The Scrapping Spot December Sneaks!

I had such a good time working with the December Scrapping Spot Kit!! Just wait until you see it. It is beautiful. I made four layouts, 2 cards and an altered item - all from one kit!! You can see kit sneak peeks here. The full reveal should be by the end of the week I think!! In the meantime - here are some peeks of the projects I completed:







I can;t wait to see what YOU create with this awesome kit!!

Treasured Scrapbooking Nov 15th Reveal

Here are the rest of my design team layouts for Treasured Scrapbooking. I worked with kit #2 - very fun - very vintage.

Scrap a lot Saturday

Wow - fun day - did some serious damage to my November Work In Progress kit!
OK - so I completed the two new two a week challenges at WillowTraders and five! Challenges at Treasured Scrapbooking's ChaChaChanges Crop!

BE BOLD mirror

I have wanted to do this project for awhile. I purchased a new Martha Stewart punch on Monday and that was all the inspiration I needed to put this mirror togehter. The flower is huge because the message is be bold - that flower is pretty bold and I love it!

The bottom rub on says:
When you embark
For strange places,
Don’t leave any of yourself
Safely on the shore.
Have the NERVE
To go into
Unexplored territory

The rub on on the left says:
Laugh at yourself
But don’t ever
Aim doubt at yourself
Be Bold


So go........BE BOLD!

2aw #4 - WIP kit + Halloween Clearance = Fun Plaque!

Good morning friends and happy Sunday!

I hope you all have a peaceful faith filled day!

Today I am going to share my 2AW #4 - Give Thanks! I used the wonderfully awesome Work in Progress November kit to make this fun plaque. I started with a 60% off plaque from AC Moore that said EEEEK!!! in halloween green/black/purple! I knew when I bought it that I wanted to alter it. The fun Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg papers were just the ticket - Trish's kits rock!

It's Baby Shower Day!

My sister's friend Sara is having a baby boy. My sister and her other friend Ronda are having a shower for Sara today. I was asked to make the favors. Here is a pic:
I purchased baby boy socks - filled them with hershey's kisses - tied the top with a big fat black with white polka dot ribbons and attached two pewter charms - one says it's a boy and the other is a pic of baby feet. The shower invitation had the pic of baby feet on it so I added a little pic of the feet as well. I hope she likes them.
I woke up this morning and realized I did nto have wrapping paper - so I turned to my scrappy supplies. I have a roll of black newspaper so I misted a chunk with gold, copper, green and blue - then stamped one of my favorite Crafty Secrets stamps - a little cherup all over it.Then I wrapped the pressie and thought about bows. If you know me well - you know it didn;t take long to pull out the tulle and big fat ribbon! I made my own bow and slapped a silk flower on top. Not very traditional baby shower, but I think it is pretty:

2AW #2 and #3

Wow - that is a confusing title! haha!

I missed number 1 - time got away from me.

Here is Challenge #2 - Scrap a grandparent - Dziadzi Time
Challenge #2 was to do a layout and include a leaf in celebration of Autumn. Jill also included an optional sketch which I think rocks:
Here is the sketch:
