My 12 days of crafts series-Day11

Ok gang, so here's my first charm bracelet. It's quite simple as that was all I could handle :) I don't know if it's my chunky fingers or a lack of coordination (probably BOTH!) but this was a tough one. I'll definitely need to practice!!! Thanks for stopping by!!
Hugs,
Gloria

Fall cards

School is back in session and fall is in the air. I've been busy working on cards and other projects. I recenlty began re-organizing my craft room, it's coming along quite nicely. I'm sure it will be better once it's done! For now, here are some of my latest creations. Thanks for stopping by.....I'll be posting something in the next few weeks that will hopefully make you glad you did :) Happy scrappin friends!

Birthday card for Scrapchicky

Here's the birthday card I made for Ruthie over the weekend.
Could I just tell you how much I LOOOOVVEEEEE that girl?!?!? Those of you who know her, know that she's a sweet and kind person, always willing to help. She's a really great sister and DEAR friend. I'm so blessed to have her as my sister!!!!!

...and yet, MORE cards!!!

I had these coming out of my ears!!!!! It was nice to try my hand at the different styles and themes. Wedding cards are definitely my favorites to make!!!!

and more cards

More cards

I don't know about you all but with today being the first day of school, I couldn't help but have an overwhelming feeling of sadness because summer is OVER! Between working, summer camps, school shopping, volunteering and crafting (of course!), I'm pretty wiped out and my summer has come and gone! Through all of this, I have worked on many cards and other projects. I am happy to say that I remembered to take pictures, so here they are. I'll post the rest as I am able :) Patience please!
Happy scrappin!!!

Another DT Project for Hearfelt Creations

Altered Items

Since my card mojo was depleted last week, I thought I'd work on altering a composition notebook and a frame. Had fun with these, simple was my motto:)
