National Scrapbooking Day Kit



May 1st is National Scrapbooking Day. I am so excited to be able to offer this kit as one of the many fantastic prizes that can be one won, just for participating in the challenges for this special day over on the The Beach. Kathryn will be hosting a variety of challenges and you can check out more information about it here.

This kit comes with 6 pieces 6 x 6 chipboard.
18 pieces of double sided designer paper from Stampin Up's Sweet Pea Paper pack.
10 pieces of assorted cardstock to coordinate with the Designer paper.

also included are...
1 page of alphas
1 coin envelope
2 velum envelopes
1 glassine envelope
1 slide mount die cut
3 medium shipping tags
5 small shipping tags
Assorted chipboard die cuts (frames, ovals clock hand, key, etc.)
4 large die cut tickets
3 small die cut double tickets
1 acetate journal spot

An assortment of fibers and 8 ribbons that coordinate with the papers.

12 assorted flowers that coordinate with the papers. Some are Prima and a couple are not but still beautiful.

A wonderful assortment of hardware and bling embellishments. A large binding ring. Gem flourish, charms, paperclips, brads. oh and not pictured but now included are 6 jumbo eyelets.

This is a great kit that can be used to create a wonderful mini that will be cherished for a long time.
I have since received my Tim Holtz dies and may add a few more chipboard die cuts to this kit and who knows what else I might throw in just for fun.
So check out the Beach for National Scrapbook Day, participate in a challenge or two...or even better more, and maybe win a great prize.
Thanks,

Big News!


I have big news, well big for me. I am so excited!

I have made the P3 Challenge Design Team...(Paper Cubed).

They will have a new challenge each month. The challenges will be posted on the 1st of each month. The deadline is midnight EST on the last day of the same month. Winners will be announced on the 5th of the month following the challenge. Hope to see you participate.

My first participation will be for the May1st challenge, so be sure to check us out and see all the great ideas the team comes up with. I have been checking out their blogs and think there will be lots of creative ideas shared.

RAK From Elaine (sillyfroghoneybee)

Just look at all these goodies I received from Elaine. Two die cut bird cages from the new Tim Holtz dies, assorted laces, and look at those fibres...they are sooo pretty. But just look at the tag...

Just look at this beautiful tag. I helped her get a stamp set she had been looking for, one I had actually been looking for as well, I ended up with two and sent her the duplicate. She sent this package to me as a thank you. Can you see that awesome textured background? She has a tutorial for how it is done if you check out her YouTube channel sillyfroghoneybee.


I am not sure which side is the front, but here is the second side to this fabulous tag. She has added my name using letter on dimensionals. There is a black embossed chandelier, some lace with pearl trim.

All I can say is wow, love it Elaine. Thank you so much.

Hope you enjoyed this little piece of artwork.




Thanks,

More Flowers by my Daughter!

Aren't these beautiful? I can't take credit for these. My daughter made them. She did an awesome job.

I love this tiny blue one.


The yellow and purple and more colors my oldest daughter loves...but still beauties!

This is my favorite, only because I love natural colors the best.

I love this one too....so pretty! Loook at the shading on this one...it is gorgeous.

My daughter is not happy with this one but I think it is pretty too.


So ladies, share some love let her know what a great job she did, and hey if she can do it so can you. The free tutorial is here.
But if you are still not up to making them yourself but really want some you can buy them here.
Thanks for looking,

April Tag Swap Tutorial

Here is the tag I made for Arlene's April tag swap. The theme was flowers/roses and the challenge was to use fabric.
I had such fun making this once the inspiration came. I am usually early with my swap but I am a bit behind this month.

You can watch me make this tag from beginning to end on Ustream on Friday April 16th Atlantic Standard time. ( GMT - 4 hours) . My channel name is NsSnowAngel.

Typically I would tell you about the making of this tag here is the post, but I will be recording the show so if you do miss it but want to know how it is made, you can catch it later.

Of course I had to use my flower. You can also learn how to make these on my channel or if that is not for you and you prefer to have them ready to use, you can also buy them from me here.

I hope the tag was worth the wait. I will ship them on Saturday after the show. I may send them rush since I am behind. I also am shipping them in a box this time because last month my flowers got a bit crushed.
Thanks,

Gift for Two of my Girls

For Easter, I made these name plates for two of my girls. They gave me ideas about what they wanted on them, and these are the result.

Sammy Jo, like orange so hers has lots of orange hues. She always is dressed gorgeous so I had to add the sentiment "Glam Girl". The rest is just random fun embellies.

Stephanie was given the nickname "step on me" by her great grandfather, when he was alive, so she opted for that name on the plate. Very few people are aloud to call her by that name. She also loves zebra stripes so there are those on the back ground. She chose greens and blues. I added some bling because she also loves to looks fabulous. and of course since the zebra striped aren't black I added a black flower.
I am working on getting my flowers ready to sell to those who want them ready made instead of having to make them. Keep an eye out for them.
Thanks for stopping by,
