Birthday Coffee

It's my birthday today and my fabulous hubby surprised me with a new single cup brewer. It's wonderful and it provided me with a great photo and layout idea that was perfect for Scrapdoodles first ever blog challenge. The challenge called for using some sort of household icons. I used paper from DCWV's Nana's Kitchen pack as a background and for some of the embellishments. I spelled out coffee with Don Juan letters and used Ashlyn's Alphabet for the coffee pot. Now I'm off to brew another cup - yummy!

Practical Scrappers Sketch Challenge

Visit Practical Scrappers to see some great inspiration! The Friday Sketch inspired this layout of our Happy Hannah.

Another Diaper Cake

I just finished another diaper cake for a baby shower. I love making these for friends and family. I think they turn out so cute and diapers are always a great gift. I mean, you can always use a few extra diapers, right? Everything was cut with the New Arrival cart except for the butterfly - I used the Hannah Montana cart.

New Layouts and Practical Scrappers Challenge

I was in a scrappy mood the last few days. Here's a few of the layouts I completed... This week at Practical Scrappers the challenge was to use at least 2 patterned papers. Can I just say I love patterned paper???? The "1st Teeth" layout uses 3 patterned papers.
