Scrappy Sunday

Hi my friends,

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

This past week, I got to see my dear friends, Esther and Barbara (along with Barb's DD, Amanda). We got together for dinner at this delicious Peruvian restaurant in Downtown Miami called CVI.CHE 105 to celebrate Esther's birthday. YUM!!! We had lots of fun. You may recall that's where we took my step dad, Jorge, who's Peruvian for his birthday. It's really delicious so if you haven't been, you should plan to go. Seriously.

Speaking of Barb, we got together at her house a few weeks ago to scrap and I didn't get around to posting the layouts I made while at her house. I finally got to use my new AC Dear Lizzy goodies so that was awesome. Although it was difficult to cut into that gorgeous blooming rose ribbon, I am so glad I did it! LOL!

This is a lift of Stephanie Howell (I love her style, it's so girly)... I mixed some Dear Lizzy with Cosmo Cricket Material Girl. LOVE it!



Now this is an Elizabeth Kartchner lift... cutting into those little clotheslines was a bit tedious but well worth it. :)



And this one was inspired by Jen Davis using the Material Girl paper and chipboard accents. How cute is that?



This weekend, I made two Easter layouts with some Jenni Bowlin, Dear Lizzy and other extras from my stash. I'm having a blast using lots of Spring colors! These were both inspired by layouts on the Jenni Bowlin Inspiration blog.


Thank you Esther for those beautiful crochet flowers :) I LOVE them! I've been hoarding these, but I finally decided to use them! Teeheee!



I hope you have some time to create and get crafty this week :) I have a framed print in my office that reads "Keep Calm and Carry On," but I recently came across another version that read "Keep Calm and Get Your Craft On" -- gotta love that! I need one of these...

Peace and happy scrapping,
Vanessa
