Scraps to brighten your day..

Hello All,
I've been told that spring is on the way and my calender has confined that its here. But my tulips are still under the snow!  So since I am still trapped inside with the winter still going strong I thought I would spend some time making a few cards to have on hand. I love to use my scraps to make cards, mainly because I really hate to throw my pretty paper away.   So while I was playing with at bit of my scraps I created this sweet little card using the super cheerful Hello Spring Collection from Imaginisce. 

Products Used:  Imaginisce Hello Spring Collection Pattern Paper & Die Cut, Bazzill Cardstock, Maya RD Pin & Twine, Bo Bunny Doilie.

                              just a bit of natural twine adds to the springy feel of the card.

and there is nothing like foam dots to add dimension to your projects.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Getting Ready for School!

Its that time of year when every parent is happy and yet a bit sad that school is about to start and for us its a first! But Sydney is so excited to start the Early Fives program. Everyday She runs around the house with her backpack and every night she asks if tomorrow she can go to school. I only hope that she keeps feeling this way after she starts!

A bit about my layout, I only used scraps! Which worked great with the pretty sketch over at PageMaps. Here is the sketch:

And now my layout as you can see I added a few more layers

 And just a few details for fun!
