Happy Birthday, Honey!

Genevieve Speegle
Today is my hubby’s 30th birthday!  WHOO!
After a fun day of shopping at Paradise Pen (his new favorite store), we celebrated with pizza and Starbucks.  Our 4-yr-old even did a fabulous birthday dance in the living room.  Not too shabby.
I made Mike this cute card this morning.  I have a tradition of making him hedgehog cards for all occasions.  I loved this darling image.  🙂
I used Spellbinders dies for the shape (had to cut the black matting behind the image and yellow card stock by hand).

Chargers for the Win!

Genevieve Speegle
My father-in-law is a huge Chargers fan and I knew he was getting tickets to a game for his birthday, so I just had to make something football related.
So, what did I do?  I busted out my trusty ol’ Photoshop and got to work!  I found his profile picture from Facebook and then removed his head (wah, ha, ha ~ mad scientist laugh) and added it to this football picture I found in a google search.
Love it!  This picture makes me laugh every time!

Basic Grey Oliver Page Kit

Genevieve Speegle
I’ve been having lots of fun with the Basic Grey Oliver line lately.  I bought the card kit, collection pack and page kit for the line! 
This is the first Basic Grey page kit I’ve used and I’m really happy with it!  It was super easy to use and included lots of goodies ~ from rub-ons to chipboard!  The only items I added were thread (I did some sewing throughout), ink and buttons.
It was a fun afternoon project to do with my sister, too!  We each bought a kit and had a quick craft day together. 
I’m so glad that Basic Grey started selling page kits this year.  I’ve been a fan of their card kits for a long time, too.  I’m excited to see what they come up with next!

Back to School with Hello Kitty

Genevieve Speegle
My niece is starting the 4th grade tomorrow and I wanted to make her a special back to school card.
She loves Hello Kitty and I found this great SVG file for those of you who use Sure Cuts a Lot with your Cricut.  I added red glitter to her bow using Martha Stewart’s Garnet glitter and some Ranger Glossy Accents. 

I also hand-cut the pencil and paper from the Cosmo Cricket “The Boyfriend” line of cardstock.
I used lots of sold cardstock and white ink to make the card itself look like a chalk board.
I’m off to see her now ~ hope she likes it!

Mario Madness

Genevieve Speegle
My little monkey turned FOUR (cannot believe it) this month and we had a Mario Bros. themed party. 
A good friend of mine even loaned Jackson a Mario costume ~ priceless!
I’ll be honest ~ I was looking forward to scrappin’ these pages for WEEKS!  I love getting to work with cute embellishments!
I bought some Mario Bros. die-cuts from an Etsy seller in June (still need to figure out how to use my Sure Cuts-A-Lot software…) and then added some epoxy stickers that Jackson was kind enough to donate.  I found this darling stitched card stock from We R Memory Keepers and layered on some DCWV video game paper.  LOVE these pages!
I made a special tri-fold card for Jack and wanted to incorporate it on the layout as well.

Sun Kissed

Genevieve Speegle
I have been having so much fun with the Sun Kissed line from Bo Bunny this week!  I find myself using it over and over again.  The colors are so bold and beautiful ~ perfect for summer pages!  I just finished the layout pictured above.  I love scrapping ordinary days.  Many times, they’re even more fun to work with than holiday pages (too much pressure to make Christmas pages as magical as the holiday!)
The picture really captured the season for me.  I can’t count how many times Jackson has “helped” water the plants, only to come to the door covered in mud and soaking wet!
Jack and his cousin had a “blast” with the Buzz Lightyear rocket water toy.  Again, Bo Bunny was the perfect fit!
The paper really lends itself to cutting out sections and layering.
Another fun summer memory has been the day we played Minute to Win It games in Nana’s backyard.  We had SO much fun and I cannot remember the last time I laughed so hard!
My mom was the first person to win a game (apple stacking).  This picture is worth a thousand words ~ it’s one of my favorite images of her.
I’ve also started cutting and layering the Bo Bunny Sun Kissed line for my summer cards.  I had lots of fun with this collage greeting.  I used a kitschy pin-up and added her to the Bo Bunny banner journaling square.  Then, I inked some orange onto the card and added some 3D clouds.
Card available on Etsy:
Hope you’ve enjoyed this week’s projects!  Enjoy and have a colorful summer!
