Another CSF Swap!!

I was in two groups of this swap. A Christmas Group, and a Thanksgiving group.
Each group had to have 2 embellished tags, 2 plain tags, 2 embellished slide mounts, 2 plain slide mounts, 2 embellished deco squares, 2 plain deco squares, and a surprise item. Here are pics of the embellished items.


I quilled the candy canes on the slide mounts. The other candy canes are stamped.


I made the leaves on the tags out of wire. There is smaller gold toned wire on the deco squares, and the slide mounts. But it's hard to see in the pic.

Now to just get some scrapping done!!

Colors of Spring Swap

My contribution: 1 6x6 square of plain yellow paper, 1 6x6 square of patterned paper, 1 journal box, 1 tag, yellow ribbon, and gold eyelets.

The title page for My Book of Me. The background paper is a textured flower paper with torn mulberry paper.



My name page. My name and it's attributes written in my handwriting on patterned vellum. With gold eyelets, a little silk flower, and gold floss.

I used the words to the song "He's My Son" by Mark Shultz for this layout about Calen.

My first shaker box AND my first time using eyelets.


I got the idea for this lay out from a Disney idea book. There was not pattern, just a pic of the layout. I made a pattern for these buildings, from the pic, as well as modifying it to match my pictures. The brick sidewalk is also pieced.





My first paper piece!

This page was the first page that I did with the Disney pics. These pictures were taken on the Jungle Cruise.

DH copied Goofy's signature from the autograph book for this. You can't tell here, but those are pictures of us on the roller coaster.



This is Miss Merry tucking the kids into bed. Miss Merry is the Mayors wife at Give Kids The World Village. Did I mention that Mayor Clayton is a 6 foot tall rabbit?
