That's Amore Acrylic Album Clock

Here's my latest project - an acrylic album altered to become a clock. I first saw this idea on another Close to My Heart consultant's website and was inspired. (Thanks, Tracy Mason!)

I used the That's Amore paper pack and chocolate rub-ons as well as one of the 4x4 Foundry Frames.

Hope you enjoy!

Big Boy Haircut

I've been on a mission to complete pages before the baby arrives. I've been quite neglectful about my 2006 and 2007 albums and here were are in 2009! Thanks to a week-long retreat last week, I did accomplish many pages, but stil have many to go. This set of pages I power-paged but hadn't gotten around to doing so I put them together. I really like how they turned out! It's of my DS's first and only barber shop haircut (his aunt is a hair dresser) and he did such a good job of being a big boy!

I used Close to My Heart's Good Times paper pack and the Friendship Alphabet.

The 6th Picture Challenge

I've been challenged by Elaine at Times Captured

These are the challenge instructions:

•Go to your photo folder in your computer.

•Go to the 6th folder of the photos.

•Go to the sixth picture.

•Put the picture on your blog and description of it.

•Invite six friends to join the challenge.

•Link them in your blog and let them know they have been challenged!


The 6th thing didn't quite work out for me because there were only 2 pictures in my 6th folder, but by far pictures some of my most favorite scrapbook pages. I posted both pictures since there were only 2. The pages are of my son Zeke in his cowboy garb - he doesn't go anywhere without those boots or hat (well, a little more now without than before, but...you get the idea).

2009 February Stamp of the Month Artwork

Back to posting...FINALLY!

It's good to be posting once again. After my laptop crashed TWO times before Christmas, it took some time to get back on track of all the e-mails, downloading/uploading pictures, and finishing paperwork. I'm glad to be back to having only a few pictures on the camera (which makes it easier to download and upload to Winkflash) and I'm caught up on paperwork so that gives me more time for creating and sharing.

This little project is my January workshop which is this Saturday. It's a fun little desktop calendar using Close to My Heart's January Stamp of the Month, Moments in Time. The workshop isn't full (I know it's only a few days before, but you can still RSVP if you like) but it's going to be a quick one and a good price! Only $6.

30 Cards for $30 - Assembly Instructions

Whew! It's good to be back online. I've lots to tell, but most importantly, need to post the directions on how to assemble the cards in my 30 Cards for $30 workshop. For those of you who need to assemble, best of luck. I hope you enjoy them!

Some words of note:
1. I've tried to list helpful hints in assembling the cards - use them or don't; just things I've discovered in putting them together.

2. Some pieces are slightly altered; I've tried to note that on the descriptions.

3. You should be able to click on the picture and a new window with a larger view should open so you can read the directions attached to each picture.

Happy Thanksgiving!
