True Love Scrapbook Pages

Well, Valentine's Day has come and gone, so now it's time to scrapbook all those pics with your sweetie! Here are some V-day pages I made to capture all those cutie-pie moments.p> Yes, I know, I am having a full on paper-love-affair with Mr. Big, but just look at those cute brackets!!! Can you blame me?? These come from the "Hearts and Brackets" originals die (115955). And the fun with Mr. Big doesn't stop there, the letters for my title come from the Simple Alphabet set of Bigz dies.

In the next two photos, you'll notice some texture-embossed polka dots for extra detail. And YES, Mr. Big did that, too! I just used the polka dot embossing folder (117335) featured in the Occasions Mini for just $7.95!! Do you have a copy of the Occasions Mini, yet?? If not, email me and get a copy for FREE! Helpful Hint: I also used a stampin' sponge and sponged on a little ink to really make those dots pop! The adorable DSP is the Sending Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (117153) and I stamped the background images using the "With All My Heart" stamp set (118134 wood-mount, 118623 clear mount), both from the Occasions Mini, as well!

My Stampin' Studio

Every now and again, I get questions about my "stampin' space", so today, I thought I would share a little peak of my Stampin' Studio with you. This is where I spend a good chunk of every day (it is definitely my favorite room in the house!).

Was there ever a cuter way to store your stampin' stuff than in these cute baskets (below)? My husband's company manufactures inexpensive wicker baskets and mix and match basket liners. The perfect storage solution for my stampin' supplies! His company primarily sells to retail stores, but if you are interested in purchasing, please email me and I'll see if I can hook you up! ;) To see more baskets and liners, you can visit their website HERE.

Stampin' Up!'s Color Caddy and Stack and Store are real life savers when it comes to storing and organizing ink pads and accessories. The Stack and Store makes it so easy to find small embellishments in a snap because the containers are clear, so I can just whirl the turnstile, and have what I am looking for in hand in just seconds! To store my punches, I picked up some Bygel kitchen racks at Ikea for just $2.99 each. I saw this idea at Stampin' Up! convention 2008.

Bird on a Branch Thinking of You

Today's card is an easel card I made for my card-making club this month. Want to find out more about my card and scrapbooking classes? Check out my calendar! www.meetup.com/stamptastic

Have you seen an easel card before?? I just love the idea! I found a great Easel card tutorial HERE: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/easelcard/

I also used the Bird on a Branch stamp set (113266), which coordinates with the gorgeous Flock Together DSP (114018).

Have you noticed the Scallop Trim punch in the Sale A Bration brochure, yet? I sure have! I used it to create the trim on the base of the card. I think it creates just such a pretty border!

Have you heard about Sale a Bration? It is Stampin' Up!'s biggest sale of the year, so to find out more about it, click here! The best part is, Sale-A-Bration gives you a chance to earn the versatile Scallop Trim punch for Free!

Things I love... U!

Stampin' Up! announced a need for "event display stampers", so I decided to apply... I am waiting to hear back so keep your fingers crossed for me!

They asked applicants to submit 3 cards, one 6x6 scrapbook page, and one 8.5x11 scrapbook page. Today's project is the 8.5x11 scrapbook page I sent in... What do you think??

This page reminds me so much of my mother-in-law (god bless her!). She was so excited when my husband and I got engaged, she had us get "dressed up" and took us in the backyard for a 150+ picture photo shoot. So cute of her! So many of those pics are my favorites of us to this day. She passed away in 2006, and we miss her so much.

I'll point out a few of my faves on this page...I used the Bella Bleu DSP (113974) (so gorgeous!), the new Very Vanilla satin ribbon (117291)(I am SO in love with all the new colors for satin ribbon!), and a half-back pearl from the pretties kit (109114).

Beautiful Butterflies

Here's a card with lots of sources of inspiration! Our late night stampers group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/StampinUpLNStampers) challenge this week is to create a project with butterflies, I used the Mojo Monday sketch challenge, and was inspired by Mary Fish's "Heart" card also featured on the Mojo Monday page. The orange and black remind me of Monarch butterflies, and so I was also inspired by Mother Nature. :)

One of my favorite new items in the Occasions Mini catalog is the Beautiful Wings Embosslit (118138). You just run it through your Big Shot and voila! 5 mini butterflies are fluttering around your paper craft room! I used the embosslit to create all the mini butterflies in my card, and I also used the Beautiful Butterflies Die to create the larger butterfly at the bottom of the card. Boy, Mr. Big has done it again! ;)
