I {heart} scrapbooking!  And I love having the scrapbook club back in action cuz it helps me get more pages ready to go!  So here’s some ‘before’ shots of the pages for this month.  And hopefully VERY soon I’ll get some ‘after’ shots with pictures on them!

I used the new Night & Day Specialty Designer [...]

It was my son’s birthday party today!  It was a lot of fun, perfect weather, great family, friends, and food!  I wanted to share with you what I did with his cupcakes.  First off I made a crazy amount of different kinds, vanilla cupcakes with either Hershey kisses, chocolate mousse, or raspberry filling along with [...]

Some of my club members swapped 6" x 6" recipe cards recently and I was lucky enough to get this ‘extra’ swap from Vicki!  (See Vicki’s baby card here.)  Not only does the recipe look delicious (who doesn’t like s’mores??) but the recipe card itself is just too darn cute!   There are so many great details! 
- marshmallows are [...]

I’ve been meaning to post this card for a while now and am finally getting around to it.  It’s an adorable card from Vicki for me and my new little one!  Isn’t it so cute?  Remember that Sale-A-Bration set So Many Scallops?  And I believe that’s the new Super Fine glitter on there.  And how cute is [...]

The first meeting of the Twist Card club is this coming Monday night, so I finished designing the final card for club today and used the Mojo sketch to help me do so!  This is one of those sets I had to have months ago that I’ve NEVER used – until now.  You know you [...]

This adorable card was given to me by Dawn B. congratulating us on the birth of our new son.  How cute is this?  Basically with the same punches, but changing one small detail (well, and the color of the faces of course) you have four adorable Sesame Street characters!  Love it!  Thank you Dawn.

What a clever use of the Enjoy Every Moment stamp set, huh?  It’s perfect for a recipe card!  Julie shared her Grammy’s Blueberry Cake recipe on a very nicely put together layout using Basic Black, Bravo Burgund, and Old Olive CS and ribbon.  And yes that’s faux stitching with the white gel pen all around [...]

Who doesn’t love a good Artichoke and Parmesan dip?  Definitely one of my faves.  Sarah created this recipe card – clever way to create an artichoke, huh?!  And then she complimented it nicely with some green DSP.  Again, a holiday DSP used in a non-holiday way – gotta love SU!’s DSPs!!

So, this is one of the two pages I was referring to in my last post about my stamping New Year’s resolution.   These are all pictures of my son this past November enjoying Disney.  (Club members, go to your section to see both pages and the other January layout.)

I wish I could say I’ve participated in all 33 of her Color Challenges, but alas, I have not.  But I did put some ink to paper tonight for the first time in two weeks! (And unfortunately you can tell I’m a bit rusty! LOL)  Oh well.
Here are the challenge colors:
