Christmas card

This is my first attempt at chalking over clear ink; I have never cared for chalking by it's self, but I really like it when it's done over the clear ink. Very pretty.

Altered note Books

I used Stamping Up's more mustard and not quite navy card stock
CTMH's sunny yellow and garden green inks to do this project
This is an index card binder that I put my card page maps or sketches in so I can take it to crops with me
This is a small sketch pad that I like to keep in my purse to jot down sketches and notes when inspiration strikes me.

Masking

This is my first tutorial so forgive the sound on the first part the mike was rubbing against my shirt

Happy Hoppers
Seed Spitters

I made this paper using white card stock and CTMH Ink refiller's; Twilight blue, Desert sand, and Black with Tim Holtz's ink applicator. The stamp is from an Autumn Leaves collection.

How I made My Rack

Some one wanted to know how I made my scrap rack

I used 3 pieces of 12x12 Masonite
4 hinges to put the wings on got
industrial sticky Velcro, glued a
board to the back to prop it up and
ordered the spindrers from a site
for 4.00 each and thats it
I ordered the spinders from this site
and they were soo fast

I also order the pages from this site

My Scrap Rack

I saw the scrap racks on the net and had to have one BUT they were 225.00 plus. Sooo I put on my thinking cap and made one for about 30.00 And I love it! I had forgotten how much cool stuff I had in all my binders, now it's out where I can see it. How cool is that?
Now I have all my acrylic stamps, ribbon, stickers, page kits, coluzzles, templates and more where I can lay my hands right on them

A Giggle for you

As You Slide Down the Banister of Life, remember... 1. Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggert have written an impressive new book. It's called... 'Ministers Do More Than Lay People' 2. Transvestite: A guy who likes to eat, drink, and be Mary. 3. The difference between the Pope and your boss: the Pope only expects you to kiss his ring. 4. My mind works like lightning. One brilliant flash and it's gone. 5. The only time the world beats a path to your door is when you're in the bathroom. 6. I hate sex in the movies. Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink spilled, and that ice, well, it really chilled the mood. 7. It used to be only death and taxes were inevitable. Now, of course, there's shipping and handling, too. 8. A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the impression that he just cleaned the whole house. 9. My next house will have no kitchen. Just vending machines and a large trash can. 10. A blonde said, 'I was worried that my mechanic might try to rip me off. I was relieved when he told me all I needed was turn signal fluid.' 11. Definition of a teenager? God's punishment for... enjoying sex. 12. As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point the wrong way.

Distress Embossing

I used Tim Holtz's Walnut distress embossing powder to stamp the image; It comes out looking like sandpaper, then I colored it in using my Close to my Heart ink and my water brush.

Holiday Planner

This is the Holiday Christmas Planner that I am working on

I made the calendar pages to where you can replace the calendars each year

I used my slot punch so I could slide the calendars under the slots

I used my print master program to make the calendars and trimmed the top and bottom so they would fit
