More Amy Tangerine!

I love the SpringTime…and I love it even more when it comes way earlier than expected. Spring gets me thinking about lots of outdoor time, spending time with family, sunshine, and putting my clothes on the line to dry!! LOVE that!

It also gets me thinking about spring vacations! We went on a trip to Mexico last spring and it was a blast! So much heat, swimming, pooltime, and family time! Sara brought her camera with her and captured many moments of this vacation herself! Of course, I took a picture of her, taking a picture! lol

What better way to document vacation time with these delicious goodies by Amy Tangerine from LCOM!!! LOVE playing with this stuff!

See how I stitched around my paper pieces? This was a definite quilting inspiration!

Check out these Amy Tangerine goodies! See how well them match together!! LOVE so much!

And such bright colors that the black and white photo just pops!!

Happy Snow Day….

Well, Isn’t it ironic that I’m posting this summery layout on this….a snow day! lol I guess I’m just a little anxious for winter to be over and for summer to come quickly! Hopefully the snow we’re getting today does not last long…..hopefully….

I created another layout this week using fabulous goodies from LCOM! LOVE that online store!! It’s the best place to shop for all your scrappy needs, you know!

Bundled in Style

Ok…so it might be very cold here in Atlantic Canada, but who says you can’t stay warm in style? These little animal hats are all the rage now-a-days, and I love my daughter’s kitty cat one!

Christmas Jammers

Merry Christmas to everyone today! We're actually celebrating Christmas day TODAY!

That's the life of a family with an nurse!! I'm actually working all day tomorrow and Christmas Day...so we decided to have our celebrations today! How fun!

And today you have the privilege of seeing my first LO in about 3-4 weeks! What's funny is that when I went to use my cutter last night....it was DUSTY!! Lol

I guess that's a hint that I need to use it more?? ;o)

Anyway, I created this LO last evening and I used Fancy Pants St Nick paper  Fancy Pants St Nick paper and the rubons too! I used some twinery twine too....and, of course, AC Thickers! All of these goodies can be found at the LCOM Shop!  

Here is my LO I made! Hope you enjoy it and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a joyful New Year!!

PAPER Trees!

Do you hand make paper crafts to place in your home for Christmas decorating?

I do…occasionally. And my girls are pretty crafty too! That’s why when they made these Christmas paper trees, I needed to take a picture and scrapbook this layout(I bet you thought I was going to share the trees, right? lol)

You can see in pictures on this page that they were quite excited about their finished product! Their trees are now in each of their rooms as part of their own room Christmas decor!

(photos taken on my iPhone…)

I used a BUNCH of LCOM supplies on this page!

All of the supplies listed can be found at the LCOM store!

I used:

~ Studio Calico Memoire paper

~ Amy Tangerine AC thickers!

~ October Afternoon sticker letters

~ Bakers twine from the Twinery
