Halloween Mini Album

Hi Everyone,
About two weeks ago Generations Crafting had a great deal on the Basic Grey Eerie collection. The kit had everything in it that was available in the Eerie Collection. It was a limited time offer and I’m thrilled I got it. There was enough in the kit to make three or 4 mini’s…I had so much fun working on it last weekend, it was so nice and relaxing to sit and play and mess with stuff…..I’m listing the supplies I used below, but there are so many that I’ll have to link to them at another time (It’s 6:30am and I’m getting ready for work, so time is limited).

Here is a video

supplies: Basic Grey Eerie collection, Prima Flowers, Tim Holtz Alterations Die, UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel), Tulle, Black Silk Ribbon, Binding Rings, Tim Holtz Grunge, Green Silk Ribbon, Celebrations mini sack, Sizzix Retro Fram, Webster pages Pleated Ribbon, Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge, Lindy’s Stamp Gang Halloween Sprays, Prima Halloween Bling, Prima Bling, Scallop Envelope, Spot and Dots Cuttlebus Embossing folder, Tim Holtz Picket Fence on the Edge Die

and a few photos:

Have a great Friday and enjoy your weekend….

Tuesdays Tips~Thinking Inking

Hi Everyone…Happy Tuesday…

Just a few things to share…I’m really trying to get myself back on my regular posting schedule, life has just been a little busy with work, family, and the usual. Now that we seem to finally have our back to school routine down, I’m hoping to get a little bit more organized….

Tuesday Tip: Last summer Jennifer McGuire did a 9 week series on inking…(Click HERE). Now she is doing an 8 week series called Holiday Thinking Inking.
If you are just getting into stamping and playing with different types of inks, you have to check it out. She offers lots of awesome ideas and tips.

Off to start my day,
Have a great Tuesday….

Receipt Holder

Hi Everyone,
What a fantastic weekend. The weather was absolutely beautiful….Saturday we watched one of our nieces play soccer and then did a little halloween custom shopping. Ethan decided to be a ninja this year….

Today’s my Design Team project for BlueMoonScrapping. I used the 7 Gypsy receipt holder, I think this is gonna look great in my kitchen with pictures or notes (or receipts). I tried not to really glue anything down to the tray since I’m thinking I can certainly change out the papers for holidays. I hope you like it…

Enjoy today’s video…

It’s back to our regular projects. I don’t know about you but World Card Making Day got me pumped and I’m in the crafting mood….Last night I pulled out all my supplies to start a Halloween mini album (I’ll film a video or two as I go) and after WCMD I pulled out my Cri-Kits supplies…
