NEW! - Page Phrases --- 5 free to give away!!!

Page Phrases start at $4.00... with a price like that, you just have to try one! What are Page Phrases you ask.... Well, let me tell you!

Page Phrases are 'large' quotes or sayings designed to go on a page with or without pictures. Full size page phrases make a great introduction page - you know that very first page of an album... or you can use them when you want a double page spread, but don't quite have enough pictures.

I have 5 free page phrases available - what are you waiting for!!!

Darn, I only have one piece of patterned paper....

Have you ever run into this problem... either you want to do a 2 page layout, or you want to use the same paper to accent or embellish a single page layout and you only have 1 piece of patterned paper???

Well, if so, I have an idea I want to share with you today... Here is a single page layout I created using only 1 piece of paper for the background, and the punches going down the middle...

The trick is easy - perhaps you guessed it... I cut a large square out of the patterned paper with my craft knife, and I used cardstock on the front of the layout to hide the big 'hole'...

You can use the 'extra' paper for anything... punches Like I did - or a large accent on a second page! I love it when an idea comes together!

Having a Ball

Here is a new kit available from 1 Creative Bug... It's called HAVING A BALL... it is part of my "Git it Done" collection, designed to go together quick and highlight special moments.

I have to say - the colors are my favorite part of this kit!

So many colors... so little time!

For several months I have been cutting, cutting, designing, designing... so much so my cardstock bin was severely depleated...so it was time for a Paper Order... out came the swatches - because I have been DYING to add to the spectrum... Here is my full bin - I added 7 NEW colors to my offering...and at only 50 cents a sheet your sure to be delighted!

Stopb by and see me Friday the 5th of March at St. Catherine's or Saturday March 13th at CSDR... you can also call or email and come over for a private color show - LOL!

Button Border

Quick and easy to create - this button border is a great accent to any page... Try one the next time you scrap - it's guarenteed to use up at least SOME of your stash!!!

Embellish Me!

There are two basic theories I have about the current state of scrapbooking... Today I am going to shre them with you.

Many of you have PLENTY of stuff (much of it purchased from yours truly, thank you very much) and you also have a LOT of scrapping to do... so because I want you (and me!) to Get It Done this year - I am designing a new line of simple pages called Embellish Me!

Starting at $5.00 you get a simple layout (like the one pictured below) You add the Embellishments (bling, chipboard, flowers, title, stickers, etc) ! You are able to use your stash and Git It Done! Perfect, if I do say so myself.

Each Embellish Me! page is unique - I may have 1, 2 or 3, but they are not made in quantities like the Quick Kits are...these pictures may even be sold out before they go live - but you get the idea!

Some have Paper Piecings ( Embellish Me! Deluxe)...


Some simple die cuts....

But all Embellish Me! pages have style!

To see a complete selection of Embellish Me! pages, be sure to visit me this Saturday at the Love to Scrap Event in Mentone, (EMAIL ME FOR INFO) or Next weekend at the 10-10-10 crop in Riverside.

Another simple page...

1 picture, 1 circle, some flowers and a title - It's DONE!

By the way, this is the inside of the circle from Monday's Layout! How cool is THAT?!
