Complete an all day workshop for some friends on mine yesterday. They created a mini album and I think the workshop was a great success. They have asked me to do some more in the future. You can see a very short video of this workshop at this link:

Scrap Album

Scrap Album:

This album was created with random scraps of patterned paper. It took about one hour to complete. I was not concerned with matching papers; I just used them as they were, created pockets with some, and added tags from ones I had left over from other projects. See the video at http://youtu.be/2ZJp5FZOL2Y 

 

 
 




 
 




 
 
 
     
 

Steam Punk Album

Steam Punk Album:

This album is made from three file folders. My theme was Steam Punk which is a cross between vintage Victorian and tech. I make the album in the grunge style because I think it suits Steam Punk. You can see the album in more detail in my video at http://youtu.be/er2DNUEcV7o

Shopping Spree

Shopping Spree:

Okay...yesterday I went out to just pick up a couple of things and about $150.00 later, I came home with another stash of stuff. Will the madness never end? I cannot control myself when I go hunting for supplies. There is always something new and wonderful to be found and to be had! They should do a special edition of that television program "Hoarders" - they could call it "Hoarders Special Edition for Scrapbooking Junkies". I am sure there are many of us who could be featured on this program. Oh well- you only live once. As I have told many people, when I pass on just scatter my ashes in the aisles of Michael's Craft Store!

Rubber Stamp Storage

Rubber Stamp Storage

I am sharing my method for storing and locating my rubber stamps. If you are like me, you probably have many, many stamps and when you are looking for the special one, you simply cannot find it. Well my method helps me to quickly locate the perfect stamp for my project. Check out the video at http://youtu.be/MwcUa5yrrE4.
