I've opened an Etsy shop

I have had such a great response to all of the things I have been creating with my Silhouette that I decided to open an Etsy shop.

I only have a few things listed so far, but will be adding more in the next few days.

Would love for you to come check it out.

Easter Weekend Scrapbooking

This past long weekend my boyfriend, his brother and I decided to drive out to Edmonton to visit their family. They took turns driving, we left at around 7pm on Thursday and got there around 7am Friday morning. Boy were they surprised to be woken up by us. It was a great weekend with beautiful weather, lots of yummy food, and some shopping :) I managed to score some of the new Amy Tangerine line, as well as some new Studio Calico and Crate Paper. Since we drove out, I preplanned some pages, printed a bunch of the Sunday Sketches over at Studio Calico, printed photos, and brought my scrapbook stuff. I managed to get 5 layouts done! Oh and my car has a new name given to "her" by Steve's brother Matt - Penelope. She may not have much power, but that little Tercel got us there and back in one piece with no problems, and she's cheap on gas. Oh and the odometer hit 250,000 km on the way back!

Blue skies for the drive home on Monday

Here are the layouts I completed while I was there:

Also, I've been having so much fun cutting stuff with my Cameo. I think I like cutting and designing the stuff more than I do using it :). I made the ticket and the journaling cards for the "Spidey Cat" layout with my Cameo. Since I'm loving it so much, I am thinking of listing some stuff in an Etsy shop.

I'm thinking maybe some of these:

and also maybe some "polaroid" type frames that fit the Project Life pockets. What do you think?
Is there anything else that you would like to see?

 

Seattle Roadtrip

I haven't posted anything in a while. So I thought with this blog post I would share my most favorite project to date. I made it using the Road Trip line from October Afternoon. I also used a card from Orange Twist on the cover.
Let me know what you think :)

ETSY

So it has been quite a while since I have posted on this blog. I had my gallbladder out in the summer, and lost the urge to scrapbook. October is a month of birthdays for me (including my birthday) So I have started getting back into my scrapbook stash by making cards.


In my search for happy birthday stamps or tags, or anything, I ended up on Etsy. Etsy is a website to buy and sell handmade items, vintage items, or craft supplies. I have heard of this site before, but never really spent any time looking into it. It is a great resource for scrapbook, and card supplies and embellishments!
Some of my favorite shops so far:
leprintemps
paperandinkling
PaperRoute
livingroomfloor
purple mushroom

Through all of my searching, I realized that I could make a shop too. I would make thank you cards. So today I went to work at making 4 sets of thank you cards. I present to you my new etsy shop

My listings are on the right side of the screen.
After all of this card making, and working with my pretty papers again, I can't wait to get back into scrapbooking.
Further posts on that to follow...
Thanks for looking!
