Come into my world I've got to show you


Our assignment for Glitz this time around was to use the stamps. Boy do they have a lot of yummy stamps to play with. I love the roller stamps and dont get me started on the new wood mounted ones! I used all of the above on this page.






This page is about my adventures around the city I live in. I played a tourist for a few hours with my husband and got some pretty neat pictures. We had a fabulous time. I pulled the navy from my tights onto the page. I love navy and pink. Here is the Glitz products I used...

Wild and free-Stamp tin

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see what you create with these new fabulous lines

Novocaine our brains and we're out like lights

Have some Issues to tell you all about. Some Paper Issues...

Yes thats right, I am a new dt member for Paper Issues! Fabulous store and a group of fabulous ladies! Super excited to be on this team.


I have been playing with some studio calico Atlantic collection... Love the colors and embellishments. I think my favorite part of scrapbooking is the embellishments. Love them. Of course I love the paper too. Could be why I always walk out of the store with more paper then anything. Anywho back to the pages.



Loved collecting all the bits for these pages. So much fun. I really need to start going back to my studio to create. I have much more at my finger tips and can get a little more messy. I tend to be a mulitasker so I try to watch a movie or clear out the dvr while I am creating.

Where do you create?

Sparkles light with yellow icing

Oooh my friends I am super sad that I missed CHA. You see, I had planned to go but ya know life happens. Blah blah blah. BUT I did get to create with the new glitz lines! OOOOO let me tell you I had a blast. They are simply fabulous! I love them all! I didn't have a lot of time to create the 10 pages... I would've liked to add more details but it is what it is. I also was not able to take any pictures! BOOO! Hopefully at some point someone will have a few I can share.

For now here is some of my favorite bits from the new Glitz lines.




OH MY GOODNESS! Swoon worthy

So my friends I took vacation days for CHA but, well, ya know. So I did a bit of destashing, cleaning, and I found a page. This page. It wasn't technically finished. Or so I felt. But when I found it I thought to myself, looks done to me. SO, here ya go.

Lastly I have a page I did for whisker Graphics. I adore this company. The best twine and bitty bags around. I used twine, glassine bag and the new circle stickers.



I gesso'd the circles to mute the colors a bit. I worked with the Basic Grey Mint Julep line. I had been waiting to get my hands on that. SO much mint, navy, and pink. YUM!


SO I had 4 days off and I camped out with the kids in our backyard. Now for those who have been my friends for a while, you know all about this, but for those who are new let me enlighten you. Every year there is a national camp out in your backyard day. Everyone should participate! LOL! I try to every year. So this year it snuck up on me. Good thing is you dont have to do it on the specific day although it would be nice. Anyway this year we did it in July (it is usually June).


Kids had a smashing time. Even tho I ask myself a million times through the whole ordeal "why I do this?" I end the night with a full heart and a smile on my face.

More summer fun to come!

Lights will guide you home



Hi all! I had a lot of fun creating what I am about to share with you. I love making stuff for my house out of my scrapbooking supplies. I keep buying these little dollar spot frames at Target and Michaels and found this super pretty gold one. I really have no clue what I am going to do with them when I pick them up but figure I will find something eventually. Or at least I hope I will. HAHA! Anyway I love the CS stickers from Glitz. They say such beautiful things. My daughter Raven is going to be 18 soon and I wanted to give her something I made from the heart. Something that expressed how beautiful inside and out I thought she was. I never want her to forget that.


I think this little frame expresses that. I used lots of the Love you Madly line from Glitz. I also glittered a cut out butterfly. I placed some tiny mirrors so she can see herself when she looks at this and hopefully see what I see when I look at her. Beauty. We all tend to knock ourselves down and I want this to be a small reminder that those tiny voices are wrong.


Hope you enjoyed my little creation. CHA is in a few weeks! I get to play with some new Glitz soon! Cant wait.
