Grandma's Love


This is a photo of my daughter Kati and her grandma (my MIL) at the beach when we went to Maine. They are so close to each other. I cut the edges of the layout myself and inked and stitched them. Sorry for the bad scan..the edges got cut off a bit! Everything here is Basic Grey leftover from the last card kit over at Treasured Scrapbooking. You sure get your mileage out of these kits! I highly recommend them. The Love stamp and big photo corner are Heidi Swapp.

Journaling:
Kati loves her grandma Kathy and has had a special bond with her since she was born. She would go right to her and want to be held. (even when she was tiny) Kati loves her "mugga". (That's what she calls her because she can't say grandma.) Maine-July 2007. LOL

Hope you are having a nice weekend! We are off to go get some ice cream at the drive inn. A big ole brownie sundae is waiting for me!

Miracle baby card


Made this little card today for the Buttons and Babies call over at Paper Crafts. Hopefully they will like it! I'm so addicted to these clear buttons..I just can't get enough of them. They are so cool. (Click on each pic to see it larger.)

The papers are KI Memories and Basic Grey. I covered a Fancy Pants chipboard heart and frame with Diamond Dust after painting them white. I love the look of sparkly things lately. So much fun.

Leave me a comment and let me know a supply you are totally addicted to lately!
