BOY

Hello are you ready for the weekend? Tomorrow is my daughters Birthday, she will turn 12, where has time gone?? We are just going to hang out in our backyard and BBQ, I invited a few guests and we are just going to have a good time!





So I have a Scrapbook Layout that I made a few days ago. This is my oldest son he is 17 now and will be graduating from High School this June. Where has time gone, I ask again?? I used Maja Design Papers these are Du och jag line. They are beautiful,versatile and fun to work with wink, wink!





I used a couple stamps from Stamp Enjoy, to accent my Lay Out. The Grille Fleurie and Love 1, I love how they look on my Lay Out!



My tag on the upper right hand corner started as a plain manila tag, I stamped the Music Notes stamp from Whimsy Stamps and I spritzed it with tattered Angels, I gave it an old look.



My chip board letters and the heart were painted with distress crackle paint!
I hope you enjoyed this LO and have a safe day!

New Mermaid #2

Hello thanks for peeking in, Today I have a card I made with one of the New Mermaid Stamps from In2Stamps. There's a total of three and all of them are the cutest thing!! This one I am showing is Mermaid #2.



I colored my image with Copic markers,I used lots of them, my table was covered with markers! If you love images with lots of details then this is perfect for you. The seam binding started life as white but I dyed it with Fired Brick distress Ink and it looks Pink/Peach, so it was perfect for this card!



My flowers are from IamRoses, love the gardenia!! I gave them the glitter treatment for a pretty sparkle. My sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps, these are the circle postmark sentiments. Did you see the cute little treasure chest? I think it goes perfect with this card!



Enjoy your day and thank you for your sweet comments!!

Challenges:
Charisma Cardz-Fantasy
Do you Stack Up-Ribbon (I dyed it myself)
