Where are my Stripes?

Micaela challenged all of us to make a card using Fiskars Scallop Banner Punch, the paper collection we picked for the store and to follow a particular favorite card we got from My Favorite Things.

Here is what everyone else came up with:

Joanna Carlson 

Micaela Inman 

Misty Valadez

Of course, I waited until last!  I was stumped.......my collection does not have stripes or polka dots!  What's a girl to do?  Improvise?  Get Creative?  Yep!  That is just what I did!

Here's my creation:

What do you think?  We all did a great job!  I hope Micaela has us do this again in the future!

Scrapping up Memories!

Today I would like to share with you a page I did using an old (Fall of 2010) Becky Fleck sketch she shared on the Scrapbooks and Cards Today site.

I have so very few GOOD pictures...I just love these of my kids on a particularly special camping trip we enjoyed with my husband's family.

Hakhavsuwa is Yavapai for Fossil Creek....where we camped in Arizona.

I used We R Memory Keepers Anthologie, Bazzill Basics Rain Forest, May Arts Ribbon, Hero Arts Flowers, and Bo Bunny Buttons.

Have a good weekend.

Here is a card I did for our blog at Paper Studio:

I was inspired by Mojo Monday's Sketch 238.  I used Graphic 45 Olde Curiosity Shoppe.

The details for the card can be found here.
