Busy as a "Bee".
It has been awhile since I have made a post, life has been hectic but good. I have still been crafting though and want to share a project I have been working on.
When Graphic 45 released its Ladies Diary paper line recently I really wanted to find some way to show it off. The colors are some of my favorites! I had a 3 drawer what not box I got on a clearance table at a local department store so I got to work. After lots of layering fun I made some flowers for accent and added some G45 metal butterfly's, some vintage buttons for drawer knobs and a touch of ribbon.
We still have this line in stock at Paper Mermaids.

It's a "Boy".
I started carrying Authentique paper in my store last month and I love it! I started with the Miracle Collection kits for boys and girls. I have been using the boy kit and it contains so much product (paper assortment and embellishments) I have created a shadow box frame, several cards and so I decided to make a mini book (6" x 6") that is 5 pages and has a page for a picture for each month of the new babies life up to 6 months and some extras.
All I needed to add was a few buttons, rhinestones, rings and some ribbon. What a great gift idea.

The Ride of Your Life
This Mini book was created with the SEI Fair Day paper collection. There is room for lots of pictures. With Spring break, state and county fairs and Summer vacations just around the corner this book could be a special keepsake.

Happy Birthday Liz!
My daughter was invited to a sleepover birthday party. She said her friend loved panda bears so I broke out my Cricut create a critter cartridge and made this bag and tag. Rachel got her a stuffed Panda with a baby Panda on its back and we also made her a altered journal to write her special thoughts. Happy Birthday Liz!

My Miracle
I created this 8x8 shadow box frame using the Authentique baby boy Miracle paper line. I found the colors to be soft and workable with lots of project ideas. The picture is of my son who is now 23 years old! It was sure fun breaking out that picture, remembering what a miracle a new baby is and what joy this young man has brought to my life. I am pleased to give this photo a great place to be enjoyed!
