Fun in Dallas

 My husband bought me a trip to Dallas for Christmas this year.  We went and saw the Sacramento Kings beat the Dallas Mavericks there.  So fun.  I did two sets of pages.  The first is Sidekick-sized that will go into the Adventures of Him and Me album: 



The second one is for my Planner Essentials regular sized album that I have to trips that I have made various places.  



It was a quick trip, but we had an amazing time!

Craftily yours, Karen

Duckies are Amazing

 Today, I pulled out the Ducks set from the Cute & Whimsical line at Elizabeth Craft Designs for this thank you card for a friend at work who has done some extra things lately, and I am sending her a card to let her know I see.


The little sentiment is from a pre-printed sentiment pack I had. The rest of the products are linked up below.

Older and Better

I just love this sweet little Caterpillar from the Cute & Whimsical Collection at Elizabeth Craft Designs. The paper is from the new  Harmonious Hodgepodge collection!  (The sentiment isn't a stamp, rather it was a cutout of a paper pack from my stash...)

Thanks a bunch for stopping by today!

Hoppy Birthday Frog

 I am loving the new Cute & Whimsical Collection from Elizabeth Craft Designs. Today, I put together Freddy the Frog for a Hoppy Birthday card!


The sentiment is also from Elizabeth Craft Designs - from the Jungle Sentiments set.  Most of the paper is from Reminiscence Book 5.  Products are linked up below.  Putting together these critters is so easy when you first use some double sided adhesive before die cutting, at least for the pieces on top!  You can easily find all these products at Elizabeth Craft Designs.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Pink Bee

 My daughter-in-law's baby shower is today. I'm so excited for the new granddaughter that will be coming into my life, and I'm excited to celebrate my daughter-in-law today.  The guests were asked to not wrap all the presents, but I still wanted to make it a little special, so I got a big pink bow and made a pink bee tag!


What?!  Could that pink bee be any cuter?!?  The theme of the shower is "As Sweet As Can Bee" - so it's perfect!  Here it is on the present.  The "My Grandparents Love Me" book is the card.


Thank you for stopping by! Products from Elizabeth Craft Designs are linked up below.

Birthday with a Squirrel

 I pulled out the Squirrel from the Cute & Whimsical collection at Elizabeth Craft Designs for an adorable birthday card! (even if I do say so myself!)


The paper is part of the Garden Party collection, and I thought the pretty flowers were a perfect place for Mr. Squirrel to sit :)  All available from Elizabeth Craft Designs

Pastel & Sweet

 Hi Everyone! 

I created the following scrapbook pages using the Cute & Whimsical and the Planner Essentials lines from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  





The pages are part of an album of my granddaughter that I made for my daughter-in-law for Christmas! Her family had gone on this safari, and the Cute & Whimsical line Zebra and Monkeys were perfect in pastel! So fun.  The pictures are a blurred since it's my granddaughter's mom's family, and I didn't want to post their pictures without their permission.  

Craftily yours,  Karen

RoadTrip Memories

 I keep a Planner Essentials "Sidekick" scrapbook for my adventures with my dear hubby. One of our 2023 adventures was a road trip with our dog. I'm scrapbooking it for my travel book, but I wanted to also put the adventure into our album.


So much fun using the adorable Liam the Moose (just his head!) as an embellishment.  The supplies I used from Elizabeth Craft Designs are linked up below.

Thank you for stopping by!

All About the Grand

 I've been doing some Elizabeth Craft Designs Planner Essential Pages about one of my favorite people, the Grand.  She is actually my step grand, but I just adore her so. I used circles to cover her face (sorry) because she is not my wee one to show off.

This first one uses the Planner Essentials 41 for the page base and I added some Strawberry die cuts as well as some fun rick-rack I had in my stash.  I love the leaf reinforcments.



The next page is all about when my husband met the wee one. She was only a few days old. I saw the leaf edge from someone on the Planner Essentials Facebook Group and added some flowers from the Florals 9 to mine. The page base here is from the Planner Essentials 56 set, and I used some Fitted and Stitched Circles for the text.
