together.


This summer marks 10 years of Leah and Howard.  We started dating in 1998!  When I saw the picture of the 2 of us it made me smile and I knew it had to be scrapped!  This LO was for last week's MOJOHOLDER and I had fun playing!

a few ideas.
-use something other than paper for your background.  I used a piece of decorative chipboard.  (IT had been in my possession for over a year!)
-no journalling.  sometimes you need to just let the pictures speak!
-Layer flower centers.  buttons on top of buttons, on top of buttons!!!
-go ribbon/fiber crazy!!!!

CPS-keep shining!


I am a CPS newbie!  I love the site, just have never made cards from the sketches!  that is a-changing!!!  I was  VERY inspired by Sketch #75!!!  LOVE it.  I used the Two Spotted Dogs August Wild and Crazy kit to make my little 4x4 "keep shining" cards!

Just a note.


I love the current sketch at 2 sketches 4 you.  (love all of them!!!) They are easy to use and even the "sketch" is beautiful!!!  For Laura's Sketch #5,  I created this "just a note" card set.  

ideas.
-just change the alpha color and ribbon color to make the SAME card look different.  (sorta like a new lipstick and shoes!)
-3x5 cards.  GREAT fun size!  try it.  you might like it!
