Cards for Claudia

I was sadden when I first heard of Claudia's loss of her husband. The first thing I thought to myself where her six children. One can never expect something as devastating as losing your beloved one. I met Claudia through You Tube and she's the sweetest lady ever. My heart goes out to her and her children. When I watched Jade's(YouTube Jadedstudios) video and seen what a sweetheart she was to put this fundraiser together to raise money for Claudia. With everything going on, I wasn't sure if I was able to complete the cards on time. Then, Natalie and I had watched Jade's second video and Natalie said to me, "Mom, I want to make cards for Claudia". If you only knew how touched I was. Natalie as you probably known her as "keeponscrappin" on YouTube hasn't done any paper crafting in months. I couldn't even sleep that night because I was SO excited and touched. I knew then, I had to make time to create these cards for Claudia. We worked on our cards all morning. We each had to create ten of the same cards then send it to Jade. Once she receives all the cards, she will then take a card from each person and create a pack of ten cards and post them for sale on her blog. Thank you so much Jade for putting this together. Please be sure to stop by her blog and purchase a set of cards.

Bieber Fever Layout

Here I created a layout of the girls at the Justin Bieber Concert we had gone to last weekend. For the banner I used My Favorite Things Die-namics Banner Day Die to create the Bieber Banner. Also using the Die-namics Jumbo Scallop Die, I created a border below the photo. The Banner Day Die is one of my favorite dies to create projects with.

Altered Pencil Box

I altered a pencil box to hold all my handmade flowers that were given from all the gorgeous RAKS I received from all the wonderful ladies I met on YouTube. I used
Baby Bump Ribbons from My Favorite Things ribbon collection.
