HE LOVES THE MUD.  In our household we need at least two pairs of rubberboots so one pair has time to dry, and i don't know how he manages it but always ends up wet to his waist good thing he is not shy about striping down before he comes into the house.

My week

so it has been a week of good and bad.

1. i spilled my coffee on my laptop and now the keyboard doesn't work so i have a keyboard plugged into it thus not really a laptop anymore, and on my keyboard the space bar is broken thankx to my son 4 years ago.  But as the coffee spilled all i could think is thank god it didn't fall on the wedding invitations i have been working on for a month.

2. invitation done picked up and paid for

3. funny story- my son booped outside over a grandma by his swingset instead of going inside- the funny part he let grandma blame the dogs

4.  page kits are finally done i will post one each day.

Scrappy Glue

So I had a moment of panic i just received a shipment of scrappy glue, and anyone who has every taken a class or been in the store you know i am addicted to scrappy glue i use it on everything.  Now the problem with scrappy glue is you can't ship it during an Alberta winter without it freezing and once frozen it is a solid glue glump.  So i am down to my last scrappy glue and it has finally warmed up enough so i can order again....BUT then

NEW BOTTLING (old is on the right)

so i had a slight panic attack i thought is no longer comes out in a nice thin line and i was right it doesn't come out the same but all is not lost it still makes a thin line not as thin but still thin and without the long applicator it will hopefully clog less.  It might take awhile but I will grow to love like the original.

CUSTOM ALBUM

Finished another custom album, this one was for a friend of mine and all the pictures were her husbands family.  These are outstanding pictures some of them from russia, and one was actually taken in china when they were fleeing russia.  These are my favorite two layout- they are not super elaborate layouts but you can't get too dimensional when making an album with 20 pages i need to make sure everything fits.  But it is not just the layouts i love it is the pictures i love how old they are and i especially love the one older picture by itself she looks so regal and grand

this one uses pink paislee resist paper that i inked with black soot and red barn distress ink matted on cream cardstock.  Used glitz paper misted with water and crunched into ruffes layered on top of one another

  and finished with brads.  The top left corner of the picture i wanted to represent the head dress from russian traditional dance.

My favorite, isn't this picture amazing!  For this layout i created a background pattern using pattern paper and cardstock, i repeat the pattern on the background paper but don't fill the whole sheet instead make it random- this makes it more eye catching and creates a picture clutter.  Finish with inking and sewing flowers and hinges.

dexter

i have discovered DEXTER i am watching it on netflix as i scrapbook for the graphic 45 design team call.  It is really kind of a dark drama but very addicting.  where have i been?  did you know there are 6 seasons?
A serial killer who kills only bad people really bad people so you like him but hate him at the same time hes like a good bad guy. recommend-not for the queasy!

NEW LAYOUT- kaisercraft Sweet nothing,
used prima brick wall template ink with distress ink, and i believe sprayed with some glimmer mist, next cut out the brick formed by the template to make a whole in the brick wall for the picture to go behind.  Used scrap fx brick chipboard cut it up of course because i need to cut up everything, layered on top, fuzzy cut the cherub, and birdcage from weet nothings paper, layered with flowers, and kaiser craft wood flourish.  The top right corner is another piece of sweet nothing paper ripped and inked then used liquid pearls to highlight the detail in the paper.

I have been waiting for new CHA products i ordered but sadly it is not here yet, and i have so many ideas and no product so watch out once product starts arriving IT ON!!  I have new home decor scrapbooking projects, mini albums and a large canvas all created in my mind just need products!!
