MDS Tuesday

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Tuesday !!!

If there is one thing I enjoy on my free time, it's working on some scrapbook pages that highlights our trip. I usually do about 24 pages and once I am done I have them printed. I then placed a CD holder in the back of the page and placed the CD of the whole trip. This is just one way of me organizing our pictures and at the same time capturing some of our valuable memories together.
Hope you like it.

Heartfelt Frame

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Sunday !!!

I wanted to share this frame that I did using the Heartfelt from the Sale-a-bration. I really did not feel like turning it into a banner but framing it worked for me...perfectly. Instead of adding pictures, I used the sayings from the Perfect pennants stamp set. I added the flower using the spiral flower die and the cork flower from the Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack. Hope you like it.
