Birthday Card for Treasure Box Designs

Hey All!!!  I had time today to create a card using the Party Animals file from Treasure Box Designs.  This is the first of a few creations using this file.  I am hoping to have the rest done for out up coming blog hop.  :)

As you can see this file has tons of goodies in it...I love the hippo.  :)


Here is the card I created using this file.  I used the Fancy Pants - It's Your Day paper again.  I love the colors in it and I have a ton of it left.

Bo Bunny and Treasure Box Designs

Hey All....well to say things have been busy around here is a serious understatement!!!  But I did get a chance to play with a new file from Treasure Box Designs.  :)  Dina has a bunch of new designs called Treasure Tots.  They are soo adorable!!!  And to make things even better she has a digi stamp that goes with each file.  :)  I totally couldn't resist the urge to haul out my copics dust them off and get some coloring in.  :)

The file I use is Treasure Tot Julie.  She is absolutely adorable...




Here is the card I created with the digi stamp.  :)  I used an older Bo Bunny paper pack called Vicky B.  Love the colors in one. 






Considering I haven't used my copics in quiet some time I think she turned out not too bad.  :)

The copic colors I use are as follows:

Hair:   YR31          Clothes:  RV13           Flower:  YR04          Leaf:  YG03          Shoes:  E49
          YR23                         RV15                        YR07                    YG05                      E25
          YR24

I am still trying to move forward on my new organizational system.  It is coming slowly but surely.  :)  No pictures yet but I promise I will try to get to that soon... :)

I did have the opportunity to take my Scrap Rack Travel Pack to a crop last weekend and it worked wonderfully!!!  It was super easy to pack and unpack!!  I can hardly wait till I get everything into my Scrap Rack.  I am hoping it will done soon.

For those of you who are in the Saskatoon area our annual crop Scrap-A-Palooza is next weekend.  :)  If we are super excited for this one.  :)  It our 5th Anniversary and we have a few extra fun things in store for the participants.  :)

I am working on a few new piecings I am hoping to get them done this evening.  Fingers crossed.  LOL

Bo Bunny Blast Off

Hey everyone...well an entire week has passed and the organizatioinal process is slowly but surely coming along.  I am about 1/4 to 1/2 way done with my embellishments and I am hoping to finish by next Tuesday.  Wish me luck...LOL  It is a crazy busy week over here but I think I can pull it off......  I am posting from work again (Shhhhhhh!!!!) so I don't have any pictures to share but I will take some this evening and post them either tonight or tomorrow.  :)

Sooo in between organizing, riding, house hold stuff, work and life in general I have managed to create another layout for Treasure Box Designs....  Yeah me!!!  LOL

This time I used the Out Of This World file.  It is super cute.  I especially love the little alien guys.  ;)



Here is the layout I created using the TBD file and Bo Bunny's Blast Off paper collection.  It is an oldy but a goody.  :)



I apologize for the picture quality....the lighting in my house is terrible.  For some reason everything turns a shade of orange....not sure what is going on.  I would take it outside a photo it there but that is kind of hard with 4 foot snow banks on the deck....hahahahahha....

Have a great evening!!!

Little Yellow Bicycle and Treasure Box Designs

Hey All!!!

WOW!!!  3 Posts in one week!!!  I am on a roll.  hahahah....  I have been working on the You Make Me Warm All Over file from Treasure Box Designs for a while now.   Trying to piece everything together in between paper sorting.  :)   Here is what all comes with the download.




I couldn't resist these cute little firemen!!!  Perfect for any little boy.  :)  I finally got it all together and this is what I came up with.  :)  If you are interested I will have this layout for sale in my Etsy Store.  :)



The patterned papers are from the Little Yellow Bicycle line - Saturdays.  This is the last of the paper I have otherwise I would have made a 2 page layout.   I thought it turned out cute as a 1 page layout.  :)

I am almost done with the paper sorting and organization.  Once I have the mess cleaned up I will post more pictures of the end result.

Have a great weekend!!!

Paper Organization!!!

