Scrapbook Project - Rolodex

Here is a project I started some time ago and am working to complete today. Thought everyone would enjoy seeing the progress so far...


Due to the very poor pictures, I am going to narrate what each card says so you know how the story goes. It has a GREAT ending. Cinderella's got nothing on me! LOL


Every alphabet index card in the Rolodex has another piece to a fairytale starring ME! I moved all the blank cards to the back of the Rolodex just to show how great this looks with all the miscellaneous ribbon pokin out everywhere!






A-B is of course "once upon a time"!









C-D is "in a land not so far away, there lived a beautiful princess".



E-F is "and her name was Danielle".








G-H is "she was very thin and wicked funny".

I-J-K says, "One day Princess Danielle found a key in the forest and it was attached to a beautiful red ribbon."


L-M says, "Anxious to discover what it opened, she put it around her neck and continued on her way."



N-O-P says, "Soon Princess Danielle realized she was lost and sat on a rock to await Prince Charming's rescue."


Q-R says, "After some time a handsome man on a white horse appeared inquiring about the key around Princess Danielle's neck."



S-T says, "Are you Prince Charming? she asked. 'No, I'm Prince Kevin and that key around your neck opens the lock securing my treasure."




U-V-W says, "Marry Me and I will make you very rich!

'I am a princess and am already rich...' said Princess Danielle."



X-Y-Z says, "But I will marry you!' With that Princess Danielle kissed her prince and to her surprise he turned into a toad. She lived happily ever after!"


Moral of the story: some princesses don't need prince charming to live happily ever after! I hope you all liked it. I know I had a blast making it. Almost done!

Past 7 Days....

Gorgous Leaves Bundle Revisited

Yestday's Freebie Friday on a Monday projects were so fun and this set is SO BEAUTIFUL in it's simplicity!  It reminds me of a long-retired stamp set from Stampin Up!.  I was inspired to re-create the projects that I made with it once upon a time.  So here we go.... SIMPLE projects when you need a quick "hello" or an even quicker heartfelt sympathy card: I was DEFINITELY on a Bumblebee and Cajun Craze kick yesterday!  I can't stop/won't stop!  LOL!  To be fair... I had extra leaves die cut and didn't want anything to go to waste!  A quick speckle backdrop in Bumblebee then a quick "hello" greeting from the Biggest Wish in Cajun Craze with the Cajun Craze leaf popped up on a Basic White cardbase.  PERFECTION! Okay, as with yesterday's projects, the sentiment is from the recently retired SAB Delicate Dahlia's set, but you could use ANY sympathy sentiment you have in your stash.  Unlike in the past when I had to mask off the center rectangle...

There's No Place Like Home

 Graphic 45's Magic of Oz arrived at Paper Vineyard last week and this week the design team had a BLAST playing with all the goodies!!!  I took a cue from my new blog friend Barb and used a scrapbook layout she completed as inspiration for my project.  The simplicity of using up those mini-scraps is just BEYOND brilliant.  She is the newest of the MANY talented blog friends I have, so don't be surprised if you see me saying her name A LOT!!!  Her talent is out of this world and TOTALLY up my alley [thanx for the card Barb, it is WONDERFUL]!!! So, of course, I used Copics for this project.  LOTS of E40's and R20's and finished up with YG20's... with a little Y18 and Y00 thrown in to make the cat tails and the shiny doorknob.  For some reason, my shadowing lightened A LOT on this pic, so I'm going to try and take another pic in better lighting and re-post.  Hopefully I can show this a little better.  For some reason, I've been sucking with m...
