Scrap Friendzy Bonus Challenges & Other Stuff

I am having a blast at summer camp! I was voted into week 2 and I'm thrilled about that! Thanks to all who voted for me!!! It's not too late to join the fun, there are Raks for the weekly challenges! Come play!
Here are a few of the bonus challenges I completed. Check out the forum here !
Then I had these 8x10 canvases lying about my scraproom just waiting to be used! I needed a few small wall hanging for my bedroom....so out came the suede and blue glimmermist, then I added a few Hambley rub-ons that I've been hanging onto for a while! I like that they are so simple but pretty too!
And...a birthday celebration tonight for my friend Josee! She's the gal in the B.F.F. page I made for challenge #1 of Camp Friendzy! I pulled out some dies I bought at Scrapfest and made this cute card! I used some of my textured cardstock, and embossed the dress with my new Tim Holtz embossing folders! Love that the texture is so pronounced...he did awesome with these! The lace is Webster and the flower a Prima of course!


PS. Don't forget to mention Love 146 on your blog to help raise awareness. Wouldn't want a $20 GC Rak from Art Freckles to go to waste! You don't have to post the entire video...just make reference, link to mine or Shannons' blog if you like...anything to help raise awereness during their campaign! See post below for more information!

Bits of My Space

While at Scrapfest a few weekends ago, my friend Jackie was on a hunt for a stamp shelf! Lucky for me....we found two...yes TWO of these drawers! So I was fortunate enough to have one too! This is the before picture (Courtesy of Jackie aka Lambcrop)...I had already started painting mine!
And this is the "after" picture. It is not full yet...when it is, there won't be so much brown! I might add more paper bits inside the squares to add more colour! But it is hanging in my scraproom and serving its' function! I used MM paint, some distress inks, Prima blue Rosettes, a scrap ribbon and a Whimsy button from My Little Bit of Whimsy.
While I'm updating, I might as well share more bits of my room! Some of my favourites!
The scrap punch drawer!
The dry embossing and die cut plate drawer! Yes...they are organized in a bamboo drawer organizer.

My Peg Board!
Cricut Cartridges and more punches.

Another Bamboo drawer organizer...this one on the wall!

The Clip It Up! I love this....so much storage here! The lower part houses my thickers!

Shelves that hold some of my Prima and other flowers!
