MINI FILE FOLDERS - Another SWAP Item

Hi again-

Here are some Mini File Folders that I needed to embellish for another swap that I was in. The theme was 'LOVE & ROMANCE'. I had to use reds and pinks. I a really cute rubber stamp to create this "way cool' image. I punched the image out using a sqaure punch, doubled matted it on black so that it would "pop" and that is how I created it.

Thanks for stopping by

HANDMADE TAGS

Hello All-

Just checking in to let you know that I created some TAGS for a SWAP that I am apart of. Just in case, you don't know what a SWAP is, let me try to explain this to you.

A SWAP is a group of people (let's say 10 people) who decide that they want to trade certain Scrapbooking Items (purchased or handmade) with each other so that they can use these items in a LO, Card Making, or just to have. Let me give you an example. The theme of the SWAP could be "LOVE/ROMANCE" Reds & Pinks. The things that will be 'swapped' are BRADS/EYELETS, Tags, Photo Mats, etc. These items need to follow the theme. The brads would need to be either Red, or Pink, or they could be Hearts. The Tags could be Red with a punched out heart on it as an embellishment. Are you starting to get it? Hope so.

There is a HOST of the swap in which all the items that you decided to either buy or make are sent to. The HOST, once all swapped items are received, then organizes the items in such a way, that each of the participants gets whatever was made/bought by the other people.

I hope that made sense....LOL!

So....I joined a swap with the theme AFRICAN SAFARI. I decided that I wanted to make the TAGS. I am attaching the tags that I created for this swap. I had a lot of fun making them. I used colors that represented Africa and a safari, like browns, oranges, greens - jeweled tones. I then stamped images on the tags, inked around the edges and VOILA!!! - I made Safari Tags.

Take a look at them and let me know what you think.

Thanks for stopping by!

Handmade Cards

Hey there friends,

I created some cards that I want to share with you. I have been asked to create some "Thank You" cards for someone for profit. I am so excited! I started sketching some designs that I had in my head, and then I started to create them. I am attaching some cards that I made while I was "away". Take a look and let me know what you think.

Happy Crafting!

I'M BACK!!!!

Hello all-

It is so good to be back! I know that I have not written on my blog in ages, but it is for good reasons.

I am in the process of learning how to record demostrations via my webcam so that I can bring you all "how to's" from the Scrapbooking and Card Making world. I have some friends who currently do the same and they are giving me some helpful pointers on how to create the best videos so that you can get the best information when it comes to crafting.

I have also created some interesting projects that I plan to bring to you via uploading the pictures of them as well as step-by-step instructions just in case you want to try you hand at it.

So, in closing, please forgive my absence, but as they say, "it makes the heart grow fonder" (smile). Stay tuned for my videos and projects.

Happy Crafting!
Kimba

PS - I have attached a LO (Layout) that I completed today for a Contest Challenge. The challenge topic was LOVE/ROMANCE and what better way to share 3 of my GREATEST loves - my children - Jackson, Kennedy, & Logan!

Enjoy!
