My poor husband had a rough year in 2013. The bike incident was the second of two incidences that left him in the ER with broken bones.

Papers are from Chap by American Crafts. The journaling card is from Basic Grey.

daddy loves me

This layout was for a Progressive Challenge at Memorable Seasons in August but I had given up on Step 2. I lose. No points for me.

I finally finished it at a crop in October. I'm slow this year.
I'm pretty sure the papers are from Pink Paislee? I used Spellbinder dies to cut the ornaments, inked the edges, and finished with Diamond Stickles. The diamond shaped die cuts are leftovers from my Cricut days. I used a Micron pen to doodle some detail.

best game ever

Most papers are from Echo Park All Star Mini Theme. I used a die cut negative from Wendy to pen in the chevron arrows. The ruler is an old rub on from October Afternoon.

air mail

In the days of Skype and Facebook, I thought it would be interesting to document how my parents stayed in touch while my dad served in the Army. Phone calls were very expensive and there was no internet. They made audio tape letters and mailed them back and forth.

Papers are from FarmHouse Paper Company. Bits and pieces from Crate Paper and Basic Grey.

time with you

My son got a basketball goal from Santa for Christmas 2013. A couple of days after Christmas, I found Grammy and Grampy shootin' hoots with their grandson. They still got it!

Papers are from Fancy Pants, Echo Park (basketball), and American Crafts. The stickers are from Fancy Pants and Echo Park. The arrows were cut with my Silhouette.

My teaching partner needed a meaningful wedding gift. He had words of wisdom that he wanted to share with the groom and asked if I could make a keepsake. I picked Classic Editions papers for the masculine and household decor friendly colors. It's on CLEARANCE, y'all! Get it while you can.
In addition to the Classic Editions paper on the cover, I stamped over it with Feather Grass Flourish PreCut Set and heat embossed with a sparkly gold. The latches were die cut from Spellbinders Elegant Posts and the title piece was cut from Spellbinders Labels 4. I typed everything on the computer and printed onto cardstock and Classic Editions paper.


I made the pages 4x6 so it would be easy to print onto the Classic Editions papers.
