Ed's hidden talent.

This Ashwood was a good canvas for Eddie to try his hand at drawing and painting his first masterpiece. We knew he could draw as he is very artistic and we knew he could paint cars as that is what he does for a living but he has kept hidden his ability to paint with a little paint brush. I believe that he did a great job for his first attempt to paint a still life. Whatcha think?

Precious Prince

I used the Cricut to cut out the word 'Precious' and the crown.

H2O Baby

This layout was alot of fun to do for me and as you can see Ella was having a wonderful time being the object of my photography. I used the Cricut Graphically Speaking cartridge to cut out the faucet, H2O, bubbles and used the Storybook cartridge to cut out the tag on the top left. I am really liking my Cricut. Anyway I then inked the diecuts to give them some definition and added some stickles to the H2O title. After the layout was put together and glued in place I added the epoxy bubbles from Cloud 9 all over the layout to look as if water droplets were actually on the page.

Happiness is........

This layout is of my stepdaughter Brandy and my granddaughter Ella.

I used the Making Memories Love Notes paper collection, including the paper clip, stickers, metal charm and glass pebbles. I outlined the stickers with the Sakura Clear Stardust pen. I also used some felt fusion by Queen & Co., sweets by Making Memories, bling, ink and ribbon.

Almost Walking.....

Here is my little princess trying to walk. She has lived with us on and off all of her life so I have been able to catch alot of these special moments.

For this LO I added Pixie Dust Blingz to the letters and used the Sakura Pink Stardust pen to accent the journal stamp and outline the stickers. I love those pens :).

Whatcha Doin?

This layout is just a few of the many pictures that I have of my granddaughter, Ella, scoping things out. She loves to get into the cabinets and see what all she can find. :) I have been working on an album that I intend to give to her one day when she is grown. I think that she will appreciate seeing all the little tidbits of her life when she was a baby.
