Happy Hump Day! Only 2 more days until I scrapbook with my friends at Scrap-a-Doodle-Doo. :) Need to start page planning. Its on my agenda for tonight.
Today's Project is one I did a short while ago. It was a gift for a sweet friend, Sherri, for her Birthday. I decided I wanted to make her a planner using one of our favorite paper lines. Simple Stories.
Did a little bit of sewing, fabri-tac-ing, and distressing. So happy that she loved the planner.
Thanks for visiting my blog today. ;) Be sure to check back tomorrow for my 2 Cute Rubber Stamps Design Team card.
Have a great Day!
Hi my fellow Stampers and Bloggers....
Check out my new home! Do you like it? I love the CLEAN AND COOLNESS of the design.
Thanks to my designer: http://blog.vkdesigncompany.com/ I'm totally loving my new look. :)
I hope you all had a great week end. I sort-of took Sunday off from blogging and I played in my Stamp room. First I skyped with my mom the 1st half of the day while prepping for Tuesdays class. (there is still room for 2 more if you'd like to sign up, contact the store, which is closed today, but you could leave a message) (or shoot me an email) Then the 2nd 1/2 of the day I skyped with Karen We did manage to make a few cards. :) I haven't taken pictures of those as of yet. But I will... Soon.
The project I am going to show you today is:
This little fella here is my nephew Lee. Look at that little face. He's such a cutie and a sweetie.
All the papers used are by Sass-a-frass. They are another favorite. (of course anything I buy is a favorite..lol)
Hope you all have a great Monday. I am going to try to leave work a little early so I can go get my hair cut. A much needed hair cut. :)
Happy Friday! This week went by so slow. I sort of took the week off from "creating". Until tonight. I have some stuff on my to do list for Scrap-A-Doodle Doo. Not finished but I did make a dent in 1 project. :) But that's not why I am posting today.
Today I want to share with you a layout I did. The idea from this layout was "borrowed" from Irene Tan. Let me just say. Another awesome lady. I'ma just'a sayin. I did change it up a bit but ended up using the same papers as she had. Holy Macro. I love it. I really enjoyed the hours I spent in making this layout at the Crop this past Saturday with some dear friends. Who I really hope invite me again to join in their sacred group. :) The reason it took me hours is because I kept Talking, shopping, shopping some more, eating, and eating some more. But any way, you get the gist of why it took me so long. :) he he he..
Oh I got side tracked. Here is the layout.
I used a Creative Memories large circle cutter to cut the page in a circle. I may have to do more circle layouts as I like the way they look. The Base of the page began as a 12 x 12 sheet of coordination's paper that you sand and the core shows through on the embossed parts of the page. In this page it was the clocks. The pattern paper is by TCP. And the word ante the clock happened to be on the same sheet. I just cut them out. The Pattern behind my picture is from October Afternoon in their Thrift Shop collection. I happened to have a Skeleton Key I got from the Michael's Dollar spot a while back and decided to use it on this page. It is a little chunky for a scrapbook page, but hey, I like chunky pages. :) All the stitching is done by hand. The flowers are from Prima. I had some ink still on my sponge when I inked up the edges of the October Afternoon paper so I just added a little color to the flowers to help them blend a little better. On top of the "clock" cut out I attached a Tim Holtz clock face to it to add a little more weight to the page as well as to blend in with the key.
