Exploding Box Card

Happy Friday!  Woo hoo, we made it!!!!  Hard to believe, but this is our official start of summer, our cabana swim team time trials are tomorrow and it is all swim all the time from here on out.  lol

Today I wanted to share with you a card Ainsley and I made for her friend's birthday.  If you google exploding card box you can find all the instructions, videos, sizes, templates you will ever need.  This was not my idea, I have just seen them around so much I had to try my hand.

 Ainsley's friend's favorite colors were purple and teal...and I just happened to have some old, I mean ancient, Uspy Daisy papers in the stash that were just perfect.  I added to that some Little B 3D stickers and some borders from Martha Stewart.  All in all this was a surprisingly easy project to create.

Hope you have a great weekend!

A Box Full of Ballerinas and A Winner

Hi everyone!  Happy Friday.  I hope you have great plans for the weekend.  For me?  Celebrating one of my favorite holidays....National Scrapbook Day!  hee hee

First, let's pick a winner from The Sampler blog hop.....

Number 1 is Cheryl!  Cheryl...send me your mailing info and I will get your package out.


Today I want to share an exploding box I made with some gorgeous goodies from the Hydrangea Hippo etsy store.  I knew as soon as I saw these cute little ballerinas in the store I just had to have them, especially after all the years of ballet the girls have taken.

And I love the little sprays, and the beads, and the roses, and the.....oh goodness, this was such a fun project to make.

I know Mackenzie will enjoy looking at the little photos from her years of dance.

Well...hope you have a great weekend.

Hugs.
