Lifetimemoments friday 1-30

Its friday reveal day and the theme was dates!!

My crop-mates used to laugh at me because I am always compelled with a date on every layout - i've probably got the world's biggest collection of date stamps. :)

hip hop thursday 1-29

Welcome everyone to Unity Stamp Company's Hip Hop Thursday for 1-29!!! Its cha week and so exciting. I was lucky to spend a day at the show and come back with tons of pictures of show samples. the designers knocked themselves out and each booth was just filled with complete eye candy. I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the product in the stores so we can start to play. The copic class was so much fun. I learned a ton and yay! I am now certified. I can't wait to sit down and play with my new techniques.

If you haven't joined me from Chelsea's blog, start at Angela's blog and do the blog hop with us!!

My first card is SC211, sketch 211 at SCS, featuring the She's a Princess stamp.



My second card uses the January Kit of the Month, Love Etc, with the beautiful flocked velvet paper from SEI, the month card from Luxe, and more Fancy Pants felt.

CHA 2009



There is something very exciting about being "at CHA" - so full of energy and hope and products.... AHHHHH. I spent the day meeting people and taking pictures - they're being premiered at Lifetime Moments. As always, for the majority of the products I saw, the impact of them never hits me til I see the samples made with them - and then I get totally inspired. I took over 780 pictures of mostly samples before my battery died, so check it out....

some more layouts

The new Little Yellow Bicycle Love Letters line, the Luxe Its About Time line, and Unity Stamp Company's new Be Owl Mine and Love Grows kits




The second one is just me playing around with the cool "outline your letter stickers" technique inspired by Tracy Hudson... This is Sassafrass paper. (sorry for the poor pix. I'm too lazy to redo it right now. Sorry. :( My adrenaline rush kind of disappeared...)

some blessed creative time

after such a tough week at work, it is such a release to get lost in my ink and paper....

My first piece is an entry into a creative journal challenge at lifetimemoments. Week 1 - what is your personality?

This uses scraps, and a bunch of paint, and a stamp from the GROW kit from Unity Stamp Company

My next piece works on some of my scrapping goals for this year, which is to get back to the story telling vs. focusing too much on the artistic elements. My son's "what i'm thankful for" essay for Thanksgiving this year. The original will get tucked in behind the layout in the scrapbook. This uses the School Rock Star and the January Kit of the Month from Unity Stamp Company, and the Basic Grey granola line.
