Been busy as a bee lately...





The Farmer's Market has finally opened, keeping me busy as a bee.... I take my handmade cards and other paper crafts there to sell... also take special orders for cards & might even have one for a scrapbook! Things are moving right along...
Also been scrapping quite a bit. I love doing that...it's my "therapy"! lol
Thought I'd show a little of my work since I haven't posted in a while...
Hope everyone is having a nice summer!
till next time.....

Recipe and Address Books
















Been making some "different" projects to sell at the Farmer's Market this year... Found an easy cute way to make recipe books on somebody's Blog... You use regular recipe cards; decorate a front & back and then bind it up! Address book is basically the same way... I made a form in my print shop to use inside it... Here's what they look like!

Haven't posted in awhile.....











But that doesn't mean I haven't been busy! Still been scrapping a lot plus making cards... Speaking of, I finally sold a card in my etsy shop!! I was so excited as I opened it in February, thinking I would never sell anything, with as many shops as there is out there! Was very excited when I sold a birthday card! It was one with a huge sunflower on the front and a little lady bug sitting on top of it... Made my day! here are some of the things I've been creating....

Spring flower layouts




Was in the scrappin' mood today and did a couple of layouts that I took in the early spring when Buster & I went out for a little walk around the yard. I love it when the daffodils & hyacints start blooming, showing you that the long winter is finally over and spring has sprung!
I did these for challenges over at Scrap Sisters...
am almost out of pictures believe it or not, but never fear! I have some coming in the mail! lol It's a good thing that my daughter & granddaughter take lots of good pictures coz there's only so many layouts I can do of Buster! :)
Have a scrappin' good day!

been scrapping up a storm....




Easter layouts... Been working on all of the kids' pictures they took Easter... I didn't take any, so have to "steal" theirs to have something to scrap of the grandkids! :)
The first layout is made with my April Paper Posies kit.... love getting that kit!
I got an awesome new monthly kit from creative scrapbooking! I love it, too! It's all about lots of feminine flowers & lace & the paper is gorgeous! The second layout is a layout made from my first kit from them.... don't know how long I can afford to get both kits every month, but I'm loving while I can!
Have a scappin' good day!

Did this layout for a sketch at Twisted Sketches. This is my grandson's girlfriend, Ashley. She is a very sweet girl, already like a part of our family!
