Elisha's Birthday Room Reveal... Happy 18th Birthday Elisha!!

It's hard to believe our baby turned 18 yesterday! Last year for Elisha's Birthday room we filled it with over 200 balloons - if you missed the post it is {HERE}

This year I hand made her Birthday room. Danny had to pretty much threaten her to FINALLY take them down last week because we were having company this weekend and it was TIME!! Thank goodness!!

I could not have completed putting everything up this year before she returned from school with out help, thank you Shavanna and Charlie!! It was A LOT of work to get it all up and many good laughs!!

 The large "E" on her wall, she made last year and never hung. It really is perfect for her room and was the exact finishing touch above the banner. The "Happy Birthday" scalloped circles are from the Teresa Collins Celebrate line - so is the pinwheel centers - blue dots transparencies and clocks.

The Pom poms were purchased at Michael's crafts and I hung them on satin ribbon. The pink triangles are from the Teresa Collins Freestyle collection and I sewed them using double folded bias tape.

 The small and large doilies were purchased at the dollar store and I cut them in half and sewed them with bias tape as well. The "Happy Birthday" strips in the paper chains (every 11th chain!) also from the Teresa Collins Celebrate collection.

The three ft pink balloon was purchased at Michael's crafts too.

Here's the birthday girl taking it all in....

I think she LOVES it!!

Danny and Elisha being goofs!

I didn't get any super great photo's of the bonfire, I have no idea how many kids actually showed up there were so MANY!! I finally had to go to bed about midnight and leave Danny in charge, lol!! She had so much fun! 

Jim and the girls came down as well and we are having such a good time! 

For her birthday all she wanted was a new bed.... so we all were up very early to get ready and we headed out to the antique stores in Centralia and we found this:

believe it or not this old slat fencing is going to be transformed into a headboard and foot board! She is so excited!! I'll share "after" photo's when it's all completed. 

Happy Birthday E!! Love you bunches!!

I had been collecting inspiration for this room, to see what inspired pieces of this room click {HERE} to see the collection on Pinterest. 

Happy Mothers Day!

What a wonderful mothers day!

We started the day going to brunch with the family then heading down to the Degoede Bulb farm. Unfortunately they are closed on Sundays so we just toured the fields that were still in bloom.

 I thought it was funny - this little lone white tulip alongside the pink ones. 

 

 I love this photo of her!! I can't believe she will be EIGHTEEN this coming Friday!

finally a picture of Chuck smiling!! Ok, he's really laughing at me but it works for me!!

I love Shavanna's joy, she really wanted her picture taken by the yellow tulips. Such a great picture of her! 

It was 83 degrees today so we did not stay long! It was the perfect day!

Fast page layout using Teresa Collins Fabrications Linen

One of the things I love about the new lines is all of the versatility and how you can use them.

The back side of the Green Brocade will be your base.
Cut Tan Damask back side 6.5 x 8 and adhere to page just left of center.
Cut the back side of Green fleur de Lis into a 1.5 x 9 inch strip and ink around the edges in black and adhere over the hounds tooth pattern with more hanging over the bottom than the top.

New Mini Album using Teresa Collins Everyday Moments

I have to say this line is like sunshine to me. I love the high contrast of the yellow and Navy. 

 I love all of the little sayings, it reminds me, this day means something...

Cherish the time you have today & everyday...

Enjoy every moment...

don't forget...

I love this "these are defining moments"...

I made this album for CHA.

I love it so much I will be making this as a kit soon for my friend over at The Hens Den. She has a couple of my other kits, but I can not wait to finish this one, again, lol!!

I will keep you posted when they are available, I am going to make it as closely to this as possible.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?? Would you want one of your own?

Another Senior Pic layout using NEW Teresa Collins Fabrications Canvas collection and a contest.

This was one of my most favorite pictures of E, mainly because she is in a dress, lol!!

This paper line is is so elegant and fun with all of it's colors. I love how easily I can create with it.

I have been using my Cricut Cuttlebug and some spellbinders dies to create flowers, I love how quick and easy it is. I am loving multi layered colored paper flowers!!

