Love You Much layout

Lately, I have decided that I need to focus on what I love, scrapbooking, so I can get some stuff done. If you scrapbook you probably deal with the same feeling I do of always being behind, however, I feel like I keep getting more and more behind lately! It's time for me to buckle down and get to it! Anyway, here is one of the layouts I did this week. This is based on a layout that my friend Nancy over at Fancy with Nancy designed. I tweaked it a little but it's pretty similar to her original design. I am in love with this stamp set now from Stampin UP! and I love how the colors go so well together.

Supplies Used:

Stamps: Stampin UP! Inspired by Nature and Well Scripted

Paper: Stampin UP! Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Melon Mambo

Ink: Stampin UP! Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, and Pink Passion

Sizzix: Stampin UP! Top Note die

Halloween Treat Bags

This year for Halloween I really wanted to use my cricut and create something fun for my daughter's treat bags using mini monsters, however after giving my daughter the book and letting her pick out two monsters (she picked out at least ten), I realized I needed to par down my ambitions and do something easier. As you can see from the photo we chose a few different things to cut and I love how they came out. Ava signed a few of them but realized that signing her name on 31 of them was going to be a little too hard, (she is 4). Luckily, I have a stamp that says "made by Ava" so I stamped that on the back of them. Technically she filled the bags and I just made the tags:-).

My Little Crafter

My daughter has been getting more and more into crafting as she gets older. It remains to be seen if she will be into like I am but I do love the times she wants to do a project with me or on her own. The other day we went to Joann's (so I could use my 50% off coupon of course!) and she saw this cute sunflower that she could paint herself and she had to have it! At one point she almost picked out a smaller one with a princess and a castle on it but she decided to go with the sunflower in the end. When we got home we got out the paint, went outside, and got to painting! I was so proud of her for doing such a good job!
