home is where the heart is........

Good morning my Scraptastic friends! Tomorrow is the last day of Tax Season....and I can't wait. 

When I got home from work on Friday, some of the 2nd May kit which I'm calling "Classic Girl" was waiting on my doorstep. I just couldn't help tearing into some of those papers, they're just so pretty......

Here's my new wall art......"Home Is Where The Heart Is".....

Here's how I did it. I cut out 6 3x3 squares from 3 of the PP. I used my Glue Glider Pro to attach one of each to my background. For the other 3, I used my Imaginisce D-Stress tool around all of the edges, then I used my AC dimensional foam squares to attach them to the squares already on my paper. The teal letters are AC Thickers Jewelry Box Glitter Aqua, the black letters are Cosmo Cricket chipboard licorice, and the red letters are AC Thickers Playroom Cherry felt, all were from my stash. For the butterfly, I used some of my smooch spritz.....first I sprayed the whole butterfly with "Sun Kissed" and when that dried I sprayed it with "Black Velvet", and then one more time with "Sun Kissed". I glued on two buttons that I had left over from the Scraptastic Club April Kit "Enjoy the Little Things", and for the antennas I used a couple of coursage pins, I colored the "white pearl" with a black sharpie.

welcoming spring.....

Good morning my Scraptastic friends....It's Sunday which means two things.....1. Tonight is the season premier of True Blood on HBO (is it 9 o'clock yet?) and 2. I'm sharing some more wall art today for What's Scrapping...Welcoming Spring.....

for this project I used some Kraft colored chipboard (that's what I use as backing for packing the Scraptastic kits). I cut the lime colored cardstock at 4 inches and the green cardstock at 3 1/2 inches, then I cut little "strips" at the top of each one and quilled them using my Imaginisce Petal Roller. I attached them to the chipboard using my Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro. I then used some of my Smooch Spritz Olive Green shimmer. All of the embellishments are from the Cosmo Cricket Togetherness line, the mini alphas are October Afternoon Mini Market Stickers and the regular alphas are AC Foam Thickers.

 

Thanks for letting me share with you today.....have a great Sunday!

a little d-stressing and some mist

Good morning my Scraptastic friends! It's Saturday, and I'm about to be on my way to work.....bummer. When I got home last night, there was a little scrappy box at my door.....my new Imaginisce D-stress tool and some Smooch Spritz....I couldn't wait to play.

Here's a lo I did with some distressing and the "Enjoy the Little Things" kit

 and here's a card with some Smooch Spritz and distressing...

I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend....oh, and don't forget that tomorrow is the last day for the musical challenge here on the blog.....
