More "Love" Word Book Pics

Here are two more pictures of the inside of the Scrappin'Words Love book. I used a Nestabilities Scallopped Heart to cut and emboss this cute little heart. With matching Groovy Guava ribbon from SU.

And here is the whole V layout. I have had requests for instructions on this and I am sorry this was designed in a sign makers program Called WinPC Sign. I use my PAZZLES PRO creative cutter to cut these out. If you have a Pazzles machine or a version of WinPC sign for another cutter, I will send you the file pattern. Don't forget to put a comment on the Milestones post if you want to win this little Love word book!

Happy New Year! New Stamps and New Paper!!

Did everyone eat their Black Eyed Peas for good luck in the New Year? Yup! Good old southern tradition. Every year on New Years day I go to my old street where I grew up and go to a good friends family home for this wonderful tradition of good food and good old friends (They were like my second parents growing up and since my parents are long gone, I get a bit of "family" time) Enough chit-chat......This pretty card was a Sketch Challenge from fellow blogger Lorraine Castellon-Rowe. This was my 1st Sketch Challenge ever. It's a New Year lets try new ideas. I absoulutly love the way this card came out! Thanks Lorraine for the inspiration! Also made a cute notepad and bag to give as a gift to the "Black Eyed Peas" cook.

Stamp Set: Embrace Life
Paper: All SU: Ruby Red, River Rock, Ginger Blossom DS paper, Natural white for the flower
Ink: Ruby Red Craft Heat embossed with detail clear. Ruby Red Classic w/ aqua painter for flower
Ribbon: River Rock Double-Stitched
Punch: Lg. Oval Punch

Happy New Year! Ginger Blossom Note Pad and Gift Bag

This adorable note pad is a Wal-Mart special. AMPAD 50 sheets 2 5/16 x 4 5/16, tiny and cute, perfect to put a quick shopping list on. Made this to match my Embrace life card. To tie it all together I quickly stamped a small gift bag, tissue and topped it with matching River Rock Double-Stitched ribbon.I really think this new stamp set Embrace Life is going to be a favorite of mine! And Ginger Blossom DS paper is going to get way tooooo much use from me.
