My Mini book has now been published by Northridge Publishing in the February Cricut Mini Album

Update:  This is the book I designed this past Summer and has now been published in the Cricut Mini Book Magazine online at Northridge Publishing.  Three whole pages.  So excited.  I wish I could get a paper copy to carry around and show everyone but due to cost it is online only.  

This is my next class that I will be teaching at Scrapbook Blessings in Newbury Park.  The paper and embellishments are from the Bo Bunny Key Lime Collection which has such bold colorful graphics.

Back to School Mini book Class

Wow I just found this post and realized it was never completed.  This is a class I taught several months ago.  I used a lot of Glimmer Mist, stamps, stencils,  Cricut diecuts, 

twine, ribbon  and embellishments.  

The rosette on the front cover was made using the Tim Holtz rosette dies and the Graphic 45 see through windows were filled with beads, buttons, and paper clips.  

SVG Cuts -There's No place like home

I am so excited to share this post today.  This is my wonderful friend Beth with the Christmas present I made her using a SVG cuts file and kitchen cabinet.  This was the most perfect project I could have made for Beth as this was an awesome Christmas for her and her family.  

Beth is the owner of Scrapbook Blessings where I teach classes and an amazing friend.   

 Leo Beth's husband was able to come home early from Kuwait just a few days before Christmas.  He has been on deployment for 8 months.  Beth, Santa and the local mall were able to pull off a big surprise for her three kids.  She asked them to get a picture with Santa to send to dad.  While posing dad was there "photo bombing" the pictures. Meanwhile family and friends had gathered to be in on the surprise.   Here is a collage of pics from the surprise.  I was so blessed to be a part of this and be there.  Beth was so thrilled with her sign which made me really happy.  

I am at the far left of the bottom center picture with other friends and family.  

Here is a picture of the cabinet painted with black chalboard spray paint and then the SVG file cut out of white vinyl.  

Here is a picture from SVG Cuts.  This is their first vinyl projects and I just love them.  Can't wait to make some more.

Farm book finished

Yesterday I posted the Christmas book I made in a recent class with Nancy at Scrapbook Blessings.  This is the farm book which I had posted before but now I have my pictures added to it from a big trip to the pumpkin patch with two of my grandkids.  So many wonderful places to add pictures.  

Bo Bunny layouts for Christmas and Elf on the Shelf

It's really strange to be making projects with Halloween, Fall and Christmas themed papers all at the same time.  Of course when your teach at a Scrapbook store you always have to work way ahead.  I was asked to make these layouts using Bo Bunny Christmas themed paper.  I just love this line.  

It has a traditional feel.  

It has adorable paper for those of you that do Elf on a Shelf.  

Store sample layouts

I wish the pictures showed the colors better of these layouts.  They really are pretty colors and the paper lines are from Adorn It.  

These were all made as store samples for the store where I teach classes.  

Love this line of paper and the gorgeous flowers.  

Tea party birthday layouts

I just love this adorable new paper for birthdays that I was asked to make layouts with.  These are for the scrapbook store where I teach classes.  Definitely girly girl and I will be making personal birthday layouts with this.
