Happy New Year!!

Well a whole year gone... where did the time go? I cannot even believe that 2011 will be here in about eight hours!! Better start thinking of your New Year's resolution (if you make those, lol)! Anyway, hope everyone has a great New Year filled with lots of happiness!! I will be busy scrapping tomorrow, I am trying to get a book listed by Sunday night... I really love the way the book is looking and if I have time, I will share a photo tomorrow :0)

Have fun tonight everyone!!

Christmas album complete!

I have finally finished this album! I am not sure why it took me so long, but so glad to have it listed on ebay. There are a few photos below, but the rest you see here. I am loving the paper from Teresa Collins. Not only is the paper beautiful, but the quality is fabulous -- just makes me happy :o)

Lots of different flowers, Prima roses, Maya Road velvet and the green resin (really like those)!

This trim is gorgeous!! I am not sure who makes it... think it could be Webster's Pages or

Fancy Pants.

some glittery green and silver picks, a little sparkle is always a good thing :o)

I was really hoping to get another holiday album done, just not sure there is enough time before Christmas. The time is ticking down... I may have time to squeeze in a layout, but not sure.

Hope everyone has a great week and gets some time to scrap!!

candy cane goodness

I have been so busy with all things holiday that I have fallen behind on my posting. I wanted to share this layout that I have up for auction on ebay (see all pics here). I love this "Believe" layout with all it's candy cane goodness :o) I used another Martha Stewart Around the Edge punch -- I think I could buy everyone of these! I thought that the punch really mimicked the swirls on the green ornament.

Lots of sparkle on this one and some sugared fruit picks :o)

I am still working on a Christmas album (almost done) and I am hoping to have it listed on ebay by Sunday night. I will try and give a sneak peek here tomorrow of the cover. The album is really beautiful... I used Teresa Collins Noel line, just gorgeous paper!

Hope everyone has a happy week. Stay warm, it is freezing here!

Christmas crafting

I am well into my Christmas crafting! I have so many projects that I want to complete for ebay and two custom orders -- yikes. Hope I can fit it all in before Christmas. All my shopping and decorating still needs to be done as well (I better get moving). Anyway, I wanted to take a minute and share two listings I have this week on ebay. The first is this adorable mini album titled "Believe" -- you can see the entire book here. I just love this vintage style paper from Pink Paislee... their products do not disappoint!!

The next is this layout that I created with Webster's Pages paper, another wonderful company with the most amazing papers! I have added beautiful Prima flowers, berries and some glittery leaves -- this layout makes me happy :-) See more photos of it here.

I will be posting more items in the coming weeks, keep checking back! I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

time for some green and red!

I have cleared my desk of all the Autumn colors and have started some of my Christmas projects! I have so many ideas in my head and wish that I could work faster to get them all done :0) Here is a layout that I have listed right now on ebay (see all the photos here). I do love the traditional green and red colors, and the music note paper is just perfect!! I have also been using a few of my new Martha Stewart - Around the Page punches (this one is my very favorite). I will be adding some more of them to my Christmas list :0) This page is really beautiful and would be great in an easel on a shelf or framed in a shadow box! Keep checking back on ebay for more holiday listings.

November 15th?

So, I am wondering how it is, that it is already November 15th? Time seems to be flying by -- I wanted to stop and take a minute and post some photos I have taken in the past few weeks. I love to take snapshots around the house and scrap them from time to time, just so my kids can see what our lives looked like! And since I had been thinking about this lately and have been so inspired by all the Fall colors... I thought of the idea for this little mini album

(see it on ebay here).

Love this fuzzy spider!

These pumkins have now been carved, but I could not bare to touch the white one -- lol!

Julia collected all of these on our nature walk one day. She made a "leaf" arrangement with them :o)

A little pumpkin farm outing.

I hope everyone has a fabulous week!

a little eye candy

For my birthday my dear sister in law gave me a gift card to my favorite scrapbook store. So on Sunday I made a little visit to our not so local store (it is about an hour away) and I thought I would share a few photos of what came home with me. TRIMS! They had so many beautiful ones to choose from, I could have bought them all! The red velvet, and the pink and white small roses are Maya Road. I honestly cannot tell you who the rest are made by. They had already been trimmed and hung out for sale. I do think the pink and cream scalloped lace are Fancy Pants. Anyway, love them all! I have so many ideas spinning in my head and I can't wait to use them!

These Maya Road roses are just too pretty!!

I also picked up the new Echo Park Everybody Loves Christmas paper... just really fun bright colors, thought this would make a really cute mini album!

Here are a few other miscellaneous papers I picked up and a few embellishments.

How cute is this little chipboard slider by LYB? Think I will be working this into a page. Alright, I better get working -- lol!
