Scarlet Lime GDT

I'm so excited to be the Guest Designer for Scarlet Lime!! I have been subbing to her kits for awhile and love them. Christy is such an awesome person to work with. She has such a fun and loving personality about her. I was thrilled to work with some new CHA stuff! I just loved the colors and embellishments of this kit. If you haven't tried Scarlet Lime before this is the kit to start with ;)
Here are some of my layouts. This one is a picture of my four dressed up fo trick or treat.

Love the new Jillibean corrugated butterflies and banners! (alphas are from my stash)


This is a precious picture of Hannah and her daddy just chillin'.


This is Noah. He loves to dress himself ;) He always puts his shoes on the wrong feet or 2 different shoes. So Cute (for now lol)!


Love the Studio Calico flowers! And those SC clouds are so cute too!

3:16 (John)

Today is March 16 (3-16) so in honour of this day Klove is making it a "national holiday" to celebrate John 3:16. I think this is an awesome idea! So spread the Word and let someone know what John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
You could change someones day just by sharing God's Word!!

Some More Jillibean Soup

Here is some Jillibean Soup "Blossom Soup". I'm trying out for their Design Team can't you tell?! We were talking over at a message board I'm on and we were saying it is best to try out for DT's you are passionate about and this is so true. Why try out if you don't like their stuff? But in this case, I LOVE their products!! I love their paper, their embellishments, and those awesome journaling sprouts! Seriously what's not to LOVE!! My LSS doesn't carry their paper so I have to admit I ordered these (now if that doen't show how passionate I am) to work with. I just love how these turned out.
This is "Miss Hannah"


Here is a close up some flowers I made and the embellishments I used.



This is Faith wearing her new "Spring Dress"

I made those little flowers from the paper.

Do you see the cute little dress I cut out? I also made that green border by taking paper stripes and folding them. I will do a tutorial later this week.

Here are 2 cards I made.

I love the diecut and stickers that are with this line. They have really great sayings.

This card has a cute little pocket and belt.

Thanks for looking! Have a wonderful day that the Lord has made!!

Our Life

In this layout I used some more of the new Jillibean Soup "Blossom Soup". This was a fun layout I had in mind. These are just some fun pictures of my kids doing everyday things. Hannah spends her time playing with her toys, Faith loves doing gymnastic things (standing on her head), Ty and Noah love to play together, and then you have the family chilling on Sunday. I love my life and my family makes it worth every minute!



Here I used some Jeni Bowlin Paint to pop out the white letters.

Here I cut out some of the clouds and flipped them over and misted then reused them to put beside the misted clouds. I also "pen" stitched around the clouds to make them "pop".

Paper Bag Purse using Jillibean Soup

I made these cute Paper Bag Purses with the new Jillibean Soup papers and embellishments. This is the new Blossom Soup line. I just love the colors and designs of these papers. Yes, I ran out and got these as soon as they were released :) Wouldn't you?! I used these bags for my daughter's birthday party. I put candy in them for the girl's she invited. They loved them!
Here is a tutorial of how to make them. They are super easy and don't take long at all.

Here is a side view of the bag.

Here is a view from the top.

First you cut a paper bag 4 inches from the bottom.

Next you pick your patterned paper and cut 2 sheets 5 1/4 x 4 inches and 1 sheet 1 3/4 x 4 inches.

Next you cut a sheet of cardstock 5 1/2 x 6 1/4 and 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. Then score the longer one at 2 inches.

Next adhere the patterned paper to the cardstock.

Use a hole punch to punch holes in the back of the cardstock. (for ribbon)

Pick your ribbon and and make the handles. Tape the ribbon to the cardstock. (the paper bag will hide it)

Lay your bag with the little flap up(front) and flip it over to adhere the bigger cardstock.

Make sure you line up your cardstock

And last add your velcor for the closure. And embellish with what ever you would like.

Happy Birthday Faith!!

Today is my baby girl's 6th Birthday!! I woke her this morning singing Happy Birthday to you. Then Hannah started to stir (they sleep in the same room). And I said to her "just think 6 years ago you were sleeping in that crib". Where has the time gone?! I'm so proud of how far she has come. She is such a bright and thoughtful little girl. She does like to win at every game we play but we are working on that ;) She is very helpful and likes to cook with me. She loves playing soccer, Barbies, Littlest Pet Shop, and Horses. Happy Birthday Faith!!

Here she is at the age of 11 months. (I didn't get a digital camera till she was about 9 months)

Here she is today.

And here are the cupcakes we made for her class today. They are rainbow fish made with M&M's and fruit slices as the tail.

New Challenge and Some Jillibean Soup

Good Morning! I have had a busy week. My daughter Faith is having her first sleepover tonight. She is my first baby and she will be 6! Where has the time gone?! So tonight I will have 4 extra girls here. I'm sure it will be fun. We are doing pizza, cupcakes, and a movie. I went shopping ALL day yesterday with my mom. It was so fun!! We haven't done that in a long time. While I was out I had had a great idea for a challenge for the Sweet Peach Blog. My challenge is to make a card and send it. Did you ever get a card just because? How did it make you feel? Well, I'm sure someone would really appericate a "just because" card. So I made this one for my mom.

Here is my card: I just love the new Jillibean Soup and bought some as soon as it was available.

Products: Jillibean Blossom Soup, Jillibean Soup Minestrone, Jillibean Alphas, Jillibean Soup Twine, Basic Grey Buttons, Maya Road Heart

I used some new Glimmer Glaze on the heart.
