Journal #2

Hello all -
Here is the first journal that I made using the glue. You are not able to see it, but the covers are slightly bent. I solved this problem by putting the covers between two large telephone books and then topped with a 20 lbs. weight.

Please, leave comments and let me know what you think. If you are interested in the measurements, please, let me know. I used Marcella 3D stickers that just so happened to go with the Anna Griffin paper I used. In any case, enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday all!

Hello all -

Today I have something new for you. I created a Chipboard Album and I think that it came out pretty nice. I made it for my sister whose birthday is today. She loves journals...especially handmade ones. So, take a look at it and let me know what you think. One thing that I did learn...using glue warps the chipboard, so when I made this one for her, I used a really strong adhesive & glue dots. Now, i am not sure if the "warp" came from the type of glue I used, but I prefer the adhesive.

HAVE A JOLLY HOLIDAY!

Hey all....

Happy Monday!!! I am still in the mad dash mood trying to get all my shopping done by Thursday..so this is going to be a quick post.

This card I love because I used one of my favorite color combos - Red, Black, & White. The center image is from HeroArts Nature's Silhouettes. I used VersaMark ink and then put Opague White embossing powder on it and heat set it. I just love the way it came out. I am not sure if you can see it and if the scanner picks it up, but on the lower left hand corner, above the word sentiment, I punched out a snowflake and then used some Martha Stewart Crystal Fine Glitter on it.

So much for the short post huh?...LOL!
Thanks for stopping by!

CHRITMAS DAY GIVE-A-WAY!!!!!

Okay all....

I'm feeling like Mrs. Claus and I have a surprise for you all....

Here's the thing. I have some extra goodies in my stash here in NYC that I
thought would be a great way to share it with you all. Remember, I don't have a digital camera (hope that Santa gives me one) so I am trying to scan the images but it's not working...so I am going to list the items. In the goodie bag there will be the following items:
~ Memento Dew Drop Ink Pads
~ T-Ruler
~ Tim Holtzs Alcohol Inks (set of 3 in package)
~ Making Memories Brads
~ Making Memories Eyelets
~ Chipboard Letters
~ 3 Spools of Ribbon
~ 20 Sheets of 6 x 6 paper
~ Set of 8 Blank Cards made by YOURS TRULY!

Here's what you have to do. You have to leave me a comment on this post with your 3 TOP WISH LIST items for this Christmas. It doesn't have to be scrapbook, or craft related. On Saturday, December 26th, I will randomly select a name of the winner. On Sunday, I will post the winner's name. Any questions? Okay, so you have until December 25th - 12:00 am EST. to post a comment....ON THIS POST....

Good luck!
And thanks for stopping by!

Celebrate the Season!

Happy TGIF all -
Can you believe it?....that next week, at this time it will be CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!! Wow....I can not wait! I love this time of year especially for my kids. My hubby and I got them a really big gift this Christmas and I can not wait to see the looks on their faces when they open the gift all together.
In any case, this is going to be a really quick post since I still have some last minute gifts to get. This card was simple. Base card measures 4.25 x 5.5. Pattern paper .25 smaller and then the scalloped mat with sentiment in the middle. I hope you like it! Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!
