The winner of the KI paper and stamp: Carriegel.
The winner of the Sassafrass lass package: Dani.
Please e-mail me your addresses and I will get those out sometime this week. Thanks everyone for playing along. :)
And then new items from KI are appearing in the store now too. This ribbon spool is too cute. I just need a cute baby to go along with it:
Thinking of spending a warm, sunny day outside. You're totally going to need this cute paper from KI Memories as well.
How about a stamp for less than $1. This one from We R Memory Keepers is a keeper for sure.
And if you want a super cute digital kit. I love this one by Holly Brooke Jones . . . "Enchanted Forest". Look at that cute owl and darling cloud paper. I've already downloaded it and used it I loved it so much!!
Well, hopefully I've enabled you enough. I did promise you a giveaway so I'll try to do that either tomorrow or Saturday. Got some fun extra things in my stash that need a good home. ;)
And then there's this one that uses both a woodgrain stamp and sentiment stamp from Hero Arts and a stamp from the latest CK KOTM. That one is a two sided stamp with dates on one side and an alphabet stamp on the other side.
I have a dental appointment tomorrow, and I'm totally nervous for it. I NEVER used to be nervous of the dentist. I mean how easy is the dentist: lay down in a chair to have all your work done? But for some reason I'm all worked up about it. :( I hate nerves and how they interrupt my day. So wish me luck! LOL!
Here's a Jellybean jar that I'm gifting to a neighbor using the same line:
And a card (don't you love how Monkeys are so hot right now)!
I'll share more of the uploaded items another time. I don't want to flood here and overwhelm you. LOL!
And to my little man . . . Happy Birthday, handsome!!
Then I thought it would be fun to highlight some of the other GG's work. They are my inspiration for sure!!
* I loved, loved, loved this one by Robyn. She rocks my world every time. Did you know she's teaching a monthly class in the Education Forum? Awesome new layout each month.
* And then Miss Kelly Purkey is just too darn cute. I'm not sure it would matter what she puts on a page (and she makes GORGEOUS layouts), but with her cute photos it's always a great project.
* And Jen McGuire is the Queen of Cards (as is Kristina Werner) and I thought these little snorkle cards were too cute not to point out.
On another note, are you contributing to Scrapbook Trends calls (or Cards, or Handmade, or Beads)? I'm noticing a lot of new names in my submissions. Coolio!! I love seeing new people in the publishing world.
ST is currently working on their regular issues and a Holiday Issue. Got something cool to contribute? Check out this!! (That link has all their current calls.)
My upcoming call is for "Use texture to convey the emotion and make sure the emphasis is on the journaling." Can't wait to see what you come up with!!
Well, off to finish up a big deadling for QVC. I kept dreaming of different packages I was opening and panicking over how I was going to use the product. I think I need a break. LOL!
This is going to be a fun one!! You know how I feel about stamping. ;) What's even more fun is I got to watch the uber talented Anne from Scrapbook Trends photograph this cover shot. She's amazing and so fun to work with. I think we "need" to convince her to teach us some photography tips. The stamps on this card are PaperTrey stamps. So VERY lovely!!
You can order the idea book here.
Also, this layout is the Layout of the Day at 2Peas today:
The item on sale are those cute white tags. Very inexpensive and totally fun to work with. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss them. I recreated paper airplanes to match that AWESOME American Crafts pattern paper. The text is a text box with black fill and yellow letters. It's so much more dramatic than just black text on a colored background. The paperclips at the top were just hanging around and I thought they would be great for holding up my tags.
(I loved that zebra print for a branch. Very cool!!)
Here is a close-up of the pillow:
And then for something different, I actually ironed on the fabric leaves to a sheet of cardstock. (Again use a low setting on your iron so the cardstock doesn't warp.) Then I just placed the sheet inside a frame. Here's the frame:
Isn't it cool to see the things the Cricut can do? I can hardly wait to try the new stamp and embossing folders they sell now. I love my die cutting machines. :) What cool things have you done with yours?
Here's the one with the handstitching (the bird paper is a digital kit available at 2Peas):
And then my "New Product Focus" was using the new Making Memories Easter line. I especially love the patterns on the back of the paper. Lovely!! And those paperclip butterflies (I removed the paperclips on mine) are gorgeous.
