Valentine's Day Tree

Valentine's is my favorite holiday.  I love all the reds, pinks and all the yummy treats!  Plus it's my anniversary Date.  Yes, yes i was corny and got married on this day, but not with a big crowd of strangers.  I actually had a private ceremony.  Anyhow, I wanted to make Valentine tree so i bought some plain glass ornaments and put tincle in them and then I cut out some heard and a couple of phrases.  This is what I cam out with. 





























Okay, wow!  that was a lot of pics.  thank for hanging in there with me.  I really hope you enjoy this.  Until next time. 

HUGS,

Kick and Bleus Designs Digi Stamp

Wow, this is like really late,but I ran into a couple of bumps in the road and had to put this in the back burner.  I was given this digi stamp by Scrapbookaholic Abby and asked if I could make something with it, so here is my take on this oh so sweet digi.  This one will be going out to my Bestie in San Antonio.  I really enjoyed working on this one.  I am also very pleased on how it turned out.  I hope you enjoy it.  If you would like to purchase or take a look at the rest of the collection click on the following link.

KinderStampO's 34 Birthday Candles and Counting Blog Hop

Hi everyone and Welcome to KinderStampO's 34 Birthday Candles and Counting Blog Hop. Today we have over 40 designers sharing at least 40 fun birthday inspired projects too. If you arrive from (  Martha C. http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdreamofcrafting.blogspot.com%2F&h=78bfa7Nye3ghD1rlKxwPbzetLyw) then you are in the right place.

So this was such a great hop to work on, I decided to go back into my photo stash and scrapbook some of my daughter's past birthdays.  I created three different layout and one birthday card.  I also decide to create a special gift for the Birthday Diva.  I think I read somewhere that she really likes Butterflies so I made her a small sketch book she could carry around in her purse. 


























Jess, I hope you have a wonderful Birthday and that all your wishes come true.  I will be sending this out to this weekend.  Enjoy!!!  Thank you to all of you for stopping by.  The next stop is ( Nicolette Simpson   http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fbeyondscrapin.blogspot.com%2F&h=78bfaRNDwjEzaGLzaqCgRoFV1kQ )

HUGS,

Crafting with Cristina Challenge #14 Resolution & Memories

Good morning everyone, hope you had a wonderful weekend.  It's is super cold out today!! Well I decided to do this challenge because I really enjoy the theme.  I had too much fun making this layout.  I used an older line of My Minds Eyes, which I love, don't know the exact name but I really wish I had more.  So here it is, hope you all enjoy it. 

I really enjoyed using all this yummy Prima flowers.  They are the best!!, that and I so love this Teal color.  I also used some of this fun netting fiber that I purchased at an awesome scrapbook, out in Austin, TX


For my title I used some letter brads that I had in my stash for a while now.  I cut off the backing and used glue dots to adhere to the page.  Then I just lightly painted them with some paint.


Here I used one of those sweet Heart shaped dollies
and some handmade flowers I made and some random buttons.

Here I had some sequence objects and I opened the packaged and they spilled onto my page, I really like the way it looked so I decided to keep it.  It worked well.  (I think)


Here is another close up of this wonderful handmade flowers using the new McGill punches.

Well, that's all for today.  I really hope you all enjoyed this layout.  I know I did.  Thank you for stopping by and have a Marvelous Monday!

HUGS,
Martha

Flaunt It Friday Challenge #6- Hello Kitty Cut

Good evening everyone, I'm back, so this personal challenge I sent for myself is turning out to be harder than I thought.  Posting everyday, just is not possible, with school and work and then home, so I will change it to posting at least three times every week.  Lets see how this works.  Okay so I am entering the Flaunt It Friday's Challenge once again.  This week it is to use the HelloKitty Greeting Cart and use the airplane cut.  So Here is my take on this cut.  I did have some problems with this cut, could not get the cuts to match up, it was indeed a "Challenge".  But I am really happy on the finished product.  Hope you all enjoy it.







Well I hope you enjoyed this.  I sure did, have a great start to a New week.

HUGS,
Martha
