My Minds Eye Blog Challenge 32

Here is my new for the latest MME challenge.

 When I saw this princess paper, I knew I needed it! Having a little princess, I knew it would be perfect for a layout. Just about everything I used was a MME product.

 I designed the You Are A text in Adobe Illustrator and cut it out with my cricut. I used my new Xyron Create-A-Sticker machine to add adhesive to the text, making it easy to stick down. There is a slight shadow added to the text with a faber castell pen and I also added a little diamond stickles on the letters.

The flower brads are a paper studios brand and accent the flowers on Brileigh's hat.

Mini Book #3

So here it is. Book 3 in the Mini Books series. I used paper from the beautiful Basic Grey Little Black Dress collection. I have yet to add photos to this album, but I am for sure going to use black & white or sepia tone photos!

 So per my last post there was a give away! I used random.org to pick the lucky person and it was Gayle! Congrats!

I have been busy making some new paper cone wreaths. I will have these listed on ebay and etsy soon, but they are already available on my website. These 3 are made up of some wonderful spring papers! Click on any of the wreaths to go to the website.

I'm working on some new Easter items as well, I'll keep you all posted!

Mini Book #2

Good News! I finally got the video for book number one up and running (in entirety!) on youtube!

Check it out here!

Better news? I'm uploading book number #2 as I type this so it should be live right here!

This is the accordion fold book that I make in the video. I've added some photos of fun time at the park this last summer.

I plan on adding some journaling to the inside covers and possibly more photos to the inside back.

Here is the first book I put together, just in time for Valentine's Day! This book is going to be given away to one of my luck readers! Just leave a message on this post and there will be a random drawing! And stay tuned for book #3!

New YouTube Video

I'm starting a new journey today. I recently bought the book Mini Books by Roxi Phillips and I've decided to make every book in her book. I'm going to video each book as well. Today I did the first book, and actually made 3 of them.

Check out the video!

Sorry! I have been trying for two days to upload the video to youtube with no success. I'll keep trying and let you know when it is on!

Some Free Printables

So I was playing around in Illustrator the other day and made up some Valentine & Easter images. I just thought I would share! Click on the image and copy it to your drive to print! Who knows what I might come up with in the future. Enjoy!

My Mind's Eye Layout Challenge

I finished up a couple of layouts today. I was inspired by the Mine Minds Eye Challenge

 This first layout features my son Rylan when his first teeth poked through. I used all MME product except the printer paper that I printed on. The paper is from the Alphabet Soup collection.

I was having so much fun with this layout I did another using the MME Hip Horray Birthday paper pack. I'm working on some more birthday pages that will coordinate with this. 

 I'll post more soon! ~Heather

New Things...

Here is a piece that I finished today. In honor of Valentines Day, which is approaching fast, this mixed media canvas is all hearts. This one-of-a-kind canvas has just been listed on ebay:

I've got some other things currently in the works as well. This is a recipe box I've got on the table right now. I just finished the first layer on the box. I'm also going to make an album for the inside.

More photos to come!
