MOD Layout

This was a fun layout to do. I loved using the MOD products from Autumn Leaves.

Creative Imaginations

A few new items - they coordinate with their collection: Honeydew Epoxies, Ribbon, and ABC Swatchbook - to match. I especially liked the green of the epoxies. Also, a new Baby magazine transparency cover. This sheet matches color perfectly with the Love Elsie Toby Collection.

KI Memories Love Elsie

SevenGypsies

New Brown and Black Graffer tapes. What I like about the graffer tapes are their soft fabric textures and look. We also have another 97% writers stamp which is so fun to use. Check out the refillable ink pads for the oval shapes. I've added some other products to show you ideas on mix and matching products.

Heidi Swapp

I didn't mention in the videos....add color to the ghost shapes either with paints or inks. You can add color to the whole image, the edges or stamp a design all over them. It's wicked fun attaching them to pages too! Be creative.

Scrapwork stamps

These are the cutest stamps and very convenient - having a chain for storage. I don't have many things hanging so there is actually space for these.
What a breakfast - the photo is the strawberry scones I made yesterday with my son. He loves to cut them up. I love to eat them! The recipe was from June, Family Fun magazine.

KI Memories Surprise Layout

Another layout using the Surprise Collection from KI Memories. Looking at this layout make me want to bake something. I'm heading for the kitchen to make some strawberry scones.

New Creative Imaginations

New items from Creative Imagination in and we have a special going on which includes the Magazine Overlays. Every $25.00 order will receive a FREE Overlay. These were hot sellers at the show.

Anyone for living in the desert?

It's nice for a jump in the pool-actually it's burning hot out today. This morning a long visitor came to say hello. As long as he didn't come to the door, which they usually do, I didn't mind seeing him. Not a rattler, thank goodness! Rattlers can make me jump out of my skin. This guy will just help us keep the rat population down. The bottom photos were taken this spring. A Gila Monster, love that name, was found walking around by my dog. I went to check on her when she was strangley not by the back door. Bingo, she was watching the Gila. Another, thank goodness, that she came when I screamed at her. I was very surprised that she didn't try to bite it. We usually spot Gilas during the spring and late summer. The way they blend in is crazy. I went to find it to take these pictures and when I was looking in the rocks I couldn't see it. You would think orange would stand out -when moving yes, being still, no.

American Crafts

Don't you just love American Crafts, their products work so well with other items in your stash. They're classics.
In these photos I used American Crafts with Ki Memories wedding line -Just Married and Lil Davis chip strips.

KI Memories Surprise Layout

Working on the birthday photos I've piled up. Here is a layout using KI Memories. I love the hip chip chipboard letters. They really stand out on a page. I'll have another layout video later this week.
New in the store -American Crafts brads and metal corners, plus the cutest Whistle Stop cardstock sticker letters. Try saying that out loud - what a tongue twister.

Perfectly Clear Book

Autumn Leaves has done it again with a fabulous stamping techniques and idea book. 50 great layouts designed by some of the best artists in the business. I am having a great time reading this book. There are so many great ideas that I keep dreaming about layouts using stamps. I love when I keep doing the same old, same old and something snaps me out of it. This book has done it! Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Crate Paper Layout

Here's a layout using Crate Paper, American Crafts and some DaisyD. With this being National Scrapbooking time -don't forget to stock up on goodies while we are having a 30% off sale! We hope to have the gallery up next week, at least that's my goal. Just a note, to check out the new book Perfectly Clear by Autumn Leaves, just in. It's excellent! I'll try to make a quick video on it today or tomorrow.
