~Pinky's Creative Crafting Frenzy!!~

Good morning my crafty friends!!

I am so excited about creating this week and today is no different!

I have always loved and used Core'dinations papers and they are

such an amazing product I thought I would pull out some projects

I have made recently with "Core" paper and have

my own little Core'dinations Creative Frenzy! hahaha

I made this layout yesterday in a pinch.

I actually had a couple projects ready to blog but they were picked up

by the Cricut magazine so I had to do a rush job for my blog today! haha

On this layout I used the Whitewash Core'dinations paper, one of my favorites!

I love how to core shows when you tear or emboss it.

I also used my new Lori's Garden Imagine Cartridge, it matched perfectly!

I actually use the tablets of Core'dinations because that means I always

have the color I need. Have you tried the "Core" yet??

I stayed with simple elegance on this page. But I am happy with it.

I was totally crafty yesterday and I also made this all occasion card

I haven't decided if I want it to be

my Easter card or my Welcome Spring card?

I used the Whitewash paper first, I put it in my Cricut Imagine and cut the

shape for the card, then and ran it through my Cuttlebug, then I filed off

the dots a little to show the beautiful teal underneath.

Then I took the Core Couture and used my Imagine to cut the shape

slightly larger. I really wanted the BLING around the edges, it was the

perfect touch...to me anyways. :)

After I put the card together I used my I-rock and added gemstones all around.

Then I printed and cut pieces from my Lori's Garden cartridge and I

assembled the die cuts. I am so happy with the results and I love

the detail in the Whitewash papers!

Oh and I have been WAITING to share this project! :)

I had to wait 90 days because it was in a magazine, so here it is! :)

I made this Dinosaur Magnet set for my boys with the Core'dinations

Vintage Collection paper and the Dino Roar papers!

I love how much detail the Vintage paper gave the dinosaurs!!!

I ran it all through my Cricut and use a magnetic backing. My boys

LOVE this project and they still use the magnets!

I cannot believe how many times

I reach for my Core'dinations and never even realize it. I actually found over 35

projects with "Core" on them.

Thats it for me today, I hope you enjoyed my "frenzy" LOL!

I am off to prep for tonight! :)

Thank YOU for popping by to say hi!

~Life's Better With Friends!~

Good morning from beautiful TN!

With the house so quiet I am having a very creative week.

Today I have a layout I made yesterday from the Tally Scrapper

April Kit "Blooms & Wings". This kit is so dreamy, I love it!

I am so blessed with wonderful friends here in TN. I mean true blue

amazing friends, Adrienne is just one of the amazing friends I have.

You know I often think that I had such an awful childhood and life

that I believe God had blessed me in so many more ways as an adult.

Don't get me wrong, I struggle daily with intense pain and other issues

but when it comes to family and friends, my cup really is overflowing!

We all go through those ups and downs but I am so blessed to have

strong rocks beside me even in those down times.

To me...THIS is what scrapbooking is all about.

My children will look back on my pages and say "Wow she may have

not had it easy all the time but she was thankful and loved with all of her heart"

At least that's what I hope they say *wink* hehe

In reality they could say "Why the heck did she have that pink hair???" LOL

OK off to create some more today, I am feeling the mojo this week!

Don't forget yesterday's GIVEAWAY!! You still have time to enter!

Thank YOU for stopping by, I love my friends♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

~Having Fun With Scrapping, Relaxed Style!~

Good morning my crafty friends! You all amaze me!!

I was blog hopping the other day between baseball practices and

wow there is some major talent out there!

I have so much fun scrapping and I never take it seriously.

For me my scrapbooking is a diary of my life and the life of my loved ones.

Today is the same...

At Tally Scrapper we play Survivor and we have so much fun with it.

This week the challenge was from Nikki and she challenged us to use

a Z-Word title that could only be 3 words....well it just so happens her

last name is ZIMMER!

So I had fun with it and took this VERY mischievous photo

*don't worry I edited it for anyone who might be offended!*

and made this layout that is titled (with ONLY 3 words LOL)

Zimmer, Nikki Sucks! hahaha

Don't worry I told her about it before I made it and we had a great laugh!

I love the layout and its going to be a fantastic memory when

I look back at my pages!

Sorry if I offended anyone, I just had to share! :)

If you want to see the unedited version head on over to Tally,

and point me while you are there! LOL This is a contest I can't win you know

so any points are appreciated! LOL

of humor with me and bearing with my silly scrap fun! :)
