Closer look of TC shadow box

Here's that project I created for Teresa Collins to sign in honor of being chosen as a TC Design Team member.  I used an old Martha Stewart shadow box I've had in my stash forever but didn't know what to do with it until now.  Other products used are Teresa Collins Welcome Home line and blingage.  I used a leftover chipboard and placed it on the back of the chandelier to give it dimension.  I then added stickles to add bling.  I loved how it turned out.

Getting ready for the big feast tomorrow with Family.  I love getting together with family.  

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Teresa Collins at Scrapbook Island

 Lisa and I went to Scrapbook Island to take Teresa's class.  Love her!  It was a birthday present from my BFF, Lisa.  Yay!  Thanks Lisa!  The cool thing was too, was that it was the day after Teresa Collins Design Team announcement.  I had the chance to see her afterwards.  I was so excited that she picked me!

Teresa signing my project that I designed in honor of making the Teresa Collins Design Team using an old shadow box from my stash and her Welcome home Collection and some Blingage.  I cut up the chandelier and placed it on top of chipboard to give it dimension.

Here's a picture of my BFF, Lisa and I with Teresa Collins.  

Had such a great time creating her Friends album.  Pictures to follow after I put pictures in it.

Family mini

I made this mini album a few weeks ago using Tattered Angels Mist- a- bles for our recent family photo shoot.  

It's official....

I can't believe it!  I get an email from Teresa saying "I'm trying to call you."  Ooops!  So when I get the call I was already getting excited and nervous too.  Then shes tells me that I made it on the Design Team.  Can you say... AHHHHH!  (wanting to scream)  Then I was thinking am I going meet their expectations?  So new at this and NERVOUS!  My family don't really know how big this is and how exciting it is.  They just think... "ok, miss scrapper".  It was so nice to have a little chat with her.  She's such a sweet person! I'm glad I'll get to know her and the rest of the team better.  Well....here's to a new adventure!  Congrats to the rest of the ladies who made it!

Happy Birthday my girl!

Well....my girl just turned 11 last friday.  11 years old!  She's such a tween!  Since there was no school e celebrated her bday last friday with friends by watching Megamind then took the girls to lunch for some more fun.  I'll post more pictures later.  Right now my computer isn't cooperating.  I'll leave you with this pix from our recent photo session by Kim of Super Kimeragery Photography. 

Teresa Collins Design Team

So I had submitted my work to try out for Teresa Collins design team.  Thinking... I'll just try out.  Not getting my hopes up or anything.  Then I checked out TC's blog and she listed the FINALISTS.  Accckkkk! (screaming)  I'm on the LIST!!  I can't believe it!  It's just exciting to make it on the list and I know that there's way more talented ladies on there.  It doesn't hurt to try.  Wish me LUCK!

Tattered Angels Mist* a* bles and glimmer mists

Have you checked out Tattered Angels Heidi Swapp line that was released in October?  OMG! SO fun to play with.  They have this paper pack that has fuzzy design on it and resist paper that you can glimmer mist on.  It also comes with blank sheets of paper for misting.

Resist paper

fuzzy paper

I created a mini book to put pix of my 39th birthday celebration using their mini album and glimmer misted it.  I also used Heidi Swapp's line of chipboards, crepe and used pop dots to create dimension.

this "celebrate" tag I glimmer misted to.  The tag had fuzzy lettering and resist  wordings too.

Halloween mini

This Halloween mini album was so much fun to create.  I made this for a friend.  I housed it in this cute halloween felt bag from Michaels.  I thought it would be really cute and special.

It's 5x7 and I binded it with my bind it all.  I'm still learning.  This is actually my second time creating with it.  I used papers from American Crafts, We are memory Keepers, Hambly and Girls Paperie.

I also used Claudine's 12x12 natural canvas.  I love using different mediums.  I sprayed it with my fave..Glimmer mist.  I also used Tim Holtz's fragments for charms.  Love those!  

Pockets with tags for journaling.

Glimmer love

So loving Tattered Angels Heidi Swapp products and Glimmer mists!  I love how you can mist any color to coordinate with your pictures or project.  I had to create a layout of our recent family photo shoot using Pink Paislee's HOF 3 Parisian Anthology papers!  Love them!
