Banners for Hire!!!  I am just loving the My Creations Banner and having so much fun making them!  Olivia's little friend Addison turned 1 today...such a BIG girl and I just had to make a banner for her!  I love the way it came out, I used the Mayberry Papers, added the Kraft Borders to the edges for an added touch, and my favorite scalloped flowers instead of ribbon in between each pennant.  I just have to say that the Kraft Borders are so versatile, I have found yet another use for them! 

PS. I also have a layout that I used the borders on in another way, which I will share later since I haven't taken any pictures yet.

I probably should update you on the weekend as well...can I say success?!?!  My first event went well, I had a wonderful time and met some great new scrapbooking friends!  I set up my store and taught one workshop.  The ladies gave me some great feedback and their layouts came out awesome!!  I look forward to vending at more events in the near future.  I am also looking to set up a workshop, more details to come.

Olivia's Beautiful Banner!

I have been such a busy bee this week getting ready to vend and at my first scrapbook event; Crazy for Croppin' Spring Getaway 2011 in Leominster, Ma.  So, if you're around pop in and visit!! I will be there tomorrow night through Sunday.  I have put together two small create and take workshops as well as a whole bunch of artwork to share with hopes to inspire some new friends!  I am so excited to share this banner that I FINALLY made for Olivia's room!  I have had the banner and paper since the new catalog came out.  I am so happy with the final product and if you can believe it, it looks even cuter in person!  The Sophia paper pack from Close to My Heart couldn't match Olivia's room any better, I think they designed it just for her! Haha!  If you love it and need to have one of your very own contact me!  I would love to show you how to make one or I can make you a custom one for your little one!

Happy New Year!

1-1-11!  Happy New Year to all my blogging friends!  2010 was bittersweet but went out with a bang...Olivia is now rolling over!  Look out world!  So proud!  Sitting at the edge of the couch cheering as if the Red Sox are about to win the World Series! I am looking forward to what 2011 has in store!
