Holy cow - what a sale!!

Wow - just a quick post tonight to let everyone know about the amazing online sale happening August 28 and 29th at https://aallscrapbookessentials-com.

Those who know me and those are getting to know me know that Aall Scrapbook Essentials in Kamloops, BC is where I get all of my scrapbook supplies.  The owner Tania Powell goes above and beyond when it comes to finding and bringing in items we request.  If she doesn't carry a particular thing you are looking for - you can be certain she will do her best to bring it in.  I know what I will be doing tomorrow - placing my online order!!!

I will be posting my lastest creation -  a Christmas shaker box with matching cards in the next few days.

See you soon.

Book box with mini albums

Hello everyone.  Today I want to share a project I finally finished.  A few months ago I took a course taught by Kelly Brandt in Kamloops, BC based on Ginger Ropp's (My Sisters Scrapper) design to create a book box and three mini albums.  I used the Graphic 45 book box, Graphic 45 French Country collectors addition as well as Tim Holtz's pulley wheels.

I hope you enjoy the quick video above showing this project.  As always, I strayed from the page adding wheels, flips, waterfalls and upside down elements.  I am inspired by many designers and enjoy following their tutorials but more often than not - I stray from the page and let the design take on whatever creative inspiration I have.  I look forward to reading your comments.

Just a Few More...

Here are few more of the cards I made with Authenique's Vintage Christmas and pieces from my stash.  I will say using any Christmas paper with black in it is a challenge for me but I am pretty pleased how these turned out.  Hope you enjoy.

Welcome

Welcome to my blog.  I look forward to sharing my passion for paper crafting with you - especially mini albums, scrapbooking, card making, calendars and anything thing else that pops into my creative brain.

I thought I would quickly share with you a Christmas card I am making with Authenque's Vintage Christmas.  Simple, quick and lovely.  Good thing as I have lots of Christmas cards to make.  I love anything with a good Santa face.  You will get to know what I mean by a good Santa face lol.
Thanks for visiting see you soon.
