First BLOG WINNER!




THE FIRST PRIZE PACKAGE WINNER IS TENNLADY!

CONGRATS. 32 YEARS OF PHOTOS LEFT TO SCRAPBOOK -YOU NEEDS LOTS OF SUPPLIES! Lots of rub ons, stickers, papers, a card kit that was class by Ruby Tuesday, adhesives, lense cleaning pen, embellishments and much, much more!

Thank you for visiting the blog!

I'm behind on gifting, so I'm probably going to do 4 LARGE boxes!
I believe a stamper will be next............................. :o)


Oh, I am so jealous! I have an 8x8 room that is also a storeroom. To work on my sewing I have to move my laptop and Cricut.

I am heavily into scrapbooking as one of my projects is a photo album/scrapbook for my older daughter. Younger daughter's is done. Then I have 32 years of photos to go through to sort/toss/save and then eventually album/scrapbook them.

In my spare time, I play with my Cricut. I have one cartridge, but use Sure Cuts A Lot to really do what I want. Right now I seem to be collecting a lot of paper that is so pretty I don't want to use it. I'm learning to make cards, which is kind of a hit and miss situation.

Cirque Dimanchi Clip Message Board


Fun paper designs with earth-tone colors! A message clip board will hold a pad of paper, or one sheet, laminated for dry erase. Created with papers from Jeanine DeOre's Cirque Dimanchi collection, chipboard square by Magenta, mustard ribbon, cardstock. Title is a rub on.

Boy Baby Shower Invite!





Here is an invitation I created for a custom order for a Boy's Baby Shower invitation.
I was told that they were having a "tonka truck" themed party and I know the grammy loves and collects rocking horses. I already had conceived that I wanted "toys" on the front and it all came together!

GCD studios designer paper
4 shades of coordinating cardstock
Provocraft corner punch
Spellbinders dies: rocking horse and teddy bears
Ranger TH distress ink
The Best Glue Ever! (ScraPerfect)
Brads were found on eBay

Sharing new stuff

My last package has finally arrived from CHA (yes!, somehow delayed in CA 13 days. Whatever, it's here now)

I mentioned while at CHA that one of my favorite new companies was ECOGreen Crafts. Not only are their paints, inks and finishes low or N
O VOC, but all other products, including packaging is made of recycled content!

RECYCLED RUBBER!



Here are four of their stamp sets! SO YUMMY!
Embellishing Flourishes, Butterfly Post, Garden Chic, Petal Party
And, of course, the rubber is GREEN. Comes with foam self-cling for use w/ acrylic mounts.

Find out more at their website, but first read Julia's Story about why she founded this company, with the help of some friends :o)
