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:
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
Idea Folder:
This is a variation on my Designer Folder. In it I keep my ideas for future projects. Check out the video for more details: http://youtu.be/oZo4jOuQp-E
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
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.
Travel Album
This is my latest album- a travel album. Each page has a pocket with a flap (saw a You Tube Video that shows you how to make these). Each page has an interactive element for picture and journaling storage. The second last page has a really cool double slider pocket. Check this out on my You Tube Channel at http://youtu.be/HK7bqBptGLs.
Update on Projects:
I have not posted anything in the last week or so because I have been trying to complete my Travel Journal. I am also thinking of making some detailed tutorial videos on DVD that would be actual workshops. Since my background is teaching I thought I would try my hand at making DVDs that maybe I could sell on line for specific projects. I would really like to do some weekday workshops out of my own home for small groups of interested individuals. I put out a feeler on Facebook but have only had one person show any interest so not really sure how to get the word out there. I am open to suggestions.
