Creative Imaginations - Rock Star!!!!

THANK YOU so much to Creative Imaginations and Michelle from A Million Memories for giving me this cool stuff to work with.

I had the ROCK STAR line from Marah Johnson and the Sierra Ring Book-Home.

The book is for my nephew who goes to the "School of Rock". He's studying to be a drummer. I left the journaling spots blank for him to write on himself.

I added Maya Road journaling spots and some Tim Holtz Grungeboard and Crackle Paint.

July AMM Kit - Summer Passport

Can you saw GORGEOUS?? Can you saw ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS??? That's that I'm talking about. This kit is even more amazing in person. I don't even know where to start!! HURRY...this kit will definitely sell out!!! You can get it at A Million Memories!!!

Cosmo Cricket "Hello Sunshine" Project Sneak Peek

I'm such a tease!! Here is a quick SNEAK PEEK of a project I'm working on for A Million Memories using Cosmo Cricket's awesome new line "Hello Sunshine". I just LOOOVE this line. It's so perfect for all of the photos I'm using!! It's called "The Perfect DAY". I can't wait to share it with you.

The cool thing is that I'm writing instructions for this to share and I'm hoping that it might be available as a CLASS at AMM!!! HOW COOL!!!

OH! The agony!!! I hate waiting!!!

Well....I sent my DT Submission to Cosmo Cricket. Now I'm on pins and needles. I have no idea when the calls will be made or when they will announce the team. So I guess I should relax and maybe scrap a while!! (Don't tell DH cause he thinks I should be cleaning the house).

My friend Kitty used to be on the team and said how STINKIN COOL they are (you can tell by the funny videos on their blog). I met them at CHA last summer (and I'm SURE they remember me..LOL)!!! I would LOVE to create project instructions and teach classes at LSS's or conventions. What do you think? Would you go? (OK...Chris...I know you'd go)!!!

Ok....back to life....I should get off this cloud for now!!! Wish me luck!!

How did I get SO LUCKY???

OMGOSH!!! How did I get so lucky? Nick and Vanessa had a Luau party for their last day at PreSchool. Here are just a couple of photos that I took (at home) after the party.

They are SOOOO CUTE!! I can't wait to scrap them. (I'm working on a project using Cosmo Cricket's HELLO SUNSHINE line but you can't see it until it's done. It's only fair, right??)

Cosmo Cricket - Dutch Girl

A HUGE Thank You to Cosmo Cricket and A Million Memories for giving me this GORGEOUS product to work with!!!

I'm not sure but I think the Dutch Girl might be one of my all time favorite lines to work with. And I just LOVE Cosmo Cricket. It's so easy to work with and always has the perfect theme for my projects!!

Here are the projects I did with the Dutch Girl line!!


~Watch Us Grow~
This book is HUGE!! Closed it's 6x12"....but open...it's 24x18". It's awesome in person!!


This view is 12x24"


Open view: 18x24..it's SO cool. The best is that each "section" is like doing a 6x12" layout!























~Mr Potato Head~
One of my rare two pagers I made with one of my sketches. Ijust love these photos of Nick.








~Me and V~
I just LOOOOVE the CC die cuts. They are perfect for layouts and make the cutest embellishments. I polished off this layout with lots of stickles!!





~Thanks so Much~
