Here is another new item I will be selling for the first time this Saturday at St. Mary's in Chardon. It is a little book I call 'My Books". You can keep track of the books you have read or want to read and never have to try and remember the correct title or author of the book. It makes it so much easier to share your favorite books with others. I used my Cricut and Gypsy with the cartridge A Child's Life for the cuts. I used my Bind-it-All of bind and put the book together.
I
The pages I printed on my computer with three entries on each side with 20 sheets so there are 12o entries in the book, printed on both sides. The back of the book I attached a fabric covered rubber band to hold the bookmark, completely close off the book, or use as a book mark for the last entry in this book. I am really excited to show it this weekend. I do have some of these in my Etsy Store if you are interested in getting one for yourself. Have a great weekend! Blessings
I have been going to town making items to sell for my biggest craft show of the year this weekend. I great friend of mine gifted me with some gorgeous papers and I just had to make this book from one of the sheets!! The book is 8.5 by 8.5 and I used the Bind it all to put it together. All of the decorative paper in the book is from ONE SHEET of 12 x 12 paper!! Yes, I cut it in such a way it is used throughout the book. The cover was the first cut and all I added was the title!! Isn't it beautiful. 
Then I cut the parts left in such a way as to accent the edges of the pages of the book. I used some of my retired TAC images for the embellishments.
This is the upper right hand corner of the paper and I put the stamp 'brrrr' on the top for accent.
Here is another corner with the sled. The opposite top corners are the over half of this square and they have swirls and snow in the paper so they accent to top of the pages.
Some of the edges I stamped snow flakes and added one of my retired TAC images of a deer to them in Charcoal ink.
This is the inside front cover and I cut the parts of the paper with the trees into two pieces, this one and one on the opposite page edge. I added ribbons to the binding and it was done! It looks so much better in person since it has glitter, shimmer and sparkles in the paper. I love it!
Happy June everyone!!! It is time to Spring into June with a beautiful new stamp set called Fruit Collages. It is one of three that you can purchase with a $30 order for a discounted price, only $10.50, until the end of June. I love this one with it's realistic berries! I made a card with the strawberry image colored with Copic markers. The words are from BooKoo Blessings. I used Miss Moxie SWIC for the printed paper and the little flowers are the side color indicator that most people throw away .. but don't they make a great accents. I will show another one tomorrow with these used in a different way. I used my Scor-pal to make a diagonal background and added ribbon of course. Notice the stamped envelope ... I hate sending out naked envelopes. Here is a close up of the stamped image. Oh I also added a little glitter gel pen to it for the shine also.
Yesterday I had to go shopping for a new lawnmower .. yes 20+ years with the same one is a long time but hey ... I found one almost just like it!! I love it since it is easier for me to start and lighter to push. And it brought back the joy of cutting grass again!! Is that possible??? Yuki have you cut grass lately????? LOL
I love some of them so much I put them into my Stamp-a-Stack last Saturday. We had such a great day stamping and creating. Everyone needs a day like that now and then. This set is a keeper for sure! I used 'Mountain Scenery' for this sympathy card with the current set 'With Sympathy' for the words. I love the tree in this one and have used it so much.
This week just flew by .. my computer crashed and I could not use it for a few days but then I had an angel come over and help me out! Thanks Dan! But I did not have my printer until last night and guess what .. I fixed that myself. YES ME!! Well, I had two wonderful large workshops this week, worked hard on making new items for my upcoming craft fairs, and got part of my craft room cleaned. Yes .. that really kept me busy.
rishes, my Big Shot and the Christmas die, ribbon, Stickles, colored pencils, mounting tape, Vintage Holidays (retired) and Fun Bet (retired). The 'for you' is from Trendy Holiday Tags. It is a stamp with two lines ... the the great thing about The Angel Company's stamps is that you can cut them and use them how ever you would like. So, I needed it to be one line, so I cut it. I can now use it either way. I made three IOU cards for the pockets and the other pocket can have a gift card put in or money, or if you want to give more gift cards, put all of the IOU's on one pocket. This came from ideas I heard from my last craft show from my gift card book that sold out. I hope to post more of these this week. Hope you like it! I will have some at my next few shows and will be selling them at Jenniffer & Co Salon also. Blessings
with a light pencil line. Then I put in on the Scor-pal to line up the markings and score. It worked out to be the perfect size! It is accented with the corners with Miss Moxie Soar with It Collection. And it is ready to drop in the mail. I love it when the flowers and stems are different stamps so you can stamp then in the correct color. This new set is available NOW (see last post) and I can put orders in for you from this current Inspiration Book until June 17. Be sure to check out the retired list and specials too! Enjoy your day!!
phrase on both sides of the inside that says 'Give me sexy" and I 
changed it to 'Give me (image of a chocolate kiss)'. I thought that was cute!!
I was inspired to make these Holiday Pins after seeing one with a similar design made by Avis Anderson. These are made on Bazill chips with paper over top. The one is a blue card stock which I ran through my Big Shot with the Coluzzel snowflake embossing plate. The other has TAC's now discontinued Vintage Holiday paper on it. The holly is from one of my favorite Christmas sets Christmas Fun and the snowman is from Fun Filled Holidays. I have added Stickles for an extra touch and sparkle. I used the Crop-a-Dile to punch a hole in the chipboard ... it is so easy with this great tool! Then tied on a few ribbons. One of these will be made in my Nov & Dec classes for Gifts & Ornaments Class. Yes, I am making these for the my craft shows too. Tomorrow I will show a few updated pictures from the layouts in my Halloween book using my Big Shot. Hope you enjoy .. and be sure to note all of your abundance today. Blessings
The Angel Company just released their retired sets for this year! I will miss some of them ...... so I have decided to honor them by showcasing them in my blog! I have also posted my favorite ones on my TAC site for you to see. This one is Roses Whisper, a set of 12, which is a bold set with wonderful roses, leaves, and words. Here I used VersaMagic Chalk pads to stamp the Rose and leaves on white card stock and then shaded with the Jewel Tones Shimmer Chalks. It is such a soft look! The back round on the Matchmakers paper is using a fun technique we learned last year at seminar where you stamp with VersaMark ink and then sand over it. It makes the images pop out more.
