Kitchen Scraps

Hello Everyone,

Wow.. what a summer.  In Washington it is so unusual to have the beautiful sunshine.  We are really enjoying it.

However, Pumpkin was down with the Flu yesterday, poor thing, and it was in the 90's.  Yikes... she is such a trooper.

If you have not heard the news about My Pink Stamper (AKA - Robyn), you may want to check out her post from Wednesday.  Click HERE to read more. We Adore you My Friend.

So I put together a few 'small' projects for today to show off some sweet paper I purchased years ago.  Yep, years ago.. lol  Nothing like procrastination.

My problem is I just love looking at the designs and patterns on the paper, so cutting it up is so hard to do.  Well I finally figured out how to have my 'cake' and eat it to.


I couldn't cut up that 12 x 12 with the adorable kitchen scene.  Just too cute.  So I left it as is and layered some mats for journal space and a picture or two.  I already have the picture in mind, just need to print it.


All the fun glitter on the yummy pictures on this paper... again, I just need to show it off on this card by just cutting them into panels for a card.  And some ribbon and presto, CAS card.


Lastly, another CAS card with a sentiment from My Pink Stamper.


Perfect for this paper if you ask me.

All in all, these 3 project 5 sheets of 12 x 12 paper with lots of extra scraps for more future projects.

Hope everyone has an amazing and fun filled weekend.

Hugs,

Just Because


Hi there it's Lenae here from SugarGem! Can you believe it's August 14th already? I cannot believe how fast this summer is flying by. Today's Pumpkin Spice inspiration I used one of my favorite collections by Crate Paper to make a just because card. It's the Paper Hearts collection.  This collection actually coordinates with so many other Crate Paper collections. It's a must have! 




If I can inspire just one person today I have done my job!
