March ScrapBookPlace Blog Hop! - Wild Cards!

Welcome to my blog! If you arrived here from Linda's blog you are on the right track. If not click on her name and start from the beginning and work your way through a lovely, fun showing of some "wild cards"! After you visit my space head on over to Allie's blog and be sure to leave comments all the way through! You never know what's in store for those that do! Enjoy!

My card was made from an assortment of left overs ;) .. that's what we had for dinner so that's what worked for my scrappin' time! I made this Easter Card for my stepdaughter in Texas. I used Coordinations Cardstock and Basic Grey pattern papers and partial tag. The lamb is from my create a critter cartridge and the eggs were from my spring stash. Petaloo flowers for her bows and stickles on the eggs! Maybe not wild but definitely fun to make!

Blog Design Team Word Challenge!

Ok this is my first challenge on a blog design team for Scrapbook Place. The challenge was a word challenge which included "Spring" in the subject. So this was my take! I had the idea as soon as I got the email only because I have been playing so much with my Create a Critter Cartridge lately. Many of the odds and ends came from recent RAKS or Swaps or Pifs so I can't tell you all the specifics for each item used only that it was all made due to the many fun things I've received in the mail lately!

It is a 12x12 Layout and I plan to use it this spring after I get some shots of Tyler outside! Come on Spring!!

Paper is from Coordinations Cardstock. Flowers are from various companies including Prima, Petaloo and a HM flower from Linda W. The border sticker is from K&Co. The chipboard alpha is leftovers from several sets I bought years ago at Archivers. The frog and sun were HMBM using Create a Critter Cartridge. The ladybug and several of the ribbon and bling were all from recent swaps, pifs and raks! Thanks to everyone for helping me make this fun LO!!

Last share of swaps and such!

thanks for looking at my stuff :) here is a card I created last minute for my daughter to give to one of her friends that is turning 21. I can remember when these girls were all in Kindergarten .. ugh !!! I also made this adorable Dino Roar Tag for a swap and wanted to share that too!

more Cricut Cut Pifs :)

These were all cricut cut pifs done by me and my little bug! I love that little bug!

Lots of PIFS and SWAPS !

... this last month my time has been spent being creative BUT .. in a fun different way. Piffing and Swapping! A PIF ( pay it forward ) is an item or items that I have that I pass on to another scrapper for their use and in turn will at some point receive a PIF from another scrapper or the same person I shared my goodies with. Swapping is a bit different. Five or Six or MORE ppl create one piece of a kit or a like item and send in as many items as there are swappers. Each swapper will then get back a different piece of the kit or items of various creative measures to use how they wish! Here are a few of my swaps and pifs from this last month! All of these items are Page kits either for pifs or swaps!

3 cards for the stash bash!

Ok I need to put the card stuff away and get back to swaps and lo's but this is fun .. all of the items are from my stash and these stamped images come from Pat who sent me a full Pif of new images to play with! Thanks again!

my last card for this weekend :)

I don't feel like I accomplished a lot with scrappin' this weekend but I did a lot of shipping for Ebay and some house stuff as well as enjoy a nice family dinner for Valentine's Day last night and spent the day with both my DH and DS today. So all in all to finish two cards was a great accomplishment, but even if I didn't complete anything, family time is always more important! Everyone is sleeping now except the momma so I'm playing a little and this is the newest Stash Bash card for me :) again thanks to Linda for the stamped image and the rest is from my own stash, skittles from a rak from a friend, border from K&C Co. and the paper is from a TLC Runway Kit.

TFL!!
