Creating Keepsakes Magazine PUB~!

One HUGE Bucket List Item off!! So excited to shout out about my layout, Cousins, was published in a special issue of Creating Keepsakes Magazine called Scrapbooking Boys and Men...


Under Rough and Tough Techniques, my layout was featured. I had a lot going on but was a TON of FUN to create - no project requirements, no deadlines, etc. Just doing something I like to do and BAM! A call that fit the need :) Pictured are my handsome guys and my nephew from Tokyo hanging out at our favorite restaurant.


See that camera, talk bubble and film strip? Those images are part of A Jillian Vance Design (AJVD) Foto Frames Stamp Set. One of my favorite sets and it has a matching die template set ({die}velop Foto Frames & {die}alogue Bubbles Die Set) made exclusively for them by Spellbinders® Creative Arts.



Although my family doesn't understand what the big deal is about...well, you all know, right?! Thanks for letting me TOOT my horn here! Still floating on Cloud Nine! LOL!!

Thanks for stopping by!

JustRite: June 2013 Release - Day 4

Welcome to Day 4 of JustRite® Papercraft June 2013 Release! We are introducing another day of Samantha Walker Designs! This time, it's all about Halloween - Boo-tiful Cameos and Spider Web Background Stamp sets.


4日目の新スタンプセット(Boo-tiful Cameos and Spider Web Background Stamp)の紹介です。Samantha Walkerさんの デザイン ちょっと早めのハロウィンのテーマです。 次男の小さい時 M&Mキャンディーの衣装着て 近所を回ったことがありました。 この写真は、16年前です!はや!(笑)


Using a combination of Spellbinders die templates, I created a scene around Boo-tiful Cameos and Spider Web Background Stamp sets, and the picture of my youngest son when he was a baby. Loved how I could use the Spider Web Background Stamp tucked in the corner with the stamped spider and then glittered him up with Black Stickles! The picture is from film (not digital! LOL!) and held with SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES By 3L™ white photo corners so I can take it out any time and it also serves as an accent. From the same company, I used 3D Foam Squares to give dimension to the witch and some of the words.

Project Supplies:
JustRite Papercraft Stamps - Boo-tiful Cameos and Spider Web Background Stamp
Spellbinders® Creative Arts - Halloween Fence Scene and Shapes Dies, Pumpkin AccentsBonsai Tree, Witches Brew, Labels Six and Standard Circles SM

JustRite: June 2013 Release - Day 3

Welcome to Day 3 of JustRite® Papercraft June 2013 Release! We are introducing Samantha Walker Designs of Doilies & Lace and Sweet Lace Background Stamp sets. Just LOVE Samantha's work!!


今日はJustRite Papercraftの6月三日目の新スタンプセット(Doilies & Lace and Sweet Lace Background Stamp) の紹介です。 私は、Samantha Walkerさんの デザインが好きで、彼女とJustRiteのデザインコラボで、とても幸せです!(笑) 明るい色のカードを作りました。


For the largest circle image, I first stamped two different vibrant colors (Rose Bud and Bahama Blue). Then I cut/embossed with a combination of Standard Circles LG and Standard Circles SM. I fussy cut the Rose Bud die cut and placed it on top of the Bahama Blue die cut to create the center piece of the card front. The center circle was stamped in Bamboo Leaves ink, cut/embossed and adhered with 3D Foam Square.


For the card front, I used A2 Matting Basics A on my Sweet Lace background. I stamped one of the borders from the set and cut/embossed with Classic Edges One and placed at the bottom of the card front. Add twine and stamped sentiment from Get Well Labels Twenty set cut/embossed with Charmed I'm Sure die. A second look...
