Scrapbook Layout- Sleeping at the Doctors

In this layout I used the March Scraptastic Its my Life kit and add-on. I love the bold colors that came in this kits this month.
 
Now the story behind the photo:
My youngest son came to me one day after I got off from work and told me his throat hurt, so I looked and sure enough he had white dots in the back of his throat, so I took him to the doctors and he was so tired that he fell asleep on the table waiting for the doctor to come in.

Scrapbook Layout- Snow Day

 
Here is a scrapbooking layout that I did about the only snow that we got here where I live and it wasn't even on a snow day!!!
 
 
 
 
 In this layout I used the Studio Calico Roundabout Kit
 
Cardstock is American Crafts in Vanilla
 

Here the flag and tag are from a previous Scraptastic kit.
I also used silver thread to do some sewing through the flag. 

 
Once again here is a flag from a previous Scraptastic kit and I also used silver thread to do some sewing through the flag and I used prima pearls.

 
 
Title is from my stash of thickers and alphas in a aqua blue color.
 
and another view of the layout.

 
I hope you all enjoyed this layout. It took me about 48 minutes to complete.

Project projects and more projects!!

I have so many projects going on right now it is ridiculous!! I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos and getting so much inspiration from the talented people out there that I thought I needed to try every thing. I do plan on doing a video on each of the projects once I am finished but as of now they are a work in progress.

I have also been doing some internet "window" shopping and putting things on my wishlist as well.

Here are some pictures of my project in the making the first one is a tutorial I followed on Prima Marketing YouTube of Steffogal1, the second is like a junk album and the third is Bo Bunny word album family.

I'm back and refreshed!!

The holidays are now over and all the decorations are put away and life is now back to semi-normal. I have been trying to gather things for project life that I plan on starting this year for the first time and I also plan to do project life style with all my photos from 2010 til the present day. But I will talk about that in a later post.

Today I would like to share a few Valentine's Day cards that I am making for my kids and husband. I thought it would be cute to make then cards this year instead of doing the store bought ones. I think that it is more from the heart when it is handmade then store bought.

The supplies I used are all Studio G from WalMart. I know that other places sell Studio G products but this is where I got mine. :)
The cardstock that I used is from Stampin' Up!



They measure 3x3 and are perfect size to give to your Valentine.

Take a 3x6 piece of cardstock and score it at 3.

Thanks for stopping by!! Have scraptastic day!!

One Last Christmas Card to Share

This is the last one I made using the scraps of paper that I have. Making these cards really didn't dent the scrap paper stack any so I am going to have to find other challenge for myself to use up the scraps before I buy any more paper.

Here it is.

This is the portrait style easel card. I may make a few more but at this time I am busy trying to catch up my December Daily album.

Hope you have a great day!!!

How everyone has a great day!!!!

Christmas Cards

I have challenged myself to use scraps to make my Christmas  cards. I thought to myself if I want to get new papers then I need to use the scraps that I have now. Well when it comes to cards I get stumped on what to do. So I started searching Youtube for unique ideas on cards and make some for my family here in town.

I came across a few Youtube videos that had tutorials for easel cards. I got started making them and I don't think I stopped for a while. But this is one that I came up with.


Sorry for the blurriness I still have not found my camera battery charger.


I used scrap papers and Christmas stickers along with some rubber stamps and followed a number of tutorials on Youtube to assemble the card.

Hope you have a great day!!!

Another Daybook!!!

I have done another Daybook!!!

This one is using the DCWV Tattered Time paper stack and it is just using left over scraps from an album that I made a while back.

This one has more pages in it then the last one did.

I cut some of the corners with a ticket corner punch and just rounded the others.

I have no clue what I am going to put in it at this point I just love making them!!

So without further ado here is some photos:

Front Cover

 Inside Pages

Well that is all I have to share today! Time to make some Christmas cards!!

Have a great day and Thanks for stopping by!!!

December Tag!

