Our first class of the year will be heart-themed and it is certain to be a lot of fun! Yes, "Mimi" (our wonderful paper) meets the Cricut!! You can see it in the picture...the pink mini purse. Isn't it cute?

We will be using my new Cricut Expressions electronic die cutter (my holiday gift - yeah!) to make the following projects:

-Heart Photo Book
-2 cards with matching card holder
-Treat Box or Small Purse

The Cricut Expressions recipes (how-to instructions) will be included for your future use.

If you live locally, we'd love for you to join us and enjoy the fun!!! Bring your favorite adhesive, glue pen. Please RSVP me at myleeson@netscape.net to RESERVE your seat! Thanks for dropping by!

Natalie Rose Card



Here's a baby card I made for one of my sweet customers. Her newborn baby's name is Natalie Rose. Isn't that such a lovely name?

For a really soft color to edge a girlie card, try Versamagic Pink Petunia. I used the Mimi paper collection & edged it with this color chalk inkpad.



For the white dots on the scallop and the name plate, I used the sharpie poster-paint pen. Click on the photo for a larger view. "Children are a gift (heritage) of the Lord" - don't you just love that verse?

Paper Piecing with the Mimi Collection







I don't know what happened to my last post. My pictures for the "Remember September" PaperCrafting month didn't show up. So let's try it again. Here are the "Mimi" paper collection samples. I did some paper piecing on these.

For newbies, here's a quick "how to" on paper piecing:

1- stamp your full image on white cardstock and color in only the hair, face & arms.

2- stamp different parts of your image on different parts of your patterned paper. You will cut out these images and adhere them back to the white cardstock, thus, paper piecing. This is a neat way to add interest and alot of dimension to your work.




Contact me to purchase your Coordinating Paper Sets so you too can start paper piecing some scrapbook or rubber stamped artwork. Have a blessed day!!

You may purchase my cards and artwork

at my "Paper Blessings" ETSY Shoppe.
