About Me

Carlisle, Pennsylvania
I am a stay at home mom..now that is! February 19th, 2007 I was involved in a car accident while on vacation in Florida. I awoke in ICU to find out that my only two children Annemarie age 3 and Michael age 5 did not make it. Scrapbooking became such a big part of my life. It helped fill a void that I desperately needed to fill. Our therapist suggested that I take up scrapbooking as a way to memorialize my children, little did she know! So I took that and ran with it.I became obsessed with scrapping and took over the second largest room in my house. Because of my injuries I couldn't go out and get a job, I just scrapped!I printed out 2,000 photos and my journey began. I have made albums for family members and layouts to decorate my craft room. We thought we were done having kids but who expected this tragedy??? I just gave birth in June 2009 to two beautiful baby girls Mia Anne and Gianna Marie named after their brother and sister.I swore that I would keep up with their albums so I won't become overwhelmed so we will see how that works out! My profile picture is the last family picture that was taken of all of us.

LOTS OF LAYERS..think I nailed it! lol

Good morning everyone!  Today starts a new 2 week Linky Party over at Craftin' Desert Divas.  The theme for this challenge is "LOTS OF LAYERS".  When I started this I just couldn't stop...lol so I think I may have overqualified! However I do love the outcome.  So let's just say I am an overachiever! 

The paper I used for this card is from October Afternoon.  I thought the adorable Groundhog stamp called POPPED UP would be perfect for these papers.


I kinda just made my own card on this one, I had to since I was designing it freehand so no normal base would fit it.  I can't believe all the different dies I used on this one!!

Of course I had to make it an easel card to further go with the "popped up" theme.  This card is pretty big. I just kept layering because I would find another great die I wanted to use. If you don't have it already the MINI BANNER die is a wonderful little die to add to your collection, and only $1.99 I might add!

I did cut out several layers of the HI and glued them together to give it some height.  I also popped up the Fancy Stitched Label mats on the inside with foam tape as well as some other elements on the card.

I sure hope that you come on over and play along with us!

Now for your viewing pleasure, my very long list of supplies I used on this card! lol
