Winter Wonderland 2 Crafty chipboard inspiration.

Hello everyone,

I have a couple Christmas projects to share with you!

My first project is a layout.

 I used Maja Design papers and left the layout pretty shabby.

 I embossed the chipboard with white embossing powder.

You can see how I created this layout in the video below.

Here is a few detail photos.

I love this Merry Christmas sentiment. I also tucked a doily border behind
some of the paper and I love the snowflake chipboard pieces.

Mixed media canvas

Hello everyone! 

I have created a mixed media canvas! It is a little out of my comfort zone with the colors but I had a lot of fun with it and I love the result. 

I used some Tim holtz tissue paper so the background had some interest and texture. I then used some fabric, Art stones, and metals to create more texture. I used Frank Garcia's Artisan powder and some of Finnabair's rust paste along with some Prima color bloom spray to create the color. 

You can see how I created it in this video

September 2 crafty chipboard layouts

Hey everyone. I have a couple layouts to share with you. I created these for 2Crafty chipboard

 I kept them pretty simple as I am trying to make more layouts that
 I can put in my scrapbook albums. 

The first layout  I painted the chipboard with black gesso. I have some peeking out from
the layers of paper. I also used part of a circle chipboard that I painted with black gesso.
 The Together title I painted with white gesso.

as well as the gorgeous fine and dainty Squiggly Heart Cluster.

Abby turns 5!!!! May 30th

Hi everyone! I wanted to share some photos and ideas from Abby's 5th birthday

She wanted a Paw Patrol birthday until the week of her Birthday party and she changed her mind to Doc Mcstuffin. I got most of these ideas from Pinterest. 

I kept the decorations pretty simple to mostly store bought. I found this made things less stressful in the end and everything really goes in the trash anyways so it was no time wasted. 

Here are some fun ideas for some snacks 

I got the cute print outs from this Etsy shop Swish Printables

I just printed them out and adhered them to some cardstock. 

I am most proud of my cupcakes. I am not a baker. I can barely pull off a box cake so when the cupcakes turned out so well I was so excited. 

I got the recipe for the cupcakes here. 

I got the recipe for the frosting here 

If you want to see more of the birthday celebration you can see the Birthday Vlog here. 

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
