Plus I used Heidi Swapp's new Dreamy Kraft tags on a few layouts. I also used Maya Roads crochet trim and kraft butterflies.<br />

She showed me some samples, and I couldn't wait to make it! The baby bum is so cute hiding under a blanket. I made some cute little baby feet from fondant, as well as the polka dots and blanket. <div>

<a href="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6932_zpsbe03d9f7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6932_zpsbe03d9f7.jpg" height="265" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
This was my first attempt at playing with Prima's Mixed Media Doll stamps by Julie Nutting. There are so many to choose from, but I thought the mermaid would be fun to play with. I created 2 different styles of tags, one bright and playful, the other with a vintage vibe.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6922_zpsd6cc8d08.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6922_zpsd6cc8d08.jpg" height="640" width="426" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the vintage one, I started with a bit of stamping, then ripped a piece of Tim Holtz kraft glassine paper and crumpled/inked it. I used modeling paste with a chicken wire stencil over it and added some liquid pearls for bubbles. The mermaid consists of papers from Authentique. I added some tuile ribbon from SU finished off with a couple tassels from Prima. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span">The fun bright tag had alot of layers on it. I started by ripping pieces of scraps from Bella Blvd. Molly line. Then glued them, added some stickers from the same line, then brushed on TH crackle paint. The gorgeous mermaid is so glittery! I added tiny star glitter (</span>MS) <span class="Apple-style-span">to the tail and some Dazzling Diamonds (SU) on her body, finished off with a flower in her hair and some enamel dots for bubbles. I really love these, and plan on putting the on a layout someday soon!</span></div>

<a href="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6874_zps02cbfe2a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6874_zps02cbfe2a.jpg" height="640" width="459" /></a></div>
<br />
I've always wanted to make a button tree canvas of some sort, so I finally did it! I picked up a canvas from the dollar store, can I just say Dollar Tree is amazing!! This is a 9x12 canvas, I covered with Bo Bunny Double dot cardstock. Then I painted a tree with black paint, and added Tim Holtz crackle paint on the trunk. I loved how that turned out, it looks like a real trunk, all 'barky'.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6870_zps1011ba5c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/leighmorgie/IMG_6870_zps1011ba5c.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I just glued away....tons of buttons, flowers, crocheted doilies and flowers until I was satisfied. I also drew some curly branches with a thin sharpie, then added some liquid pearls all over and sprinkling down from the tree. The 'grass' is a wide green crochet trim from Bo Bunny. I finished it off with some cute epoxy sayings. I love how bright and cheery this is, makes me want Spring to come even faster!!<br />

<tr><td colspan="2" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="postbody" style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;">I've been so excited to finally share my project with you all! I got to play with one of the new Prima doll stamps, and I picked the mermaid one. I had an idea a while ago, when I found some pretty green/blue sequins, to add them to the mermaid's tail. So I decided to try a mixed media canvas. This was my first attempt doing something like this! I started by sponging yellow ink for the sun, then 3 shades of orange to create a sunset. I used one of my new stencils from CW called Rosetta and spritzed a shimmery peach over it. For the water, I ripped pieces of cardstock into wavy strips, spritzed them with some blue shimmer and added some swirls and stickles. The sand is some crochet trim with sandy sequins. I added some splashes with liquid pearls and stickles, as well as some TH crackle paint in some areas to add some shine. The mermaid took quite a bit of patience to glue on all those sequins, but I love how it turned out, and looks like fish scales! I wanted to make her kind of look like Ariel, with red hair and purple 'clam shell bra' <img alt="Very Happy" border="0" src="http://www.thescrappingnook.ca/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" /> I added the 'Discover' sticker from Heidi Swapp as well. </span></td></tr>

Back in January, for my Design week at <a href="http://www.thescrappingnook.ca/">The Scrapping Nook</a>, I got to play with some goodies from Pink Paislee's line, Portfolio. I created 5 layouts using the papers and tiny tabs, as well as some Jillibean Soup Flashcards and Wise Word stickers along with some Maya Road crochet trims.<br />

<br />
<br />
Every month at <a href="http://www.thescrappingnook.ca/">The Scrapping Nook</a>, we do a sketch challenge. As part of the design team, I have to prepare a sample. I used up some of my stash for my layout including, Heidi Swapp papers and sticker letters, Stampin' Up! ribbons and heart punch.<br />
<br />
This is the sketch we are using this month from PageMaps:<br />

She loves animals and the noises they make. I made these adorable farm animal cupcakes with a little barn cake for her party. She loved them, and couldn't decide which animal she wanted, so she tested each one!<br />

This was from a 'Self Love' challenge on The Scrapping Nook. I took this selfie at a crop retreat in Banff. I used punched shapes to create a pattern on the left side. I also did some sponging with a honeycomb stencil. The papers are from Webster's Pages Family traditions line, and those cute wooden camera/polaroid pieces are from Maya Road. I'm totally addicted to enamel dots too! these ones are from MME.</div>

It's been a sad few days here, but I've taken tons of photos of Jack interacting with his big sis Sugar and auntie Lola through the last 5 months we had him. Here's a layout I did of Sugar and Jack play fighting. <br />

It will be held at <a href="http://www.thescrappingnook.ca/">The Scrapping Nook </a>in Port Colborne on Sunday July 14 at 2pm. We will be doing a double layout as well as 2 single layouts. You will receive the 12x12 paper pack with 2 sheets of stickers and transparent overlays, plus cardstock stickers, brads, extra paper and bingo cards for only $22!! It's a steal! There will be TONS left over for you to keep creating at home! This line is full of fun bright colours and summery images, I love it! </div>

These are the samples of what we will be doing, however you are free to change up the details to fit your own photos. If you are like me, I like to have my photos printed out and ready for scrapping, rather than leaving it blank and adding them later....so take a look and decide what you want to fit in each layout.<br />

I'm doing a swap for masculine cards, and thought it would be perfect to do a Father's Day card. My mom found a piece of fabric so I decided to make a shirt card. I just cut the top and folder it over to make a collar. Then added some buttons and a little pocket. I stamped 'dad' with Stampin' Up's Sweet Shoppe alphabet set. Then finished it off with a cute little 'hi' wooden pin from Little Yellow Bicycle.<br />

I did this card last month for a swap. I used Stampin' up cardstock with the honeycomb embossing folder, then sanded it a bit. Also used paper and stickers from the Epic Day line. Aren't those little bottle caps cute?!<br />
