Graduation Mini Album...

We played Saturday morning at CraftFancy where I taught a class. It was pouring rain when we started so it was a good time to create!

So here's the inside of the album:






















Supplies: 6x6 artist canvas panel, RangerInk Acrylic Dabber & Distressed Ink, Bazzill Big Brad & Cardstock, Maya Road Sheer Male & Felt Accents & Mini Chipboard Frame, Making Memories & Sandylion pattern papers, Hero Arts Stamps, Clearsnap Cat's Eyes and last but not least, die cutters - Spellbinder Wizard, Quickutz and Sizzix.

I had such a great time with the ladies in the class...lots of laughter! I hope they took home a couple of new techniques that they can use over and over again! Thanks ladies for coming out!

Come visit me at....

Spellbinders' blog - on Savvy Saturday, I was embossing a wine bottle netting to make a Father's Day card. I know I know first flowers now netting! NO, I'm not going crazy! LOL! Just want to show how cool this tool is!









Sitting on fence for one? Well, get off and buy this one! Can I just say that there are some AWESOME die templates coming up this summer?! That's all I'm going to say...OK, another word comes to mind...EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!

Also you need to see what my dear friend, Beth, did with the embossing technique in a follow-up post today....just amazing what she can do! Hate journaling? Well, see how she did hers and I am so doing this! LOL! Thanks Beth...I'm scraplifting!

-----------------------------------

TaDa Creative Studios - for their TaDa Technique, I am fussing over some cuttings! It seems like I hear about Fussy Cutting from the message boards and galleries. So take a look at what I did for a page which was published in Love My Memories ("LoveMemo") - Japan's first scrapbook magazine by Japanese scrapbook pioneer, Emi Kume.














So come on over and visit us...oh, and leave comments! We love comments! LOL!!

A blogging kind of day!!

WHEW! Is all I can write....heehee!!!

I had the opportunity to post on two wonderful company blogs today! I am thrilled and exhausted but happy!
















First is Spellbinders! I've been pounding flowers the entire day on Sunday...too juicy, too bland and just right! Who knew dandelions can be useful?! LOL!! The results reminded me of sunshine! So I made a page on a sunny summer day...perfect!











The second is for TaDa Creative Studios. We were long overdue in introducing our newest design team member, Katie Renz! So what a perfect opportunity to get her onboard with our readers! Again, welcome Katie!!!

OK....I'm off the blog trail....for today! LOL! I'll post another on Spellbinders on Saturday...hmm, what should it cover?! Stay tuned folks!
