I just wanted to send out a "Thank You" to everyone who participated and shopped at the 2nd annual scrapbooking garage sale. We had a great turn out and beautiful weather... 74 degrees! Couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!!
The Copic Ciao sale is still going on too, regularly $51.50 on sale for $39.99.
Looking for a certain color? Just let me know I can order it in. I can also order the larger sets of 36 and 72 also.
I love these albums because they have very detailed and cascading pages.
There is a ton of embellishments used in this album.... ribbon, flowers, buttons, hemp twine, and more. We will be using the new tiny attacher stapler from Tim Holtz, a wonderful tool! Here are a few up close photos.
Supplies you will need to bring are: adhesive, glue stick, and glue dots (smaller is better).
Now the inside saying was printed on my computer. The way things have been going lately, I could really use a pitcher of margaritas!
In this class we will be making a 17 page 6x6 Summer scrapbook. You have the choice of either a light pink or light green book.
This book will be perfect for all those summer time photos.

Wednesday, July 1st @ 1 pm and 6 pm. (6 pm FULL)

I needed to make some "fun" type of Birthday cards for some summer birthdays coming up. Good thing Changito seems to be gender neutral!
If you stamp onto a scrap piece of paper and cut out very close to the line it looks like you actually colored it that way! Just cut it out and stick it onto your stamped image.
Just in time for graduation cards and scrapbook pages are more custom school papers. Some of the schools in stock now are....
Doodlebug just released way too many cute stickers and papers. There are Zoo and Jungle themes, Nature/Camping, Birthday, and summer fruit like Strawberries and Cherries. Too adorable to pass up!
In the theme of Father's Day I thought this cute pup from "The Cats Pajamas" would be perfect. I have a new clear ruler from Tim Holtz that doubles as a paper piercing template so you can pierce holes straight and evenly spaced.
For this card I pierced every other hole. Its a nice effect when you just need to add a little something. Here is the link to the YouTube video that shows the ruler in action...
I have been carrying the "Fergie" frog stamps for a while now but just hadn't gotten the chance to use them yet. I was inspired to use him with the "Distressed stripes" Cuttlebug folder thanks to my blogger friend Michelle (Thanks Michelle!)
Celebrate your favorite dad in your life by making him a special set of scrapbook pages.
I am terrible at photographing 12x12 pages, so here are a few close ups so you can see some of the details. There are a lot of ribbons and embellishments to accent the pages.
Everything for the class is pre-cut and ready to be assembled. All you need to bring is your adhesive and pop dots.
Supplies used:
Cuttlebug folder "congrats"
Changito graduation stamp, inside says "woo hoo you did it!"
Spellbinders Nestabilities scallop circles
A new line of paper from "My Mind's Eye" recently arrived, its called "Just Dreamy" and the cardstock is so pretty. They have tons of cute frames and embellishments to match. I have been wanting to use this Hero Art stamp set with the elephants and was inspired by this pretty pink gingham paper.
I stamped the elephant on the cardstock and trimmed very closely to make him look checkered. I used the Labels 1 Nestabilities to cut and emboss the background.
At a closer look you can see the front of the box has a little metal fork and spoon.
When you remove the lid there are 9 divider cards for separating your recipes.
We will also be stamping 9 recipe cards to get your box started. This box would make a great gift if you decide not to keep it for yourself, this is the season for bridal showers and engagements!

Here is what I originally used him for...
He was too cute to store away until next March so I just placed a Prima flower over the shamrock.
They fit neatly into standard magazine holders to file your collection of rubber stamps and craft supplies. The convenient hang tabs can be decorated with ribbon to categorize your crafts.
These clear plastic organizers hold everything from clear stamps, rubber stamps, glitter, ink pads, embossing powders, and more. The prices range from 2.49 to 3.49 which makes them handy AND affordable!
I loved these cute & funky birds, they go great with the stamped saying "a little birdie told me..." I have been using a lot of fat ribbon lately too.
I worked on some little boy pages that I will be able to fill easily with pictures. I used paper and Chipboard stickers from Creative Imaginations.
I also used "Thickers" for the lettering, ribbon, and lots of pop dots!
This set has 12 great colors to start your collection with. I have 3 sets in stock right now so just call or email me if you would like me to hold one of these for you.
I needed some quick and easy thank you cards to send out. Since the weather is supposed to be nice around here, I felt like making some spring colored cards.
There are lots of embellishments like flowers, brads, ribbon, rub-ons, and more. All papers for the class are pre-cut and ready to assemble. All you need to bring is your adhesive and pop dots.
The rub-ons throughout the book say things like "eat your vegetables", "dont jump on the bed", "share your toys", and "play nice". This book is great for every day types of pictures that dont have any special occasion. The papers and rub-ons are from the Daisy Bucket line called "My Little Monster".
I dont know about you... but I've got a few little monsters at my house!
