Somethings missing...

So I have been working on a few layout the past few days.  It has been a little slow going because little monster has been sick with the mystery fever since Monday night.  Of course we go to the doctor and the mystery fever he has had the past 3 days mysteriously vanishes...and then reappears once we are home..grrr.  But he finally seems to be coming out of it.  YAY!  So I decide to take a few moments this morning to look over a layout and decide if I am done or if I want to add more...and something looks off.
AH HA!!  
There is actually something missing!  WHAT?!!
Ok so nobody has been in the crafty space since the last time I worked on this..how could something go missing?
Now for a sneaky peek at a the project I am working on for a fun Fall LO Tag team on the Noel Mignon forum..I cannot reveal all the goodness till all the other gals do their projects.But I gotta show you what I am talking about,  So....
Ok see this butterfly....it is suppose to have just a tad bit more to it....So did the parts fly off somewhere???  Am I living in some wonder emporium of a craft room? Hmmmm, very interesting....Look where I found the missing bits.
 
OK so this is just a little weird.  It even looks like it flew over and is sitting nicely among some papers on my desk.  Silly little butterfly...get back on that layout!

Ok so here is what it is suppose to look like.  And this sweet little flighty fellow is now firmly ( I HOPE) in place by a trusty glue dot.  Still not sure how it managed to get off the page to begin with, but I say it is the magic of Butterflies..heheee!  
Thanks for stopping by my crazy little world today.  Happy Craftin'!  JennK

Opps...It's Wednesday!!

Already!  I love long holiday weekends, but it usually throws the rest of my week into a tail spin.  I just can't believe it is already Wednesday!  WOW!  Well, that means that it is time for a new challenge over on The Wild Flower Patch.  To participate this week all you need are a few scallops and buttons.  Easy Peasy right?...so come on, join me and show us your latest project.    Here's mine.

I colored in theses flowers using Copics.  I added a few buttons from my stash and a little peice of ribbon that I uses a rub-on flower on.  I also rubbed on XOXO on the top.  


A few close ups



Well, that's all I have today.  Things keep getting busier and busier around here.

Inspiration Today...

Hello crafty friends.  I finally got a chance to create a layout and even a card using some inspiration from the Noel Mignon blog.  She has several fashion pictures with all types of colors, textures and design just begging to be used for some inspiration.  If you want to see for yourself hop on over to the Noel Mignon blog and get inspired...there is still time to link up your creation too.

So I did it...Here is what it inspired me to create.......

I used up some June Bug papers from Basic Grey.  I really loved this line and have finally used up almost all I had of it.  The little sentiment I got several years back from my LSS but, have no idea who to credit..sorry.

Here are some close up shot..and don't forget you can click on any of the pictures for a larger view.  I cut out a bunch of flowers from a sheet of June Bug paper and added some bling.  

I just LOVE these felt embellishments from this line...so CUTE!

Here you can see more of the flowers I cut out and more bling...YUM!

And the fun doesn't stop there!  I also got crafty and created a card....Check it out.

More June Bug paper from Basic Grey.  I cut out this sweet little pup!  Isn't he the cutest?!  The thought bubble is from some journaling stickers by American Crafts.  The Red letters are Adornit.  The stitching I did using my sewing machine.  Poor machine, I think that is all I use it for anymore.   Although come to think of it I did sew a new pillow for my chair just the other day, so I can say I do sew fabric a little bit..LOL!  

Thanks for stopping by.  JennK

A few of m y favorite things...

Would have to be Stitching on my craft projects, Yummy ribbon and great papers!  This week over on the Pink Elephant we are creating pages with our favorite colors and embellishments.  I have to admit it is hard for me to pick a favorite color when scrapbooking.  Right now since I don't want Summer to end I would say my favorite colors would be blue, red, orange and yellow. So it worked out great when I came across these great papers from Little Yellow Bicycle.  I decided to create a page with some pictures I recently found on my PHONE!!  Yup, I had forgotten all about the pictures I took of the boys while we were at the lake.  It was a day that I completely spaced out and forgot my camera...so I used my phone.  The pictures for the most part didn't turn out but a few came out good enough and I want to remember the day.  So I am scrapping them anyway.  So on to the page I created.

So as you can see I stitched a circle on the background paper.  All my favorite elements are here, stitching, yummy papers and my colors blue, red, yellow and orange.  Everything I used is from Little Yellow Bicycle except for the Chipboard letter stickers (Paper Studio), ribbon (stash) and the stitching.  The ribbon actually has a LYB (Little Yellow Bicycle) sticker across it...I love the way that turned out.


Fun stitching and some embellishment stickers.


Oh there is all kinds of Yummy going on here!



So what are your favorites?  Let me know here and join in the fun at The Pink Elephant.

Fall already??

I am still really enjoying Summer and am not ready for Fall.  Yes, I love when the crisp fall air arrives and I can take a walk in the middle of the day and not die of heat exhaustion...but, I really LOVE summer!  I know the calendar says today is Sept. 1st..but I am hoping for a few more sunny days before the fall weather begins.

Today over on The Wild Flower Patch we are using Fall colors on our projects.  I created a card with one of my very favorite images Iris.  She is just so wonderful!  I colored her all up in fall colors and used some SEI dill blossom paper I still have in my stash.


The image is colored with Copics.  The flowers are from paper studio and the ribbon...not sure it was in my stash of loose ribbons.  



So are you ready for FALL yet?  Come join us at The Wild Flower Patch and use some fall colors in your next project.
