Hey Friends...well i completed another scrapbook page. I have to tell you if i didn't have help from our local photo metro store (aka Kim) i don't think I'd get anything on a page. I find it easy peasy to do cards but a full 12x12 page frightens me.....mind you anything with pattern makes me scared in my boots...as you can tell i very seldom use much patterned paper....but i seem to have a shelf full of patterned paper. huh.....what's with that???? Hope you enjoy, this is my favorite picture of my grand baby....ohhhhh i love and miss her lots...

Skin: Blush, Soft Peach, and Spice
Cupcake: Baby Pink, Antique Pink, Sky Blue, and Royal Blue

I hope you enjoy it,,,,for me any celebration involves eating CAKE!!yummmmm

Hey Crafters, I've been away this weekend visiting my grand baby...i miss her already. I had soooo much fun. She's growing so fast, i can hardly keep up to the changes. What a sweetheart. Keep posted as I'll be adding more scrapbook pages to her album...


On another note, I've completed a new style of card. I like how this turned out. Half the front of the card is missing and the flower is hanging over between the front and back. I'm entering my pink stamper challenge. We had to use black and our favorite color. Of course mine is blue...Hope you like.http://http//www.mypinkstamper.com/2011/02/my-pinkalicious-blog-hop-friday.html
