a Spring Love Bouquet to cheer up our new house!

I used my favorite an Angel Pin and a gorgeous black and white
beaded pin made especially for me.. (yes Jessica does custom orders!)
I also used an Elegant Florals Pleated Petal in white...
I used a cross, and two hearts.



I also used a Kraft envelope.
The saying says
"You make flowers grow in the saddest part of me."
I also used some pretty ribbon from
its May Arts Chevron yellow ribbon 3/4 inch

The black bling is from a roll... I added red for a 
gorgeous pop of colour throughout the whole album!



All the pages have an insert! 


I used feathers and pearls... lots of pearls!




I used Cotton Candy Stickles here and there all though the album.
I made the whole album with envelopes.


The pockets are all awesome!
I used my butterfly border die on the left page..


I put the journalling pages inside two of the page inserts.


I also used some lace I found!


I just love all the tags that come with this file..



Check out the post card to journal on!

Gorgeous paper + bling + flowers = beautiful

8X8 Vintage Digital Printable Scrapbook Paper- "Vintage Butterfly Script" - 3 cards

Vintage Butterfly Script!
I am in love with this paper!
It is  8x8 Vintage Digital Printable Scrapbook Paper
 I made 3 cards with this paper.. 


Card one highlights the butterflies on this paper.
I also distressed the edges to add dimension.
I added a computer generated sentiment and some bling.


Card two also highlights the butterflies.
I cut them out and added glossy accents.
I added script embossing folder on the pink paper.
I added some twine.
I ripped the vintage butterfly script paper .
I added a  flourish.


With the third card I highlighted the paper by cutting it
 into four equal blocks. 
I added some bling. I also added some  
gorgeous green ribbon.
The sentiment is computer generated.
I have to say that all the cards just about made themselves
with this gorgeous paper.
You can find it here....
The best part is ... it's only 1.25.

Have a great Thursday...
You should come back tomorrow and see...
A mini album I had a blast making...

Today my project is from Eureka!
I am a new design team member at Through The Craftroom Door
and Eureka is our sponsor this week!


My card is a  5 1/2 by 5 1/2 inch card.
It is the most darling snowman circle! 
All the winter images are so darn cute..
I had a hard time picking just one I wanted to do.


This is a digital image from Eureka. I printed him out twice.
I paper pieced the hat and the arms and the wreath.
I used icicle stickles all around the snowflakes.
I coloured the rest with copics.
I used Aleen's snow on the snowman for dimension.
The patterned paper is from my stash.
The ribbon is a present from a friend..
a new (kind of ) toy ..
I also used a new gold pearl pen.
Everyone that knows me know I have weakness for ribbon.
The sentiment is something I had in my stash.

Tsunami Rose Design Team - 3 Fold Card

Today I get to announce I am a new member of the Tsunami Rose Design Team.
I am so excited! I love Daisy's Vintage Digital Papers.
You can find the Tsunami Rose paper here.
Today I  made a card for my project.
It is called a 3 fold card. It is a new design for me.
The paper I used for my card is called Monochrome Black.


I used Candy Cane Stickles.
I also used MS's heart border punch.
I used some lace and flowers from my stash.
I also used some black bling that came in a roll.



There are all different colours of this file.
I am using Black....
It is so versatile as you can add any colour and get different feelings... 
I chose red for a pop of colour... 
but you could use pink and it would shout romance.
 I chose bling and glitter and pearls as I feel they accent these papers the best!

I really like the 3 fold card.
The tutorial is here..
