bunny's beautiful new Ambrosia Collection to create this layout.  Our challenge was to use flowers and flourishes and if you stop by the Bo Bunny blog you will be further inspired by Gabi and Robbie...you won't be disappointed!



This collection is so beautiful...you will want to get your hands on this!! 

Thanks for stopping by my blog and I'll talk to you in about 10 days!!

2 weeks to go!!

I'm getting so excited to move!  Today I was in my new home getting the windows measured for window treatments...IT WAS FUN!!  I also got to see some of my lighting fixtures going in and got a good look at the new hardwoods and backsplash.  We should be doing our final walk through soon.  Our deck is going up today and sounds like it will be finished up by the end of the day tomorrow.:)

Here's what it's looking like now.
Kitchen

Great Room
Master Bath/shower

This was last week, the faucets are now in, i wanted you to see my granite composite sink.  I have one in the home I have now and I love this sink!  I had to have one in the new house too.


Master Bath and Fireplace
We are almost there!!  I just can't wait.  I'll try to get some photos of my scraproom next week after all of the flooring and baseboards are in downstairs. 

I'm going to switch gears on you now and share a funny layout I did with Bo Bunny's Sweet Tooth collection.  The minute I saw this photo I knew that Sweet Tooth would be perfect for it.



Hope your week is going great!  Talk to you soon!

Finally a post!

I'll bet you are wondering what has happended to my blogging?  I'm SO BUSY I can't stand it! It seems like everything needs to be done NOW!!  On top of moving I have been so busy at work that I can't see straight!  I see a little light now!  Thank goodness!  I'm stillpacking it up.  Hoping to finish any scrapbooking this weekend that needs to be done and it's been helping me unwind. I actually have a couple of projects to share with you today.  The first project is for Sketchabilites!  Really love Karan's sketches they are beautiful and your projects always turn out lovely!!

Be sure to head over to the Sketchablilites blog to play along with this challenge!

Next up is a card I made from this sketch. I also created the sketch.


I used Bo Bunny's Enchanted Collection for this card and used an aqua pen with a chalk ink for the pops of red. 
Be sure to head over to the Bo Bunny Blog to play along with this challenge!!
One more layout to share..this one was also created with Bo Bunny's Enchanted collection!  Love, Love, Love this collection!!!

So I have a few photos of my new house to share...it's coming along and we are 3 weeks out from moving day!!  Yay!!
We chose to stain all the wood throughout the house and I really love it! 

The plumbing is going in today and all the counter tops are in.  I have brushed bronze fixtures going in throughout the house and I have this gorgeous granite composite sink in my kitchen.   the shower and master bath are amazing!!  I love all my big walk in closets too!!

This is the deck/shed combination that my husband designed.  It's one of the last items to be finished up on the outside besides the sprinkler system and sod.

The carpeting and wood flooring go in next week and I should have more photos!  We are almost tothe end now and just can't wait until it's over!!

Hope you're having a great week!!
Thanks for stopping by!

30 Days and Counting!

We are 30 days from our big move and I'm getting extremely anxious!!  Our house is almost complete, the work on the inside is coming along quickly!  Last night Iwas able to check out all the tile work and I'm so happy with it!  There's not much left to do.  So while I'm busy packing up my house, last weekend I was packing up a little more in my scraproom and came across some KandCo. that has been in my stash.  So the packing stopped and I had to do a layout!  I couldn't help myself!!  Here's my finished project!


Sorry about the photo, we have had alot of wind and just enough snow to make it miserable to get out and take photos.  Anyway this one isn't my best photo.  Lately I find myself in  a Turquoise sort of mood!!  It's one of my favorite colors and I've been finding myself gravititing towards it.  Fair warning!

So CHA is this upcoming week and I will not be going.  My first experience started out great but in the end it was not worth 7 days of my hard earned vacation time and money.  The problem was that I had a room mate that made things very miserable for not only me, but a few others as well.  I'm not one to invest time in self serving people and basically the consideration for the rest of us went down the drain.  Will I ever go back?  Probably but I will have my own room or a room mate that is more considerate.  We'll see, she kind of ruined the whole trip for a few of us.  Don't get me wrong, I did have some great times too and met alot of great people.  I enjoyed all the inspiring projects and booths. 

Anyway, hope everyone that is going has a safe trip and lots of fun!!
