Scrapbooking 2008 at the Crop

May 08, 2017 in Pocket Pages, scrapbooking

This pile is only half of 2008! My goal on Saturday at the crop was to organize and try to get some pictures into pocket pages. I was partially successful, organized what was printed and discovered there are a lot more pictures for 2008 than I thought.

Here is one of the pages I was able to complete. I'll have to spend some time sending pictures to print soon, hopefully before the next crop on June 3rd!

Supplies
Stamps: none
Colours: Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Soft Sky, white
Accessories: Hello Lovely Project Life Card Collection, Hello Lovely Project Life Accessory Pack

Monster Hugs

April 27, 2017 in card

This monster reminds me of Sully from Monsters, Inc. Do you see it? I wanted my monster to sparkle and it was so easy to do that with the Clear Wink of Stella. Make sure when you apply the Wink of Stella to your project not to squeeze very hard or else the sparkle might be over powering.

Supplies
Stamps: Yummy in My Tummy
Colours: Crumb Cake, Basic Grey, Mint Macaroon, Basic Black
Accessories: Clear Wink of Stella, Basic Black Baker's Twine

Onstage Toronto Swap #1

April 18, 2017 in Big Shot, card

My upline had an event at her house the weekend before OnStage so that those of us attending OnStage in Toronto could create/finish our swaps! It was very productive for me, I was able to complete 20 cards using the Always Adventure stamp set. It was a lot of Big Shot cutting but so worth it.

Supplies
Stamps: Always an Adventure
Colours: Garden Green, Soft Sky, Marina Mist, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede, Whisper White
Accessories: Outdoor Adventure Framelits, Stampin' Dimensionals

Easter Baskets

April 12, 2017 in 3D Items, Holidays

I really enjoy making thank you gifts for our all day crop attendees. For the April 1st crop I made these cute baskets. Inside I put some premade Easter basket filler and some Carrot Cake Kisses - yum! They really do taste like carrot cake.

The starburst is the really pretty glitter paper that you can earn during Sale-A-Bration!

Supplies
Stamps: March Paper Pumpkin stamps, Woodgrain background
Colours: Soft Suede, Whisper White
