Camp Scrap!

So I finally got some mojo and made some pages!! Yippee!!!

I have been super inspired by May Flaum and her daily Camp Scrap projects. I love her style!

After seeing this tag, I was inspired to go digging around and find my old  rainbow inks




. Are they alcohol inks? I think they are. I used my Tim Holtz craft mat and some glossy cardstock and pretended they were. Here's what I made.




I used some Versamark ink + white embossing powder and made a resist first. Next, I swirled around some blue and green inks on my craft mat and dipped the glossy cardstock in it. I added a few stamped images and walked away for a few days.


Today, I had a ball going through some of my vintage stash to find bits and pieces for this tag. Helloooo Making Memories definition stickers!!! I finished all the layering off with a coat of Martha Stewart gold glitter paint. I started off just highlighting with it but then the crazy glitter lady inside me took over and I painted the whole shebang!

I also scrapped 2 pages this week.

 A red, white and blue confection inspired by May's "play with new paper" challenge.


 I had to use this awesome red and white chevron pattern by MME. Little bits of Jenni Bowlin stickers on here too.


Next up was this quick page for my Disney album. The journaling is about how Chip took this photo op to a new level by flipping my DH the bird!!! Ha ha ha...very funny! Although Chip only has 4 fingers so maybe it's just a misunderstanding!
All product on this one is from American crafts.

JULY!

Has it really been a whole month since I've blogged??

Summer is in full swing here now and June was just a busy month filled with lots of driving to and from final exams and work and a bunch of end-of school-year-activities. We also celebrated a bunch of birthdays (mine included) plus a few graduations.

I'm aiming to fill my July with lots of scrapping !

Kit Creations!

So far, I've made 5 layouts with the kit I put together after enrolling in the Inspired by Shimelle Challenge over at Two Peas.



I decided to focus on the proofs I had from my wedding photos. It was only 19 years ago!




I did 2 family birthday pages also.



I must admit, I'm a little over my kit. It's hard to limit what to create with when I have a bunch of new supplies sitting here. I definitely will make some more pages and cards though! Thanks for stopping by!

Inspired by Shimelle~Kit Challenge

Jennifer (liveteachcreate) over at Two Peas started a new challenge based on Shimelle's NSD video.



Make up a kit and see how many projects you can make. Okay, my kit is made although I have a hard time sticking to the limits! I did the best I could! =)




I picked at least 6 cardstocks
                        10 sheets of patterned paper (some of these have been in my stash for a few years and I pulled it out as a use it or lose it type scenario)
                          1 SC Mister Huey mist
                         1 black Thickers
                          1 sheet OA small letters
                         1 sheet Crate border stickers
                          Set of Amy Tangerine stamps
                         1 partial sheet of Simple stories circles to cut apart
                         1 package of BasicGrey wood buttons
                          2 small packs of BasicGrey bling
                         1 chipboard package of Jenni Bowlin tabs

Time to get scrapping!!
