Halloween Tags

Hi everyone!!  I have a couple of Halloween tags to share with you.  Autumn is my most favorite time of the year and I can't wait for all of the holidays that are right around the corner.  

I made these tags using the fabulous Bella! Fusion papers, Bella! Mini Theme Paperz, Bella! Year in Review, Fundamentals Tags and Vellum and some of my Halloween stash.

On this first tag, I stamped images onto Fundamental Vellum. This Vellum is thick and sturdy and doesn't warp from the ink- some vellum warps and kind of curls when you place ink on it, but not this one!!  I used the Bella! Family Mini Theme Paperz and Bella! Year in Review.  

 This tag was created with Bella! Yellow Fusion Paperz and Fundamentals Tags.  With a little ink and some background spider web stamps, this paper is easy to alter for just about any project.

And my last tag is just sweet and cute.  I again used the Bella! Yellow Fusion paper and Bella! Year in Review.  I stamped images onto my paper and used a circle punch and stamped my sentiment onto  a  Fundamentals Tag. Some stitching, ribbon and a spider button finish this off.

Supplies used:

Bella! Family Mini Theme Paperz

Happy Days Layout

Hi Everyone!!  I am so excited about the new Ruby Rock-It release- Happy Days!!!  I can't begin to tell you how pretty and fresh this paper range is !!  The colors are vibrant, the patterns are timeless-love, love love!!

If you are like me, the kids are back to school and life feels kind of back to normal, but at the same time, it feels odd to not have them home.  It's a great time to get back to scrapping and getting all of those summer time memories together.  I made this layout of my beautiful daughter.  I can't believe she is growing up so quickly (ok, all grown up.  I'm just in denial).  

I layered the Happy Days Range on top of the new Dancette Paperz in Teal.  Dancette is beautiful, heavy weight cardstock with a glittered pattern (Glittered!!!).  And for all of those people who don't care for the mess of glitter- none of the glitter rubbed off.  Nope, not a speck of glitter was left on my table.  

I added some stitching and used the Happy Days Die-Cut Pack for all of my embellies.   This pack has everything in it!!

Summer Trinket Box

Hi everyone!!    I have a sweet little trinket box to store all of my treasures from this summer.  I can't believe that summer break is over for us,and the kids go back to school Monday. But at least I have a safe place to keep my precious memories. 

I used the beautiful Bella! Mini Theme Paperz.  Believe it or not, but this is a combination of the Baby girl and Baby Boy paperz.

I used some of the beautiful Bella! Florals to accent and decorate my box.  I glittered up my flowers and used some of my ribbon and lace stash to decorate my box.

A little touch of Vintage

Hi everyone!!   I have this cute little mail-holder to share with you today.  If you are like me, mail mysteriously appears kind of everywhere in your home- kitchen counters, dining room table, coffee table.  Well, this is going to be my solution.  I saw this cute distressed wire hanger while out and thought- Bella! Florals would look beautiful on this!!

I used my favorite Bella! Sugar Candy Cardstock and created some box pleats to trim the edge of the basket.  

I glittered up some flowers, tied some silky bows from ribbon and used some lace from my stash to embellish.  Lastly, I used one of the new Tags from the Fundamentals collection.  Love these!!!

Happy Independence Day!!

Hi everyone!!  I have a couple of 4th of July goodies to share with you today.  I have to say that red, white and blue is a very pretty color combination and the Ruby Rock-It products work perfectly for creating decor!! 

I made a card, candy poppers (or glitter and confetti!!) and some star decorations that you could add to cupcakes, fruit kabobs, whatever your heart desires.

I used a Fundamentals card base to create this card, along with some Bella!Red Fusion and Bella! Something Blue Paperz.

These are fun little poppers that you can fill with all kinds of treats.  And lastly these fun little stars.  I used  the Fundamentals Vellum to highlight the stars.

Loving Layouts

Hi everyone!!  I made a layout this week of my beautiful baby girl.  I can't believe that my baby is 19-what??  How did time fly by so quickly?  

 I used the Bella! Krafty Goodness and Bella! Teal Fusion Ranges to make this layout.  Since my daughter is not a fan of pink (how can that be?)  or lacy frilly things (so not like me, lol), these paper ranges are perfect for her.  They are beautiful, classic and work for any occasion.

I used the oh so cute new Fundamentals Wood Veneers.  They come in all sorts of fun shapes and alphas too.  You can leave them bare, like I did.  or you can ink, spray, paint, distress, foil,-the list goes on and on.  And of course the beautiful Bella! Florals.  I can't get enough of these flowers!!

I covered a bottle with the luscious Bella! My Romance Range and of course, my favorite Fundamentals Decoupage!! 

The Decoupage packs are so user friendly- they are labeled so that you know which pieces belong together and which order to stick them together.  All you need is a bit of dimensional adhesive and you are good to go!!

Happy Father's Day!!!

Hi everyone!! I have a sweet little Father's Day project to share with you.  I love my Daddy and wanted to make something for him and me.  Father's are there to nurture, protect and guide you.  They are every girl's first love.

This month we are having a product swap with Clear Scraps.  I used their beautiful album in a different way.  As much as I love mini albums, I wanted something that I could visually see every time I walk down my hallway.  So I used a couple of the album pages to create this wall hanging.

I used the KraftyGoodness range from Bella to make this wall hanging, along with some of the ever beautiful Bella! Florals

Supplies used:

Bella! Krafty Goodness Paperz

Bella! Florals

Layout featuring Krafty Goodness

I used the new Corrugated Paper that's being offered by Ruby Rock-It!!  I love Corrugated Paper, but especially the red.  It has a spattered effect that is so eye catching.

I used the Bella Florals to enhance my layout as well.  These flowers are so versatile and can be changed up to work with any of your projects.  I also used the new Fundamentals Alphabets.  i love the variety of sizes!! So much Fun!!

Bella! Rustic Charm project

Hi everyone!! I have a  fun little basket to share that I created with the new release Bella!  Rustic Charm.  I absolutely love this paper and just can't get enough of it!!

I made this little treat basket using only one sheet of paper and a little bit of math (I know- math is not always fun, but in this case it is!!)

I used some crepe paper to create the fringe and a strip of paper for the handle. And of course, don't forget the beautiful Bella! Florals!!  I glittered those babies up and they sparkle and shine beautifully!!

I also used the new Fundamentals Tags.  They come in a variety of awesome shapes and are available in both white and Kraft- easy to alter, spritz, ink up- whatever your heart desires!!

Spring Cards

Hi everyone!!  I have a few spring inspired cards to share with you.  I love the beautiful soft pastel colors that are associated with spring, and the new Bella! Rustic Charm range from Ruby Rock-It is just perfect for that!

These cards are just perfect to let someone you love and care about know that you are thinking of them.

I used the new Bella! Florals on this card.  These paper flowers are beautiful and can be altered to suit your needs.  You can spray them, ink them, glitter them, stamp on them- you get the idea, right?

I used the Fundamentals Decoupage on this card.  I love the vintage look of these decoupage pieces, and they are so easy to use.  They are numbered and all you need to do is assembly with some foam adhesive!!