Also, be sure to check out The Hens' Den blog and like their facebook page, They are giving away one of my kits: using Teresa Collins Sports Edition II. You have until Sunday Night, good luck!! This is one of my most popular kits because it is for both boys and girls!! 

Scrapbook layout using new release FABRICATIONS LINEN by Teresa Collins

Fabrications linen is such a great new line! I really like how rich and strong the colors are, creams, greens and reds with the black.... SWOON!

This is one of E's senior pics and I love how well these colors go with her photo's. (Be looking for a new mini book soon!!!)

To create this layout you will start with 12x12 black cardstock as your base.
Cut 1 inch x 11 3/4 strip from “Green Fleur De Lis” Paper side B and adhere to left side of page leaving 1/8 black on left and top/bottom sides of strip to create your "frame".


Create your "column" leave 1/8 strip of black between each of the papers
Cut 5 x 2 3/4 from “Red Quatrefoil” Paper and adhere to top center.

Adhere 5 x 5 photo.

Cut “Green Diamond” Paper 1/2 x 5 and adhere under photo.

Cut “Tan Damask” Paper 1 3/4 x 5 and adhere under your green strip.

Cut “Pretty Flowers” Paper side B.

With remaining side A of “Pretty Flowers” cut a 5 x 11 3/4 strip and adhere to the right side of your paper leaving boarder of 1/8 all around.

Add long border stickers between your long colum and the pretty flowers paper.

Using two strips of the boarders from the die cut sheet, adhere one strip to the left of your column starting at the bottom. With the second one you will need to trim one inch off and adhere to top and adhere the rest to the top of the 1st strip.

Layer the saying in the large black die cut over the upper left of your boarder and then adorn it with some bling.

Alternate mini black and crystal bling into the centers of your die cut boarder on the left of your column.

Choose from your die cuts and stickers to create your grouping on the lower right of the photo. I used pop dots and just layered, layered and layered. Add some bling to complete your grouping.

I then added photo corners in black.

Papers used: FABRICATIONS LINEN: “Green Fleur De Lis” Paper side B, “Green Diamond” Paper, “Red Quatrefoil” Paper, “Tan Damask” Paper, “Pretty Flowers” Paper sides A & B. Linen Stickers, Linen Die Cut Sheet I used 2. Blingage.

Scrapbook layout using New Spring Fling CHA 2012w release by Teresa Collins

I am really loving this new line SPRING FLING by Teresa Collins Designs. It's always so overwhelming in a good way when you open the box of new products. Usually because there is so much eye candy!! ✿


I love this photo of Elisha taken on her 17th birthday last may. She had just cut off all of her long hair and is sporting a new cut and color. Of course, it's blonder now and she is in the process of growing it out. I love how independent she is and just went for it.

 I love the "white space" on this layout and all of the layers! I'm in a huge layer, layer, layer phase right now.

I love the pinwheel flower, I added another flower in the center and layered them onto crate paper scallop circles. 

Here is a photo of the new release and all of the goodies

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Well so far today my family is thankful that we still have power!! Danny has made sure the generator is ready to go!! Yesterday my morning did not start out as planned and my whole day went a bit sideways and I felt a bit frantic trying to keep everything together. Elisha helped me so much when I got home to help prepare for today's meal, I LOVE that girl so much!! Today is going to be even more special because of all of her efforts. I truly GIVE THANKS to my girl, I am so blessed by her!!

I can't wait for Danny's family to arrive, it smells so good in our home!! On the menu - Turkey, oh my Turkey - tried a new brine from the Pioneer Woman praying I did not mess it up and that it turns out. Ham, Sausage stuffing, soul sweet taters (E is beside her self for these!), broccoli salad, cheesy cauliflower, all the typical sides, oh yes and creamy mashed potatoes...I'm so hungry can you tell??

I made the above "GIVE THANKS" using this months free negative download for the Teresa Collins Stampmaker, I love these monthly downloads!!

From our family to yours Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!! ~C
