Halloween Layout


While I was on a roll with scrapbook pages I decided to go ahead and make a halloween layout! At the school they had a Book-o-ween parade where all the kids dressed up and paraded around with a book dressed as a character in the book. This lets all kids participate even if they don't celebrate halloween they are celebrating reading! So I snapped a few pics on Friday, sent them to get printed and now all I have to do is pick them up and put them on this beautiful layout! Pretty smart thinkin' huh?

1st day of 1st grade layout




I finally finished my boyfriend's sons scrapbook page from the first day of school! Hey, at least it's this years! I still have a ton of his oldest sons pictures that are patiently waiting to be scrapped but it's difficult to do since I was there for them! lol This was a very simply layout I did using my Cricut and Locker Talk!

Delightful Decorations!


Delightful Decorations!
That's the name of the stamp set I used for these ones and it is delightful!! I have to be honest, when I first got this set I played with it a little but wasn't too impressed but I picked it back up and I can't put it down!!!
I have my first Stampin' Up! workshop coming up Oct. 28th and I can't wait! I decided to stick with this stamp set to show off! I made a hostess gift bag with the tag stamp that comes with this set and then I'm going to demonstrate a gift card holder using this set and some punches. (I cased the gift card holder from Chic n Scratch) and then these cards will be the make and takes! I stuck with the color scheme on the bottom for all the projects and then decided to show a whole new look with the blue and white!

Stampin Up booking

I absolutely love the owl punch AND the mini milk carton die from Stampin Up! I finally booked my first workshop and I wanted to make sure I didn't forget to try and get another one. So I came up with this little interactive display! I've seen these displays as the 3-D cake slices saying "Who will take the cake?" and "it's a piece of cake to host a workshop."
Let me know what you think! Would you book a workshop with me because you want to know what's inside? I would! lol

Double Embossing!


Hi Everyone!
Here is a really neat way to add more to your cards and pages! If you love your Big Shot or Cuttlebug your going to love this technique! Check out the video to learn how to do it!

I use my laptop to video my projects so they are not the best quality but I'm gonna ask for one for Christmas! Hint, Hint!!

A little OCD!

I've thanked my mother for the slight OCD! I got a pTouch label maker at Michael's yesterday so I spent my afternoon labeling all of my Stampin Up ink pads. First, I printed the names on the labeler, cut them in half and then punched the edges with the word window punch to get them rounded. Then, I peeled of the backs and stuck 'em in there!! Cool huh? I'm glad it's done though!
