Clear Scraps~Mason Jar chipboard album.

Hi guys~
My turn on the Clear Scraps Blog today with  another mini album project, that made it to CHA 2014.  This time a very cool Mason Jar chipboard album.  Clear Scraps carries many different shapes both in chipboard and acrylic, so you have a choice.:).


I used October Afternoon pattern paper.  The fence, on the cover, is also by Clear Scraps
The fence mixer can also be used as a stencil, way cool!!!!
The inside pages are up on Clear Scraps, hope you will take a look.  
This album fits in with our way of life:):)

 vintage trim.  Love using up scraps of paper!!!  The resin flowers are by Prima.

Try It Tuesday~nature craft love!

Hi guys!!!
I love to go on nature walks and see what I can find, while getting some exercise.  Feathers, bird nests and deer sheds are just a few of the things I will pick up.  Old bottles, too!!!
One of my latest creations, using a bird nest, celebrating Spring!!

 I used Avocado Arts,  JBS, Maya Road and some vintage flowers.  The colored doilies are by The Curtsey Boutique.
Hubby made my granddaughter and me a bottle tree, I'll be showing it soon.  The garden is a mess right now:):).
  On a side note, it was 26 degrees yesterday morning (Spring are you there?)
