Kaiser Papers and Pearls

This is a page I made using mostly Kaiser papers and adhesive pearls! http://www.paperpatchcrafts.com/ has loads of adhesive pearl choices and Kaiser papers! The paper is awesome, it's so thick....one of my favorites for sure!

Of course I added in some Primas! The pic is not so great....with no make-up, squinting eyes....but HEY it's a beach picture !!!!

Bazzill In Stitch'z

I finally gave in to just looking at these great stitching templates and bought a few sets from http://www.scrapbooking4less.com.au/ . Quick to make and I like how it turned out!

Here is the template. I used MM paper needles to pierce the paper and sew in the fibers!

and the finished card!

Prima Build a Page Sketch Contest

I absolutely love Prima flowers! My problem is that I like to keep them rather than use them! Well, my stash is overflowing so I am trying REALLY hard to use some of them to make room for more of the new ones coming in! A Prima contest is just the right opportunity.

This is the sketch I worked from! It is the Prima sketch of the month!

This is my entry! I used all Prima products with the exception of the ink. Most of these products were purchases at http://www.paperpatchcrafts.com/ I loved doing this page, so pink and girly, but it really reminded me of how fast my girls are growing up! Way too fast!

GREAT CLASS HERE!!!!! Click and See!

I used a precut album bought at the Paper Popsicles store....but Stacey from PP has a wonderful class on how to make them yourself! Check it out by clicking on the title above! I used some of the cutest paper from my June kit and Primas from Paper Patch Crafts.

My girls love this album with pics of their neighbourhood friends! A few left blank for more recent pics to be taken soon!

Cards Cards and More Cards

Got to love the scrap box! Here are some recent cards I made using my scraps! Love to add Prima flowers, stamped greetings, and ribbon too! Quick and easy!

Blind Scrapbooking....

I am absolutely hooked on this "Blind Scrapbooking". It is so much fun! The instructions are posted by the Member in charge of the weekends' crop and then anyone who is participating gets to scrapping. The projects are posted in the gallery by Sunday midnight (Australia time)! Then members of the board get to vote on a winner for each challenge!

Although, I am always tempted to peak when people start posting....I usually wait until mine is done first! Funny sometimes how the same supplies and instructions yield completely unique pages from each participant!

This weekend is Blind Scrapping Crop #3 at http://www.scrapbooking4less.com.au/ , the pages are 8.5X11. Different size than I usually scrap so the challenge is welcoming!

The Last Day of School

The last day of school, spending time at the beach was a blast. This photo is of the flower garden and won me a cool prize at the Blind Scrapping Challenge at Scrapbooking4Less. I used PRETTY PAPER from the Paper Popsicles July Kit!


The girls loved the beach, even the cold water wasn't so bad! PP....I always thought until just recently that it was short for Pretty Paper! Then again, a lot of "P"atterned "P"aper is very pretty! These papers are from the Paper Popsicles June Kit....and I just LOVE them!


Every morning the ritual is sending the girls off to the bus stop. "I love you!" and "Don't forget to wave!" So as they drive off, I wave frantically and blow kisses until I can no longer see their little faces in the windows! This photo was taken the morning of the last day of school, the last wave of the school year! Have a happy safe summer!
