You Go Steph !!

Hello everyone :) I created this page really quick last night. My cousin Steph is very athletic, I'm starting to see it runs in the family :) During our SHOP HOP event, I found some really cool Soccer Goodies, that went perfect with Steph's pic. Most of the phrases are stickers, and I just backed them up with card stock and added dimensionals. I then added Silver Stickles in dot format outlining some of the embellishments and picture. Added my own tag and Wala !! Oh, forgot the silver star brads. Thanks Stephie for the picture. Hope you like how your page came out. Thanks for stopping by... Till next time, HAPPY STAMPIN.... BEC ~

Has anyone seen this Cutie ??

Ryan will steal your heart just by his smile. Believe it or not I have had this wanted embellishment sign for 2 years now. I had purchased it at the Ontario Convention a few years ago. I had this pic of my nephew and remembered I have the perfect place to put it. I distressed some of the lines on the wood looking sign. Added some copper brads to each corner. I swirled up some thick twine and placed it down with Zip Dry. If you don't own a bottle of Zip Dry you need to go out and get it. It glues down and dries in seconds, perfect for anything. Along the twine I added some green half rhinestones. Didn't want to add too much embellishments to this page. I will be posting some pic's from our SHOP HOP event tomorrow, so swing on by.....

Thinking Elegance !!

I really wanted to take my time creating this page because I already had in mind to be creative in a more formal way..... So what do you think? I added the flourish image from the Priceless Stamp Set (S.U.) in Whisper White craft ink, then I outlined some of the swirls in diamond stickles. If you click on the image to view closer I added some half pearl accents from the Pretties accent collection set then some sticker rhinestones. The white flowers are also from the Pretties accent set and punched out some purple flowers from the 5 petel flower hand punch (S.U.) Try making your own Stickles Glitter paper. Oh sorry, and for those of you who are wondering who this is, it's my son Sonny and his girlfriend Melina at her Prom. Thanks for stopping by, HAPPY STAMPIN.... BEC ~

Sharing Evelyn's Creations

Hi everyone... Your probably wondering where I have been. I misplaced my cord to download my pics. You know us Bloggers can't be without that magical cord. Here are a couple of Scrapbook layouts that a friend Evelyn created. School days on the left is of her Grandson Ryan, "Don't let that little smile fool you". He drives his grandma a little crazy. And the little princess on the right is her Grandaughter. Evelyn is another friend who thought that she couldn't get into Scrapbooking, but look at her work, she does a great job. Thanks for sharing Evi..... HAPPY STAMPIN.... BEC ~

Covered Journal

Hello :) Wow, can you believe it, I covered a Journal. My first time ever. A friend Vanessa from Freckle Friends inspired me to try and create something like this. She does a wonderful job herself. My husband and I are giving this journal as a Thank You gift to a friend at his work that lent us a book to read. I titled the journal ( Memory Verses ), so she can jot down her favorite Bible Scriptures. I really enjoyed the colors I chose. It reminds me of an Old Antique Item. The Journal I found at Micheals in the Dollar Baskets. The 2 print papers I found at The Scrapbook Lounge in Montclair. I added some Dark Brown ribbon along with some Sheer Organza light brown ribbon which I tied a small bow. I made my own Tag Label, scalloped the edges and distressed with Colorbox Chalk in Chestnut Roan.I covered the title label with the same organza ribbon I used for the side of the journal. I added some mini circle antique copper brads. Before I was all done I added some Gold Stickles to some of the swirls on the pattern paper. On the inside cover I did place another small tag saying, " Plant a seed of Kindness, Gather a bouquet of Friendship". I'm sure some of you had seen this quote before. Why don't you try covering a journal yourself, send me a pic of your finish project so I can post on my Site :) HAPPY STAMPIN....BEC ~

Little Sports Fans !!

We have some little sports fans here :) I really enjoyed working on this page, for one because it was a really neat birthday party, every one had to come in Dodger clothing. And even little Jacobs (birthday boy) invite was like a Dodger game ticket. I used Whisper White and Brilliant Blue C.S. A few of the Picture c.s. backings are Grey. On the Little Fans lettering I used Crystal Effects and on the little red baseballs. The cute Dodger Jersey embellishment I found at Screamin Susies in Whittier. 2 more weeks left for Shop Hoppers. Looking forward to next weekend. I want to shout out a Best of Luck to my Scrappin Friend Pauline Sierra, who has informed me that she is on a mission to visit all Shop Hop stores. Were talking 33 scrapbook stores. (WOW !) Within 4 days she has already visited 14 stores. High 5 to you Pauline. Now that's what you call a true Scrapper :) HAPPY STAMPIN....BEC ~

Look Who Turned 3 .....

Hi everyone, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Look my little Pops Ryan ( Nephew) turned 3. Wow before you know it he's going to be in Kindergarten. I just love Ryan's smile. And he's also sooo... photogenic, I think all our children know that we take all these pics for a reason (Scrapbooking) because let me tell you between my boys and my brother Robert's boys, they sure are asked to smile a whole lot :) LOL !!! Here on this layout, I found this cool perfect birthday print from (The Scrapbook Lounge) in Montclair, along with the back ground print that has Celebrate all over it. I added some pic's that I had took of Ryan throughout this year, and used my Coluzzle Cutting System from S.U. to make them round, and just used my scallop scissors for the round picture trimming backing. If you click on the picture to view better I added Yellow Stickles along the edging of the round pics. The stamped images are from the (Eat Cake) Stamp Set from S.U. Sorry is now retired. On another note.... SHOP HOP started, so this Saturday that passed we went to 4 different scrapbook stores, FUN...FUN...FUN, I found some really cool scrapbook stuff and can hardly wait to start using it all up. My focus for this years SHOP HOP is anything to do with Wrestling, Baseball and Golf.....and maybe a few Halloween items..... I will be posting pictures soon of our fun field trips.... We are hoping to visit at least 13 stores.... Ok enough..... HAPPY SCRAPPIN.... BEC ~
