I want to feature my good friend Pam and her beautiful thank you card! Can you believe she just started scrapping this year? Look at the detail-the ribbon make out of bark-the ripping of paper and distressing! She truly amazes me-you will have to see her Christmas cards-complete with ribbon weaving!!!

Great job Pam! Hopefully she will let me share more of her cards on my site!

ScrapFest 2011 Part 1

ScrapFest 2011! Oh my goodness. I am completely exhausted. Friday, Saturday, AND Sunday of scrapping, eating, and sleeping. I went with my good friend Pam. This was my first time attending the event-rather than working it! I got the full effect this year. It is every September at the Mall of America in Minnesota. Classes, Crops, Make and Takes, Product Demos, and Brand New Scrap Products-HEAVEN!! 15 $ bought us a ScrapFest badge into the event where they had over 30 vendor make and takes! I will post pictues this week of all of my make and takes I made! It was so exciting to play with the newest products and learn new techniques! Oh and buy exclusive products!!
Special sales in the Rotunda....Boxes and Boxes of good deals and one of a kinds!

Prima make and take. One of my top favs!

Pam and I hard at work...creating flowers! Notice all the buttons I am collecting? I call it my flair. hahha :)

Well-It's to bed I go...I will post pictures this week of all the goodies I made, bought, and won.

Good night!

Scrapbuggy Challenge

Don't forget to hop on over to the Scrapbuggy Blog and submit your challenge entry! Here is my sample!

Yo-Yo Bouquet

Can't get enough of these yo-yos. :) I have a jar full now! Super easy to make when you are watching t.v. I used my qk vase and of course..my white crackle paint.

"Blissful"

Been playing with my new dies and paperline lately! Here is "Blissful" paper by Authentique. I also used my new nesting blossom and nesting eyelet rectangles! I made this flower using my dies and then folding between each petal. I then ran my scissors along each edge to distress. I then pinched each crease upwards so the petals curled a little. The center is a vintage snap for sewing! Thanks for looking!

Practice Perfect Happiness

Been loving this new Authentique paperline! I used my new nesting eyelet rectangle die, which I love how small the itty bitty nesting dies get! I added my vintage ribbon and button, and can't forget my latest craze, a couple of fabric yo-yos! :)

Sorry the coloring is a little off-been playing with the color saturater since the sun sort of washes out the color sometimes!
Thanks for looking!

Say "Yes" to the Dress

Do you ever watch that show? I can't stop watching it! Anyways, maybe my card is suggesting I watch it too much! :) Here I used a mini hanger clip and my wedding dress qk die. I used my new foam stamps to accent each corner. I used my favorite white crackle pain.

Thanks for looking!

Fishies!

I had a lot of fun making this card, as soon as I got the new LC coral dies I knew they would look perfect in a fish bowl! I didn't have a template for a fish bowl so I just cut out a circle and sliced each side (more on the top than the bottom) until it looked "right". I then added a small strip to the top to hold both sides of the card together and rounded each end. My friend Pam found the fish buttons and the rocks on the bottom are crumpled up gray paper that I chalked.


For the inside, I used my new Tiki alphabet! :)
Thanks for looking!

Vintage Blue

Inspired by the new blue vintage Basic Grey paper I found and added my vintage trimmings!

Thanks for looking!

Pretty In Pink

Made with my new Authentique paper line. I used vintage pages from an old book for part of the background.

***This just in! I am signed up and ready to go to ScrapFest 2011!!!

Turquoise and Yellow

Been on a turqoise and yellow kick recently! Here is a series of cards I made last weekend!

I found this mini bell at a vintage shop at the bottom of my box-I thought it went perfect with this card as a little charm!

I love this flower die from the WildFlower Gift set. It is now down to $34.99! Check it out here.
