The waiting begins...

So I applied for the Jillibean Soup Design Team. I'm excited that I talked myself into finally doing it and I'm going to be optimistic. Fingers and toes crossed on this one!!!

I also want to share a layout I made about a week ago. ScrapChicks has a great Sketch Class going on through the end of March. March Inspired by...Sketch Class includes 12 sketches created from existing layouts created by the members of ScrapChicks. I used this sketch here...


and created an 8x8 called A Little Bit Country, here....


Journaling reads: So we just might be a lot of country. Scott likes taking the dogs coon hunting, we both like playing in the mud, and we both love to fish. I don't know a thing about coon hunting but I do love turkey hunting. And there's nothing better than feeling the tug in your fishing line.

Don't forget to head over to ScrapChicks to check out the 12 sketches featured in their class this month!

Happy Misting

The last 4 layouts I've done all have mist on them. I'm in love with masking off portions of the design and just going to town on the paper. 

This is my favorite layout that I've completed in the last ohh ummmm 4 months? I haven't scrapped a lot of 12x12s lately (I've been doing nothing but minis) so this one is on the top of my list. This is the wonderful Scott, my farm boy. The whole title reads, "This Smile Makes Me So Happy."
I took a big sticker that said "happy" and stuck it down on the paper. Then I took a tiny bottle of Smooch Spritz and sprayed it like crazy. I took the sticker off and that's what it looked like. LOVE! I also traced the outline of the letters with a black Zig marker. Very easy peasy.

Hoping to post that tutorial for y'all tomorrow!

First Post

My first post on my new blog. I'm super excited to share everything scrappy with y'all. I'm hoping this blog will help me find a place in the crafting world and take me to new places. I'll update more later but I wanted to share some rolled fabric flowers I made the other day. I just love them. 


Tutorial coming soon!
