New Project...





Well I have been researching on Youtube some ideas and came acoss this one, you take the sleeves that go over your coffee (i.e Starbucks, Port City Java etc) and make them into a little altered scrapbook.

I take the sleeve cut it in the back down the seam and adheare some colored paper and embellishments then bind it with my bind it all. It is very simple and make great gifts.


This one is of me and DH on my birthday...it was alot of fun. I think I might do one for our sweet boxer Bud.

Beginnings....

I have been hit by the Blog Bug. . . Resistance was futile! I will try blogging for a month or so; if I keep up with it better than I have with my other attempts in the past with blogging, I may just keep going. I will ramble about stamping or other hobbies for the most part. But I am quite sure that my adventures in being a new stepmom (in one week) and a new grandma (on Feb 17th) will crop up occasionally as well. I have one week until I get married and it is all coming together in an amazing way. I can't wait to walk down the stairs to meet my husband.

I have been waiting a very long time for this and the day is fast approaching. I have all my appointments set up for hair, nails and make-up. The dress is hanging in the guest bedroom...in the attempts of keeping the dog from wanting to pull it down and use it as a blanket I can't wait.

I have been a scrapbooker for a few years but took some time off due to life changes. But have started again with cardmaking and other paper making crafts. I will start to post them here for my friends and family to see...(everyone lives in different areas). I hope in some attempt maybe someone will be inspired by something to use in their cards or layouts.

I am always looking for inspiration so you will find many sites on my side bars that help me when I get a crafters block, which happens more times then not.

If anyone ever has a suggestion please post them. I am still learning alot about scrapbooking, cardmaking and this wide world of blogging.

Have a happy day...
