Friends Card

     To create this pretty card I started with a sketch from Susan Stringfellow and used papers from My Minds Eye. I used the Kreaxion's circle cutter for the doily and the Kreaxion's punch # 301 without any inserts and stencil B. I also used the Kreaxion's Butterfly punch. The ribbon is from Celebrate It and the stamp is from Glitz.

Peek A Boo

    It is my day up on the Just Imagine/Kreaxions Blog.  To create this beautiful layout I used a mix of papers, Imaginsce, My Mind's Eye and Echo Park. I used Kreaxion's Punch #301 with C insert for the corners and Punch # 310 without an insert for the borders. The flowers are Recollection and the ribbon is from Celebrate It. I used my Cricut to cut the title and the Kreaxion's Circle cutter to cut the circle .

Just Imagine/Kreaxions Blog Hop

Welcome to the Just Imagine/Kreaxions Blog Hop. So Happy you stopped by. We are sharing 3 days of all things Spring.

See our unique "4 in 1 punches" and our amazing Circle cutter that will cut up to a 10" circle on the smallest of surfaces.




For my project I decided to do this Photo Frame. I started with a plain wooden picture frame, which I coated with gesso and then painted with a bright yellow paint. Then I cut white cardstock to fit the frame, and used the Kreaxions punch # 309 with insert A to punch around the inside of the frame. I then glued that cardstock to the frame. Next I used Basic Grey's Nook and Pantry paper and punch #309 without an insert and punched a border, then using just the negative part of the border I glued that to the frame to edge it. Then I added a few flowers and some ribbon to finish of this beautiful frame.

Cute little Gift Box.

Today for the Just Imagine/Kreaxions blog I have created a cute little gift box.

here is a close up view.

In this view you can see how magnificient these punches really are.  I used Kreaxions Punch 910 to create this little box and it is so intricate.The top part is the punched part, the bottom is the negative part and the center is the little punched out pieces.   You can't help but love the versatility of these punches.

Almost There!

     Yes, I am almost at 50 layouts for the month of March, just two more to go but I don't think I will make it.  I have completed 6 so far today.  Two of those are a double pager.

     Let's start with that one.  I used Basic Grey's Serenade paper.  My Kreaxion's Circle cutter came in handy while creating these layouts and I used a Fiskar's edge punch as well. The cardstock stickers are from Karen Foster while I used my Cricut Expression and the Sure Cuts a Lot program to cut the Title with the Brush Script font.

To create Sweet Pea. I used paper from Pebbles, flowers from the Dollarama, Butterflies from K&Company and the bling is from KaiserCraft.

He's all boy and no mistake about it. I used Cosmos Cricket Joy Ride papers, chipboard from Little Yellow Bicycle and I created the faux stitching with my Pitt Artist black pen.

Nothing like starting young to play Basket Ball. I started with papers from Imaginisce, I used die cuts from the same line. The Alphas are from Bella Blvd and I used my Pitt Artist black pen for the faux stitching.

Paper came from the Paper Loft's Every Day Life. The die cuts are from Imaginisce, the button's are from the Dollar Store and the ribbon is unknown.

Scrap Scrap Scrap!!

     Yes, that is what I do.  There is nothing more relaxing and fun then taking a photo and then placing it on a page to display it in a beautiful way.  I really love what I do and to be able to do that for someone who really likes what you are doing for them is so very gratifying.

   For this first one I used paper from Studio75's Sweet Home collection. I took a TCW stencil and sprayed the background with Lindy's Starburst Bachelor Button Blue mist, I also used the same mist on Jelli Bean Soup's alphas. I used punches from both Martha Stewart and Recollections for my edges.  Flowers from Petaloo, Prima and some unknown were added to the page. I stuck a bit of bling from Basic Grey on the center of the large flower. A rub-on from Pink Paisley seemed to be just the thing for the bottom right corner of the photo. A bit of unknown ribbon tucked behind the photo and some faux stitching with a black Pitt Artist Pen was all that was needed to complete this beautiful layout.

This next layout was such a fun one to do. I rarely do layouts with multiple photos but I had all these photos of Skylar playing on the playground and I didn't want to pick just one or two. So a multiple layout was in order.  I choose KaiserCraft's Seaside collection for this one.  Mainly because I only had a little bit of it left over and because this layout only needed a little bit. Both the Baker's Twine and Clothespin are Recollections. The 3D stickers are from My Mind's Eye and I used a white Jelly Roll pen to write around the border and to do the faux stitching.

This little boy is so darned adorable and such a sweet topic to scrap.  I used papers from Little Yellow Bicycle's Fern Forest for this adorable page.  Once again I used a TCW stencil (I love their stencils) and this time I used Liquitex's Coarse texture gel on the background for added texture. I sprayed the stars with Goosebump's shimmer texture spray and adhered them with Pop Dots. The fibers are unknown. The sticker is from Karen Foster and I cut the title with my Cricut and the Stone cartridge.

I love this photo of Skylar with this grandfather. Bob looks so happy to be down on the floor with him. I wanted to make sure that photo was the focal point of the layout.  I used papers from Imaginisce for this layout. The cardstock stickers are from the same line. I used two different punches, one from Ek Success and Kreaxions Punch #919.  The doily is from the Dollaram and the fiber is unknown.

Yes, I finally found a couple of photos of Brayden in the mix of photos that she brought me, and delight of delights, it was his baby picture!!! :)  Everything on this layout is from Crate's Little Boy Blue collection.

Family

I am up on the Just Imagine/Kreaxions blog again today and I am showcasing Punch 309 today. For this gorgeous Family layout I have used the super duper Circle cutter to cut a circle and then used the A stencil and Punch 309 without an insert to create the beautiful doily.  I used the same punch and once again without an insert to create the border, I used the negative part to give it a layered look. I used the punch once again with insert B to punch the corners of my rectangle pieces.  So much can be done with these very versatile punches, so many different looks from one punch.
