Another Good Photo!

This child is HARD, HARD, HARD to photograph. She is NEVER still and always seems to turn her head just as the flash goes off! How to fix this problem??? Dress her up and then tell her you want a photo...she loves to show off hats, etc. Her Mama tied her hair up with a scarf and got several excellent shots!!!

Picking Photos for Projects


I do not scrap ALL my photos. I pick the ones I just love. Sometimes it takes 25 pictures to get the one that is just perfect. My grandson has these huge eyes and the camera caught them at the right moment!

Crop Addict Lyrics Challenge




I just learned how to make these wonderful pinwheel flowers! They are so easy after you get the hang of it. Just make circles and fold in half. Then fold the circle sides up toward the flat side. Make sure you overlap in the same direction for each petal. Make sure you use double sided paper and ink for dimension. Glue them down on a circle and you have your flower.

An Attitude of Gratitude Mini Book





Most of the paper in this project is Basic Grey Two Scoops. Delicate in pink and aqua colors, it is perfect for "girly" projects. Chipboard is covered and then embellished.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness. Girls, get those Mammograms done.

Easy to Make Birds


These birds are made of three pieces....a large teardrop for the body, a heart for the wing, and a small teardrop with a crooked point for the head. Add the eye and a little beak. Inking or chalking the edges gives dimension.
