Hello! Well I spent my morning playing! I was really in the mood to "color" so I broke out my chalks and away I went! I had a bunch of birthday cards to make and this is what I did. It was easy and really back to the basics! I used Itty Bitty Bkgrds., Sincere Salutations and Give Thanks. The colors are Real Red, Gable Green and Whisper White. I had a good time playing with my chalks! Maybe you should get yours back out and see what you can come up! My new favorite tool is the "Crop A Dile"! What a cool way to punch your holes and set your eyelets....QUIETLY! Let me know what you think...you all are being awfully quiet out there!

Hello! This is another page that we did at my Scrap Club! We used More Mustard, Really Rust and Very Vanilla cardstocks. The images are from Leave Awash Jumbo Wheet and Big Deal Alphabet. I have had the Wheel Aligner for a long time now and just decided to learn how to "Miter" my edges for this page. That is a really cool way to frame your page! We then used sponges and classic inks Not Quite Navy, More Mustard and Really Rust and just rubbed the colors over the Basic Black. I also used Jumbo Pewter Eyelets to accessorize this page. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

Hi All! A couple of months ago I started a new Scrap Club and I am loving it! It is really fun and helping me to get pages done that I need for my own scrap book! This page here is done with Wild Rose and Wild West Alphabet. I am loving that new alphabet! We used Brilliant Blue, Ballet Blue, Wild Wasabi & Garden Green ink. The cardstock is Ballet Blue, Brilliant Blue and Whisper White. There was a lot of cutting involved in this, but it is worth it in the end when you use dimensionals to pop up the flowers!!

Pretties Class Projects





Hello Everyone! It has been quite some time since I've posted...I am spinning just wondering where did the summer go? Charlie is back in school and it seems like life is getting back to normal! Hopefully I will be able to keep up with the posting now! Steve and I have spent many weekends this past summer riding our motorcycles. We have had a lot of fun!! We also got bicycles too....thought we ought to get something that will make us do a little exercise instead of it all being motorized!!



I had my pretties class a while back and thought I would show you what we did. The cards turned out great! All we did was use re-inkers and aquapainters to get the colors for the pretties! How simple! You can also color them with you Watercolor WonderCrayons and them blend with the aquapainters too! We gussied them up a bit with glitter and hat pins too! And...did you know that after you color them, stamp the with a background using craft ink! That gives it a cool look too! I will have another Pretties class in the future, so keep you eyes opened for that information!!
