This week's Pimp-Out/Showcase belongs to Dorothy from Scrap Happy in Ohio.
Hello fellow bloggers! I am so excited and thankful that Deezy is showcasing my blog. My name is Dorothy, and I am Scrap Happy in Ohio. I am a wife and mother. My husband and I have been married for 8 years this October. He brought a beautiful daughter into the marriage who is now 14. Our son will be 5 in November, and we just had our daughter in May.  
I started crafting as a child when my Grandma taught me how to sew. From there, I moved on to cross-stitching, crocheting, and found my love of paper-crafting in high school. I started with scrapbooking, but have since found card- and décor-making.
A few months ago I decided to try my hand at blogging, and so Scrap Happy in Ohio was born. Mostly, I blog about the projects I create, some of the photography that I take, but I also about my life in general.
Today on my blog, I am explaining the door hangers I made for our kids' doors. Here is a sneak peak. I hope you enjoy reading about my family and projects.

This week's Pimp-Out/Showcase belongs to Lucy from A Peek Into My Paradise.

Hello blogging friends! I am so excited to be the spotlight this week for the Pimp-Out Showcase! My name is Cathy and I am the owner and author of A Peek Into My Paradise. My husband and I are high school sweethearts and just celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary. We are recent empty nesters rediscovering adulthood after 27 years of being a family of four. 
I am always doing something, I just don't know how to sit still; even when watching TV or a movie, I have to be doing something! I have always had a passion for crafts. For years I loved to sew; even making clothes for my children when they were elementary age, until it was no longer cool to wear clothes mom made. Then I dove deep into cross stitch. When I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel in 2001 and hand intensive crafts were impossible and I was on disability for years, I became really involved in scrapbooking. The craft was all the rage. You could say "everyone was doing it!" Scrapbook stores were everywhere. I have been a shutterbug since I could hold a camera so scrapbooking was the perfect blend of pictures meets crafts. I have completed over (20) 12 x 12 albums.  I have slowly converted to digital scrapbooking the past few years and love My Memories Software.

I have two grown children, Kimberley and Bobby. Kimberley got engaged in the summer of 2010; with the wedding in July of 2011. With finances being what they were, a long guest list and my one and only daughter having visions of her dream wedding; mom took on a new role, hands on wedding planner/maker. Now, I have been in charge of week long Girl Scout Camps with over 400 girls attending. I was a Girl Scout Troop Leader for over 10 years. However, there is no other event that tops planning and hand making your daughters wedding. From table centerpieces complete with live goldfish, hand painting a personalized runner, all the bouquets and flowers, a set of guest books with a question on each to a huge cinnamon roll in place of a wedding cake. My daughter loves all things bread and cinnamon; she wanted a cinnamon roll as her wedding cake, so mom made it. For a year, I ate, slept and lived, making and preparing for the big day. Over the next few months I will be sharing our daughters handmade wedding.
For years friends and family would ask me, "How did you make that?", "YOU made that, how?", "Oh my, I want the recipe!". You could say Kimberley's wedding was the question that broke the crafters back. Where could I share my ideas, recipes, my pictures and passion for photography, the crafts I made with my friends and family? On a blog! 

My first post was live in September of 2012 and what began as a simple vehicle to share has grown into a passion! There has been a new post at A Peek Into My Paradise every day since. As I approach my one year blogaversary, reflecting back, I smile, thinking of the ladies in the blogging community who have become new friends! Yes, I love sharing my recipes, crafts I have made, tips of life such as DIY, organizing, honestly whatever moves me. I invite you to visit A Peek Into My Paradise and if you like what you see I would love for you to be a friendly stalker! Leave me a comment if your a new follower - we bloggers love comments - if you are a blogger I will visit you too!

You can stalk me your favorite way ;=) or two...

This week's Pimp-Out/Showcase is a little different.  I have been showcasing different types of blogs created by some awesome ladies since February and I figured it was time to tell you a little about me, aka Deezy from Deezy Does It! 
Hi there!!  My name is Wanda Hornung, a.k.a. Deezy from “Deezy Does It!”.  I am a mother of a beautiful yet fearless 7 year old boy, Branden. 


My husband and I are high school sweethearts and have been together for 19 yrs (married 13).


I first got into crafting right after we purchased our first home.  My husband just said “Let’s get what you need”.  I still have the receipt of everything we bought, which it is ½ faded.    

3 years later and I have one small corner in the Carolina Room.  I own three die cutting machines to help with my crafting, a Cricut Expression and 2 Cricut Imagine, with about 40-50 cartridges.  My specialties are 3-D items and cards and as of recently personalized anything.  I have yet to master creating lay-out pages for scrapbooks, but do dab a bit in it (and by bit I mean very little).

Cards created for very special moms this year

Personalized items
