Digi Scrapbooking Layout

I'm still practicing with the digi scrapbooking. This is only the second one I've  made but I play with it all the time. I really like the way this one turned out!

Whale Card

 I started making this card with no intention of where it was going, so it should make a cute birthday card for a child.

The whale is from Simply Charmed
Cloud 9 Designs rain drops, I thought would be cute as bubbles
Cricut scrapbook paper

Route 66 | Manly Birthday Card

Get Your Kicks!

A man's birthday card is most definitely hard for a lot of us. The Nifty Fifties cart has a few things I found that work well, not being childish, or frilly.

I free handed the road
I did cut the "get your kicks" but chose not to use it.

The inside is simply stamped Happy Birthday.

Twisted Fabric Flower Wreath

Have fabric on hand? I sure did! I been wanting to make these fabulous twisted flowers. I have looked on youtube and blogs and then this morning in my email here it was, the best tutorial to make them, finally! I went straight to work.

Everything you see here was already on hand, how frugal is that! I have had this wreath for many years, it's seen its share of holidays!

But I love love this one! I will be hanging this on my door for Spring.

Want to make it too? Visit  the talented Lish at Imprintalish to learn how!
She has some beautiful Spring fabric for hers.

Thanks for visiting.

Spring Banner

 I was wanting to make something for Spring and a banner was what I had in mind. I used this as my inspiration.

What I Used:

DCWV  Glitter cardstock

Paper Studios scrapbook paper cut at 6 inches

We R Memory Keepers sew easy for the stitching

Buttons from Bo Bunny and Epoxy buttons are from Little Yellow Bicycle
Epoxy buttons have embroidery floss tied in the middle

Regular sized and craft clothes pins

Butterfly's were cut from Cricut's Cake Seasonal Sampler

Birds were cut from Cricut's Best Images of 2009

Flowers and letters cut from  Plantin SchoolBook

Small flowers have brads in the center that go through the cardstock
