Here’s a layout I did using scraps:

Toy Story Jammies (12X12 layout)

For this one the only new product I used was a piece of cream 12 X12 American Crafts textured cardstock.  The papers were scraps from recent layouts.  The buttons were left over from various Scarlet Lime kits (the big red one is the extra button that came with my spring trench coat).  The little bit of flowers at the bottom is cut out from the back of some Basic Grey packaging.  I stamped around the border of the layout (something I never do, so this was a fun change) with a tiny cluster of stars stamp which I held at different angles to make it look more random.  I cut the Toy Story title with my Cricut using scraps.  The “Live what u love” rub on is Basic Grey.  The letters in “Jammies” are Thickers.  It was fun and fast.

Here’s some more Valentine’s Day cards:
Valentines- Pink Paislee

I wanted to use up some Pink Paislee cardstock tags left over from a mini album I made last year (here’s a peek at the mini:)

I’m feeling a bit uninspired lately, which is why I’ve been doing such quick and easy projects for the past several weeks.  I have a mini album I’ve been working on since September and I can’t seem to get it done.  I’m not even half way!!  It’s a “week in the life” mini album that will show a snapshot of our everyday weekly life, with one day of the week per page and a page for things like what we’re reading, TV shows we like, and the contents of my purse.  I’d like to be excited about it… but I can’t get into it.  I am hoping the next post I make will be the completed mini… here’s hoping!
Mercy Tiara

Mercy Tiara

You may be wondering who is Mercy Tiara, and why the name? MercyTiara is an anagram of my first and middle names, Tracy Marie. I discovered this name in the 90's in grad school when we were all coming up with alter egos for one another in a lab one day. I've used it ever since, but you can call me Tracy or MercyTiara, or anything you want... just don't call me late for supper!
