ACOT's February Card Challenge

Wow I can't believe it's February already! It's a new month and that means a new set of monthly challenges at A Cherry On Top. Be sure and check out all the February challenges!
This is my card challenge: Create a Valentine's Day card with a decorative edge. You can use a border punch, trace a template, or even freehand your decorative edge. I used a piece of Bazzill scallop-edged cardstock to trace my edge. Can't wait to see what you do!

Basic Grey Origins Reveal Sneak Peeks!

For my CT reveal at ACOT I got to work with the awesome new Origins line from Basic Grey. This line is so amazing and I had a blast with it! I couldn't wait for my reveal so I had to post some sneak peek photos to share with you. Remember to check back on February 2nd for my full reveal and article.

W R Memory Keepers MVP

I took these pictures of my son, Erik this past summer. It was his first time playing catcher and he loved it!! I was totally scared when I first saw Erik heading out to home plate because he looked so small in all of that padding. LOL! But he did a great job. I loved the photo on the left so much that I had to blow it up to a 8x12 and then on the right side I used 3 smaller photos and a journaling card. I haven't made a two page layout in awhile. Takes for stopping by and looking! :)

Prima CT Reveal

I got to work with two of Prima's newest paper lines for my CT at A Cherry On Top and I loved it!! Both the Blooming Retro and Wink lines are beautiful and so fun to work with. And of course I "had" to add all sorts of beautiful Prima flowers to my layouts too. Please check out my Prima reveal article HERE for details and close-up photos. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Bo Bunny Love Bandit

I have always been a huge fan of Bo Bunny and my credit card feels the blow with each of their new releases. I usually find it hard to pick a favorite line from all the new releases but this time the Love Bandit line called out to me. I totally love all the cute little critters, the colors and patterns are fantastic and all of the little sayings are darling. I love it ALL!!!
Here are the six layouts I created for my CT reveal at A Cherry On Top. Be sure and check out the rest of my CT Reveal Article HERE!

My Sketch World - December Card Sketch

Because of the holidays there is only one card sketch at My Sketch World for December. Lucy Chesna had the design team design a card with a winter, holiday or New Year's theme. I decided on a Christmas theme because I have lots of Christmas cards I need to make.


Here's my Christmas card!
