Valentine's Day Card & a GIVEAWAY!!!!

Well, Valentine's Day is approaching...fast!!
It's on a Saturday this year, so make sure you book those restaurants and baby-sitters!!! I've been really busy with orders for some cards, so I thought I would share a couple with you!!

I used the new Valentine line by K&Co. called Sweet Talk!! I really loved this paper pack!! It's double sided and let me tell you...both sides are FABULOUS!!! Some of the papers are flocked and embossed...yummm!!

I really like this first card...it's one of my favorites! But the picture doesn't do it justice!! It's really hard to see the butterfly and the paperclip...but they are there!! You can see it a little bit better in the second picture!! As for the corrugated paper....it's a priorty box that I tore apart and brushed white paint over!! It was fun, easy, and a great way to recycle!!





This card is a 4x4 size...but it's full of bling!!
I love these clear butterflies from Heidi Swapp!! They are so beautiful!!





Okay...as the title says, there is a GIVEAWAY!!!
Make sure you stop by the Paper Popsicles Blog to check out the details!! It's really easy to enter and there is a really fun prize!!

A Fresh Start

So for the last couple days I have been busy cleaning out my scrappy room!!
And I was really surprised about all the things I found!! Lots of goodies I didn't know I had!! I'll get to some of my "findings" in a few minutes!!
Anyways, I was really inspired by my dear friend Lynda...she cleaned up her room and shared the pics with us!! And let me tell you...WOW!!! What a fun place to be "locked" in!!!

So after cleaning I found a clock that I had put together, but never really finished it!! The frame was purchased at Michael's for $5.00 (with a coupon) and the clock hardware was about the same!! Super fun, really easy...and very inexpensive!!!



Then I came across TONS of extra pictures!! You know the ones that you planned on scrapping, but there wasn't enough room on the page...well I found a frame in the basement that wasn't being used!! And made this collage!! You can't really see it in the photo, but I took a white Sharpie and wrote little messages on some of the photos!! I LOVE how it turned out!! I think it's my favorite things in my room now!


And here are the rest of the photos of my super clean room!!!
I was rather thrify with some of my pieces of furniture too!! The brown shelf (underneath my white one) was round in one of my closets...unused!! And the white cabinet (under my clock) was hanging in my bathroom holding my towels before we remodeled it!! I covered my bulliten board with scrapbook paper and added some flowers for a super fun touch!! My pieces my not be your "normal" scrapbook furniture, but I'm really happy with it!!! :)
