I am finally starting to get some scrapbooking done here and there. I found this picture in my craft room and decided to get it done. I started with this wonderful piece of paper and the design just took on a life of its own. I matted the picture with a cut from Elegant Edges and then a small doily. I then reached for my Pagoda cart as I knew there was a nice blossom on there that matched my paper. Wow, did it ever! I was tickled pink! I then added some more flowers from my Prima stash. It just needed that extra kick. I then added some stickers and brads. Yep, that was better, but still not enough. I added a layer of ribbon to the bottom, and then another, and attached them with the Tim Holtz mini staples. Well, now the top of the page needed something. So, I grabbed my MS Elegant cake cart and made the top border. I then needed to anchor it, so I added a ribbon there as well. Ah, much better! I added the "Celebrate" bling and it felt complete. Wow, am I slow at scrapbooking but I love the results!

Run for the Border!
I made this Thank you card for my sister. She made me a very lovely mini album. I liked the Tim Holtz distressed sticker with these two girls on it and chose it for my beginning. Since I know my sister likes mini envelopes, I made one from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More. Yep, she loved it and immediately asked which cart I made it from! lol! I also wanted to put a border on it so I could use it for the Cricut Weekly Challenge. The border and "Thanks!" is from Martha Stewart Elegant Cakes. The flower is made from Flower Shoppe cart. I made the card antique looking because that is what we are! lol!
