Clear Scraps~A Celebration Banner!!!

Hi guys!!!

Here is a little sneak peek, at my project, I did for Clear Scraps. 

I used the acrylic banner set with the mini star album.

I'm thinking this will look super cute on the new "grand boy's" crib:):)

Banner ( 5 pieces)

Mini Star Album~

 I love to take these apart and use them as embellishments,

 as I did on the "Celebration Banner"!!!

The paper is by Authentique.

Check out the completed banner on the Clear Scraps Blog.

Darkroom Door~Polaroid Stamp!!

Hi guys!!!

I have a, super cute, scrapbook page, using one of the new releases, by Darkroom Door.  It is the Frame Stamp called Polaroid.  I also used the Background Stamp called Chicken Wire (a favorite of mine) and the Brush Strokes set, another fave:):)

The pattern paper is by Authentique.  I thought it was perfect for these pictures. So fancy, right? 

The title is cut my Silhouette,  The more I use it the better I get at welding the letter's together.  I forget about the other things I can do with it:):)

I love the Wendy Vecchi Inks by Ranger.  The colors are gorgeous:):)

Thanks for stopping by today.

I'm working on a re-purposing project that will be up next week along with some stamp carving.  

See ya soon~

The Curtsey Boutique~Scrapbooking!!!!

Hi guys!!!

I have been enjoying the NBA playoffs, some stamp carving and the lovely weather.  We are cooler for this time of the year:):) 

I did this for The Curtsey Boutique, using all of the wonderful embellishments from the Etsy shop.

The library cards are one of my favorite items.  Love to use them for journal cards and, most of all,  I love the look of them.

The paper is by Jenni Bowlin Studio, another favorite:):)

Try It Tuesday~vintage stamp handles!

Hi guys!!!

Thanks for stopping by for Try It Tuesday.

I'm not sure (well pretty sure, I didn't) take a before shot of these vintage stamp handles, you know the ones that go in the Standard desk holder:):)  Tim Holtz has a re-make of the Standard on the market ~anyway, I had some handles but no base.  Hubby put a small block of wood on them and I added the Velcro circles to each block to hold the ink sponges (Tim Holtz)

Small wood block, drilled out and glued to handle.

Velcro added to bottom to hold the sponges.

Pretty cool, right!!!

$2 got two applicators that look way cool.

This one was $1~

I'm going to hand carve a stamp for it.

I'll post it when I get it done:):)

See ya soon~

Clear Scraps ~ Scrapbooking!

Hi guys!!!

Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day, I did:):):)

This is a layout I did for Clear Scraps using the XL Deco shape acrylic sheet.

Also used in this project is the Diamond Stencil and the Flower Mixer.

I stenciled on the backside of the Deco Shape so the paint would not chip off over time.

Just make sure it is really dry before adhering the acrylic to the pattern paper.

Zip Dry by Beacon works great for this:)

The title is cut from the Silhouette machine:):)

Added to the corner, for an embellishment cluster and I'm calling it done.  I used some Maya Road

goodies.  The pattern paper is by Jillibean Soup.

Envelope style card with Darkroom Door's Texture Stamp!

Hi guys!!

I have a card today using the new Floral Texture stamp by Darkroom Door.

These Texture stamps are half the size of a background stamp and give you that random stamp look we all love.  Perfect for a small stamping space.

The tag is in a library card envelope.  You can find those here.

The other Darkroom Door stamps I used were the

All Occasions set and Love Birds.
