Princess Marci + I Am Roses = PERFECT

Hello there my lovely friends!

Sooo happy that I finally made it down to my local scrapbook store
(LSS) to pick up a new LaLaLand Crafts Stamp.
It was hard to pick which little darling I should take home with me, 

but I decided on Princess Marci!

And here she is:

Pretty darn cute, isn't she!?

I put this card together using some of my favorite things...

Pixie Glen 6x6 paper by Prima

Copic Markers

Ribbon, Lace, and Flowers of course...

I Am Roses - Spray

I also used a Spanish stamp from "Dilo En Español" 

by Scrapbookaholic Abby! I used "Para la Quinceañera," 

which is a young lady who's turing 15 - it's 

equivalent to a young lady celebrating her Sweet 16.

Here's the final project...

Well my bloggin' buddies, 

thank you so much for stopping by, 

I hope you'll come back and visit often : )

Smooches,

Yvonne

My First "I Am Roses" DT Project! Yay!

Hello my dear blog buddies!

I've finally completed my first "I Am Roses" DT Project!

I was so torn, I just couldn't decide what to make first.  I mean really, this team is just so amazing... they always come up with the most creative and fabulous projects ever.   I just didn't know which way to go!  I wanted to showcase the versatility of these lovely flowers, and just how many different ways you can use them.  And that's when I decided to incorporate the flowers into my fall holiday decor!  

So I started with the dining table...

I can't remember if I've mentioned this before, but I love mini things!

Don't the flowers make this adorable mini pumpkin 

even MORE adorable!!! LOL!!!

The plan was to use of variety of flowers and several different items

 that you might use for a fall dining table setting.  

I gathered my mini salt&pepper shakers, place card holders, and

candle votives and jazzed them up with 

some of the more "fall" like flowers.

I also created a couple of napkin rings:

Here's a list of some of the I Am Roses goodies I used:
