A shopping we will go!

Heather and I are on our way to Scrapbook Expo 2009. I hope this will encourage both of us to do more scrapbooking and post our work. We both have big stashes and big ideas. I have joined a Christmas card swap and they are to be homemade so that is one of the things I will be focusing on this fall. I would also like to make mini albums for a few of my friends to give as Christmas gifts. Lets hope I can get everything done.

Convention

Scrapbook convention is this week. Me and Becca cannot decide if we should go or not. Neither one of us really NEED anything, but there are some things that we WANT.
Right now, the question is ...
To convention or not to convention??

Bo Bunny Album

I have been working on a new summer album kit.
I will post some photos when I am done. It is really cute so far!
Now I need to take some photos to put in the album when I am done!!

Becca's Creations!

Becca has been working very hard at her paper projects.
She had a scrap box. When you open it there are different tiles that you can scrap on - either put photos or journal. She gave this to me for my birthday. I have not decided what to do with it yet.






















She also made some paper boxes. I used them as part of a display for a jewelry party. They were the perfect size and would be a very pretty way to give a gift of jewelry!

Note Cards

I made several of these note cards to give as a gift for my friend Barb. I used pictures from an old sewing book and added them to colored card stock. Then I added some ribbon to the side. They were very simple to make and turned out cute. I know she will like them.

So Many Projects, So Little Time

I have started several projects, but have not had time to finish them. I have 2 mini albums that the paper is on but I need to add the photos and embellishments. I have the photos picked out and most of the embellishments. It is just a matter of having time to put them together. Plus I bought some new things at the scrapbook convention that I need to start.
Maybe since the weather is changing, I will be inside more and have more time to scrapbook. I have LOTS of ideas and even more supplies. Now I just need the time.

Becca Went Crazy!

Yesterday me & Becca went to the Scrapbook Convention. And Becca actually drove. It only took an extra few minutes to get there. It was not a bad drive.
Becca told me that she was only going for me and would probably only buy a few things. Then ... we get there!! And Becca went CRAZY!! She spent almost all of her money within the first 20 minutes!! I had to hold her back a few times!
But in the end, it was a nice shopping (and eating) day.
We will take some pictures of our new projects when we complete them.
