Smooth Sailing

Hey everyone.. wow yet again I have neglected my blog lol. Unfortunately, I won't be back into the regular swing of blogging for some time still. I just happened to have some time to write today. I've been busy with miss 4 year old and miss 2 (almost 3 and it breaks my heart) year old.. and redoing my craft room.. again!



Adam just finished making my desk a few months ago and stuff was going good... (the room wasn't complete yet) until I found a deal on craigslist and HAD to have it. So I got a super deal on white cube storage (about $4 per cube). I asked Adam to redo my room/ his office .. even though just months ago he said "are you sure this is how you want it? Because once it's done.. its done! And I will not be re doing anything you decide later you don't like"... well I asked anyway and he decided that my new idea was much better. So needless to say the room is a mess and I can't get to anything pretty much. And for the next few weeks it's only gonna be worse lol.


So today I have a little card I made real quick. The sailboat and anchor are both from Life's A Beach and were cut with my expression 2. The circle and scalloped circle are both from Cricut Craft Room Basics and were also cut with the expression 2. I embossed the red circle with my Cuttlebug and the Swiss Dots folder. After I adhered all of the parts onto the circles I put the entire sailboat in the circle on a pop dot. I ran some red velvet ribbon around the card and over the velvet ribbon some burlap twine which goes around twice and has a cute little bow. I hand wrote the sentiment.

Hope you like my card!

Thanks for stoppin' by and have a great day!

Harmony's 1st beach trip layout

Harmony's first beach trip ... wow this was a long time ago.. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. I still remember everything about this trip :).

For this layout I followed a sketch... I used dcwv papers. The little starfish and sand dollar on the burlap are held on with terrifically tacky tape. Thickers for the title and an epoxy sticker I had in my stash.

Thanks for stoppin' by and have a great day!

Ice Cream card

I made this ice cream card using only scraps.. I cut the ice cream from the Once Upon a Princess cart and embossed the ice cream with divine swirls. I added burlap over the kraft cone and placed the ice cream on an action wobble. I used a punch for the paper the sentiment was stamped on and a stamp from recollections and some maroon ink. The glitter ribbon is glitter tape from American Crafts.
