Faith

I absolutely LOVE these flowers! They are called button carnations. I watched a tutorial on them on YouTube by Connie MacFarlane and they are super easy and give such an elegant touch to anything! I plan to use them often! Enjoy!

Twisted Easel Card

I found this super cute card on Youtube and I have fallen in love with it! Instead of a fold up easel card, this one folds up and twists to the side. It adds a little extra "pop" to the card. Hope you enjoy!

Card Box

Here is a super cute card box that I made using my CTMH Sophia Paper and some Prima flowers. I got this idea from a fellow consultant. I am still working on all the cards to go inside but I have a sample of one to go along with the box. Enjoy!

Happy Father's Day

I hope everyone is doing well. It's been a while since I've posted anything but it just seemed like I kept getting bad news. I just lost my uncle a little over a month ago and then my grandfather 2 weeks ago. Needless to say I haven't been inspired very much. I am trying to get back to work. Here is a quick Father's Day card that was inspired by one of my fellow CTMH consultants. I used our retired Sasaparilla Paper that I TOTALLY forgot I even had. Hope you like and I will be posting more very soon! Have a blessed day!

Spring Break Is Over

Well happy Sunday all!! This weekend has been SUPER busy! Saturday was both me and my nephew's birthday! He turned 1 and I turned.....well we will keep that a secret. So I had all the family over and gave him a birthday party! It was lots of fun and I took lots of pics that I will post soon. I will be back in the craft room this week and will post some new work. Have an awesome day!

Lots of love and scraps,
Nicole

Happy St. Paddy's Day

Today was an awesome day! I spend the day with one of my closest friends and my daughter and we had a girls day. We had brunch and went shopping! Lots of fun! Here's a quick card that I made for a friend for St. Patricks Day! Enjoy!


Happy St. Paddy's Day to me!! Here's my new toy!! I'm super excited! The Spellbinders Grand Calibur!!


Lots of love and scraps,

Thank You Tuesday

Here are a few cards that I made for our Thank You Sistah/Brotha RAK Swap over at SOC. I chose to do the same design since I was making several but I did them in different colors. Again I used the Cricut Lite Cartridge Lacy Labels, Forever Young Cartridge and the Thank You Sentiment is from CTMH's Say it in Style stamp set. The various paper for the dress is from my scrap bin and the flower accents are my absolute FAVORITE Prima Flowers. They are the best! Hope you enjoy this thankful Tuesday!

Lots of Love and Scraps,

Nicole

More Monday Madness

Here are a couple more cards I did today. I used the Cricut Lite Lacy Labels Cartridge to cover the card base. I love Lacy Labels. It's such a great cartridge with lots of versatility! More to come on tomorrow!

Lots of Love and Scraps,
Nicole

Monday Madness

Happy Monday to you! I'm back at it again! I got a late start after being a little lazy today with the rainy weather here. I've managed to get 2 cards done and I am still working! I feel like my mojo is back! Stay tuned!

It is such a beautiful day here in La Porte! The sun is shining and I am finally feeling a little creativity start to flow. The last few weekends have been busy but the calls have not stopped coming!
