Layout - Day 16


 Today I have a layout for you! YAY! I really am a scrapbooker first then a card maker - but I really like the immediate satisfaction of finishing a card! I go through spurts of mojo - for awhile it's cards , then layouts, then jewelry I am all over the place! Maybe I have crafty ADD?!?!
 I began this layout at CKC in the class my friend Cheri and I took together. The instructor was supposed to be the incredible Maren Benadict but due to scheduling conflicts and really bad luck on my part - it wasn't :( It was still a pretty cool class though! I am now in LOVE with Core'dnations cardstock! I learned I really love my big shot! So we made this layout which was very simple but has quite a bit of visual interest thanks to the  embossed cardstock that we sanded. I also inked everything. We also made two cards. When I got home I tried to figure out what I could scrap with a butterfly?!?!? I have two boys remember? Then I thought about our amazing butterfly bush! I so love it! My mom is even jealous of it! It will be one of the (few) things I will REALLY miss about this house! So I had the boys pose in front of it snapped some photos and turned them black and white so they wouldn't clash horribly!
Here is a close up of the layered butterfly and the sanded Core'dnations paper.
Thanks for looking!

Today I am thankful to have a nice warm home even though there are MANY MANY things about it that frustrate the heck out of me! I am thankful to have a roof over my head and a place to lay my head at night.

Who is the Krafty Mama?


Hi I'm the Krafty one! :) I'm the Queen to 2 little knights and a sweet princess. I married my knight in shining armor (kevlar) over 8 years ago and I am a REAL mom, wife and substitute teacher trying to be the best I can be! I love "krafting" but tend to buy more supplies than I actually use. I love make up, nail polish, hair products and fashion but have been known to leave the house in sweats a messy bun and no make up! I love to cook and bake but am guilty of feeding my kids McDonalds in a pinch. I love direct sales and have joined too many to mention! I would love to get to know you!
