Pure Sweetness

I created these layouts for The Crafty Scrapper last week. I decided to try 8.5x11 layouts for the first time, and I have to say I'm in love! 

I love the dusky and smoky hue of the colors of these papers from Pink Paislee and Fancy Pants. 


I inked and glittered the Maya Road butterfly with Broken China Distress Ink and Stickles. 


I misted the doily with Pink Lemonade Maya Mist. I love this picture of her big dark brown eyes. 


Layered on flowers in my three favorite colors. :) 


And finished it up with these cute stickers from Cosmo Cricket and October Afternoon. 


This page was made with Pink Paislee's Sweetness line which is definitely my new favorite. I love this picture with her chubby baby cheeks and soft baby curls. 


I layered some chipboard with a wooden heart embellishment, and tattered the paper strip underneath. 

You can find all of these supplies at The Crafty Scrapper, and see the layouts in person at the store. 

Happy Scrapping! dee dee

Love Birds

Two cute new layouts you can see at The Crafty Scrapper using Fancy Pants' new Love Birds Collection. 



Jennifer used three smaller pictures in a progression, and placed them above the cute design on the patterned paper.


 She accented her photos with a bit of Maya Road ribbon and a MR felt flower. The "together" chipboard (also by Maya Road) is covered with scraps of patterned paper, and the the edges are sanded. 


Here's a great example of how to use the large diecut papers. 


I love how she covered the chipboard heart with fabric, and accented the heart frame with stickles. 


She cropped her photos and used several different sizes to complete the layout. Very cute! You can find all the supplies used on these layouts at The Crafty Scrapper. Happy Scrapping!

Crazy Love

Check out this sweet mini album by Jennifer using the new Bo Bunny Crazy Love collection.



I love how she painted all the pages different colors. It looks like Neapolitan ice cream - smooth and delicious. 


Love the shimmer on the chipboard, and how she used the Maya Road Kraft tag for her title. 



Nothing says love like  Martha's Luster Glass Microbeads. 


Love how she used the chipboard heart to frame the picture of her and her hubby. 


She typed up her journaling and printed out to avoid handwritten slip-ups. 


Be sure to stop in at The Crafty Scrapper to see this in person, and pick up your own Valentine's Day supplies. Happy Scrapping!

Journaling: How I See You

Check out this sweet layout by Annette using the new Fancy Pants Love Birds collection. 


The paper was so cute she was able to add a tiny picture, and journal right onto the patterned paper. 


Check out how she used all different fonts for her journaling. I love the one that looks like stitching. 


She used red gems to accent the couple in the picture. So sweet! I would love to get an email like that. :)

You can get these supplies at The Crafty Scrapper, and come into the store to see this layout in person. 

Happy Scrapping!

Love Makes You

Bo Bunny's newest releases are Crush and Crazy Love. *correction* Gena and Jennifer created some beautiful layouts for the store with some of the new papers. 


This layout is sweet baby perfection. I love the blocking on this layout. It's a great way to display papers you love, and to give the layout a lot of variety. 


Beautiful layering, and love that sweet brad in the center. 


Gena popped these letters for dimension. Very cute! 


This is Jennifer's layout. Using this warm colored plain card-stock is a great way to tone down a layout for a manly touch. 


Love this big frilly flower! 


Love the expressions on their faces - such a sweet layout. I think these are the most classic colored of all the new releases. Get to the store and check them out before they're all gone. :)

Happy scrapping!

Lovely Layouts

The Crafty Scrapper DT has been busy creating projects with the new Valentine's Day releases. Check out this sweet Princess layout created by Annette. 


A Princess in Training: She used the new Fancy Pants Love Birds collection. I love how she used the Valentine's papers in a non-traditional way. 


Love this rolled ribbon flower, and how she used the Maya Road chipboard tag to frame her title. 


She used mica flakes to create the beautiful sparkle on her page. Love her adorable banner and tassle! 


You are the song my heart sings:  this beautiful layout was created by Gena using the Sassafras Lass Indie Girl collection.  


Check out this beautiful accordion flower layered over a tattered vintage music sheet. 


Little details like out outlining the heart, and using the musical patterned paper tie the theme together so sweetly. 

You can find all this new product in the store now! Happy Scrapping.

What a Fun Festive Day at the Store.....

Today was crazy busy with 3 classes and a make-n-take. We started off the day with long a waited snowglobe class.....Lisa and Trisha out did themselves on this one, and the class was so easy to follow, at one point I had to go do make-n-takes and I came back to find that the elves had built my house.....

Cheryl is one of my best buds and I LOVE to spend time with her. She had called the minute I posted this class and couldn't wait to come down. I promise we both behaved in class and followed directions.......


Here is my finished snowglobe..............

On the other side we have Ann-Denise from Paper Cowgirls teaching her Nutcracker Suite Christmas Paper Medallions. Her beautiful daughter came to assist her.........
I have heard that Ann-Denise is a fantastic cook, and it looks like her students had a special little treat............

I loved her presentation, if anyone knows me they know I believe its all in the presentation. Each student received their kit in this adorable package..............



They had tons of goodies to embellish their medallions....................


All of us in the snowglobe came over to view the finished medallions, I love how they all are different and full of each persons personality. We all loved them so much we bought the extra kits...............







I am so sorry I didn't get any pictures of Dee Dee's class, they were making an beautiful acrylic Christmas Album. She had a full class creating away when I left the store! If you could not attend any of the classes, we have a couple of each of the class kits at the store for sell.
