This week at CropStop is all about babies, so I wanted to share this page with you all! (no new baby, this is my belly for Bianca) I love how simple it is, and who needs journaling on a page like this? So come and join us this week at CropStop’s challenge #58.

This CatWalk is soft and elegant and so winter like! There are tons of new CatWalk products to make into a SUPERB COLLAB. That is what I love the most about CatWalks how you can mix and match from different kits and products and designers and come up with something so UNIQUE and so YOU. I picked 3 CatWalk items: la Belle Époque by mellybird Designs, Retro Winter papers by Fiddlette Designs; Enchanted Winter kit by Fiddlette Designs. I also added one of my favorite alphas from my CatScrap stash: Traces of Print by Catrine.
In real life I love paper and I should say I collected it when I did traditional scrapbooking. Now in digi-land I just love kits with gorgeous papers and textures, This page started with the Enchanted Winter blue paper with the pink flowers. I immediately saw the text print element that Fiddlette added and I HAD to use it, to add even more interest and texture to this gorgeous paper. I added the text, changed it’s color to one from the palette and then applied a blending mode to the text. I made sure the text was visible but it will not make my journaling hard to read. I followed the pink flowers flow to add more elements following the same placement as the paper already had introduced. This is the page that I came up with, our first snow of this year.
I have made both a title and a no-title version in case you would like to use this QP with a different title.
PLEASE download the TOU so you know what is allowed and what is not, I was not able to include it in the ZIP file due to size limits.

Hi everyone! This week at CWC you have to make something that is NOT a card, it has to have yellow and polka dots. Now, let’s just start by saying my polka dots are not traditional polka dots, but they make these cute little flowers, but just in case I picked a cut from the cricut that had some polka dots cut into and I doodle around them. As soon as the gals posted the challenge I knew I was going to make a bookmark. Why? Well, because I needed one, using my daughter’s bookmark didn’t seem right while reading a romance novel. LOL!!!

Hi everyone! I am playing along w/ some of the gals from Cooking with Cricut and Paper Crafting World Challenges on the 25 days of Crafting Fun! Day 3 is all about: Christmas Elf, Santa’s Helpers, Workshop. I had to choose this day, because my little one is into her own Elf on a shelf, but hers is named CHINEY. She loves her Elf and I thought she might love this elf too. The elf is resting in my daughter’s advent calendar. You can even see a bit of our TINY xmas tree w/ the 3 kings and our mantel w/ some of the xmas stockings.
Have fun and join us for a chance to some amazing prizes and remember there are daily freebie downloads.
I am using on of Melinda’s SVG cuts, this adorable little Elf (QT Patootie Girl Elves Cutting File Set). I just love her braids!
supplies: Making Memories Green polka dot paper and White Eyelet paper, American Crafts Brown and tan cardstock.
