All about butterflies, waterfall scrapbook.

This is a waterfall scrapbook I made for my daughter a long time ago. I LOVE these books, you might remember the snow one I showed HERE.

This is inside the front cover.

When you pull the butterfly tab on the right the pages flip by themselves and when you reach the end of the book this last page appears :)

I have some more of these scrapbooks I made with simply scrappin kits that I will share next week.

Santa and Reindeer

These are 2 of the cards we made at my sweet treats class last fall. If you have any questions as to how I made these just let me know!

All the pieces together

A little while ago I showed you the pieces for this card. Here it is all put together!

To make the circle, I cut out a 4 inch circle from my circle scissor plus and then I sliced the edge off.

The inspiration for this card came from page 55 of the spring summer 2009 catalog so if you have the old catalog go check it out! I keep all my catalogs because they do have great ideas in them :)

Always Club Pages

Here are June's club pages! As you can see I was totally lacking inspiration on the title of this page. I stole the title from the stamp set we used :) If you have any ideas on generic titles leave me a comment, I am sure I will need them for the next page. I also told my girls to not be scared by the pumpkin pie photo mats because only the edge will show once the picture is on them and they won't be so bright. I really tried to not use the big shot and totally failed! I seriously LOVE that thing too much :) As you can see we cut out the chipboard flowers using the Build a Flower die. We attached the paper to the chipboard with the amazing Tombow glue before we ran it through, make sure the paper side is down and you will get amazing curved edges. As you can see we covered the fabulous bird with Glassy Glaze to create the cracked glass look.

The thing that my ladies commented on the most was this circle image. We first cut out the circle with the circle cutter and then stamped it with the stamps. Can I tell you how much I love that the stamps match the Sweet Always designer series paper! I will be so sad when it is gone this month.

Partridge in a Pear Tree

Ok so I have absolutely no idea what a partridge actually looks like but it is what I think of everytime I see my page. I have been so excited to share my pages with you that we made for club this month but I wanted to surprise my girls for a change cause I know they check my blog even if they don't leave comments. *hint hint* One of the girls in my club told me that this is her favorite layout that we made, her comment made me so happy, she also has the best family pictures that totally match these colors to put on her page, so I am kind of jealous :) I know that pages 90 and 91 are many peoples favorites in the whole catalog and definitely one of my favorites too so I wanted to use them. Edit: we took some family pictures to match this page, do am I the only person who takes pictures to fit on a page? Here is the finished page. I wanted to use my new circle cutter and I couldn't resist using many of my new toys when I designed it. We used the new cheap talk stamp set but the good friend stamp set would look great too.

We also used a new big shot die. I love the new SU! Little Leaves die! I got the idea to punch out some flowers from the catalog on page 200 to add to it, I love the card and plan to case it soon. We just pierced a hole in the middle of the flowers and popped them with dimensionals. The scallop circles were made from another big shot die.

I love the new Latte buttons. The chocolate one matched so well to my page I couldn't resist using it (I know I am a sucker for anything new).

Here is a tip when using the circle cutter: Make sure you put adhesive on the paper you cut circles out of, we didn't do this at first and it was hard to keep the paper from moving but after a bit of adhesive was added (we used dotto) it made it so so easy!! So sorry girls that I didn't just do it at first.

I will post the card we made next week!
