Lost Mojo Alert

I was on such a role there for a while, then life got in the way and I’ve been so busy with work that creativity took a backseat. It’s been a struggle to get back into it, but tomorrow is our 3rd Anniversary and I wanted to make my husband a card. So, I sat down at my desk and started playing around with my Autumn Vines DSP and the owl from Love Owlways. I love that paper; the designs usually come pouring out when I use it. It was a slow process tonight in making that card. I suppose I’m easing back into it. Hopefully I’ll be back into the swing of things soon.

I don’t want my husband to see the card yet so I’ll post it tomorrow, along with another card I struggled with and finally got it to work. It uses the coluzzle and boy let me tell you I am coluzzle challenged! I just can’t use that thing to save my life. I’m practicing, but it’s going to take a while 🙂

It’s a Birthday Party!

I finally got around to scrapbooking my daughter’s 2nd birthday (August 31st). Yay! I’m not so behind anymore. Nevermind I still have to do last Christmas, that’s not the point! When I got the Sweet Always DSP in my last order I loved the polka dot papers! I am obsessed with polka dots and circles. Originally my daughter had a polka dot dress to wear for her birthday but I ended up having to return it because it was too big on her.

Anyway, these pages are based on Layout 9 and 9a (See Scrapbook Layouts). I’m very happy with the way they turned out. I tried my best to photograph it, but it’s almost dinner time and pouring rain here, so the lighting/flash/etc just was not cooperating with me.

The sweet always polka dot dsp was cut to 11″x11″ and the regal rose is just a full 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheet of cardstock.
