Happy Holidays

Believe it or not, the holidays are approaching!

Most years I'm scared of even thinking of Christmas coming up so soon. This year I decided to embrace the idea by creating a fun holiday project!!

This is a book I made using my Punky Sprouts album with the new CRATE PAPER holiday line!

I used Helmar to adhere all the different embellishments!!

It's such a fun collection. Loved all the fun colors, stickers, and chipboard.

I'll be teaching this class at different stores!! Hopefully it will be at one near you!!!

I made a fun book within the book.

These are some of the pages that I created!!! I still need to add some journaling but it's almost done!!! Thanks for looking.

24 hours of fun! (punky sprouts and crate paper)

If you have read my blog, you know that I taught a make n' take in New Port Beach last month.

I left on Friday and came back on Saturday because I had another event to go to.

I loved the pictures we took of our little adventure and couldn't wait to start scrapping.

Here is a project I created using Punky Sprouts album and Crate Paper. Love the combination!!

These are my new favorite pens by Sakura!!!

They are called Permapaque

It's an instant dry on acrylic! Love them!!

What do you think?

Thanks for looking!!

A layout and my organization tool!!

Yesterday I was playing with some of my scraps from a previous layout and I did this one.

I love Crate Paper. The colors are so fun and vibrant!!

If you scrap with me, you know I'm constantly making disasters!

I've been trying to get organized so I don't lose the gadgets that I scrap with most.

The other day I was organizing my make up in this storage box and realized I didn't like my make up in there anymore.

So I took everything out and put my scrap stuff in there.

I LOVE this thing for my supplies!! I took it to my first crop last weekend and it was PERFECT!

Here are some pictures of my new baby....I think I'm going to call her: Lady

So what do you guys think of Lady? awesome right? :)

Thanks for looking!!

Scrapbooking stuff!! :)

I've been trying to scrap a little everyday. Lately it's been all about the books so today I decided to do a layout. I have to admit, it was a little hard since I've only been doing projects.

I love the picture and I love the line and you know I love my Sakura glaze pens!!

I think the layout came out pretty cute!

I was asked to do a make n' take at the Reflections event and I came up with this little project.

I'll be at Scrapbook Territory this Friday in case you want to make one.

Just bring your adhesive.
Starts at 6pm.

I'm excited about some new things going on in my scrap world!

I'll get to announce soon so make sure to check back often!!

Dare To Dream

The first time I laid my eyes on my niece Ashleigh, I knew there was something special about her. It wasn't just that she was cute and cuddly. It was the way she looked at me when I held her, it was as if she was studying my face and would occasionally give me a big smile. It was her personality.

I remember as a young girl she stood firm that she wanted to be a vegetarian.

I loved the way she had to help any animal that she saw on the street that was either hungry or hurt. The way she did what she wanted to do and be what she wanted to be.

I'm so proud of my niece. If she is reading this, I want her to know that I love her with all my heart! I don't get to see her very much now that she's getting older but she's always on my mind and always in my heart! I want her to know that no matter what...rain or shine...day or night...if you need me, I'll be there! I love you sweetie!

This is a book that I made of her last night.

Punky Sprouts and Crate Paper

I started this book at a crop yesterday and had so much fun working on it

I came home to finish it!!

I created the cover and then sealed it.

I forgot to bring my letter stickers so I freehanded the word DARE and then cut it out.

Again, I just wrote everything out and then filled some of the letters in with a different color pen.

Love this picture of her!!

I added these chipboard hearts around the page. I then adhered the acrylic page on top

of the chipboards making it 3D.

Love how this book came out. Thanks for looking!!
