Gotta Love that Graphic45

I LOVE this paper!! It was so easy to make a masculine layout. A little G45, a little Prima, a little Tim Holtz and voila! I have no idea why there are white areas showing in the pearls unless it's a glare on the glue holding them together. This can't be seen in my picture or in the layout itself....strange.

I really wish I took better pictures. This layout is absolutely gorgeous, and the picture just doesn't reflect that.

Valentine Mini

For Valentine's Day I made this little mini for a friend. The idea came from Arlene at My Butterfly Kisses. You can see Arlene's video here.

What I'm Working On...

A little mini that I've been mulling over for some time is beginning to take shape. I hope it turns out as pretty in real life as it looks in my head!

Prima! Prima! Prima! What a dry spell we had on Prima in my little corner of the world. There wasn't a Prima to be seen on a shelf anywhere for months! And now, they're back, better than ever. Oh, Prima, how I love thee...







I also picked up a few ribbons and fibers at my local scrapbook store. I just grabbed what I wanted, ordered a yard of each, and when I was ready to check out she presented me with this beautiful little bag...





Look at the glimmer in that fiber. Man, I love this hobby.

January 12th???? Where has the time gone to? I thought I was all set to start blogging again...something must have gotten in the way of my desire to blather like an idiot where everyone in the universe can see it. Imagine that. Oh, I know...Facebook! HA! It's a devious thing, that Facebook. It sucks you in until you have no choice but to log in every day and read every status report that was ever written. Things like "red", "white", "black"....c'mon girls....once is enough. New variances on an old game are just old. It was interesting the first time, not so much now.

Most of my "friends" fall into two categories....either "scrappers" or "family". Everyone else is well, everyone else. Except for best friends from high school that I've categorized as "family", because she will always be family to me. Unfortunately, these categories still fall under the general theme of "friends", so you can't decide who sees your status and who doesn't without a putting in a LOT of work. So it's amazing to see how different generations deal with Facebook. The things kids will say nowadays without any care as to who sees it. Wow.

As for me, I'll stick to the scrap stuff. This is a little book I made for my sister. I loved putting it together, and she loves having it. She's kind of nice that way.
