My Girl

Hi everyone!! How was your weekend? It was -40C with the windchill Saturday, so a good day to stay inside and create! Hubby had flight school again, so another reason to play all day in my studio, lol. Clean house? No way!!  I just couldn't resist this sketch from Sketchabilities. I love to play with some mixed media goodies, so out came the gelatos and the modeling paste, stencils and the paintbrushes. I had this photo of Nicole and I printed twice, because Someone ( not mentioning names) changed the printer settings to black and white!! Never a layout is wasted I say.. one for me, one for Nicole!   Now.. off to clean my desk and start on another project! Have a wonderful day!

Thanks so much for stopping by. I love reading your comments and I appreciate your scrappy support! Have a wonderfully happy scrappy day! Lynn

Snapshots of our Life

Morning Scrappy Friends!! Happy Monday!! Today is a new sketch reveal up at Let's Get Sketchy. This one was designed by our very own Brenshevia ( who is an absolute sweetheart). I was a little lost on what to do with this one. I never seem to take multiple photos of the same thing, so I wasn't sure what direction to take. I've had this photo of Nicole & I sitting on my desk, and have been wanting to scrap it. Then the lightbulb came on and I off I went in search of my Cameo files. I only had 3 sheets of paper from this collection ( and two were the same), so I had to get creative. I cut out the snapshots file and used the negative letters on my photo. The chevrons that were left behind I used at the top of my layout. Then I had just enough paper left over to try and cut out a few flowers. I used every scrap.. I even fussy cut out the left over butterflies to add in. It was close, but I did it, lol..

Altered Dress Form/ Card - Kaisercraft

Good Morning, Good Morning!! Hope your all having a Scrap Fabulous Day!! So if you saw my post about my studio, then you know I'm cleaning things up. Well.. my idea of cleaning is adding more goodies to my studio, lol. I've had some things on my shelf for a LONG time, and it's time to bring them out! I'm not sure when I bought this dress form, but I wanted something to match my desk caddy and had a ton of paper left over, so I decided to give it a whirl. I was pretty happy how it turned out. I was so proud and showed Hubs and our son.. They both looked at it and said "it doesn't have a head.. that's weird".. MEN! I told them they are very popular right now.. and they both still gave me that "look". But this coming from guys that just watch football and hockey, so what did we expect right?? My scrappy friends are going to get it, guaranteed. I'm really starting to like altering items for my studio. It's fun and I'm liking adding just that "one more thing to my shelf".. Now.. I need to find another project, lol.

I had some goodies left over, and Mother's Day is coming.. so I made her a card! I was so proud of myself that I made the word Mom on my Cameo.. I learnt how to use the "weld" function. Look out now!! lol. I'm such a Cameo newbie but again I'm having fun learning!