Hey All!!!  Ok as promised here is an update on my reorganization of my scraproom into the 4 Section System and my ScrapRack.....OMG this is going to be quiet the process...but so far so good!!!  I am taking things slow.  Basically one section of my room at a time.  Baby steps.  LOL

When I started I dedicated an entire Saturday to setting up my folders and sorting the majority of the paper in my Jet Max cubes and all of my cardstock.  That was a large task but I got through it.  :)  Completely unscathed.  Hahahah

Here is the video I took of my room about a month  ago and it shows you the before of my room....



Here is the beginning of the sort....I started with my cardstock.



This is what I ended up purging!!!  OMG!!!  it is 2.5 feet of paper ummmm WOW!!!  and YEAH ME!!!!  I am going to try and sell what I can the rest will go to our local elementary school.  I am sure they will enjoy it.....



Next I moved onto the paper in my Jet Max cubes and this was a little more time consuming...I had my Scrap Rack all ready for any embellies that I came across.....



ScrapRack ready and waiting!!!  :)
 

 
Organized Only Space....the paper in the bottom of the cubes is what I am organizing....there is more on the other side of the room....
 


Above is the picture of the paper on the other side of the room.... blow are my sorting templates and the start of my sort......
 
 





 
I have gotten through all of my paper in my Jet Max Cubes and my clip it ups...next I am moving onto this room....Ohhhhh My!!!!
 



I just have to remember one shelf and one container at a time....this time through this space I will be only doing paper...next time will be embellies....

I should mention that I am hoping to purge at leat 8" of patterend paper.  I am thinking I am getting close already I may have even passed the 8" and I am only 1/2 way through!!!  I feel lighter.  :)

I will post pictures after I am done with the patterend paper....Cheers for now!!!

Love Is In The Air

Hey All!!!  I have a layout and a card to share with you this fine morning.  LOL  I am rather chipper this Monday morning in spite of the frigid temperatures here in Central Saskatchewan.  It is -30.....-42 with the windchill...that is insanely cold!!!  It is on days like these I am glad I have an inside job.  :)

Ok onto warmer things...hahahah.

This week I used the Love Is In The Air file from Treasure Box Designs.  Here is a picture of what you get with the file.  As you can see you will receive tons of piecings with your purchase.  :)



Here is a layout I completed.  This is a super cute and super fun file to put together.  :)




The papers I used are from Making Memories...I can't remember the line but it is from at least 3 years ago.  :)  

Here is a card I made using the another one of the piecings from the same file.  :)




I will have pictures and an update on the reorganization of my scraproom this week also.....I am almost done with the paper about 1/2 way there.....  :)

Fancy Pants and TBD Layout!

Hey all!!  Well it has been a super busy week.....I had my the start of my Stamp'n Up group this week.  We have a bunch of new ladies this year.....We have a great group.  :)

My Scrap Rack has arrived but I had some design team commitments to take care of before I could get started with that.  I am anxious to get started sorting and organizing but part of me is wondering if I shouldn't wait for the webinars to start before I get too carried away??   I probably won't be able to wait that long...LOL so I will more than likely get started this weekend.

So I have been busy creating another layout for Treasure Box Designs.  :)  Before I share, I have to say that the girls over at TBD are amazing!!!  They all made us feel very welcome right from the get go.  :)  Ok so here is the layout.  :)








The papers I used this time are from an old line of Fancy Pants papers called Happy Day and the SVG file from Treasure Box Designs is called - U Color My World.  I love these cute little bears!!  I had to work on the eyes and I am still trying to perfect my technique.  Once I am more comfortable with detailing the eyes I will do a video.  :)

I also used my Kiwi Lane Designs - Designer Templates.  No surprise there LOL...considering I never leave home without them.  Hahahahahah  Ok the templates I used this time are Madison Avenue, Abby Road,
Scallops, Accents, Mini Aspen Court, strips and of course the Photo Sets.  

I am going to start taking pictures this evening of the before and after of my Scrap Rack adventures... :)  I just reorganized my room so it really isn't that bad but I am hoping you will be able to see some noticeable changes over the next 8 weeks or so..
