Hello scrappers,

Only more sleeps until Christmas!!!! Are you all ready or just running around trying to get everything done like me. I still have some wrapping to finish, cleaning, paper work...and so much more before the Holidays. And then almost 2 weeks vacation...lots of relaxing time I hope.

Did you check out Creative Scrapper's sketch blog for the reveal this morning? If not, well here is my reveal. I just love how the chipboard letteres and gears look with the alcohol inks. What do you think?




Supplies: Pattern Paper (Bobunny), Cardstock (prismatic, bazzill), chipboard gears (Mayaroad), Alcohol inks, Journaling sprout (Jillibean Soup), Marker (Le pen)

That is it for now.

Hello Scrappers,

I don't scrapbook pink very often, but I really love this paper from Pink Paislee. Here is the layout I did for a Scrapbooking Gone Wild class last Thursday. This is me at 2. We had so much fun in the new class/crop room.



My husband and I went to Ottawa the last week of November. We had such a great time. We went to see an Ottawa Senators' game. We were right behind the players bench. What great seats!!!! We also went to the best Thai restaurant, the Parliament, the Market, on a carriage ride and finished our Christmas shopping. What a great relaxing trip. Looking forward to going again!!! We just love Ottawa. It's a beautiful city.



That is it for now.

Reveal Day!!!

Hello Scrappers,

How many of us get to follow our dream? Well I can truly say I have. I never imagined being able to work in the scrapbook industry. I truly love having a scrapbook store and teaching classes and especially inspiring others in this very special hobby. Last week, I celebrated Scrapbooking Gone Wild's 1 year anniversary. I had such an amazing week and am sooooo thankful to have met so many people in the past year. Thank you so much to everyone who celebrated with me!!!!

I had another great sketch to play with at Creative Scrappers. Here is my take on the sketch. Go check out the other amazing layouts from all the other designers at Creative Scrappers.

Reveal Day at Creative Scrappers!!!!

Hello scrappers,

I couldn't wait to show you this reveal. I just love the pattern paper line I used for this layout. It's the Man about Town line from Upsy Daisy. I have also been loving playing with Distress Stickles. Do you use a product once and then just can't seem to stay away from it. Well that has been my thing with Distress Stickles and also Sugar Coated Glitter. I have been adding Stickles to any flower I add to a layout and I have been playing with the Sugar Coated Glitter on tags. Hope you enjoy today's inspiration.

Here is the reveal from Creative Scrappers. Don't forget to go check the other designs...pretty awesome.



Have you ever bought products you have no idea what to do with??? I know I have done that more times than not...lol I just love to show people what to do with those products. Here are tags I did last Saturday at a crop to demo a few products. Hope you enjoy them. Can you take a guess at the products I used????



That is it for now.

Reveal Day at Creative Scrappers!!!!

Hello Scrappers,

What a great day today!!! It was a very productive day. My husband offered to bring our son to swimming lessons this morning so I could stay home and try to organize a few rooms in the house. In the process, I also got laundry done. I was able to clean our storage room, go through my son's clothes and toys to give away, clean the store from my class yesterday morning, go through my son's craft's from the past 2 years and so much more...yes it was a very productive day.

Hello scrappers,

I feel so much better this afternoon. All the family is finally vaccinated for the H1N1 Virus. Since my husband is a family physician and sees a lot of people with flu symptons, we thought it was very important to get the entire family vaccinated. It's been a little stressful in St George since the outbreak last week. Our schools have been closed and also lots of daycares. Keep healthy!!!

I have been working on a few layouts this past week. Here is a layout I did for a class last week and it is one of my favorites. I hope you like it!!!



I also gave a class on a Halloween layout. I used Glimmer Mist on this one and also Tim Holtz masks. Enjoy!!!!





Don't forget my first reveal for the Creative Scrappers Design Team next Sunday, November 8th. Here is a sneak peek...shhhhhhh!!! Don't tell Kristine!!!!



That is it for now.
Thanks for stopping by.
