31 Days of Halloween Calendar

This is for a class at The Mad Scrapper on Thursday.
I just love Halloween and especially this paper line by My Minds Eye-Boo to You. So fun. Here are some photos from this project,


it is really large-built on a piece of foamcore 20x30.
I used the COOLEST google eyes, they are on springs. They look so adorable on Frankie!

Another New Project for our Scrap Yard Chicks Weekend

This is one of our mini class projects (Make and Takes) for Sunday afternoon. It is a Coin Envelope Mini Album. One of my talented partners Kathy created this little beauty. The envelopes are custom die cut and then she used Pink Paislee's Amber Road collection.
Each envelope has a tag inside to journal about the things we are grateful for. It is so beautiful, photos don't do this project justice.

Our First Scrap Yard Chicks Project is Online!

Our First Project for our Scrap Yard Chicks Fall Weekend Workshop is online!
It is one of my classes, a cute 6x6 recipe Book. It is a Maya Road sheer binder and Shabby Green Door paper, rubons and other cute embellishments. I just love this line of paper, it reminds me of my Betty Crocker Cookbook that was my mom's from the 40's.


We will be making pockets and pages for recipe storage.
We are also including a set of stamps to make your own custom recipe cards. Those Shabby Green Door rub ons are so great on the sheer binder tabs-they go on like butter!
Here is the scoop on the weekend. This is just one of 7 projects that we are making, the other photos will be coming online soon.
