Nutcracker Sweet mini album

 

THANK YOU to all of you wonderful ladies who attended the Echo Park Chillingsworth Manor class at Scrapbook N More over the weekend.  I truly appreciate you all.  :-)

Quickly approaching is the Nutcracker Sweet mini album class, which will also be held at Scrapbook N More.  My mini album bounced all over the classroom and between the classroom and the front of the store, so Mr. Nutcracker got lots of attention yesterday.  See how happy it made him?  ha ha! 

If you haven’t see this paper collection, it is BEAUTIFUL!!!!  The colors are so rich and the ballet shoes are near & dear to my former ballet days. 

This mini album has lots of pockets and room for plenty of photos of your Christmas, prima ballerina, etc. 

Here is a sneak peek of two pages from the inside of the album.

I hope you’ll join me for class on 11/10 from 1 pm to 5 pm at Scrapbook N More in New Braunfels, TX.  If you’re interested in attending, please contact Susan at 830-214-1690.  She’ll happily fill you in on all the details of this class, payment options, etc. 

For this class, you’ll need the following supplies:

• 12” Paper Trimmer
• Scoring board with bone folder
• Ranger/Tim Holtz ink – Dusty Concord
• Ranger Ink Blending tool with FOAM applicator
• Pop Dots
• Liquid Adhesive – I *HIGHLY* recommend Ranger Glossy Accents
• Double-sided adhesive tape - redline, Scor-Tape, etc

I hope to meet new paper craft loving friends, as well as see some “old” friends” on 11/10!  :-)

Have a Mice Day card

 

Hi There……

I’m here today with a card for the Scrapbook Pal Design Team using the oh-so-adorable Cricut Mickey & Friends cartridge.  For the shirt & bow on Minnie, I used my Cricut Imagine and RGB colors for Disney characters (found online) to flood-fill the shapes and then cut them out.  I just love Mickey Mouse characters.  They’re so cute!!!

For the black scalloped square, I used the Cricut Elegant Edges cartridge and weaved a piece of white ribbon around it.  I added a little stitching around the card base, then added Star Dust Stickles to the dots on the patterned paper and Minnie’s eyes.  I popped Minnie up on the card front and stamped “Have a Mice Day!” from the Pink By Design Animated Greetings 2 stamp set.  Cute sentiments….perfect for these Disney cartridges!!!

Interested in one or all of the products I’ve used on this project?  Click the photo below to be taken directly to the item in the Scrapbook Pal store. 

As always, thank you for stopping by today! I hope you’ll leave a comment to let me know you’ve been by. :-)

Have a Mice Day!!!  ;-)

Mr. Chillingsworth’s Coffin

BOO!!

“Did I scare you?”

 

These are the words I get from my 8 year old on a regular basis.  She sounds like a herd of cattle coming, so I have to pretend I’m super scared!  Ah, the things we do for our children!  ;-) 

I’m here today to share a project for the Scrappy Frogs Design Team.  The challenge is to create a Halloween project…anything but a card…so I created a coffin box and coffin shaped mini album.  :-)

 

I will be teaching this class at Scrapbook N More in New Braunfels, TX on Oct 14. If you’re local and would like to take the class, please contact Scrapbook N More. If you’re not local and would like to purchase a kit, please leave a comment on this post. Make sure you leave me your email address so I can contact you!

Here are a few of the products I’ve used on the cover of my book and mini.  For more info on a product or to place an order, please click the photo below.

Graduation Card

 

Hello there………

 

I’m here with a card I made for the Scrapbook Pal DT.  I’ve chosen to make a graduation card for the daughter of one of my besties.  She just recently graduated from college with her teaching degree and already has a job teaching 4th grade.  :-)

 

I cut my varying layers of patterned paper from the Crate Paper School Spirit stack and inked with Spiced Marmalade. 

 

The stack of books is a stamp from the Pink By Design School is Cool stamp set.  I colored them with Distress Markers and cut them out with my oh-so-awesome Tim Holtz scissors.  I cut the apple from the Locker Talk Cricut Cartridge, added Stickles to the pieces and popped it up on the card.

 

Crate Paper is her favorite  paper line, so I hope she likes it…………  :-)

 

For this project, I used the following products, available for purchase at Scrapbook Pal……and don’t forget FREE SHIPPING over $25!

Baby Boy Banner

Hello!  I hope your summer has been just as beautiful as it has been in Texas!  We’ve had mild temperatures compared to this time last year when we were probably at about 45 days worth of temperatures over 100 degrees by this time in 2011.  Last summer was HOT, DRY and MISERABLE!!  I’m loving the “mild” 90’s we’ve been having!  ;-) Anyway………….this is a baby boy banner I made for my husband’s cousin, who is due to have her first baby – a boy.  They are a super, super sweet family, so I hope they like it!  Their nursery is in owls, with brown, blue, yellow and orange, so I incorporated some of those colors on the scallop circles and the letters. I just love this owl! Isn’t he just the cutest!!! Here is a shot of the front side of the banner. The baby’s name is Beau James, in case you can’t tell. ha! This is a shot of the back side of the same banner.  I made it reversible, in case they want to use it at the baby shower or something…….  :-) These are the products I used on this project.  If you click on the links, you’ll be taken to the product on the Scrapbook Pal website, where you can shop their awesome selection of scrapbook products!  And……….you get FREE SHIPPING over $25!  So, what are you waiting for?  GO SHOPPING!  ;-)
