Mother's Day Project

Hola amigas! Just wanted to share this awesome class with you all. I decided to take an online class over at JessicaSprague.com I've never done any hybrid scrapbooking, but this class yelled out to me! I absolutely love the "Gabrielle" line by Bo Bunny. This class uses all of the gorgeous papers in this line... it's vintage and it's fabulous! It's a self-paced class and you can still sign up. I'll post some pics when I am all done with my projects. The coolest part about this class, is that you can resize and print the pages however many times you'd like! You get the pages in digital format! What are you making for your Mom, Grandma, Sister, Best Friend, Daughter, etc. ?

Sweet 16 Centerpieces


Hello there my fellow Crafty Amigas! Just wanted to share these centerpieces that I made for a Sweet 16 Party. I also made matching invitations and a banner. There wasn't a specific theme. All I was told was that her favorite colors were purple and lime green. I decided to use butterflies and flowers to embellish with. I really like using terra cotta pots for centerpieces! These were really quick and easy to make. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Adios for now!

Hello & Welcome!

Welcome to my crafty corner in the blog world! I'm glad you made it here! This is where I will be showcasing all of my crafty creations. I will also offer information on my scheduled classes & workshops here. I hope you will visit often. I hope that my creations inspire creativity in YOU! Just a little history about me. I started scrapbooking as a teen. Little had I known that it was called scrapbooking. I would buy pads of construction paper and use them as a scrapbook. I'd put pictures of my nieces and nephews in it. Then I'd find random cartoon pictures and add them to the book along with some journaling. I've come a long way since then! I am addicted to crafting! I own a Cricut, a Big Shot, and a Bind-It-All! I love embellishing with ribbons, buttons, glitter, flowers and bling. I don't have just one favorite manufacturer, I love (most) all of them! I love all things crafty. I sew, I stamp, I scrap. Many of my friends refer to me as their ~Crafty Amiga~
