Love U

Yes, I know that Valentine's Day is over, but this is  the scrapbook page my stamp club made this week.  I started out CASING this page from Denise Cox on Stampin' Connection, a website for SU demos only.  I changed a few things to make it my own, but the overall feel came from Denise. 





Don't forget about Sale-a-bration!

Valentine Projects

Well, Valentine's Day is here and while I am not a big fan because I feel it is too forced, I do have someone special in my life for whom I made the below card.  I found it on Stampin' Connection and CASEd it from Tamara Bertram who CASEd it from Mindy Backes.  I added my own changes to it, which included adding a lot of texture.  I love Stampin' Ups! embossing folders!

stamps: PS I Love You
card stock: whisper white, early espresso, real red
tools: Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, hearts framelit die, houndstooth embossing folder
Below are a couple of projects that I made using inexpensive frames, card stock and retired designer paper.




Don't forget it is Sale-a-bration time!!

Love

                          In case you haven't noticed I haven't posted since October.  That is
 because my life has been absolutely crazy since August.   It's a tragic story but there is a happy ending.  God has taken care of me every step of the way.  He has blessed me in ways I could never imagine.

I am back to crafting again and have several projects to share with you in the next few days.  Normally,  am not a big Valentine's Day fan but this year I have decided to not be a valentines scrooge.
My first project was inspired by a project on Oopseydaisyblog.
Isn't it cute?  It is made out of a 2x4 board cut into 6 and 5 inch lengths.



I painted the blocks red with spray paint, cut out my letters, tore my paper to fit and modgepodged everything on. Easy peasy!
The background paper I used is called First Edition and looks like pages from a vintage book.  I love it!
Don't forget it is Sale-A-Bration time.  Time to earn free products!!
