Bella - To Do List


Finally another project finished. I have just been in a slump all week. I think mainly so tired that I just couldn't focus. While in Montana this last Christmas, I took this Bella image along with many others that had been RAKs and my prismacolor markers and enjoyed many cold nights in front of the wood stove coloring images. So peaceful and relaxing.

Anyway, here is what I do know about this project:
Stamp: Bella
Ink: Unknown
Paper: DCWV dp
Accessories: Prismacolor markers, ribbon, brads.

Page 2


Another page finished. I haven't had time to do anymore as it has been crazy at work and I have been totally exhausted when I get home from work, but I have been able to spend a bit of time playing with my new pazzle.

The family name Smalley is another pazzles creation. I am having fun learning this machine and hope to learn more as the next few weeks come and go.

New Scrapbook Page


I am back to working on an album for my sister-in-law to give to another daughter. When my nieces saw the books that I had done for my husband they thought they were great. So, I am doing more condensed versions for them.
Here is the first page that I have finished for this album. All lettering was cut with my new Pazzles machine.
Love working the heritage photos. They can be so interesting.

Rainy Day II


Just had to do the second copy of this image. We have had so much rain the last few weeks, at least for this part of the country. So, I did the second image and did it in a totally different color scheme this time. And I had to include the yellow this time, it was just screaming for it.

Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Georgia Pacific White, Unknown Green, American Crafts Wren
Accessories: Brads, Prismacolor Markers

Rainy Day


Another play night. And still time to play some more after sharing this card. This was part of a challenge on a group I belong to. Each person was sent the same image, and it is fun to see what everyone comes up with using this image. It seemed everyone was using yellow, I decided not to use yellow, that was harder than you would think. Kept trying to grab the yellow pens.

Henry Image


It has been a while since I've been around. Last week was just crazy, no time for stamping at all. Then this weekend I was able to go to the Scrapbook Expo in Costa Mesa, CA. Oh so much fun. My big purchase there was The Pazzle. I have been wanting this machine for quite some time and I now have it. I have spent part of yesterday and all day today trying to learn this machine, so much fun.

Anyway, I decided it was time to get something going again. I received this image as a challenge, we all received the same image and it has been interesting to see what everyone comes up with.

Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black

Winnie The Pooh


I have been wanting to play on my clean craft table all day. Finally had a chance this evening. I was really wanting to grab one of the new House Mouse stamps and my hand landed on this Winnie the Pooh & Friends stamp. Wasn't sure I would like how this turned out, but really pleased with it. I tried something new with this one. A stay put bow. This bow is not going to go slip sliding. Here is the link if you would like to try this: Stay Put Bow.
