I thought I'd share another Scrapbook in a Purse with you. This one is smaller than I posted before and it's not quite as fancy but it's very pretty in its simplicity! Don't forget today is the last chance to purchase items on Sale for the 12 Days of Christmas sale. The items you see listed below are up to 25% off. If you would like to purchase any of these items at these great prices please place an order through my Shop Stampin' Up! button or call before 6:00 this evening so I have time to process the order before time runs out.

2-Page Scrapbook Layouts for the Scrapbooking Club
I wish you could see this scrapbook page in real life, I love how it looks! Somehow small pictures don't always do the pages justice! I saw a one-page layout someone did similar to the left-hand page so I decided to take that general layout idea and change the colors and papers to fit the pictures I had. Once I had that page done, I added the right-hand layout because I always like to have 2-page layouts. This particular layout is from our 2nd visit to Ocean City, MD. As you can see in the pictures, we were not dressed to swim, it was cold! I've done a lot of pages for our Ocean City Continue reading
Friends 24-7 Scrapbook Pages
I had a little time to create with my upline's Friends 24-7 stamp set while I was there the other week. I had a lot of fun coming up with this set of pages. They're so elegant! now if only I could find some nice pictures to put on them! Those messy faced boy pictures just won't work on this layout! Here are some closeup pictures. Here's the left page. See the lovely edge punched in the Very Vanilla cardstock? That was done with the new Scallop Trim Border punch that's going to be available for FREE during Sale-A-Bration. It's great! I used Elementary Originals Ribbon and the Kraft Continue reading
Scrapbook in a Purse
I wanted to share something I made a while back. This is a purse that opens up to be a scrapbook! Here's a view of the back of the purse. When you open the velcro latch on the front of the purse flap it opens up like this. This view shows a couple places to put pictures. As you can see in this picture, two of the picture places actually flip open to reveal more pictures! To do this I used Stampin' Up! clear, translucent envelopes to make the flaps. Surprise! There is a secret pocket with this pull out page for yet another picture! And one more hidden page! Don't you just love this Continue reading
Visiting the Bay and Christmas Scrapbook Pages
Here are some scrapbook pages I put together this morning. These pictures are from when we vacationed at Bethany Beach. The home we rented was within walking distance of the Bay so we walked there one day. The colors I used here are Bordering Blue, Brocade Blue and Basic Black. I used a stamp from the Yummy stamp set which was available as a free Sale-A-Bration stamp set last year. The Scrap Club is going to be doing a layout very much like this one. Like I said yesterday, I don't have any Christmas pictures to scrapbook right now (I'm all caught up! Wow!). So, I made the water Continue reading
Christmas Ornament Scrapbook Page
Here is another layout we'll be doing for Scrap Club this month. This is a fun design using a bunch of chipboard to make the ornaments and some felt snowflakes too. (There will be a little variation in the DSP we use in club due to what I have on hand.) If those in the club have more pictures they want to show it will be easy to add more across the top of the two pages. I did not have many pictures to work with so that is why mine is a bit on the bare side. These pictures are from my son's preschool Christmas program last year. The lighting was terrible for pictures and there were so Continue reading
Christmas Scrap Book Pages for Scrap Club
I want to take a minute to thank all of our veterans and current members of the armed forces! Both of my grandfathers, my uncles, and my dad have served in the past and my brother is just about ready to retire. They have given so much for our country and I am so thankful for all of them! It's almost time for Scrap Club! I'm very excited to build these pages with the club members! I've done these pages in the past with other classes and everyone always likes it! I just couldn't pass up doing them again this Christmas! You can't go wrong with snowflakes! The only change will be using Continue reading
Children's Two-Page Scrapbook Layout
Have I ever mentioned that my children love to dress up? Hats are one of their favorites. On this particular day the boys were all wearing hats and running around being really silly with lots of laughter. This is the third scrapbook layout for Scrap Club next Monday. Are you part of Scrap Club? Would you like to try it out without the obligation of the 6 month commitment? Why not join us this Monday, October 19, and see if you enjoy it? If you are interested, the cost is $15.00 for 3 two-page layouts. I need to know by Saturday, October 17 if you would like to attend. The colors used Continue reading
At The Park Scrapbook Page
Here is the second Scrap Club layout for next week. I used the Decorative Accents and Daisies #2 Sizzix dies which are available through Stampin' Up! as well as the Go Go Boots Sizzlit dies. These pictures were actually taken in the spring but I promised fall colors so . . . . I think it'll be okay though. The flowers could pass for fall mums or spring flowers really. To be quite truthful, I don't think my boys are going to mind either way! The colors used on this page are Summer Sun, Close to Cocoa, Kiwi Kiss and Pumpkin Pie. The colors look great but they sure would make an Continue reading
Brown's Ochard Field Trip Scrapbook Layout
Here is the first fall scrapbook layout for the Scrap Club this month. The pictures are from my son's kindergarten field trip to Brown's Orchard a couple weeks ago.We'll be using some retired DSP and the On Board So Tweet to create this page. As usual, I haven't added my journaling yet but I'll try to do so before club meeting. If you would like, it would be very easy to put an 8x10 picture in place of the four 4"x5" pictures I have on the left-hand page. I wanted to use several pictures but one large one would look just as nice if not better I think. Thank you for taking the time to Continue reading
A Clearance, A Sale & My Digital Studio
There are so many special things I need to tell you about right now, I hope you will bear with me and read through everything! There are some great specials going on right now! My Digital Studio is available as of today! I made this scrapbook page using the My Digital Studio and it was easy! One of the features I like the most is being able to put my pictures on the page in any size, I didn't have to pre-think what I wanted to do and guess what size to print the pictures. Are you wondering what My Digital Studio is? This is a computer program on which you can design scrapbook pages, Continue reading
It's FUN to WORK
I wanted to create this scrapbook page to express just how much I enjoy what I do. Under my title I have listed some of the areas I enjoy about my job: creating, teaching, meeting new people, making some extra spending money and so on. I was first introduced to stamping when I lived in Fallston, MD. The ladies there got me started when someone couldn't make it to a Stamp Camp she'd paid for. I resisted getting into stamping for a while (using the cost as my reasoning) but finally gave in, all the way, right to being a demonstrator! Continue reading
