Scrapbook Pages

Here are a few scrapbook pages. Some pages have only one photo while others have more. We have also included some scrapbook pages prepared for recipe swaps (where you make one or more of the same pages and then swap with others to make a book ~ this is lots of fun!). The page layouts are determined by your individual likes and needs. We love doing scrapbook layouts for you or we are happy to have a class to help you figure out the layouts yourself. Let us show you the many possibilities and just how fast and easy it can be.

Sympathy

The loss of a loved one is very difficult at best. Show your thoughts to the family with some of our sympathy cards. All are hand stamped, colored, have die cuts, etc. All cards are blank inside so you can write your own personal thoughts. We do have sentiments available.





Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving ... I don't know of anyone who doesn't love Thanksgiving. Remembering those we love with cards is great! Say thanks to your hostess this Thanksgiving Day with a beautiful card!
A season of gratitude, on colored cardstock with multiple layered circles and silk leaves and matching brad.
Cornucopia, hand colored and cut out then placed on cardstock for dimensional look ... paper lace leaf pattern on side.
Fruits of the season, hand colored, cut and placed dimensionally onto cardstock with crystals that match.
This card opens to reveal four tags inside where y0u can put photos, personal notes, etc. See next photo.
The card opened up showing the tags inside.
Tags removed from their pockets in the card. Each tag has been hand chalked and stamped. The back of the tag is plain for you to do as you please with. Great for families to each write a personal message on a tag. Can also be made for other holidays.

This is on white cardstock, hand colored and has a metal leaf on the front.

Halloween!

Halloween is just around the corner and we have been busy making some cute Halloween cards. We call this one Witch Shoes ... I like them!
Boo!
Opps!
Someone didn't look out for the falling house! A fun Halloween card!

Sisters ...

This card says ... A sister is a little bit of our childhood that can never be lost. Isn't that the truth? We have also made this card using different color combinations as shown below:


This is a green and pink pattern paper with a pink band.


This is fushia set at an angle on green cardstock ...


This is fushia cardstock with a green band, but not angled.

Again, lots of possibilities.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to you ...

This card was created using cardstock, stickles for sparkle, inks and chalks. We used the Cool Cat stamps from Stampin' Up! for the cat on the card and the presents. This card is dimensional meaning that the presents are not flat on the card and the Happy Birthday scalloped circle is not flat. There are Pop Dots under them to make them stand up and give the card more life. This card can be made using a variety of colors for the card and ribbon, presents, etc. It can be a birthday card or made to be a card to be given with any gift of any kind. The presents don't have to be used at all if you don't want them. There are many possibilities for this card.

Happy Birthday card with lattice work on the sides. Any color can be used behind the lattice work.

Birthdays are good for you! Statistics show that the more you have the longer you live! This is a dimensional card that is fun!
