one graduation down, two to go

  I can't believe my little cousin Travie is all grown up! We returned home yesterday from my cousin's graduation in Broken Bow. It was crazy seeing him walk across that stage.   Sorry I haven't posted lately, I'm going to blame that on him! I was working on graduation gifts/cards/orders.   I got my final two boxes done, and 24 more cards made. For this post, I'm just going to show the pictures of the cards.   I made the cards using the You Rock paper pack - I think it just screams graduation! And then I followed the instructions from the Originals and Wishes card confidence books. I also made two cards using the Game On paper pack , that I had left over from making boxes. The stamps I used are You Did It , Follow Your Dreams (retired), For Every Occassion , Dainty Thoughts  and the set from the You Rock WOTG Just Be You. Embellishments include buttons , stickers and Clear Sparkles .   Please let me know if you have any questions.   Happy...

A keepsake for graduates!

   I've got another idea for a graduation gift! I just finished it this morning, which is why I hadn't posted it yet.    It is another type of box. It is a My Creations Memory Keeper Box , from Close to My Heart. I have made two already that I am giving for graduation gifts, and then I've got two more to make.    I will try to run down the directions here, but it would probably be easier if you'd contact me and we could set up a workshop! I might actually offer it this summer at B Inspired! Let me know if you'd be interested in that. If you want to make one yourself, hop on over to my Web site and order yours today!   I have also made these for baby gifts; they've been a big hit! My CTMH upline made one as a tribute to her grandmother. They can be used for anything!    A couple of tips: you'll need lots of adhesive ... and actually, in this case, the more you use the better. The paper might bubble a bit, but I think that gives it charac...

Crossing things off the scrapbooking to-do list!

  Good morning to one and all! Or maybe just one ... depends on if anybody reads this! :)   Please let me know: do you like all the updates I've made to my blog design over the last few days? I found a couple of very cool Web sites that let me do all that for free! Yeah!   I don't have a project to share today, but maybe soon I'll have some photos to share. I am getting ready to spend most of the day down in my scrapbooking "cave" getting some serious work done. I have projects to work on for other people, I have some graduation gifts and cards of my own to work on (I'm going to try using the paper pack Game On - I have high hopes), and I have an "about me" scrapbook page to make for our Close to My Heart swap. I've decided to use the paper pack You Rock - it could possibly be one of my all-time favorite paper packs. I've also still got those 25 Bella cards to finish. And if by some miracle (speaking of which, don't forget about our ...
