Shall We Play???


Yes, we shall, and yes we did! This is a combination of new and old buys. I love to pull out drawers and just put collages together.


This has mostly new Tim Holtz pieces combined with his new Artful Dwellings Die. I LOVE this thing. It has sooooooooooo many possibilities.


I used lots of little things to embellish this piece. Couldn't even tell you where some are from. It's really got tons of pieces in it as does the class that's similar, but much larger, that I'm giving.
** Classes are up for Memory Bound Scrapbook Store. Check out the Newsletter and give them a call in Ankeny Iowa. http://bit.ly/f20zGz


Here's some of the newer things:


Then I HAD to mess with my new stamps from Tim-Papillon. Are these Butterflies and Moths gorgeous or what??? They are stamped on a yellow cardstock, embossed with Verdigris Antiquities, sprayed with Copper Perfect Pearls Mist, and stamped in various spots with Jet Black Archival Ink. IT SPARKLES!

I love contrast, and this baby has got it. Especially up against the new Graphic 45 paper Let's Dance from Curtain Call. Lovin' that paper collection.



This is a closer shot of the Moth. I am a sucker for Turquoise and Brown together.........you may have noticed.

Be well........be good to each other..........Create ART!
