I’m just not talking about bling and rhinestones, but the actual paper from Glitz Designs. :)  I’ve put together this chipboard mini book kit that is currently available at Scrapbook Central. GREAT for stocking stuffers, brag books and gifts for that special relative that lives far away. Using Fancy Pants Chipboard, Glitz Paper, Maya Road [...]

If you ever travel abroad or like the international flair on your projects, definitely get some clear stamps from Dove of the East. Beautiful in their detail and perfect for cards and embellishments, these stamps bring China, Japan, India and Russia right to you! Check out the ScrapFriends review and other great projects using the [...]

I should come up with a clever t-shirt saying that has something to do with a love of cardstock! There’s just nothing better than a wonderful solid color of paper with a texture. Easy to go with everything, yet sometimes overlooked, cardstock is as necessary to scrapbooking as adhesive, don’t you think? My ode to [...]

I really like Stampin’ Up! stamps, but mounted on the blocks just takes up too much space. So, I pull the rubber from the sticky pad and put them on EZ Mount cling for use with acrylic blocks. That ends up leaving many very nice empty wood blocks with no use. Well, I have created [...]

One of my design team kits this month from Scrapbook Central was the Summer CHA release of “Offbeat” from BasicGrey. Terribly cute with it’s birds, fruits and retro geometric shapes, you can’t help but have fun with it! The paper is single-sided and has alpha and elements stickers to accent in typical BG fashion.

Working with MME on a recent ScrapFriends review, I fell in love with the Wild Asparagus line. I honestly hadn’t purchased any of the original Wild Asparagus release a couple years ago, so working with this collection was the first time for me. I have enjoyed other MME’s releases - Tres Jolie in particular, and [...]

Creative Imaginations has a fun take on the aging males out there with their newer Old Guys Rule Collection. Containing witty sticker sayings, die cut chipboard, metal charms and of course patterned paper, the collection just oozes masculinity. Browns and blues are the theme along with “woody” station wagons and surfboards, all reminiscent of the 50’s [...]

I love the taste of tea, usually black not herbal, with a little Sweet n’Low - total YUM! It’s my touch of paradise throughout the day. Simply amazing how something so simple provides such comfort.
I got to play with some terrific Tea stamps from Lasting Impressions with Panache last week. Using good ole dye inks, [...]

So many of the recent flower stamps released by Starving Artistamps are just plain gorgeous, that I must have them all! This stamp is one of the many orchid designs recently released and lends itself to lots of design opportunities. I used some of my newly mixed pearly misters to create the background for the [...]
