Good day all of my blogger friends!! I can't believe it has been a week since my last update..where or where has the time gone. I have been busy scrapping away in my room and feeling very creative..and a little bit stressed as well LOL! Just Cre8 had a fabulous online crop this weekend and it was a blast!! Unfortunately some family problems got in the way of me devoting 100 % of my time but it was enjoyed by so many of our new and returning forum members!
In other news I mentioned that I received first box of Collage Press Goodies and got a chance to play with them finally. Collage Press has done their official DT introduction and we have had our first reveal - I love what everyone has done with the products - there is so much talent on this team - you can see their work HERE.
This is my layout done with mostly Jackson Lodge Line..and a bit of Camden thrown in for good measure ;)
Material List is:
Jackson Lodge -Sparks (side 2)
Jackson Lodge - Blue Springs (side 2)
Jackson Lodge - wildflower 0273 (also small version available in Crafting Pad)
Jackson Lodge Crafting Pad - White scenery Paper ( used for title letters)
Jackson Lodge Crafting Pad - Cream and Brown Distressed Paper
Jackson Lodge Crafting Pad - Green paper
Jackson Lodge Sticker Letters
Camden Crafting Pad - Brown photo mat paper.
Collage Press Office Policy Acrylic Stamps
Other
Bazzill White Cardstock
Fancy Pants Chipboard flourish
Fiskars Lace Punch
Making Memories Acrylic Flower
Orange Rhinestone
Adhesive and brown marker
I also was asked to do
Sketch # 69 over at Got Sketch and had lots of fun with this one. I just absolutely love doing girl layouts - it makes up for all of the testosterone in my home I think.
If you haven't' been to Got Sketch before head on over and check it out. Valerie has now created a
gallery for you to upload your layouts based on her sketches - I think it is going to filled with lots of inspiration very quickly!
Here is my interpretation of Sketch # 69.
Yesterday I was pleasantly surprised to open my email at the fantastic site
SCRAP SCENE ( if you aren't on their mailing list - go - NOW and sign up!!) Lots of really cool inspiration from this site and its sort of a whats happening in the scrapping world. Well how surprised was I that my scrap room was featured on the site!! It is sort of embarrassing really - like I sit here and drool over some of the rooms I see - and it is my biggest pet peeve that we OWN a custom cabinetry shop - but I do not have my dream scrap room....but on the other hand I am glad that I can inspire others who have a tiny little corner of their basement to make the most of it as well!
A few weeks when my room was featured on the Crafty Blog website I offered up a RAK and drew for a winner ( you can view the post
HERE)...I am sad to say that I never heard back from the winner and since some people think the rak is open again ( because of the link from scrap scene) I am going to re-draw for the book again...I will leave it open until Friday Evening at 12:00 midnight EST. Make sure to sign up if you haven't' already!!
...well that pretty much has it for today. I have a cute little mini album I created with Collage Press products for the crop at Just Cre8. I promise I will post this with instructions when I get a sec....oh and I almost forgot..there is more scrappy news on the horizon that should be lots of fun...stayed tuned for that when I can share with everyone :)
Hugs everyone and have a great Day!
Love your room! Especially the chandelier!
