Cake stamp set

Hey paper peeps! In honor of my birthday month I just released a new CAKE themed stamp set in my Etsy shop! I love cake so much, (ok I love all sweets) and I've always loved this cute rhyme, "bake me a cake as fast as you can!" So of course a stamp set had to be made lol! And look at those cute sprinkles eek!

I love playing around with different colored inks on my projects! This one is a Tim Holtz Oxide Ink, Pine Needles. It's up there as one of my faves for sure! I thought it's be fun to pull out the color of the strawberry leaves :) 

Look at these darling dipped berries ugh! I just love them! 

This darling plaid paper is by Pinkfresh Studio, it's one of my favorite papers by them I just love the colors! 

What is your favorite ink to stamp with and why? I'd love to hear! 

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have an happy scrappy day!

happy anniversary mom and dad!

Heyyy paper peeps! Hope you all are doing well in these crazy times! I so miss walking through antique stores and flea markets, treasure hunting is the best! One day when I was strolling through an antique store I found this adorable vintage Hallmark photo album that says Showers of Happiness on the front. It was only $2.00 booyahhh! So of course being the hoarder that I am I grabbed it, and I'm so glad I did! It became my parents wedding album! They've been married 46 years wowza!
All I did to jazz up the cover was add a chipboard word and striped marquee love washi tape by Heidi Swapp!

I used a mixture of products, it was so fun!

Look at how cute this cake is!

 I am so thankful for photographs! Looking at them is like going back in time and being with these loved ones all over again. 

What is your favorite treasure that you've ever scored at an antique store?
Thanks for stopping by and have a happy scrappy day! 

Best Day layout

Hey there paper peeps! Recently I have discovered a new love for cut files! Everyone said "ohmygosh it's going to change the way you scrapbook" and holy cow they were right! I can't believe I let my Silhouette Cameo sit there for 2 years before I dove in eek! I was a little skeered... but now I learned how to use it and am totally hooked! Cut files have given me a new fresh love for 12x12 layouts, sometimes I struggle so much with them, but with cut files it makes it sort of easy for me for some reason? Maybe cuz they can fill up lots of space?  Here I cut 2 large leafy ones, sponged a little Tim Holtz Evergreen Bough paint on them and slapped them on my layout. Super simple! 

I also hid some journaling in the leaves, I love using my typewriter for journaling and then nestling the snippets into places.. 

Do you do anything artsy fartsy with your die cuts? Thanks for stopping by, have a lovely day!
