Turtle journal


This turtle journal was made with Club Scrap's Collections kit. I had this paper from another co. that looked like sand and then I stamped turtle prints on it, used stampbord and stamped the letters and went over them with Ranger's Glossy Accents. Then did the shaker box. This one was fun to make!

The fort



This is another layout using Club Scrap's Color in Black and White kit. My son and my niece were making a fort with anything and everything they could find in the yard that morning. So I got out my camera and took pictures of the process and finished project. They were so adorable doing that!

Surf's Up journal


This journal was made for a party girl. When I think of party, I think of the beach in the summer, so that is how I made this journal. I used Club Scrap's Surf's Up kit from 2006, added embellishments and ribbon. I love how both stampbord pieces turned out!

Quad journal

This journal was made for a woman who liked to go ride quads with her boyfriend. So, I used silver from Club Scrap's Time and Space kit, black and red from the Wheels and Sprockets kit, ivory from the Ivory Elegance kit. Then added flowers and the stamp of the tire tracks is from Wheels and Sprockets too.

Paisley layout


This layout was done with Club Scrap's Paisley kit from March 2006.

Nature's Wonder's journal


This journal I made with Club Scrap's Nature's Wonders kit. I added the stampbord, but used a stamp that came with the kit, also added flowers and ribbon.

Love Layout


This layout I did with Club Scrap's Color in Black and White kit. Everything on this layout is from that kit except the flowers at the bottom.

LMCTW card



This is a card I made for my Aunt recovering from a knee replacement. The papers I used are from Club Scrap's Let Me Count the Ways kit from Feb. 2006. The fern stamp is from Club Scrap's Refresh kit and the Stone saying stamp is also from Club Scrap.

Secret Sister journal


I made this journal for my secret sister last year. I used Club Scrap's Collections kit. I added silk flowers and her initials at the bottom.

Wild Wild West journal



This journal I made with Club Scrap's Wild Wild West kit. The fibers and stars are from the kit as well, but the ribbon I got at Joann's. The back of the journal has a piece of paper on it from Club Scrap's Pets kit. I used stampbord on this journal too. The horse stamp on this journal and the English Garden journal I got at a stamp store here where I live.

English Garden Journal


This journal I made with Club Scrap's English Garden kit. The accents I put on were silk flowers, ribbon, and stampbord that I created especially for this journal. The stamps I used with the stampbord are from Club Scrap's Wild Wild West kit.

Farmers Market Journal


This journal was made with Club Scrap's Oct. 2006 kit, Farmers Market. I added silk flowers and gingham ribbon, but everything else is from the kit.

This is a layout with Club Scrap's Color in Black and White kit from 2006. The photos are of my niece taking her karate class. Isn't she adorable?!

Coffee card front



I made this coffee card front for a swap we did. I made it with Club Scrap's Mocha Java Remix collection and unmounted stamps.

Refresh sympathy card



This is a sympathy card I made for a dear friend who lost a family member. I made it with Club Scrap's Refresh kit from February 2007.

Asian Artisan Journal


Last year for Christmas, I made journals for people to give as gifts. This is one I did with the Asian Artisan kit from Club Scrap.

Asian Artisan LO


This is a layout I did with Club Scrap's Asian Artisan kit. I used the unmounted stamps from that kit too. The embellishments, flowers, fiber strip are not from the kit though. The vellum quote is from a quote stack.

Arizona Beauty






This is my first layout in over a year! Hooray! I just had to scrap these pictures on this kit. This is the Great Outdoors kit from Club Scrap for October 2007. I used just the kit, embellishments and all. I think it turned out so nice. The only thing I don't like is when I scan the images to my computer, I always have to crop a little part of them off because I have to turn the pages while scanning so the image looks uneven. The first page is mounted on a taupe color and the second page is mounted on the red. These pictures are from the Botanical Gardens here in Arizona.

New pics of LO's, cards, and projects coming soon

I will be posting some pics of layouts, cards, and projects I have done in the past here very soon. I feel it is important for me to do that. Oh, and I did actually complete a layout yesterday morning, amazing considering that I have not actually scrapped a page in over a year. Been doing other projects and things. I just had to do this layout with Club Scrap's new Great Outdoors kit. Pics coming soon!

Anything goes puzzle piece


I decided my theme for the anything goes puzzle swap would be coffee! I have some real beautiful alcohol inks for that theme. The alcohol inks are from Ranger and the trio is called "cabin cupboard". Also I used my Stampin' Up coffee stamps, "what's brewin'? and "espresso yourself". I think it turned out so incredibly cute!

Puzzle Swap Piece


I entered a puzzle swap in my Club Scrap chat group. This is the one I did on "Fall". Each piece is the same, so of course I am only attaching on piece. For this puzzle, I first did the background in Ranger Alcohol inks, terra cotta, bottle, and denim. Then I stamped my image with a lighter color pigment ink from Club Scrap. The stamp is from Club Scrap's Farmers Market Jr. kit from October 2006. Then I added the orange flower from Oriental Trading and the gold leaf brad I purchased from Club Scrap. I then covered the piece in Glitter Glue. My last touch was the dragonfly brad. I had a lot of fun making this puzzle, now I have another one to make which is "Anything goes". That will be lots of fun!

Slide Mailer with Club Scrap's Bistro Kit colors



I have been wanting to try to make a slide mailer, I bought some slides and mailers awhile ago and just didn't know what I wanted to do with them. So, I got them out and tried to cover the mailer with paper from Club Scrap's Bistro kit, but it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. So, I went to the craft store and bought some paints that matched the colors in the kit. Painted the mailer very carefully since I wanted it to look professional. I had to paint and repaint the sides many times, but in the end, it turned out so cute. I used the stamps from the kit and did some beading, topped it off with a flower and a black crystal and that was it. For the slides, I used Oregano Adirondack Alcohol ink on the back, and stamped the trees with one of the stamps from the kit and Stazon Jet Black ink pad and then used silver embossing powder around the edges. I really couldn't think of more to do to it and thought anything else would take away from the cuteness of it. I LOVE the stamps from the Bistro kit. They are like sketches and are absolutely the cutest when stamped on whatever craft you are doing. Please feel free to comment on it and let me know if there is anything more you would have done to it. I love feedback like that.