OK, so as I have been going through things in my scraproom I came across so really cool glitter. The ideas just started reeling in my head. It is that time of year where there is snow and the beautiful holidays. I have seen several blogs and YouTube videos, etc that people make 12 Days of Tags for Christmas, well I'm not making the 12 tags at this point but I did decide to make a tag. I was also looking through my clear stamps and came across several images that I have never used before. I have every color on ink imaginable and I need to use it so taking a few stamps I have never used and the inks I hardly use this is what I came up with:

Front

Back

It is just something simple and pretty. I don't know the name of the stamps that I used but the inks are Real Red form Stampin' Up!, Green from Stampabilites, and Brown from Stampabilities. Various fibers and Stazon Ink in black. I stamped snow flake images as the background and layered 2 layers of a glitter that was large flakes on the bottom half of the tag. I then stamped the other images and cut them out and layered them on top of the glitter.

For the back stamped single snowflakes in various stops for the background. Then I took a say from a DCWV Vellum Quote Stack of Christmas and glued only the edges down with ZIG 2-way glue pen. It worked very well and you don't see the glue under the velum.

I think that the next thing on my list of small things to make is Christmas cards that I am going to hand out.

Well that is all for today! Have a great day and Thanks for stopping by!!!!

I'M ON A ROLL!!!

I have finally finished up my scrapbooking room and my mojo was lost somewhere within there. I am on such a roll that I have now finish 3 things that I have had half finished for some time now.

One being the Daybook that I posted on here (still no pics but its done), and then I finished up 2 mini albums, one that was a tutorial from Kathy Orta on Youtube. Here is a photo of the one I followed with Kathy Orta a while back.


And here is the other one that I finsihed. I will do a Youtube video flip through on this one soon.
 I took these with my webcam sorry the quality of them are not that great.

I still have about 3 or 3 left to finish and that will be all of my unfinished projects and then I can start doing more layouts. I have though about doing videos from start to finish with layouts but I am also focusing on one thing at a time.

So that is all I have to share today, Hope everyone has a great Friday and a wonderful weekend!!!

My First Handmade Daybook!

Today I finally finished a Handmade Daybook that I have been working on for a while now. It is just the base but its finished, now it needs the pictures and the embellishments. I am thinking of using it for a camping trip that we took either this year or last years.

You can buy pre-made Daybooks that are made by Amy Tangerine  or you can make your own.

Here is the front of the book.
The cover is acetate and I stamped it with StazOn ink in Jet Black and one of my cling stamps.

The book is made out of random scraps of paper that I had laying around and several different corner punches on every other page.





The back cover is also acetate and stamped with Stazon Ink in Jet Black.

I am now going to go and embellish it and hopefully have it finished for tomorrow so that I can post pictures. Cleaning up my scraproom  has inspired me to scrapbook again. I think my mojo was lost in my messy scrapbooking room and I have now found it again now that I have cleaned and sorted and got rid of things.

(Check my Youtube for an up coming video of a sneek peek on the inside of this Daybook and for the final project completed).

Thanks for stopping by!!!

Sneek Peek!!!

Here is a sneek peek of what I have  been working on. It is a December Daily Lapbook. I followed Kathy Ortas Tutorials on Youtube (there is 7 in all, check here to check the 1st one out!!). I am in no way taking credit of this, this was idea I just followed along and made my own using her directions and a different paper line and embellishments.



I had a lot of fun making this album and this will be my first year doing the December Daily. It is where you document everyday with pictures and journal from December 1-25. I will make a video of the flip through and post it on my Youtube channel HERE.

I have to finish my scrapbooking room today but I do say that since I have cleaned, sorted and got rid of things I have now found my mojo again. It was somewhere in the mess and I found it.

Here is a couple of pictures of the final clean up.

This is a picture of the mess that I still have to clean up. You can't see it in the pictures above becasue its hidden by the stuff in the middle of the room hehehe.
Its still a little cluttered but it is functional. I have plans on re-organizing in the near future and buying some new storage. Out with the brown dresser and cabinet and in with something new.

How you all enjoyed today's post and Thanks for stopping by!!
