Wonder

I LOVE Tim Holtz's new Lost & Found paper stack, it inspires me so much and always seem to create what I want. The stamp is from Paper Trey Ink (thanks Emma!) and they are some of the cutest stamps for babies I have ever seen!

Time Flies

A card I made for a friends birthday, not a usual birthday card! I used Lost and Found paper stack (LOVE these papers so much I dont want to use them!) UTEE'd the bird cage and stamped and inked the bird behind it (cant really see it with the bad photo). Glossy accented a clock (yo can see  missed the edge of it!) and embossed the phase time flies. I like how it came out :)

Big Foot

One of the last scans (one of 26) Eli kicked the scanner and we got a great shot of his big feet! I took a photo last week of his foot pushing out the incubator door, so thought it would be a great scrap opportunity!
Sketch is a creative scrappers sketch, who else!
Sorry my photo editor is out of date so can't edit it!

Baby card

No not for us, been meaning to make it for a while and it was just one of those cards that pressure on me until it was done so in the end it turned into a chore *sigh, card making just isn't for me!

Sweet Dreamer


I'm back, I'm back wooooo
Journalling reads:
Wonder what you are dreaming about, all you know is incubators and needles- maybe dreaming about coming home with us
With such lovely photos I don't need to do much

Amy's reaction

Hey will you be my 365 I say, sure she says
Smile...I'm pregnant I say
A full conversation of OMG is it ok? is it ok?
I love how she went from pale and collected to purple and crying lol

Miss my embosser today, running out of techniques! I need a refresher course :)

Part deux of my duvet

I could use nothing toxic or a heat tool and pretty much just what I packed...things got strained near the end!

Daddy Practice

I love this photo of D and Fleurie, she clawed her way up on to him and plonked herself down for a nap and ever so slowly started to slide off as she was napping! I was going to do faux stitching and then I thought...what else do I have to be doing? :) Basic Grey paper, can be a bit busy but I think it works with big photos so they don't get lost in the patterns.

Hospital Scrapping

Well I've nothing better to do, do I!! I wonder will they give me another table? The doctors keep coming and plopping my file on top of all the bits and I have to do everything in my power to slap them across the head and scream "My god man, it's wet with glossy accents what's WRONG with you? Sheesh"

Flour bebe is actually a bag of flour weighed out to 690g what baby weighed last week and wrapped in a premmie baby grow. I showed a paed nurse this today and she thought it was so funny although said McDivapants wouldn't be as fat as the bag of flour!

All the better to see you with



I saw this photo and thought of that saying straight away! As usual I was short on letters and ended up having to make every letter in BETTER! I triple embossed a bit of cardboard and stamped SEE into it, when it was cooled I restamped see with embossing ink and brushed on some lovely green eyeshadow! It's handy to be able to use all the gank eyeshadow you wouldn't normally wear :)

Pregnancy journal

I HATE my bind it all and it hates me (really should read some instructions on how to use it!) but this a pregnancy journal for a friend, quite like how it came out :)

Pre Father's Day Card

I didn't know he expected one!! He only told me on the fly in passing so of course I had to make one, not the best but I like the sentiment of the card!
