Scrapbook pages for Michelle


These are pictures of Michelle's kids doing Easter Cookies. She had a real good picture of the cookies on a Cookie Sheet... so I took that Picture to Target and enlarged it and made the Cookie life size... so I put the Bunny Cookie on this first page....if you look at it close the Cookie looks real!!! Really it does!! The Stamp sets I used are Office Accoutrement, Stamp of Authenticity, and alphabet set Tall Tales (retired Holiday Mini 05).

I put up all 3 pictures of the pages Up.. because the double picture is blurry, and I wanted everyone to be able to see them together.I used Twill tape and Hemp behind the letters... and in the corners are pictures of the cookies the boys made, cut out and used like an accent. I used some fancy paper clips I found at target to put ribbon on.... Very Cute I think!!

I am not much on using Bold Brights ..... but with all the color's in the pictures it just had to be!! I used the stamp set All wrapped up (retired 07) for the cute jar of sprinkles... is that a cute idea or what!! I used the Horizontal Slot Punch for the sprinkles, and then glued each one down with Snail (aka Mono). I used the alphabet set Crayon fun (retired 04) and Expressive Flexible Phrases.. woo..long name for a stamp set! The Colors on both pages are Glorious green, Yoyo yellow, Only orange, Real red, Tempting Turquoise and Brilliant blue... that is ink, paper and ribbon. The letters are stamp with Chocolate chip.

Wild about you .... Make and Take


I just love this set Wild about you!!! I can't even begain to tell you how many different cards and brag book pages I have made with this set. I made this card for a make and take for our American Ink meeting today. Paper and Ink colors are; Night of Navy, Pretty in pink, Old olive,Vanilla, So saffron, Tempting turquoise and a strip of paper from the Petals & Paisleys Designer series paper. The word celebrate came from Everyday FLexible Phrases. I did use the punches on this one.... 1 1/4 for the animals... and 1 3/8 for the background square.... and Word window punch with a TT brad. Have a great day girls ....

Witch Card Swap



This is my swap card from the American Ink Meeting today. I used the stamp sets Booglie eyes, Bitty boo's too, Flannel plaid Background, and Hugs & Wishes. Ink is Black, White craft and Basic gray. I also heat embossed the "You're invited" part with white embossing powder. The witch boot is hung on the ribbon like a charm. I used a sponge around the witch..... and used the markers going gray and black.

Pumpkin Carvers and Pumpkin Patch 12x12's


These are some pages that I made for one of my best friends Michelle. She gave me some Pumpkin Carving pic's of her kids and Husband. I used 12x12 Pumpkin pie paper and Marigold morning and black behind one pic. The Patten paper is Halloween Night from a Mini last year. The stamp sets are "Carved & Candlelit" and Quirky Alphabet and Numbers (retired 05). I Heat embossed Copper on the pumpkins, used copper cord and copper paper behind the tiny pic's..... I liked this page so much I went though some of my pictures and found some to do my own page..... same Layout.



This is My page for me!! it is a Pumpkin Patch Page... same layout different Pic's.. What do you think do you like them both or what; I do!! It is the same paper just a different pattern "Halloween Night" Holiday mini 06. I put a pumpkin button on the 2 of the pictures and backed them in Vintage violet (retired 07). And yes I did Heat emboss and then cut out each Pumpkin... I hope Michelle loves the pages as much as ME!!! Hey now go do a Pumpkin page everyone!! I will come and Help if you want..... Later

Kim used Old olive paper and some pattern paper called Tree House in the 06-07 catalog.... also used Chip board for the Wacky Part. She used ribbon on the letter "C". She also used the stamp set "So Very" (retired). And yes my kids are so Very Wacky!!!! They took all these pictures on a road trip in the back of the SUV... and some on the Seattle Ferry. There is a lot of pictures that they took... so more to come I am sure..

Scrapbook page for Wendy


Wendy gave me some pic's of her and the kids at the beach.... really great shots too!! My family and I go to the beach a lot and it is just down the street from us... My Husband and I got married there too!!.... so you can see that I love to do beach scrapbook pages. I did this page with the colors Bordering blue and Night of navy and White. I also used a piece of paper that looked like water.I used the alphabet Headline in BB and cut it out and put the words on Twill tape... with some Hodgepodge Hardware. I also used the alphabets Rough edges mini in the Hardware and Whimsical lower (retired) on the "my Buddy" part. The stamp set I used is "Shore Thing" (retired) in all the cute little squares that I made... also the shore birds on the bottom of the page is from that set; I did them in Craft white Ink. I could not use all her cute pic's so I used my 1 1/4 punch and punched out pic's with feet and a sand dollar....and cute face pic's... I used the 1 3/8 punch to back the photos. I really liked the way this page turned out... and I am going to do a page just like it of my family ..I like it that much: OH Yeah and so did Wendy! I will be adding another page I did for a friend Michelle tomorrow so come back... Hey just if you did not know click on the Photo and it will in large so you can see the detail....

Scrapbook page for Kim Halloween



Do you Love Halloween as much as me!!!!!? I was so Happy when Kim gave me pictures of her kids on Halloween for me to Scrapbook YEAH! I used the colors Only orange, Black, Orchid opulence and White. I used a lot of ribbon on this page, and Hodge Podge Hardware.. I think that using the Hardware makes the page GO WOW! when you look at it. The stamp sets I used are Itty bitty boo's, Trick or Treat,Web Wishes, and Halloween Backgrounds.... I think they are all retired now :( ..... I heat embossed the Trick or Treat Cat and Spider on medal edge tags with some really cool Halloween glitter that I found... it sparkles black and orange....also heat embossed the skeletons White. When you look at the page close (just click on it) on the part were I wrote the story I stamped the big Spider Web ... from Web wishes on it....*If you are wondering why I was Scrapbooking a Friends Pic's ...? It is because we started to swap Pic's of any kind and we scrapbook each others pages 2 12x12's... I love it ...... if we do it all year that would mean that we would have 36 pages done plus whatever we do ourselves.... There is 4 of us in the Group and we meet and do make and takes and give out the pages we made .... Kim cried when I gave this set to her!!! she is so cute!!! *LOL* Come back and look because Tomorrow I am putting another page that I made for a friend!!! Love you girls!!!

Happy Camper Card for my friend Kim!


I made this card to help Kim out on her stamp~a~stack with the stamp set "Happy Camper". I made the card with the colors Bravo burgundy, Aways artichoke and Creamy caramel. Brads are from my Hodge Podge Hardware!! Love that stuff! I did stamp the smoke swirls from the set as a background if you can see it... I made this card easy for Party's... so the girls there are not spending to much time making bows or some of the extra stuff I like to add!!.... BUT it is still real cute and the Girls will want to buy the set!!! Plus the Big weekend for Camping is coming up and this is a good set to show Customers right now....

Good Luck Lady's
Have fun Camping & Stamping

Whats Cookin


This is a card I made with the old set "Backyard BBQ" (first time I used it in the 2 years that I have had the set) I made it with real red card stock and marker to color in the BBQ. I used "Zig Painty" pen for the silver on the legs, smoke, handle and the round part on the top of the BBQ. I used some red checker paper that I just had around; thought that it would be great for this card. I also used the "Color Spritzer Tool" with a black marker to spray on the white card stock... don't know if you can see it very well be it looks real good... I love that tool... I used to use a tooth brush to get that effect... but the tool is so much easier!!!! I had to get out rubber gloves and all it look like surgery... *LOL*... I also stamped some Hamburger's on the red part with real red ink... don't think you can see them to well...

Love you Guys
