This isn't really my style card because it involved such a big stamp, but I like how whimsical it is. My daughter kept coming into my craft room to make sure it was to her liking because she is very "knowledgeable" on fairies. She picked it apart and suggested adding this and that and I finally got her seal of approval!

Enjoy the Summer! Fun Roller Skating! A page from my Mini Album!

While on vacation in 2011 we all went roller skating. It had been years since I have last skated but we all had such a great time. I was amazed that my girls were able to put on skates and just take off! I am one page closer to finishing my album! 
 I love how fun this tag came out!







I am really enjoying orange lately! It is turning out to be a perfect summer color!

Happy Birthday! Fun Circus Seal Card!

I have a stack of cards from when I first started crafting that need a make over! (Hoarder). Over the years I have learned new techniques and acquired lots of supplies. I finally decided to pick one and make it over using my new style and my supplies!






My Before:

My After:

I love it! I think it looks completely different! 
Since the card was so old the pops dots had dried up, so I was able to take most the card apart. Then I punched new circles and added my touches. Then put it all back together. I think it took me longer to re-do this card because I was working with the basic lay-out already in place.

Seal from Create a Critter
1/2" Circle punch
