Beautiful Tatym

Took this photo last fall at my sister's when we were out visiting. We had Tatym for a play date. It was a fun day. She let me curl her hair and it really looked pretty. She is such a little beauty and I was really happy with this photo. Used Prima pp, Unknown cardstock, Heidi Swapp and Crafter's Workshop stencils. Dies are sizzix, cherry lynn and spellbinders. Embossing folders are Crafts Too and Cuttlebug. MS and EK punches. TH and HS stamps. Prima sugar dots. Lace and twine unknown. Home made texture paste. Gesso. Stazon ink.

Quilling

Tried quilling recently. Added some die cuts. Cheery Lyn and Memory Box. Was fun but I enjoy scrapbooking more. Will likely make some flowers for pages. Looked at some really incredible art on the internet while learning this.

Cautious

This is a photo of Olivia and I on the slides at the park in May of this year. We are both so cautious natured and it shows in this photo. It was a really fun day with her. I used DCWV Collage paper pack for the pp's. Used some old flowers from my stash. Trying to use up some of that lol.. One of them is prima, one is dollar store felt and the other is unknown. I replaced the bling on them with prima sugar dots. Used Cheery Lynn flourish and butterfly and gate dies. Love those dies. The paper doesn't stick in them!! You can buy them on line from the manufacturer. Also used MS and EK punches. Fabric store lace. Unknown bling. Heidi Swapp photo folder used as the photo matting. Friskars stamps. The sentiment on the top looks crooked but it is straight on the page lol.  I cut it out of the pp. I just used a cell phone photo of this page. I may replace it when I get out my good camera but I just did 11 pages last week and decided not to do that again. It took me all afternoon! If you visit please leave a note. I often wonder if anyone looks at my site.... Really wasn't sure about the green flower but decided to go with it....

The large numbers are a Brenda Walton for Sizzix die. Dusty Attic butterfly. TH die cut for the tag. Cottage cuts doily die. Fabric store lace. Sizzix die for the leaves. Zva pearl flourish I think. Stitching is a stamp. Did quite a bit of inking. MS punch.Words stamp is a clearstamp I think. Just one of those tiny packages.  I took these photos early this year when we were out visiting.
