Little Scraps of Heaven Designs Halloween Blog Hop

Happy Halloween!!!

This year for Halloween we, the Little Scraps of Heaven Designs DT, decided to get together and have a Halloween Blog Hop.

If you have been following the hop and have come from Tricia's blog then you are in the right place. If you have just happened upon my blog please join us and head to Tricia's blog to start hopping with us.

Today I have made a quick door knob hanger. This was so much fun to make & so easy. I just started with a rectangle piece of cardstock. I used my Cricut to cut a 2 1/4 inch circle at the top for the door knob. For this project I used the Ghouls Night Out pattern collection. My very favorite is that red sparkly ghost purse!

You don't want to miss out on the GRAND PRIZE!!!

Fall Color Drive

Fun fall page made using patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  I used 3 patterns, the little girl is from the pattern set "Little Girl Pulling Pumpkin".  I also used "Fall Leaves" & "Tabs" patterns.

Patterned Paper is Bella Blvd-Thankful Collection.  This one is "Perfect Day".

Thanks for stopping by!

Wading in Jack's Fork River

Another page from our trip to Eminence.  These pictures are of my granddaughter wading in the river.  She LOVES the river, can't say I blame her.   I think if I lived there I would be in that river every day of the summer!  It is spring fed so very cool and so clear you can see the fish swimming.  It's very beautiful!

 



Project Life....sort of...

So, in my scrapbook I have sort of started doing a Project Life type addition to it.  Really it isn't Project Life at all but very inspired by PL.  I've got the divided page protectors and use those.  What started it all for me was the addition of another grandson last March.  His parents send me phone pictures of him and well, I can't print them very large so I started thinking of using the divided pages to make the area much smaller.  That started it :)
Now, I add lots of little things to my albums.  Things that really only need a small space like a trip out to eat with the family or folding laundry with Grandma.  I add these things to my scrapbook with the divided pages.
Another thought I have on this is that with 4 grandchildren so far this will make it easier to divide up the books.  There are some things that I add to the divided pages but then I also make a 12x12 page of.  I am thinking that the grandchild that is the main subject of the 12x12 will eventually have that page but another one of our kids might want the small bit from the PL pages for their book so they may also have a memory from that event.
I don't know maybe I'm really just making up an excuse to use all of those 6x6 paper pads I've been collecting?  LOL
Here's one of my pages I've added to my book.  This one is actually just one day for the whole page.  This is from a trip to Eminence we took this summer.  The first part of the page is pictures from our curvy drive down and then pictures from our cabin.  I loved that we actually had a room key!  I hadn't seen one of those in years, sure brought back memories.

 

The curvy road sign & the banner were both made using patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  You can find the details on our fanpage at Facebook.

I also used post cards and some cut outs from some of the brocures we collected.

 

Thanks for stopping by my blog!  I will be posting more pages soon :)

Something Sweet Card

I thought I would try the Action Wobble Challenge again this week.  I love challenges and this one looked like fun. 

  Here's the challenge...

Now for this week's challenge:

Gimme Some Sweets! 

Include a sweet treat on, or in your project.  It can be a real treat (like candy in a little treat container), sweets cut (candy, cupcakes, cake, etc.), or image.  It also must have an Action Wobble on it of course :O)

Of'course, I had to use a pattern from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  I just don't feel my projects are done until they have a paper piecing on them.  So for this one I used a pattern from the "It's on the Calendar-October" to make this cute little caramel apple...yummy!

Thanks for stopping by my blog!  Make sure you come by our fanpage at Facebook.  You will find us by searching Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  Hope to see you there.



Feeling Crabby?

Hi there! It's been way too long since I've been to my blog!  It's high time I post again so I'm starting with this little card. 

 I saw a challenge over at the Action Wobble Blog & thought it would be fun.

This challenge had to include patterned paper & fiber. 

 It also has to have an Action Wobble.

Here's what I came up with...

