Some New Projects

I posted earlier that I was working on some projects. Here are two them. I will be posting some more later. This first one is a little binder key chain. It is a little gift that was given to me a longer time ago. It's a Creative Memories mini binder for pictures or stickers I can't remember which one. I covered the front and back of it with paper. I used Paper Modge Podge(yes, it comes just for paper and it's acid free). To cover the logo. I used Heidi Grace Stickers and a Foam Heart to decorate the cover.

Then I created mini pages for the inside. I use all the dimensional sticker and doodads on the out side of the mini page protectors because i like the way it looks and feels.

The Second project is a little purse i made using Fiskars Circle Shape Express Template and Cutter. I made a little one. You could put a small gift in it or some candy. I want to make a bigger one next.

I have some exciting news to share. No not about me but, my daughter. She was selected to be on the school newspaper. This is the first year the school will be doing a newspaper. I can't believe that my little girl will be published by the end of the month. How cool is that!?!

She is also receiving an award for being top in the state in the FCAT(this will be the second one she'll receive). State test done here in FL. It's a big deal here.

I am very proud of her!

Now, My son. Who is turning 7 this month. Has told me that a girl in his class likes him and wants to kiss him. WHAT!!!! Already!! I am not ready for this at all.

I am working on a few projects I hope to post them later.

My Scrapbook Challenges Design Team Layout

Pamela posted the Design Team layouts on the site http://groups.myspace.com/Scrapbookchallenges. I was asked to created a layout based on her sketch.
Here is my version. The title is made with cloud 9 alpha sticker with dimensional paint on them. I also used the paint directly to the photo.
close up of flowers. They have dimensional fabric paint (Light Blue Iridescent)on them. The small one is a paper punched flower cover with the paint. The large one is a Heidi Swapp Ghost flower cover with paint topped with another paper flower with some stickles on it. The scroll work is white Iridescent dimensional fabric paint with some Eucalyptus stickles over it. the dots are green Rain Dots (cloud 9).
closed up of ruffled ribbon. Yes more rain dots blue

Thanks for looking.
