Sea World/Aquarium layouts

These are two layouts I did recently for the Scrapbook store where I teach.  

Back to School Album

Yesterday I taught a Back to School Mini using a Tattered Angels book, Glimmer Mist and School paper. We used lots of different techniques with the Glimmer Mist including stencils, bubble wrap, sponges, etc. 

 I used a bunch of different things from the store, from my stash and school supplies.  

 I also made a few Cricut Cuts for the album 

Shadowbox with new Graphic 45 Nursery Rhymes Paper

Yesterday I went to the Scrapbook Store where I teach to get the new Graphic 45 Nursery Rhyme, Typography and 12 Days of Christmas paper.  I sat down right away and made this shadowbox with the new Nursery Rhyme paper.  Love the graphics and colors.  I think this might be a class in the near future.  

The shadowbox is from 7 Gypsies and has 12 squares and a cute little handle.  I used three pieces of paper and ribbon.

Another Copic class

 I took another Copic class last weekend and was really happy with the way this came out.  I find this so relaxing.  This is an easel fold on top of a cute little box with a drawer.  Would be great for a gift card.  I love the lavender color and lace punch and flowers too.

Minibook with Steampunk Spells

Yesterday I posted a Halloween banner I made with Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells.  So if you missed it check out yesterdays post.  Today I would like to share the mini book I created for a class next month at Scrapbook Blessings in Newbury Park, California.  The Steampunk lady on the top of the box pops up or lays flat.  Inside the box is an accordian book that folds out.  There are tons of picture spots for all your goblin and ghoul pictures.  

The top is an easel card so it can pop up or lay flat.

Banner made with Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells

Wow I guess I took a two week break from blogging without even planning it.  :)   I have been crazy busy with the Southern California Shop Hop, teaching classes, two mini vacations and other projects.  I have been scrapbooking too so need to get busy and start posting things on my blog again.  So I want to start out with a project I have done for a class at my local scrapbook store.  I used the new Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells to create  a Halloween Banner.  I used the Cricut Cart Pretty Pennants for the basic shapes and the Tim Holtz rosette maker for the rosettes.  The letters are cut from Kate's ABC.  

In the back you can also see a banner I made for the store for Shop Hop.  

Here is the banner hanging in the store.

My surprise meeting with Julie Nutting

The last few days I have been posting pictures of the Southern California Shop Hop.  Forty one stores are participating for 2 1/2 weeks and I was lucky enough to go to 10 of them the first day.  While down in the LA area we decided to stop by the new Prima outlet.  Let's just say they have some amazing deals and I bought a ton of flowers for my classes and personal use.  

Here is the outside 

So this was the best part of my Shop Hop day.  While in the outlet checking out all the flowers the store manager asked if I liked the Prima paper doll stamps made by Julie Nutting.  I very positively said yes and told her I was planning on taking a class from Julie in November when she was in my area.  So the manager then said had I ever met her and did I know what she looked like and I said not really.  Her response was what if she was in the store and I pointed to a lady next to me and said like if this was her?  I said no I wouldn't know and the manager said well guess what it is!!!!!  I practically lost it.  Julie was really nice and allowed my friends to take my picture with her even though she was planning to just run in and out of the store.  What a great surprise this was for me.  Can't wait for her class in November.  

Just imagine rows and rows of flowers.
