New layout: PACS

I created this layout as part of the pre-challenges for PACS (Paper and Co. Show) 2010 weekend.

The challenge was:

- Use only the 3 colors of the logo

- Create a title using the 4 letter of PACS (My title is: Playful and Creative Scrapbookers)

- Use a picture of your favorite scrapper (I used the pictures of the teachers of classes I took)

I was very surprised (and complimented) when I heard my name as winner (2nd place) in this challenge!

I used:

Cardstocks: Sonburn

Letter Stickers: ChatterBox (colored with Acrylic Paints)

Sewing: Marker pens roll

Last week I went to build up my confidence (or should I say: try to get my ass kicked!!) - I went to sewing workshop. Since I bought my sewing machine I sewed only few items. I know I want to sew but I have some kind of block. Anyway - I went in order to solve this issue, mostly with myself.

I sewed this roll for marker pens for my daughters (I sewed another one at home, so they both have one). It was a great experience!

Thank you to: Miri for your patience, Maya for hosting the workshop, Karin for coordinating this!

New layout: Christmas

This layout was inspired by Tuesday Trio sketch #46. The challenge was: Christmas. This year I had my first Christmas experience, during PACS (paper and Co. Show). On our second crop night we were asked to come wearing 'Christmas'. Since I don't have anything related, I came with white shirt & red top. Symbolic. I know exactly which picture to adhere to this layout - but it's not printed yet...

I used:

Cardstocks & Rubons: Dear Lizzy + American Crafts

Ink: Ink It Up!

Pen: Sharpie

Tools: Cuttlebug + Spellbinders nestabilities

Other: Grosgrain ribbon, Kars - Glitter Glue

New card: Purple swap

I participated in a swap of purple cards. I created this card for "the queen of purple" - Keren. I kept thinking of clean and simple style and created this card with pop-up circles:

I used:

Cardstocks & papers: Sonburn, Kraft, DCWV & some unknown scraps

Stamps: JustRite Stampers

Tools: Stampin' Up circle punches

Pen: Sharpie

New layout: Smile

I participated in Vicki Boutin's workshop (named: All Squared Up) at PACS. Vicki was very playful and nice (and talks a lot LOL) - it was a fun workshop, I used glitter & flock for the first time, but I don't think I learned anything new.

Anyway - here's my layout - which is very similar to Vicki's example:

I used:

cardstocks, papers, die cuts & stickers: Doodlebug

Tools: Border punch - Fiskars
