See My Samples in the New Fall Supplement

The new TAC Fall Supplement is here! I'm so excited to share with you that I designed samples for three of the new stamps sets in TAC's Fall Supplement! I was so blessed to have been given that opportunity. My favorite stamp set was the "Birdy Holiday" - what do you think? These samples are located on pages 9 and 10 of the supplement but if you want to see the whole supplement click here. I'm believing you'll enjoy making your holiday projects with these newbies. Thanks for visiting me and let me know if I can help you with your stamping or scrapbooking projects. Bless~

Ohio Gathering Fun!

Had a wonderful and fun time. Met the nicest women and boy were they talented too! You'll see by the pictures. Thank you ladies for blessing my life! Here are some pictures from our Ohio Gathering. Believing to post some other things later. Enjoy!!

Frig Scrapbook Page

Here's a quick 6x6 scrapbook page to make & hang on your refrigerator. When you've completed it, insert it into an 6x6 page protector, tie a ribbon thru the two holes, add a magnet to the back of it & hang on your refrigerator. When you want to make a change, just slide a new scrapbook layout to replace this one. These make quick gifts too. I used TAC's "Pop Rockz" paper collection on the frog prince one and "Mimi" paper on the second one. I just noticed the picture was crooked on the second one - sorry!

The Ohio Gathering is almost here!

These past few weeks I've been working on my r.s. demo, blog presentation, birthday gifts, display boards, digital swap etc. for Rita's NE Ohio Gathering this weekend! This is where all the Ohio (and some other states) independent demonstrators for The Angel Company meet for a weekend. We share ideas on scrapbooking, rubber stamping, business building etc. I can't wait - it's sure to be filled with lotsa fun and fellowship! I will post some of my "stuff" for you to look at later on. In the meantime here's a sample of what?:

Perky Penguin doing the ChaCha

Okay, I'm the one still doing the ChaCha - using the "ChaCha" paper collection, that is. Can you tell I like these decorative papers?! They are so versatile - you can even use them for winter papercrafting. I also used the flowers from the "Oh How" Hostess Special stamp set - they reminded me of snowflakes. So, hey, I think differently than you all, huh? Hope you enjoy this winter card.

Paper Piecing with the Mimi Collection

I don't know what happened to my last post. My pictures for the "Remember September" PaperCrafting month didn't show up. So let's try it again. Here are the "Mimi" paper collection samples. I did some paper piecing on these.

For newbies, here's a quick "how to" on paper piecing:

1- stamp your full image on white cardstock and color in only the hair, face & arms.

2- stamp different parts of your image on different parts of your patterned paper. You will cut out these images and adhere them back to the white cardstock, thus, paper piecing. This is a neat way to add interest and alot of dimension to your work.

Contact me to purchase your Coordinating Paper Sets so you too can start paper piecing some scrapbook or rubber stamped artwork. Have a blessed day!!

"ChaCha" Paper

Sorry for my absence! My camera has been out of order & I haven't been able to take photos of my artwork. Here are some "scans," though, of TAC's new "Cha Cha"paper collection. It is such a FUN paper! "ChaCha" meets "Salsa" flower stamp set and you have quite a combination going on. I keep hearing that song in my mind, you know the one they play at every vacation resort, "Some like it hot, hot, hot!" The "ChaCha" paper is wonderful - it's very versatile and the colors are very vibrant - don't know if the scans really do it justice but here's a picture SLIDE for you to view. Remember to click on slide screen for a better & larger view. Thanks for looking and God bless you much!

Faithbooking Class at TAC Seminar

As some of you know, I was asked to do a "Faithbooking 101" presentation for our annual TAC seminar in Kansas City! I was honored and privileged! It was a great time, met some wonderful ladies and received some great feedback. Thank you ladies for your support, it really blessed me!

Faithbooking is scrapbooking your faith, your beliefs. So for me it's Christian scrapbooking - remembering what God has done for me and my family. It's also being able to teach my boys God's Word even after I'm gone because God's Word is weaved throughout my scrapbooking. What's neat about that is that they can then teach their kids! Awesome, huh? Here are some of the scrapbook layouts I used as samples for this class. My other displayboards are enroute to me so I will be adding more photos to my slide as I get them. Please check back and if you have any questions, leave a comment.

Count Your Blessings - Giveaway!

I've been wanting to do this for a while - just hadn't gotten it together. I will be featuring "COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS" posts. I'd like you to leave a comment with something that God has blessed your life with lately or at any time of your life. It's just a great way to be thankful and to remember our daily blessings. We can inspire one another

So at the end of the month I will draw from the comments for a winner and will giveaway this Mini Chipboard Blessing Book (whew! long title, huh?) that I just made using some of our new TAC rubber stamps and paper. There's room in it for small photos and for more embellishing.

Leave a blessing comment and get in on the drawing for this Mini Blessing Book!

"The Good Life" Samples

How do you like my new TV showcasing samples of how you can use February's rubber stamp Incentive Set - "The Good Life"? It's a fun thing. Just click on the TV screen to see a close up of a card image. I used Kaleidoscope Girlz, Catelynne and Sands of Time patterned papers. These papers ARE examples of "Paper Blessings!"

The Incentive Set is shown on top of the TV set. How did it get up there?

Coasters

Experimenting with the coasters I got from Jen B. They have a really neat surface to work on. The first one uses "Pretty Posies" r2027 set and was colored in with prismacolor pencils. Used direct-to-paper technique for the background. Added ribbon & buttons to embellish. The second one, "believe in yourself," uses "Enjoy Today" t2412 stamp set, used the giga d81 shipping tag punch and covered the background of the coaster with "Hip Hop" patterned paper. Added some ribbons & a "B" die cut to complete it.

Love U Pocket Card

The heart slides out from this Luv U pocket card - you can see this better in the second picture. I used pigment inks for the direct-to-paper technique. The "Hip Hop" paper collection was used and I covered the letter U from the "Grunge Alphabet" with this paper as well. The words are from "Dance with your spirit" set - designed by our own Rita Kegg, I might add! I finished it off by stamping stitching from the "Running Stitching" set. Let me know if you want directions and dimensions of this card.
