Hello Scrapbook World, well, I have just gotten home for our last D.T. meeting of 2008. The night ends with mixed emotions.  I am filled with sadness, joy and excitement.  The sadness that the year has come to a close and it seems it went by soooo very fast.  The joy and anticipation of the next team.  The excitement is to watch the 2008 D.T. blogs and see how they continue to grow as great scrapbookers.


I want to send out a big thank you to the girls for the beautiful gift of flowers (which I love and they are already in my scraproom!!) and the beautiful Fleur de Leis necklace. Just love it.  Thanks so much for a great year we had. Everyone grew sooooo much as a scrapper and we had our share of stories and laughter!!  Keep scrapping, blogging and always remember to "Think Outside The Box!"

Keep your ears and eyes open for the announcement of the new 2009 D.T for T.M. coming soon!!

It's Sunday evening and another weekend has flown by wayyyyyyyy too fast! Completed two l/0's this weekend and even taught a HDYDT class!  This is a big accomplishment for me since I take FOREVER to complete a l/o!  Hope you enjoy the l/o's and keep on scrapping.


Look for dates for another HDYDT class and my new Dec Glimmer Mist book!
Have a fabulous week!

1st Grade School Picture


Another l/0 in one weekend! yipee! This is Alexis school pic from 1st grade.  I just add to use flower and ribbon, with a touch of bling from Glitz and Hambly Rub-ons

Imagine that! HA!

Fun Times @ Nannys

Does this l/o look familiar to anyone???  I have had this l/0 waiting to be finished for maybe 2 years now--OMG!!  It is a Connie D.E. l/o and I was determined to add pics and finish it this weekend!  I used some alphabets I have had FOREVER!!  I do have a problem of adding to many pics but she is so cute and we were having fun on one of our "Nanny Friday nights in 2004!  Oh how much had she grown!  She wanted to be a scrapbook and aerobics teacher-- I wonder where she gets that from??!!!

Monday evening and getting ready for bed but had to blog about the Karen Russell photography class yesterday at T.M.  If you missed it, you really missed out on some great, fabulous info. Karen was funny and made everything easy to understand.  Maybe now I will really know how to use my digital camera.  I read an article in Creating Keepsakes magazine today and I knew what the article was talking about and really understood it.  Thank you Karen!!  It was 9 hours of some intense information but I think I will start a support group for Photography dummies like me and go out and practice what we learned yesterday!  Thank you Janet for brining her to the store. 


Yeah!  Now, I can't wait for Jenny Bowlin to come to the Mega Crop!  Don't forget we are still accepting l/o's for the T.M. Design Team 2009.  
Hope you have a fabulous week!

ps. heather, you really did put that title on your blog- you are so funny!!

New Scrapbook Room






Here are some pics of my new decorated scrapbook room!  I JUST LOVE IT!  I went with a black, white and of course pink room.  I am out of control with ribbons and flowers as you can well see but don't they look Fabulous!   Did you notice I found the word Fabulous and just had to have it.  It was originally blue so I painted it and I can't decide whether or not to add bling to it! I am still working on a cool bulletin board-those pics coming soon! Hope you enjoy the pics!

Dec Glimmer Mist Book



Here is a sneak peak of my new Glimmer Mist Book with a Winter Theme!!  Just finished it today and I am so excited.  Lots of techniques from glitter, stickles, distressing and flocking!!  OMG! Had so much fun creating it.  Look for my e-mail when the dates will be announced!

It's Monday evening and I can't decide should I stay up late and finish taking pics of my new scraproom!! NOTTTTTT. I will be getting up early to go vote so I need my beauty sleep. 


Love the time change with the extra hour of sleep but not the getting dark so early thing!!  Look for pics of my new scraproom coming real soon and see why they call me the Ribbon Queen!  I just love my new room and really have a hard time not wanting to leave my room especially when i have the Polyester Power Hour Music blaring on my iTunes!!!  HA!!!  

I am really excited to teach my HDYDT #6 class this weekend.  Don't worry, if you would like to take it, I will be opening some more classes in Dec along with my new Winter Glimmer Mist book.  I am working on it now and I hope you will like it too!

Have a fabulous week:)

Witchy Cute


Okay, here is last years Halloween and I could not NOT use all of these pics!!  SO, i just did a large collage and added lost of differ paper including some Michael Miller fabric paper!!  I used my Click It to punch the holes in the pinked paper to create the ribbon holes to mimick her dress. If you look close she is riding her broom backwards!!

LadyBug

I just love this l/o I did for Alexis in her cute Ladybug costume.  I had some of those "Pre-fab wooden Ladybugs and added raindots and buttons for dimension.  I used Some of the Luxe paper and cut out the circle's and tore and rolled the edges of paper -taken from one of Connie's l/o's and added brads to continue the circle theme!

Just Ducky


How much is white space for me?  This is white space for me--isn't that funny???  Alexis was on 1yrs old and her mother and I wore Goofy Halloween hats.  I used The Fancy Pants transparencies, Prima Flowers and some expoy stickers. The center of some of the flowers are some old snaps which I smashed with my Crop-A-Dile.  

Purrr...fect Kitty


Purrrr...fect Kitty.  How cute is she??  REALLY cute and can't believe that she was only 3yrs old.  I played catch on past Halloween pics this weekend.  I used a combo of Technique Tuesday, chipboard, ribbon, Karen Foster Halloween chipboard and the Fabulous metal letter.  Even dug out some old metal buttons from K.F.
