It’s ok it’s a nice shark!

Under water cards are such fun to make. I am experimenting with different ways to use stencils to create the rays of sun breaking through the water. And what under water scene is complete without a cute shark.

Little Ray of Sunshine

I had a chance to have some card making fun and I chose to have some under water fun. 

I used some distress inks to create my back ground. I also used my Heffy Doodle stamps to create the cute little sting ray and the sea bed below.

A Great Grandmothers Love

Grams love for her youngest great granddaughter is just like her candy jar - it never runs out!

I had fun watercolouring the little hearts in the jar. Once again I used the lovely cut files from Pink Fresh Studio for this cute little layout.

Some scrapbook fun to create this rainbow flower garden layout. Playing with Watercolors is so much fun! These cut files from Pink Fresh Studio are so beautiful, and they always cut out so easily.

Tea Time Everyday

For National Scrapbook Day I took time for my crafty self and worked on some scrapbook pages. I hate to admit how far behind in my scrapbook creations I am, but that little baby is turning 13 in just 3 short weeks.  In a way though I am glad that I didn’t scrap this photo earlier.  By waiting until now I was able to really reflect on all the many ways that my sweet middle child oldest daughter is so very much like my Grandma - her Great Grandma. What a great way to document my discovery. 

I used paper from my collection and some wonderful cut files from Pink Fresh Studio Stamps. I loved those cups. They reminded me that my Grandma seldom ever used delicate teacups but she always had a cup of tea on the go - usually in larger mugs that resembled those cut file mugs. I also chose that lovely word art Everyday. Because both grandma and Great Granddaughter have a hot cup of tea everyday. I am very happy with how it turned out.

Shaped card

I pulled out my favourite Pink Fresh Studio Stamp and coloured it with my water color pencils in purple hues to create this hexagon shaped card. A pretty quick and easy card to have on hand.

Layout - Proud

Today I am sharing an 8x8 layout. I have been working on memory books for my kids of their time spent with their Great Grandmother. She is currently 105 and doing very well. We spend lots of time visiting her at the nursing home where she lives. 

This layout features the beautiful stamp set from Pink Fresh Stamps which I coloured using watercolour pencils.  

I thought I was done with this layout but then decided to give it a title. Proud. This amazing Great Grandmother is always so proud of her Great Grandchildren. And this photo captured her pride after Raelynn played the piano for her. 

I love how those flowers turned out with the blended purple colouring.
