Custom designed scrapbook albums and hand crafted wooden easels we call F.R.E.D. are just some of the posts you'll read about on For The Luv of Paper. I also share projects on here made by me and my family to hopefully inspire you! Cards, layouts and random DIY projects that happen to move us : ) It's fun to create and use all kinds of mediums to fill our home with keepsakes made together.

Another Happy Easter & Rain,rain go away!
I am so happy I was able to create 2 more cards today. Sometimes I just don't get the opportunity and inspiration at the same time!
Today was a continuation using the Easter cartridge. I used the patterned transparency sheets again for the umbrella. The slick look kinda goes with the rain theme don't ya think? How awesome are those metal rain drops? I know! I found those at Joann Fabrics over 2 yrs ago. I am so happy I still had them in my stash.
The old Sizzix found its way out today. I had to dust it off a bit to cut out a beach umbrella repurposed as a rain umbrella! Momma and her chickadee are out for a wet stroll in their Sunday best! They are embossed with swiss dots. I covered their pretty pink bows with ultra fine MS glitter. The font I used was from Lettering delights, it's called "Vanilla". I like the bouncy rounded slick look.
The jumping bunny was embossed with the mini hearts folder. His bow is also covered with MS glitter. The sentiment Happy Easter was stamped with CTMH set Seasonal Celebrations. Tiny in scale, perfect for what I needed. I just love the mini pearl details. Not too much fuss going on.
It reminds me of a new baby card. The purity of gingham and pearls always does when combined with a touch of eyelet.
Hope I inspired you today!
