Christmas Card Holder

This is a Christmas Card holder that I made for the Design Team at The Crafty Scrapper.  We were suppose to make something (anything) for Christmas.  So, this is the item that I made.  I used a 10" X 10" canvas and used modeling paste on the upper half of the canvas.  I used white cardstock on the lower portion and added flat white lace with pearls.  I then found from Fabscraps "Seasons Greetings which I painted and used glitter.  I used three various snowflakes from Maya Roads which I painted and used glitter as well.  I took flowers from Prima and Petaloo and added to the lower left corner, used stickles, and waaalaaa!!!  I hope you like this and much as I did putting it all together.  It only took about two hours to make.  I found some Christmas cards that I made several years ago and placed them into the pocket as an example.

Here are a list of items that I used:

Modeling Paste
White flat lace - TCS
Prima - Flowers
Petaloo - Flowers
Maya Roads - Snowflakes
Making Memories - Blue, Green, Red, and Gold Paint
Stampin Up - Stampin Glitter - Dazzling Diamonds
EK Success - Pearls
Glitter Letters

Great, Great Grandmother / Beautiful

These two layouts are more that I have been working on for my niece Lindsay.  Brooke and Austin are two of her children with their great, great, grandmother at her 100th birthday.  The bottom layout is her three children at Easter.  I wish my photography skills were better but the photos are really much better in person.  I used a lot of items on each layout.  I used modeling paste, drywall tape, distressed ink, and lots, and lots of other goodies.

Thanks for Looking!!!

Eddie & Me

I love this piece!  This is a photo of my husband and I a few years ago.  I have seen many videos of using scrapbook supplies and adding it to canvas.  However, this is my first attempt at it and I believe it  looks pretty good.  The latest video I watched was Gabrielle Pollacco.  Her work is so amazing!  I found lots of goodies in my stash with various lace, paints, etc.  There is way too much to say exactly what I used but at least you can get the idea.  There is still room for improvement which I do intend to explore.  I found this idea to be completely amazing!!

Thanks for looking!!

Seaside / Remember This Day / together / Forever

These four layouts are for my neice (Lindsay) album.  She asked me to put together a 12 X 12 album for her son Austin who is 12 (I believe).  I used so many different items and then added lots of goodies.  These layouts took my awhile to complete.

You see - about 4 weeks ago it had rained and I decided to go out on our covered patio and then I noticed the little bird feeder was empty.  I was barefooted and stepped out onto our deck which has been sealed but it was still wet and I forgot that it becomes rather slicky!  Obviously I took a nasty fall and both feet came off of the desk and I fell onto my right arm near my shoulder.  I first thought it was dislocated but obviously I could move it.  I went to the hospital and lucky for me it was not broken but all the tendons, muscles, legimates, are all swollen.  It still hurts to lift my arm but it is coming along.  At least it has not hindered my scrapbooking!!  LOL

Thank you for much for looking!!  Hope you have a wonderful day!
