Decked out Halloween Gnome



 And just for fun, I thought I would post our Decked out Halloween Gnomes.  This was such a fun project.  We bought $3 gnomes at the Dollar Tree and then bought all kinds of baubles and things to put on their hats.  Michelle and I had so much fun!  What a cute little guy to sit on my shelf for the holiday.  Dollar Tree for the win!

Pop Twist Thank You Card



 So while I was at it, I had a friend I needed to send a thank you too for extending our scrapbook retreat stay at her cabin.  I decided to modify the inside of the pop twist card to be a thanks shape instead of the 4 squares.  I like how it turned out.  Another one off to it's recipient.  Hope she enjoys it.  The unedited original file came from Lori Whitlock if you are looking for an svg version.  

Pop Twist Love You Card



 So while I was making my son a Get Well Card, I decided to make a couple more pop twist cards for some people I know.  This one was an I love you card for a friend going through a hard time.  I love the flower on the front.  Such dimension.  We have a saying in our scrapbooking group that a person needs to be "card worthy" to receive a handmade card.  So many people don't appreciate the time and effort that goes into make one of these.  I hope she enjoys it as she is card worthy!  I modified a Lori Whitlock file.  

Pop and Twist Jeep Get Well Card




So my son hasn't been feeling well so I wanted to send him a fun card.  Masculine cards are hard for me, but he likes jeeps and so this is what I came up with.  I actually hope he is feeling better BEFORE he gets this card, but if not, then I hope it at least makes him smile and remember how much he is loved!  The popup mechanism came from a Lori Whitlock file and I just modified it for my needs.  I hope he enjoys it!

Santa, I Believe Layout


 I am a recent 12x12 scrapper and this is a layout that I made.  Still getting used to the bigger size, but I love having more room.  


Love 12x12 Heart Layout


 I saw something similar to this online and just loved it so I made my own file and here is the page.  I don't have a photo of me and my hubby to put on it yet, but just love how this layout turned out.  This 12x12 stuff is fun!
