Lil' Red Rocket

Just love these sweet little Lil' Red Rocket buttons ...

I used one on this page of some Easter pics.  This dairy-free Easter bunny was VERY special :-).

The perfect bunny:

 My DD has lots of food allergies.  She is used to not eating what other people eat and often asks if she's 'allowed' to eat certain things. So, a dairy-free Easter bunny turning up on Easter morning was a HUGE surprise! I wonder how the Easter bunny knew???  LOL

Here's a close up of the sweet little button tucked away in there:

You'll probably notice I've used more Echo Park Summer Days ... just totally love bright colours :-). 

Hope you are all having a great week, thanks for visiting :-)

Time for some Scrapbook Bingo over at Scraptivations!   Challenge #6:

Much like the traditional game, you will need to get all the squares in a row, whether that be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. For this game though, you need to include the 4 items in the row on your layout or other project. (But other things can be added to your layout as well.) The fun of this challenge is you don't have to be the first one to yell "BINGO!" everyone is a 'bingo" winner in the game of Srapbook Bingo!

I chose the second horizontal line:  Banner, season, tag, and 3 pp's.

Snug:

Any guesses which paper range I'm using??  LOL ... yep, Echo Park Summer Days again :-)  Who said you can't use Summer Days for a winter page :-) :-)

Head on over to the BLOG to see the other DT members samples :-)

And ...

Don't forget the big STOCKTAKE SALE on over at Handmade by Suzanne!!!  This range is in the sale ;-) ;-)

Handmade by Suzanne sketch

The Handmade by Suzanne sketch is always inpsiring ... this is the sketch for June:

This month, I am playing with the fun SUMMERY range of SPLASH by Echo Park.  So, this is my take on the sketch (I did mirror it, and used one photo instead of 3)

Everything is available in the store - except for the blue paper doily and the music paper flower.

I love bling flourishes :-) :-) :-)

Tidbitz in Time inspiration

These are the last of my Tidbitz in Time creations from the June kit.  It's been fabulous and I thank Wendy for having me as Guest Designer this month :-)

Since my other pages were so 'girly' I challenged myself to do a boy page :-)

I even made a little banner ...

And this was my last creation, a card, using the butterfly shape:

Only a few bits and pieces left now!  It's an awesome kit if you are looking for one!  Packed with embellishments, which I really like, as I love to add heaps of embellies :-).

Have a great weekend and thanks for visiting :-)

More Tidbitz In Time

I'm back with a couple more pages from my Tidbitz in Time kit.  I loved the blue in the kit and thought these wedding pics of my sister-in-law and brother-in-law matched perfectly :-).  (Pics are by LaBelle Photographics)

A birdcage cut out of the printed tissue paper ...

 Super gorgeous Zva bling flourish!  I cut this one up to put it on both sides of the bow.

And another one:

Together forever:

 The big paper doily is from my stash.

 I will be back tomorrow with the last lot of creations from this kit.

Sorry so short today, I have a sick little boy who needs lots of cuddles :-(

My wish 4 u:

Embellishment wise - I added the paper doilies and the pink tape - everything else is from the kit.  So many embellishments!!  Gorgeous Zva flowers and bling!!
