Christmas Joy

Well scrap bookers, Christmas is almost upon us. With all the hustle and bustle, I decided to take a little time for myself. Using the Heidi Swapp art cards, I am making the 25 days of Christmas. Each day from Decemebr 1st to 25th, I am going to take a photo relevant to the day and scrap book it on one of these fabulous cards. There is a ton of space to journal, create and capture the everyday moments of the season. I will post photos the first week of December after I have filled some up and you can get a better idea.These would also make great gifts! You could make a mini album for Grandma's stocking or the best friend who lives far away.
The paper lace from KI memories has gone fast as well as I am down to a few page frames albums. Congratulations to Kelly Romanchuk who won a free one! Thanks so much for all your orders. If you are looking for something special and can't find it at your LSS, email me and i will see if I can find it for you. Check out the Urban Lily secret keeper albums as well as the embossed Prima albums. I have my hands on a few. Watch for an upcoming tip using the prima album and bees wax for a unique album cover!

Happy scrapping!

sneak peek just in time for christmas

I am sad to report that the beautiful Page Frame Design Albums have been back ordered! It seems that everyone is wanting to get their hands on this amazing new product! Page frames has canceled all distributor orders and I have to reorder direct. I gave a sneak of a "motherhood" album I was putting together for a class. Hopefully you are all as patient as I am because these are definitely worth the wait!
Those of you wanting to scrap and learn some new techniques can join us for an all day crop on the 21 of October. Everyone in attendance gets a goodie bag stuffed with product, a mini album that you learn to create in class and leave with a completed project as well as hands on demos through out the day...to top it all off, lunch and refreshments are included! cost $40.00 10:ooam until 4p.m. Space is limited so sign up soon.
yes...I am doing the nasty! I am mentioning...CHRISTMAS! It is upon us and I say, get an early start on your gifts. What better way than to make a beautiful homemade gift for someone to cherish! I am sharing a quick look at how you can skip the baking and serve up something yummy!
Get out your nastiest old cookie sheet and gather all of those tids and bits you have been hoarding but were unsure what to do with. I grabbed my favorite Making memories scraps as I seem to have tons of them! I just love the product!
Modge Podge one of the new Making Memories holidays to the tin after you have cut it to fit your cookie sheet. Note: I drew lines on for my calender spaces first.
Then use all your buttons, brads, flowers, paper scraps and such to make a "day" for each 25 in December. Use magnet strip cut to fit each embellishment so it sticks to the tin. Sound complicated? You could join me to make this in the November class! November 18th from 1-3:30 pm and the cost is $30.00. I will supply the cookie sheet, paint, brushes, modge podge, stamps, date stickers and so much more! Bring any treasured scraps from home that you would love to include and see how it is done step by step. Email for registration.
