Recent Projects
Here are some recent projects I've created over the last month or so. I'm still off work until at least August 15th so I am really trying to get into my scraproom again and create some more....what else is there to do, right?
I finally attended one of Tara's Stamp-a-Stack events and this particular night was making Christmas cards. We made 3 of each design so ended up with 12 cards in total...it's a good start to my holiday cards. It was so much fun and I had glitter all over me for days!
These three layouts were inspired by sketches from Creative Scrappers. I used some of the Cosmo Cricket Papercrafting Kits that I won earlier this spring...love them! Creative Scrappers always has amazing sketches to get you in the mood to scrap...check them out!
The next couple of cards and layouts were created for challenges and sketches from Sisterhood of Scrap. I was fortunate enough to be the Guest Sister for July and I had so much fun! It a wonderful group to be involved with and there is no store affiliation so you can use whatever supplies you want and share your finished products in the gallery.
The Life Preservers Summer Crop was such a blast!! I spent more time playing games and chatting on the board than I did scrapbooking though and only completed two challenges. But, I did win a free September kit so who can complain?! PS...I chose the Alternate Mega and I can't wait to get it in my hot little hands! If you haven't purchased a kit from Von yet....what the heck are you waiting for? Go...buy a kit..just one...I guarantee you will be hooked! The prices are great (even with the exchange rates) and you will be able to create so many things from all the fabulous supplies in each kit!
These pictures are actually a few years old. This is Eric's Kindergarten field trip to the Safety Village. He got stuck with an old, heavy pedal car but he managed not too bad around the course. This layout was for Life Preserver's as well, but for the June sketch contest. I didn't win but the papers were great and got me to scrap these older photos so it was win-win as far as I'm concerned :)
And what the heck is this? Well, this is a homemade version of a Clip-it Up, of course! Scrapbook storage at a fraction of the cost ;)
