My projects from Winter CHA 2011

Well, we're approaching all the sneak peeks for Summer CHA 2011 so before checking out all the reveals I thought I'd share my fave projects I created for Teresa Collins Winter CHA 2011.

First I have to say the POSH...such beautiful papers plus it has my favorite colors- Pink and black.

Now for TIMELESS.

SPORTS EDITION II

ON THE EDGE

I created this for the show from my daughter's first photo shoot for the BAY AREA Magazine.  She had such an awesome time and hope that this book will remind her how much fun it was for her.  The album starts off with " I wanna be " which came from the song from the PussyCat dolls.

This is a chalkboard I created using a wooden guitar to hang on a teen or tween's door where you can write notes on the chalkboard or your teen can.  I love this one!

Well....I think that's it.  Hope you enjoy my projects.  Now to ooohh and awwww all the new Summer CHA 2011 products!

HAPPY SCRAPPIN'!!

Teresa Collins and Core'dinations blog swap.

I just love how Teresa Collins has some beautiful collections with Core'dinations.  I created this layout by distressing it with distress ink.

More details of my layout.

I used her POSH lace transparency and chipboard butterfly.

My new iphone case.

Since I had upgraded my iphone to iphone4 I haven't bought a new case for it like I had for my old one.  Well....I finally got mine and I had a dealt where if you buy 2 it's for the price of one.  I jumped for it because well...it's so awesome!!  Check it out!  These photos are from our session with StoryBox Art last year.  I totally love these.

Teresa Collins Cricut cartridges debut

Teresa announced back at CHA winter 2011 that she designed 2 Cricut cartridges. One for the Expression and the other for the Cricut Imagine. A few days ago Teresa posted images on her blog of the 2 cartridges.  Gorgeous!!  I can't wait to create with these new designs on my CRICUT IMAGINE.  Oh the possibilities!

Teresa Collins giveaway.

Alright my crafty friends...Teresa Collins is having a giveaway.  Check out her blog and for a chance to win PROVO CRAFTS YOUR STORY binding system.  I looove this machine.  I love those photo books online but let's face it...they're not cheap.  This machine allows you to do just that and more.  So go on over and watch Teresa show off how YOUR STORY works on Good Things Utah.  Also, check out PROVO CRAFT .  Can't wait to create with this machine!

Learning something new.

Okay so I got the Cricut Imagine.  This bad boy is HUGE!!  Sad to say my room is just not big enough.  I told my husband I needed a bigger room!  He just chuckled.  It took me awhile to get things set up and I'm still getting to know this machine but wanted to test it out.   It's pretty AWESOME I must say.  I see a lot of possibilities once I get to know this machine.  There's tons of YOU TUBE tutorials on how to use this machine.  I can't wait to learn what it can do.  Stay tuned for future projects with my new CRICUT IMAGINE.

Teresa Collins Collections at Art Inspired Studios

I went to visit my friends at Art Inspired Studios in Brentwood, Northern California and caught a glimpse of what they had in the store.  I just LOOVE Teresa Collins POSH.  Check out that lace trasparency, her bling, stamps, trims and chipbooard album.

Below is her SPORTS EDITION II....

Red stars transparency, stamps brads, and chipboard elements.

Last week of SPRING BREAK

Last week it was my daughter's and my nieces last week of Spring Break.  My brother and his girlfriend decided to take BART to San Francisco despite the bad weather.  It was my daughter's first time riding on BART.  Let's say she had tons of fun!  They even got a chance to hop on to a CABLE CAR.  How cool is that?!!  Sadly, I've never rode on one.  I know...that's sad.  Someday.

(pictures taken from my brother's Point and shoot)

See the rain pouring?

I'd say they all had a BLAST!

Cricut Imagine

Look what I got! A Cricut Imagine. I can't wait to play with this machine.

Grandma turns 90!

Last Saturday we celebrated my husband's grandma who turned 90!  Her family organized this huge event and it was so fun.  I'm so glad I was able to be there especially I had to work that night.  She's so sweet and such a strong woman.  Her story is amazing!  Between her children, grandkids and great grandkids there are 45!  Yes we have such a HUGE family!  We've been together since high school and let me tell you..it wasn't easy getting to know who's who in this family.  I love them so very much and I'm so happy to be part of such a wonderful family.  Mind you this is only his Dad side.  Don't let me get started with his mom's side and my side.  Yup! It's huge.  Here's some pictures with Grandma.
