more scrapping

Here is another page I did, again it is my Upline Erica's design, I just copied.

However, I did create the cute kid in the photos.

Tough to see, but she also had this cool tape runner that put down stitches, almost like the stitches in baseball.

Enjoy your day :}

24/7 baby!

Whoo-hoo, on-line ordering is here! You can shop in your jammies! Even better yet, during the holiday time you can just give out my website information and your friends and family can shop for you on-line! It is super cool, individual pictures and product information for whatever you are looking for! Check it out. Not that I not available to help you out and take orders the regular way.

So, I caught up on some scrapbook pages I did at my upline's house. (all her designs, I just copy). Of course, I do these pages and then never get around to putting photos or journaling. I don't recommend this approach, journaling is important! With kiddies back in school, I have more time to catch up on these things.

This one is right out of the last catalog, just changed up color scheme to better suit a boy page. This was at Lego land in San Diego.

We went in April and now I am doing photos!!!

It uses So much set, a free set I got at regionals and never used it that much. Also features the chipboard (traced onto dsp, hoarder....) and the arrow punch.

Toot-toot

OMG! I made stampers showcase on Stampin UP website! For one of the cards I swapped at convention here:

Card recipe:

cs: pink pirouette, bella dsp, riding hood red, kiwi kiss

stamp set: heard from the heart and define your life

access: ticket corner punch, boho blossum punch, slot punch, 5/8 old olive and 1/4 pip grosgrain ribbon.

Also, I joined Sisterhood of blogging stampers 24. I was in group 8 previously and unfortunately we fizzled out as life got in the way for some to continue blogging and sharing. It is a really great group (as you see it is up to 24) to share on line and get feedback from sisters in your group on regular basis. You get to do challenges, meet some talented stampers and share the sisterhood of stamping. If you click on the SBS24 label on my sidebar you can find out more about signing up- we still have some slots available to sign up for our group.

Bear for Beate

Yeah Beate is back, I wasn't able with holiday weekend to do her sketch challenge. However, I got back from Tami White's Demo extravaganza featuring Glenda Travelstead, (got great info and make and takes btw) and my husband and boys were still out. So, I quickly went up to my stamp room and had time to play with her sketch.

This is a set on special this month for 15 % off. I have been wanting to ink this set up, so I was glad I had a challenge to get mojo going. I also was inspired to try watercoloring with markers mentioned at event today. If you never have done it-sooo easy. Just scribble your markers onto your stamp case and pick up with aquapainter.

I did flip the side layer to left side vs. right side because I wanted to have the bear spray the mosquito's and not his armpit.

recipe:
cs: kraft, rust, vanilla, chocolate chip
ink; stazon brown, creamy carmel and SU markers.
stamp set: under the stars
access: twill ribbon, vintage brads, 1 1/4 and 1 3/8 circle punch

CD creation

I made this based on a project we got for UStamp. In the sample they used summer picnic dsp and tart & tangy stamp set.

This is urban garden, one of my new favorite dsp in Fall-Winter IBC. I used inspired by nature set.

Cardstock base and ink color is not quite navy.

This is inside of cd holder, I just used whisper white craft to stamp inside.

Birthday thanks re-do

Okay, this is my second attempt at this set, much happier this go around. I am using it for a swap this weekend.

1) I stamped the image on pirouette pink and baja blue, then just did the cherry portion onto ruby red cardstock

2) I cut the pieces out- baja for bottom and pink for top.

3) I used my markers (pumpkin, ruby red and old olive) to color in sprinkles. I added crystal effects on top.

4) for the cherry, I used dazzling diamonds with two way glue and colored stem with choc. chip marker

5) I assembled, I used dimensionals for frosting and cherry portion.

birthday thanks

Quick post- I needed to make some birthday thank you cards for my son' s party.

I am not that happy with my outcome, I tried to watercolor with blender pens and ink pads. It looked so much better in my mind.

But will do for 8-9 y.o boys ripping it open and putting into trash can.

I came up with better design paper piecing it for a swap for a event this weekend. I hope to post that tomorrow.
