Let's heat it up!

Stamping, seems to be a whole lot of scrappin' these days and this was my welcome back into the stamping world. I need some warming up for sure! I have been on a mini book craze. I want to make a mini book for everything now.

Here is my current creative agenda...

Disney Cruise Album (EK success changed page protectors need to solve that and make title page)

The Mustache Book (working on the quotes throughout)

Miss Arizona Album (This will be a long one, pecking away)

Mom's Horse Album (Have picked out all cardstock and patterned paper to go with it)

Sister's Wedding Album (Need to get one more batch of photos printed, started choosing sketches for each layout)

Untitled book (not sure what it will be called, it is about everything I love...hmmm that could be the title)

Japan Album x 3 for my friends now in North Dakota, South Carolina and Arizona (size and color combo chosen)

and the future creative agenda...

use up 20 lbs of scrap paper

organize photos, keepsakes and layout ideas by event or book in files (this way I can jump around on different projects so I don't force creating anything)

Gold Award Girl Scout Album

Air Force Album

gear up for craft faire in November

I did it!

Kwerner had a color challenge and I completed the card that day! What an accomplishment for me! Although there wasn't a photograph taken until the next day and croping the next, but hey I did it! Check out the inspiration here. Also it is one of Toni's sketch challenges, check out the sketch here.

SALEABRATE the Occasions Mini and being back to scrappin!

Found this card in the Splitcoast Stampers Gallery you can see the card here.
Had to play with this background and the delicious flower set out of the occasions mini. Totally diggin this color combo as well, found on this website which is a great resource and we all know how I feel about color! It is for SU! colors, but she also has a CTMH color combo site as well here.

So what I have been up to...

Unpacking and organizing my life.

Which I guess the best way to do that is through lunch with everyone. I have have been out to lunch just about everyday since I have arrived.

Began actaully scrapbooking again! I found a great store here a few years back and she is still up and running. Over the years a stamp store closed and another scrapbooking store. I attended the crop that was Friday from 6pm-12am and Saturday from 10am-12am. Met 11 talented scrapbookers and just about finished 18 layouts! I just need to add embellishments to them. I began putting photos to paper for my aunt's Disney Cruise album. I also need to begin my sister's wedding album and keep plugging away on Miss Arizona's album and of course the mustache book. So the "me" books might have to wait, or I could make some time to get motivated to do the others. We will see how that pans out.
