Gary and I took a short trip to California to visit his family.
With his health declining we wanted to spend what time he has left to see the people and places that mean so very much to him. Mom and sister Nancy joined us at several beaches and a pier and created some heart felt memories.

It is humbling for one who is usually on the giving side. I have started making thank you cards as a result. Here are a couple:
The top card is what I came up with when I wanted a card that I could reproduce without buying new supplies.

It has been a long time.
It has been a long time so I have alot of work that I can share. This little card is from easter but sooo, cute. I sent it to the grand kids. The fun thing about this card is the use of copic markers and matching them to papers. And I wanted to mix it up with the bunny and the monster. This would make a great bithday card too.

I used another chipboard butterfly but used Sparkles to accent the body and to indicate flight. The flight flourish and butterfly is followed through with flourishes in the background paper.

Here is what I got done for her:
This first page was an opening page from one of the conventions I went to and never had the right pics for. I added the dragon flies. The pic is muted as light as I thought I could go and still see it, then I over-layed a poem welcoming, mom's precious gift, Alys.

We had more children at our door for halloween trick or treats than I've ever seen in a neighborhood. At one point I had near a dozen children lined up at my door waiting for their next treat. We had just under 250 kids come by before I ran out of candy and turned the lights out. That was around 8pm. Wondering where all these children came from I HappyScrapp'n2Uhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15813221181324891775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125566435177845081.post-52314248477027528402010-10-23T17:25:00.001-05:002010-10-23T17:25:00.302-05:00More CKCNow for some cards. We did the inside but I finished the outside at home this weekend. This class was called "Everything about this class POPs" from SEI. This was one of their monthly kits. I think this was my least favorite class. There was one more card we did, I did one last February for Dad and Meredeth's anniversary card if you want to look back.

We were given the ribbon, brads, stickers, and papers in the class and then told to save what we cut off.

I didn't get time this weekend to play in my room with scrapbooking, but I did have an opportunity to get some cute pics at our neighborhood/street party. There was a boche game for the guys bobbing apples, pumpkin carving, and candy guessing games for the kids. Moms got a chance to talk and help the kids. Everyone had fun.

Using ordinary 5x7 envelopes and scrapbooking supplies we made this beautiful mini album. I can see this idea being reproduced with CTMH products. Hmmm! A workshop in the making.

Thursday night was a 3 hour crop where we made 6 one page layouts with instruction, then if we wanted to later in the weekend we could purchase the companion page kits. These 2 pages I did not purchase the companion pages. A 3rd one that I can't seem to get the pic to load right, I didn't care much for so I didn't complete the page as directed and later I will finish it as I like.HappyScrapp'n2Uhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15813221181324891775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125566435177845081.post-61575345254736539802010-10-05T16:51:00.006-05:002010-10-05T16:51:00.419-05:00More Thanksgiving CardsI used a level 1 cardstock to make these cards. They actually measure 4"x 5.25" instead of the standard 4.25" x 5.5" but the 1/4 inch is not missed and they still fit in the standard envelope. Why? Way less paper waste. And where you see the different papers is mostly already done in the design of the page. SO EASY!

The pumpkins are from the "Harvest Home" C1419 stamp set from Close To My Heart. The MyAcrylix stamps are so much fun.
