I just love adding my own little touch to things. This is just a plain coaster set but I added rubons to give them some extra flair. It’s very simple to do to make change something from ordinary to extraordinary. These were a grandparent gift for Christmas with pictures of the new babies. I had to get a little creative to come up with an idea for the fourth coaster since there were only three babies. I like how it turned out as a complete set. Scrap supplies are DCWV vellum quote matted on cardstock, and misc. rubons from my stash.

These pages were made using the Basic Grey Sweet Threads Page Kit. It was another splurge for some quick, easy, and different pages.

Spring has Sprung:
Supplies used: Basic Grey Kioshi Page Kit, 3D foam tape, Prima Inspiring Creativity flowers, and KaiserCraft Pearls.
Fussy & Fancy Challenge #43 – Use a Lot (pearls!)
Heaven Sent:
Supplies used: Basic Grey Kioshi Page Kit and KaiserCraft Pearls.
Bloom & Grow:
Supplies used: Basic Grey Kioshi Page Kit and Kaisercraft Rhinestones.
These pages are all from the same kit and that’s all you get but I do have lots of diecuts, rubons, and chipboard left over to make more pages or cards. For me it was a worthwhile splurge because it made some quick, easy, and cute pages.

Welcome to yet another Close to My Heart Blog Hop. This month we are featuring buttons. CTMH has many new button shapes that are absolutely adorable!
The hop forms a circle so if you are starting here, simply continue until you make your way back. If you are coming from Nikka’s blog you are on the right track.
Supplies used are all CTMH: Cherry-O Paper Pack, Love Letter Rub-ons, Colonial White Grosgrain Ribbon, and Buttons-Pink Assortment.
As you can see from the supply list, this was a very simple page. The scattering of buttons draws attention to the title. The idea came to me in my sleep – just drop a handful of buttons and let them be. This turned out to work well, giving a greater sense of randomness. The button at the top of the page with the ribbon is strategically placed to cover up a person in the background of the photo.
Now hop on over to Tracy’s blog!
