La la love Graphic 45

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

Yes, yes I do! I absolutely love the Graphic 45 paper. Of course I couldn’t resist purchasing some and starting another project. Here it is close to midnight on a Monday (I should be sleeping). Instead of going to sleep at 10pm tonight like I planned, 10pm seemed the best time to start a project!

dsc06089.jpgI love to go to crops! I was actually in my element today at PSB (my favorite scrapbook store) from 10:30am until midnight! I love the laughter, the stories and the friendships that go on there.

I have such a strong desire to write my family history. The great thing about scrapbooking is that I get to write that story in my own words and my own way. Because of scrapbooking my family and loved ones will know just how much I cherish them.

I just spent the day with so many wonderful women (all amazingly talented), all there in one room with common purpose. How amazing it is to get to know these women and feel an instant connection through our craft.

I love you Easter Bunny…

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

…all because of that old commercial…I can’t say “Easter Bunny” without “I love you”…

…I don’t even remember what the commercial was for…some kind of candy I’m sure. Random!

Speaking of bunnies, I designed a Easter layout for PSB. As I was painting the bunny for the layout, my daughter informed me that I needed to make sure the bunny had an apron. I thought it was a cute idea so of course I obliged. Then I added eyes…it seemed to need a nose too…and then a smile…goodness, a pearl necklace! That’s one decked out bunny!

Here I am…a girl who dreams about paper and what to do with it!

I love taking photos and I love paper so…naturally I love to scrapbook.

I teach some scrapbooking classes at a store in Paradise, CA called “Paradise Scrapbook Boutique

I love it there…I feel so inspired each time I walk through the door. I was lucky enough to tag a long to CHA in Orange County with Karen (the owner of PSB) and her sister Deb. It was my first time to CHA ever and OH BABY it was so fun! I came right home and started working on my new class…check it out:

I picked up some Easter paper today and worked on some projects with my kids, we made cute little paper-covered eggs…the egg probably would have been really cute if I would have used mod podge!

I am going to be starting my own website “Prettypaperbook.com” where I will be selling hand-made albums (mostly 6×6, 8×8 and shaped albums). I’m excited to get it up and running.

My husband (computer genius that he is) and his designer friends are still working on how the site will look…I think they’re really just buying me time to make more albums. Hopefully it will be up and running by the first week in March! Keep your finger’s crossed!
