A Winner and Eye Candy!

Hi Folks! I have a winner of the free seat to my online class Scrapbooking with Punches and Die-Cuts! Barb Turpin, if you don't already know, you won! Thanks so much to everyone for your interest! Class starts August 3rd if you'd like to sign up! You don't have to be there the first day or any of the days I actually post the class. I'll be there for questions and feedback and for at least a couple weeks after the class finishes up! You will have access to the class material for an unlimited time so it doesn't go away after the class ends, it will be there hanging out for you! :)

And because I haven't posted anything to look at for awhile, here is some creations full of love. The first layout was created for one of my bestest buddies ever! Oh how I love this girl! She and her Hubby have continually inspired me to strive and work at my marriage. For those married, it's not that easy at times, it takes lots of work! Am I right? These two serve as a constant reminder of how to stay thoughtful, how to understand each other, and an example of immense loyalty. I love these two with all my heart.

My dear S and T if you're reading this, I love you guys so much! Thank you for bringing both of those beautiful babies into this world. I love your two rug-rats with all my heart and am so honored I am blessed with you all in my life.

And this next card was very fun to create. I think my favorite part is the dotting of liquid pearls behind that glittered fairly. Such a fabulously textured card! For supply lists of the next two creations, just click on the photos and you will be brought to my Flickr account which has supplies listed!

This third project is actually a hybrid layout. Most of it is digitally created and I went in and added buttons and bling, liquid pearl smatterings and some fun flower trim! If you don't want bulky pages, this is the way to go! And in this day and age of skimping and saving, digital creating is a viable option. Buy a digital kit and you can use it over and over and over. Think of all the moolah you can save! Create hybrid or fully digital layouts. I'm so happy I explored Digi!
