So exciting!  I am hosting a crop in October as a fundraiser for the library!  I already have several people who have said they will attend, and I have the fabulous Limor Webber attending to teach!

You have to check out Limor's great blog - she is just so awesome I can't wait to learn from her again!

And the even cooler news - I have been asked by a friend to come out to PEI and teach at a crop she is having!! That will be so cool!!

Have been sick and super busy lately, but I have been doing a bit of crafting. I have been working on Donna Downey's Inspiration Wednesday 2015 class and I really love it. Art journaling is what I have been doing the most of lately.  I think I had all three of my art journals on the go this weekend!! Still working on finishing a couple of them, but this is what I had done so far:

This is a page I did with my Prima Colour Bloom Sprays and my new Tim Holtz bird stamps

This is a page I did using some new paints and a stamp I got in my latest SOD/SOE kit

This is week of IW

I will be posting more photos as I get stuff done! Scrapbooking at the library this weekend so should get lots done!

Prima Marketing Design Team Call Application

The following projects are what I want to show you for my application to your design team.

The first showcases my love of making altered items/home decor/DIY projects.  I made both these projects as gifts for friends. I just love all the alterable items that Prima makes - they inspire me daily!





I also love making cards and tags. I made these at a crop I recently attended


My third area of expertise is with mixed media. I love using all the embellishments and flowers that Prima creates, as well as the sprays and inks! And the Prima Dolls are one of my favorite things to play with!! 




Thanks for the taking the time to consider my application for your design team. I look forward to creating for many more years with your great products!

Kaisercraft Design Team 2015 Entry

The following projects were all created with Kaisercraft products for my design team application.

The first is a layout I did using the Sandy Toes collection. I did a layout using a photo of my husband on our recent vacation as the paper in the Sandy Toes line was so perfect for the photo.


I do most of my work with Kaisercraft products with the Beyond the Page items.  One of the recent items I did was this chest of drawers. I made it as part of a swap with a friend who lives in the US



As an addition to this item, I really wanted to show you another project I did with a Beyond the Page product. I am the most proud of this project out of any I have done, as it was one of my most ambitious creations. It is also the project that was published twice.  It is the large wishing well and I just loved this project so much I needed to share it with you.



For my mixed media project, I did this Steampunk wall art for myself as that is one of my favorite styles. I used a lot of different sprays, inks and other mixed media products to create this project.


And I know I only had to show you three projects for this application, but I also wanted to show you that I do cards quite regularly as well. I created this card for a friend who just had surgery. I used the Blue Bay collection for this card.



I thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I love Kaisercraft and can't wait to see all the great collections you create. Thanks for feeding my craft addiction!

The first box is from the great gals at Scrap Addicts. A few things I asked them to hold for me and then decided I couldn't wait to have. Check them out if you need ANYTHING crafty!!

My other box of crafty goodness comes from the uber amazing Melinda at Scraps of Elegance/Darkness. I got both my March kits - Michelle's Mechanical Madness and Anna's Daydreams. The kits are just amazing and I can't wait till this weekend when I will have time to play with all the goodies!!! But check out their site for these great kits.

Did some more crafting last night! Finished up 3 canvases for a swap so I could get them in the mail.
