Welcome to the Team Princess bi-weekly blog hop for Scrapping With Lisa’s Designs.  This week Team Princess is working on the Blue Bird from the Birds Pattern set.  However, there are a few challenges that go along with the blue bird.  We were not allowed to create the bird in blue, nor were we allowed to create a card or a layout.  We hope this shows the real versatility in Lisa’s patterns.

One really nice thing about Paper Piecing with Lisa’s patterns is you can cut them out with a machine, or you can cut them out by hand.  She also provides a digital image of each as well.  

Our blog hop starts here,  http://scrappingwithlisadesignsdt.blogspot.com/ , so please start from the beginning and spread your wings to fly from one blog to the next and check out the wonderful designs by team princess.  

You will find the Bird patter here, (http://www.scrappingwithlisadesigns.com/item_17/Birds.htm) 

         Here's my project for our Dt Hop.

I love the actual project, but I was not super happy with my cage. I will eventually re~do the cage (heeheee)  I think the bars should have been smaller so you can see this adorable bird.

       I love this file, it's my favorite so far. Just because I can do so much with this lil guy.

       I hand cut this cutie, I adjusted the sizing of my bird by changing the settings on my printer.

To make the cage cut 4 -12 inch strips, I would cut them about a 1/4 inch wide or else your bars will be bulky like mine. The strips are held together with a brad. them hot glued to the sides of a small plastic tray.

I glued a ribbon to the back of my bird and then ran the ribbon up through the brad. so he would hang in the cage. Glue a stip of coordinating paper around the outer edge of the cage to cover the glued strips .

I hope you like this little project. I know you will love  this file. I thought of a ton of things to do with him. I know you will also. please don't forget to post your pics on the Scrapping with Lisa Designs FaceBook Page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Scrapping-with-Lisa/130882060268842 .
   
I can't wait to see what you do with this birdie ! Have a Blessed Day.

Thank you for stopping by today and please remember to visit my Design team sisters blogs.  We all look forward to your comments, as this is how we all improve our work.

Flower Garden Blog Hop

Welcome to Scrapping with Lisa's Designs Design Team displaying Lisa's file Flower Garden, http://www.scrappingwithlisadesigns.com/item_33/Flower-Garden.htm, which is available in her store. There are 5 great flowers which the Design Team will showcase in various ways to show the versatility of this file.
        I decided to alter a photo matting for our blog hop DT project. I love these flower files and I know you will also. These were all cut by hand, so if you don't have a cutting machine you can still use Lisa's Designs. 
         This is an 11x14 frame & mat cut to fit an 8x10 picture. This is a picture of my parents. The Lord took my Mom home to be with him March 2nd of this year and we just found out my Dad will start his battle with lung cancer in a few weeks. So I wanted to do something to honour them.

           My parents only had 1 copy of this picture, I think it was for a church bulletin. So I have made copies for my family. This project will be given to my Sister as a surprise.

          Recipe:  

I cover the photo mat that came in the frame with scrapbook paper. I picked out the flowers I wanted to use on this project from Lisa's Flower Garden file. adjusted the sizing on my printer to size I wanted them. printed on color cardstock and hand cut.I embellished them alittle with glitter (of coarse) and a few jewels..So you dont have to have a cutting machine to enjoy these flower files.

I hope you like my DT project. Thanks for stopping by. Please show some love to my DT sisters and hop along with us .

~More of Scrapping with Lisa Designs~

                            Thanks for stopping by my lil blog today. I've been having a blast paper piecing lately. I love the New Design Team that I"m on.  It's 'Scrapping with Lisa's Designs.'  We were given a challenge to use the adorable little lady bug in Lisa's Designs.So here's what I done. This is an altered Canvas that I made for a friend of mine.This will hang in her Great Granddaughters room over her crib.The canvas was painted with pink and white acrylic paint and swirled together. The Ladybugs are cut from pink cardstock and covered in glitter and bejeweled a little bit. All the edges have been inked. I glued them to the canvas and decopodged them to seal them. the flowers are made from my cricut flower shoppe card and the letters are cut from my cricut classic font cartridge.  

If your looking for some really cute way to decorate, this is a fun project. Check out Scrapping with Lisa Designs for your own lil ladybugs :)  Thanks for Stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my ladybugs.Leave me a comment and let me know wha ya think. Have a great Day!!

  I Love this little girl design. She's just adorable.  There is some many things you can do with this design. I chose to do a scrapbook layout. I embellished her hat with a flower made from the cricut cartridge Flower Shoppe,all the edges were inked with pink.I bejeweled her jammies with lil green jewells. Lastly of coarse she was covered in glitter !!  I hope you like her.

                  Welcome To Our Design Team Challenge.
Our challenge for this week was to complete a lay out from this sketch. Below is a pic of the sketch we went by.

                                                                                                                              Well I have never used a sketch before, sooo I hope it's close to correct.

 My youngest daughter and her BFF at a school dance.
I used coordinating paper from -the basics by paper studio- all letters and flowers were cut from Cricut Classic Font Cartridge. Of coarse we added pink glitter and green jewels.

As pretty as this Lay Out turned out to be...The Best part of this layout for me is ...My daughter and I done it together .

I hope you like it,  Please leave me a coment and let me know what you think.

Design Team Challenge

                               Welcome to the Kari's Purplies Design Team Challenge.  Kari Had given us the challenge to alter a notebook and add the flower to it from the last Design Team Challenge.

                                 I had alot of fun with this.  So here's the flower that my notebook had to be designed aound....

                               
        

And here's what I started with...just a plain compositional notebook that I picked up for 14 cents at wal-mart at the begininng of the school year and 1 piece of glittered paper. 

I cut the paper to fit the front of the notebook and glued it in place.

I cut the leaves and the " inspire"  sentiment from the cricut cartridge Home accents.  THe leaves are cut at 2 inches and the "inspire" sentiment at 1 1/2 inches.

I added a little bling and of coarse it wouldn't be my project if it didn't have glitter on it ! lol...I outlined all the leaves and the sentiment with Glitter.

I hope you like my altered notebook... please leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Thanks for stooping by and have a Blessed Day.

Here are my DT sisters please stop by and show them soome love.

Now for my project for the day. I made a scrapbook layout. I 'm thinking that if I keep making layout pages for the blog hops I'm in I will get caught up on my kids scrapbooks...LOL. It's a good idea but not sure it's working.
So here it is...

I used the pooh and friends to cut the tree and grass. Everyday dress up dolls for the fish.I added a little glitter to the fish, because fish shine and mainly because I LOVE GLITTER  :)

 I like to do journaling, So I always leave room on my pages to do that. I try to leave room for the kids to add their memory about the pic as well and I know I have more pics from this trip but couldn't find them (grrr I hate when I do that) so I left room for them to.I hope you like my project for this hop.

Thank you for stopping by , please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
