Life's A Journey Mini Album

Life is definitely a journey and I have to remind myself of 

the long road sometimes, so when I saw this quote on paper I decided

to base my entire Mixable Tag album on it!

For this one I inked the acrylic cover page in blue then

used Krylon Gold Paint and the Clear Scraps Mascil

to create the cover. 

 The muscle is called Dandelion Wind...

Really fun project, cannot wait tot share more!

Mini Frames Mom And Son Shooting Day

I have returned from my mini vacation in Florida with my boys and

I have about 15 projects to share, so I will start today with this one!

This is from the Creating Made Easy July Kit, 

I turned a mini album into frames.

I used photos of my son's first time at the gun range and

me teaching him gun safety. 

 These photos brought back so may memories! :)

It's the feature project from the kit, so check it out.

Another fun project from the 

May 2015 Creating Made Easy kit!

 On this one I used Modeling Paste paired with one of Clear Scraps

stencils. 

 I graduated the ink and I love the effects on the cover pages!

Tomorrow  is Stampendous Day! So stay tuned! :)

Happy Monday friends.

so proud of everything he tries and does.

Inspiration Encouragement Mini

 Hey there friends, it is official SPRING BREAK and also

April 1st! Time to share the latest kit from Creating Made Easy~

I love this kit, it is light, bright, and perfect for spring. 

I created this mini keyring album all about encouragement. 

It's so cute and a perfect bright spot for my friend's who are feeling down. 

How are you celebrating today?

Happy April my friends....

My Two Hearts

Good morning friends, it's already Thursday and this has been a hard

week so why not focus on my sweet boys?!

I made this (Heart) You Album from Clear Scraps of course

one of their Mini Word Albums along with their Mascils and

some Krylon paint. 

I coated the cover with Krylon paint on the back then used a

Clear Scraps Mascil on the front with turquoise paint. 

 Every page I spritzed with Krylon paint on the edges. 

With my new diagnosis and battles this week, it's nice to just

focus on my loves, my hearts...the only reason I stand strong!

Have a beautiful and KIND day my friends. 

Celebrate A Mother's Love

Hey friends, it's time for SPRING to happen and a NEW KIT!

This ones for the mom's whose best was never good enough, and

those who have no family but cling to every ounce of heart they have. 

This new Creating Made Easy Kit has gorgeous Graphics 45 papers 

and amazing Clear Scraps goodness. Everyone always says they

can;t put pink on a boy project....COUGH I beg to differ!!

I love this album full of PINK with my two sweet boys

who are so kind hearted and loving. I am so blessed. 

It was all about celebrating so I decided I would celebrate my love 

and gratefulness for having them in my life. 

I am so blessed to have such sweet boys who love me and

make sure I know they love me and stand by me. 

I can only pray they grow up as sweet as they are now

and helpful to others without anger. 

My heart always hurts thinking of those I have lost and the
family who choose to let their anger lead them away from love.
Beyond my control, I have to focus on the love I have and let
the rest slip away. I have never been happy with the fact I have
no family and I was so abused, I did the best I could my whole
life but sometimes the nest will never be good enough.

Thank you all for supporting me...

Adore- Vintage Mixable Album

Hey there friends, it's quite an icy week in Tennessee.

People can laugh all they want but southerners are not equipped for ice!

I am fortunate to be able to work through the storm at home, 

including making a few pretties like this Mini Mixable Little Bits Album.

 I stamped straight onto the front acrylic page using StazOn of course,

(Sin City Stamps) then

went from there with some Anna Griffin papers.

 A bit of Krylon spray paint, and a smudge of Little B too, 

 In the end a fabby little album for a friend. 

What do you think?? <3 p="">

How To Make A Brick Wall Page

Morning friends, it's dreaded Monday, so why not

hide out at home and craft if you can?? Or come home after

work and craft! :) 

I have been trying to create this week and came up with this 

Clear Scraps Mixable Home Album with a "brick wall". 

For the fence I took the protective film off of the back and 

painted it with a brush, then I scratched it. 

After it dried I removed the film from the front and

 painted it with brick red, then I wiped most of it off leaving only a stain. 

After I painted the fence I took Deco Art Medium Texture Paste (Sand) 

and used the Clear Scraps Brick Mascil to create a brick wall, 

but trust me it looked nothing like a brick wall yet, 

I had to wait for it to dry then I added paint and Deco Art Media mists

including black mist.

I used the chipboard pages for this technique, not acrylic. 

On the heart I simply covered in patterned paper, 

then inked the edges in mixed media ink. 

For the back page I also used patterned paper 

I don't usually do that with my acrylic but you can do whatever 

you want! It's your beautiful album!!

At the end of the day I am happy with it all.
I used Echo Park Papers for the album too.
and the corrugated cardboard and butterflies are Little B.

Have a happy Monday friends.
