"Our" street with Darkroom Door~

Here is another layout done for Darkroom Door using the New York Collection.  This is volume 2.  Also on this layout are the word strips and montage sheet~ that is what the chevron border is made out of.  The paper is by Jenni Bowlin. 

The kids were just walking around New York City and found "our" street.  I took that same picture five years ago when I was walking around New York City and came up on "our" street.  :):):)  Fun stuff!!!

Try It Tuesday~Work table and wall of 5's!

Well here she is~my new work table.  What do you think it was in it's previous life?  I was told it was a child/infant examining table from a medical facility.  I can see it~

Here it is set up in my room~

My other work table is on the other side for painting, stamping, misting ~ the messy stuff:):)

I scrapbooked today to try it out and I loved not having the chair in my way ~worked great!

I also started my 5 wall~ some of you knew I was collecting them. I had some of the girls that take classes with me, give some {5's} for my birthday.  So here is a look, hoping to find more~



Thanks for stopping in toady!! I'm going junkin' (fingers crossed) so maybe , just maybe I will find some cool 5's!!! See ya soon!!!

Darkroom Door and "the lady"~

Hi everyone~did some junkin' this weekend with hubby.  So excited, I got a new work table.  It is an old examination table for an infant.  It is sage green and it sets up high like a drafting table.  I stand when I scrapbook or craft so this will work out great.  I'll be showing it to you soon.  This is another layout I did for Darkroom Door, using the New York Collection.

The paper is by Jenni Bowlin.  The Statue of Liberty stamp is fabulous.  I wanted to use it on every layout.  Stamps beautiful!!! I enjoyed working with this collection of New York images! 
*********************************************************
I have a busy next few weeks coming up, so I need to keep working ahead~have a great day and I'll see ya soon for Try It Tuesday {those junkin pic's}!!!

Darkroom Door~New York Vol. 1 & 2!

Happy Friday!!!!  This month I have been working for Darkroom Door {awesome red rubber stamp company in Australia}.  I was sent the New York Collection Vol. 1 & 2 to work with along with the montage sheets, photo chips and word strips ~all pertaining to New York City!!!

When I did these two layouts my idea was to show that you could use these sets without New York City photographs, that was the goal!  Here is the second one~

I used all the stamps { both vol. 1 & 2}  on this one and clustered them at the bottom of the page. The paper is by Echo Park {both layouts}.

Tonight on the Darkroom Door I will have three more layouts I did using the New York Collection, so go take a look!!! Here is the latest project posted~  Fabulous set!!!!
******************************************************************
My scrapbooking class is tomorrow morning at 10:00am at Craft Crossing~ hope to see you there!!!!
Have a great weekend and I'll see ya soon!!!!