The best picture I could get of the Action Wobble.  

It would be better if I could have got my hands to quit wobbling!  LOL

The crab pattern is made by Little Scraps of Heaven Designs. 

 The patterned paper is My Mind's Eye-Lime Twist.  

The fiber is so old that I can't tell you anything about it.  I bet I've had it stashed for 10+ years!

Thanks for stopping by :)

Sizzlin

Just a fun page of our granddaughter.  I took this picture at the St. Louis Zoo.  We were waiting in line for the 3D ride, so she had on her funky glasses while we were waiting.

Flying HIgh

Here's  a fun page I made  using Echo Park paper and patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  The swing is from the Playground Pattern Collection & all the signs were made using the Here's Your Sign Pattern Collection.

Thanks for stopping by my blog :)

Hunter

This morning I'm sharing a page I made for the current Design Team Challenge at Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  You can find all the details & how to join at our blog.
I was watching one of Shimelle Laine's videos at YouTube and she used an accordion folder like this on her page, so I scrap-lifted that from her.

I used paper from the We R Memory Keepers "Boy Oh Boy" line.  Love these papers!
Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you will join in our challenges!!!

Crazy Cowlick

Hello!  This page makes me giggle every time I look at it!  This is my darling granddaughter, McKayla.  She has the craziest hair I have ever seen!  If you let it do what it wants to, it almost forms a perfect heart around her face!
As soon as I saw this new pattern by Tricia at Little Scraps of Heaven, I knew I would have to make this page.

Thanks for stopping by :)

New entry in my smash book

I'm trying to add more to this little book but it seems my life is so boring I don't have much to add!

5 Hours Old

Here's a page I completed last night of Hunter.  I used a couple of patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven to make this page.  I used the pacifier pattern from the Be My Baby Accessories and the label is from the Lots of Labels collection.

It's Design Team Monday!

It's Monday, again!  To make it a little bit better how about joining in our design team challenge?  You  have until next Sunday to submit your project.
This week is a sketch challenge.  Here's the sketch

This is my layout for the challenge.  This page is about my favorite blue bear.  I still have him :)

For this page I used several patterns from Little Scraps.  The bear is from the "We are Family" pattern collection.  The label is from the Lots of Labels collection.  For the flower I used the scalloped circle from the Magical Memories collection and dictionary papers.
You can find out all about this challenge at our design team blog.

Thanks for stopping by my blog :)

We have a new grandbaby!!!

His name is Hunter Lee.  He was born on March 15th, 2012.  He weighed 6 pounds 15 ounces and was 19 inches long.
I think he is just perfect :)
Here's a few pictures of our new little guy.

Vroom!

I've been taking Shimelle's class, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to Scrapbooking" & really enjoying it!
Challenge #1 was to pull out the supplies and take a picture & then to take an after picture of the finished page.
Here's my before picture...

I did pull quite a bit that I didn't use, as usual.  I also didn't have my sewing machine in the picture but planned on using it & did.  I also didn't know how to add to the picture the paper piecing I was planning to make for the page.  I did add a blue paper to stack after the picture.
Here's my finished page

I used the Boys and Their Toys car pattern for this page!  

Design Team Challenge 3/5/12-3/11/12

Oh'me~Oh'my have I ever been bad at keeping this blog up to date!  Today I'm sharing my page for this week's design team challenge at Little Scraps of Heaven Designs!

You can find all the details for this challenge & how you can join in at our design team blog.  Our challenges start every Monday!

Finally

I'm finally feeling a little bit better, only wishing I was all better!  This has been a bad winter!  The more friends I talk with, the more I hear of others around here having this same crud and they have had it for weeks, too.
I've been busy working on piecings to add to my Etsy shop.  I've ignored it for weeks since I've been sick.
I thought I would share a few sets I got finished and listed today.

The patterns for all of these piecings can be found at Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.

Thanks for stopping by!
