wacky wednesday # 57

This week for Wacky Wednesday over at More Than Favors it is ANYTHING GOES week. That would have to be my favorite, because the Sky is the limit on what you can create. So feel free to make something and post it over there.

SO my LEAST favorite thing to make is a scrapbook layout. I know it sounds crazy but just the thought makes me want to throw in the towel when it comes to crafting. I can count on 1 hand how many layouts I have made. But the other day while I was supposed to be packing for our Anniversary get away ( it was our 13th Anniversary on the 16th of this month) I had an Idea for a scrapbook page, so I stopped packing and made this :




So I got an all in one Scrapbook kit at Big Lots and I only got it because of the cute little animals. I never intended to do anything with it lol.  So For this lay out I sued stuff that came with the set. And Twine from the Twinery. and that is all. Simple but not so much for me, who hates layouts. I hope you enjoy :D

Wacky Wednesday

This week over at More than Favors the theme is Treat Boxes.  My 10 yr old helped me put together this one, He was so proud of himself.



 We used mini monsters for the holder. Its box one out of the 3 you can choose from. The paper I used is double sided paper I got out of my 12X12 paper box, I have no idea who made it because it had no name on it at all. I thought it was monster worthy :D The stamp is a 97 cent Studio G stamp I picked up at Walmart, and I used my Tim Holtz Distress ink pad for the Ink and the ribbon is American crafts ribbon :D I hope you check out what Gloria made this week, as always it is AMAZING. Also feel free to create and submit something you made for a chance to win a awesome prize :D Thanks

One more Birthday Card I forgot about :D


Dcwv paper of course.
Micheals Bling
NOT AGAIN!!! I don't know where the Ice cream came from.. Sweet Treats maybe????
Plain paper is from Joanns.

Sorry I can't remember anything today. I think it's the old age lol.

A Mothers Day card I made




Paper: DCWV (stack 7) I think.
Cartridge:... I want to say Simply Charmed
Flower: Basic Grey
Jewels: Micheals
Ribbon: after xmas clearance at Bi-Mart

My very first Fathers Day Card.



I am so not good at making manly cards. But I tired. I used background paper from the DCWV Guy Stack, and the rest were all scraps. The bakers twine is from the Twinery and the stamps are from Stampin up. The inside says Happy Fathers Day also a Stampin Up set. ( gasp! no cricut on this one either)

Birthday card number 4






This was fun to make. It was my first time using Bakers twine from the Twinery, the button is from My minds Eye and the cut is from Create a Critter. The background paper is from DCWV , Stack 7 and the blue is from Joanns. Inside says Happy Birthday. :D

My birthday is in 19 days :D



This was another card for the Birthday Order. I don't know who made the double sided paper that I used, I have had it since I first started crafting. The Twine is from the TWINERY <3 them. The stamp is from Stampin up. <3 and I used no Cricut machine of any kind. I'm so proud of myself :D

Happy Birthday !

All DCWV paper of course :D I really honestly can not remember where I cut the flower from :( That has NEVER happened to me before..... eeek. I used a black gelly roller for the doodling and a jewel from Micheals. I will update when I figure out what one of my 50 carts that cut came from ... lol
