2012-More scrappin and more updatin!


I had promised to scrap what I had done over the Christmas break back in November. I did do some scrapping during the break, but I did not blog it! I have to got to get more focused! One of my "resolutions" this year is to Scrap more and also to blog it all! Keep me to it people!!!

The Image above was made with my Cricut Imagine! It was the first printed item I've made! I wanted something for our New Year's Eve party, so I made this to hang on the mantle! It was super easy to make! I only used the Imagine, white cardstock, black cardstock, notes eyelets and black ribbon! The font was Designer calendar.

Over the break I started working on my summer vacation book. We took a trip to Colorado this summer for a family reunion and had a blast! I took so many pics, I decided to just make a whole book of it!
I used Paper Studio Vacation stack and Summer Vacation Cartridge. Brown tag and blue brads.

I used the Mosaic Moments Grid paper to lay out the pics and make the cuts. I also used green cardstock and title was made by Jolee's.

I used a paper from a stack I've had for ages...not sure the company. The title was made using Cuttin' Up cartridge and snow flake using the Joys of the Season Cartridge. I made the border with a snowman border from Queen's and Co and embellished it with blue and clear rhinestones.

I also got a new toy! I got a Sizzix Texture Boutique Machine to do embossing. I wanted to add some depth to my cards, so this should do the trick. I also got some new stamps from the Stamps of Life by Stephanie Barnard. If you haven't seen her stamps, you should go to her website and check it out! http://www.stephaniebarnardstamps.com/index.htm. I love her stamps and she puts out a lot of neat videos too! Check it out!
This card was just blue cardstock I had laying around. The I used the Stamps of Life Stars4U stamp set and guava ink. Super easy, but super cute!!!!

Like I said before, I have a goal to keep up with this! Keep me to it! I hope you enjoyed my latest creations! Thanks for looking!
