TSQ Feature Designer

Hi my crafty friends, come on in and sit down and visit for a little while,  Today I am Feature Designer for The Scrapbooking Queen.

I am soo excited to share with you this cute card I made using La La Land stamp Winter Marci.  I got her on clearance from La La Land stamps she is on the retired list,  she was soo cute I could not pass this up. I was at my daughters softball game I saw it posted on FB they were having a clearance sale I could not pass it up, it was an offer I could not refuse. I am also using  The Queens Stamp set Royal Friends, her stamps are so versatile they go with any kind of stamp set you have or digi stamps.  I love how this card turned out. I colored her with Copic Markers.

TSQ Royal Digi Challenge

Happy Monday,

Today is the TSQ Royal Digi Challenge Anything Goes,  for my project today I chose Meljens Digi  I used this cute digital image on a layout instead of card, its been a little warm.  I thought this digi looked very cooling.  I used scrap paper that I had I have alot of that I am trying to use. 
                         The picture below I used my copic markers to color this cute digi image.  You can see on the picture below I used some of the Queens Jewels & twine for the banner  you can get those at her castle.

I used my Nestabilitiees banner die I think they came out cute, the doiley is from Tim Holtz I think it had the perfect touch.  I was trying to go for cool cute summer theme. I had in mind of putting a picture of someone eating ice cream, maybe even a cute yorkie.  My babies love ice cream. 
Well thanks for stopping in and visiting
Have a wonderful day

Friends Layout

Happy Tuesday,
I am excited because today I will be attending CHA. I will get to meet some friends I have made thru crafting. I feel I have made some great friends. I cant wait to see what the goodies.   For my project today I made a layout for a friend of mine who just adopted a cute fur baby. Her name is Annie she is adorable she is the one who is turning her head.  I left her spot next to the picture for journaling. I used my sizzix die for that. When I saw this picture I thought it would be cute on a layout and I used the colors from the pillow for the foundation for my layout.  The cute stamps on my lay out are from The Scrapbooking Queen  release Royal Friends.  You can use these stamps on anything, I thought they would be perfect on this picture.

I made my own little banners for the stamped sentiments


Well Thank You for stopping in and visiting and drop in and pickup some stamps from her Royal Heiness. I put a picture of the stamp set I used. 
I will see if can post pictures to my blog or my Facebook page while I  am at CHA. If I cant I will have to do it when I get back home.
Thanks for dropping by

Happy Birthday Card

Happy Tuesday
today for my blog post, I am sharing a Birthday Card I had made for my mother, I used The Scrapbooking Queen stamps, and Graphic 45 paper, I love their paper. I just love the vintage images they come out with.  I wish sometimes I could go back in time from 1900-1940's, life moved slower, there were hard times. I also like the 1880 the women of south had beautiful dresses, I cant imagine wearing them in the summer time.   Oh well back to my project, stamp sentiment on front of the card is from the Scrapbooking Queen stamp set The Princess Birthday,  paper Graphic 45 Ladies Diary Collection, I also used my new Cricut cartridge Banners I love this cartridge and how this card came out. I cut out some flowers from the paper and put them on top of the banner, and inside the card, also cut the banner and put on the inside of the card,




Well I hope my mom likes her card, I love how it turned out.
I want to Thank You for dropping in and visiting my blog. Have a wonderful day,
