Just about a Boy....

I find often that my work gets girly and fru fru since I have 2 delightful little girls to make my pages pretty with loads of bling and flowers I often have a hard time finding great "boy" paper to work with... Well this post is all about My Boy and the fabulous "boy" paper I found for the pictures that my friend and fabulous Photographer Paula took of my son. Thank you Paula! Her business is called Heartland Studio. The Stylin' layout will be on display at Scrap-A-Lot.

Rhianna's Album update

After searching all over for the right binder rings to bind Rhianna's album I have given up on finding 4" rings and bound it with grunge board and ribbon... I'm happy with how it turned out.

Welcome!!!

Hello and welcome to my blog, thanks so much for stopping by! I have never had a blog before so please bare with me as I stumble my way through this process... I have been asked many times over to please start a blog and after some poking and pushing I have agreed to give it a try. I want to say, I'm just a girl who LOVES to scrapbook, I love everything about it from the paper to the fun and funky techniques! When new products come into the store it's like christmas opening all the boxes loaded with beautiful papers, twinkling embellishments and of coruse all the gadjets!!! So I will openly admit I'm an old school scrapper... Although I have been designing and scrapbooking for close to 15 years I only got my first "machine" (a Big Shot) last year and I LOVE it! I use it all the time. I enjoy the process of creating, techniques are my favorite part, sprays, inks, paints, distress stains, glams, glazes, gesso... you get the idea. I love to get dirty with my work LOL I enjoy fussy cutting and rarely pass up a paper that is begging to be cut apart, I'm sure I own close to every spray on the market and if I don't well then I WANT it! I really like to create my own embellishments with the paper. I believe the sky is the limit and ANYONE can design, we all have a uniqueness to our style and they are all great! I'm surrounded by so many talented women and inspiration. I hope I can inspire some of you to create your own amazing designs.
