A Natural Beauty

The night before CHA, Madison from Echo Park Paper gave me this beautiful line to create with. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it!! I was in my hotel room so I didn't have many extras to play with but truly it didn't need much, the stickers and papers it had were gorgeous!!
I was asked to teach with this line from a lot of my store owners all over the country and abroad so last night while cropping at my friends place (where I still am...YAY!!! Love you GINA!!) I started creating a NEW version of the one I made at CHA!! It has a little more in it!! :)
Here are some of my favorite pages from the book! I'm so lucky to be teaching with Madison's beautiful lines!!

I used Basically Bare for my album, Victoria line from Echo Park, Helmars for my liquid adhesive, 3L for my tape, Clear Snap and Ranger for my ink pads, Hero Arts for my stamps, Ranger for my paint and glossy accents (for creating an epoxy look on cover), Sakura for my pen, and Hambly for my overlays. Thanks for looking!!!
Hugs, Suzy West

A day to remember, a new projects, and post your blogs!!

Last night was such fun!! I went to a crop at Our Paper Place. The new store that Sarah De Guzman owns very close to my house!! I finished creating this project that I'll be teaching at the Great American Scrapbook Convention in both Chantilly, VA and Arlington, TX. I got to work with Echo Park, Clear Scraps, and Epiphany Crafts!!

I'm teaching this class and other ones as well! If you are planning on attending, hope you can make it to one of my classes. I'm also the MC at the Arlington, TX show!!!! Come and get your scrap on with me!!!

The day before I left on my trip I attended my uncle's 103rd birthday party!

It was such a wonderful event full of memories and love!!

I'm grateful to have a lot of great pictures with him!!! Here are just some!!

Last, I'd like to thank everyone who has contacted me about the future DT call. I'll be finding out a little more soon and will start putting out a call soon! Please continue to send me your blog info!! Please post them here so I can have one spot to look. Have a wonderful day!!! hugs, Suzy West

Hi all!!! I wanted to show you some projects that I've created lately!! I made this first one using the beautiful For The Record by Echo Park!! The lovely album is by Clear Scraps!! I love the scallops!! I will be teaching it in Texas at the Great American Scrapbook Convention!!

The other day I made this layout using the NEW Websters Pages!! Love this line!! If you are in the San Francisco bay area, you can find it at Our Paper Place.

When I saw this saying it became my favorite quote!

As you know I'm working on a lot of really cool projects right now with some amazing manufactures!! I can't say yet what's up but I will soon!! For one of my new adventures, I will be looking for designers all over the world!!! So let me know if you are looking...I'm going to be doing a call but I'll probably be hand picking some as well!!
