Becca's Birthday

Holy smokes. It has been a long time since I have posted anything. I thought that once spring was over life would slow down. Yeah, not likely. I have been busier than ever. I don't know where the time goes, but it is definitely moving by fast. LOL

Ok, I will get on with it. One of my last posts was of the invitation I made for my niece Becca's birthday party. I came up with the idea for the project that Becca and her friends would do at the party and Laurie (my little sis) designed the project. She did a fabulous job. The girls loved it and they went home with a wonderful keep sake. Darren (my bro-in-law) even took pictures of the girls with and printed them for us, so, all of the projects were complete with pictures. Whoot!!! Whoot!!!

Here is a close up of one of the girls projects. I think they all did a great job. Laurie had the chipboard covered and all the pieces cut for the projects. We let the girls put the entire thing together and do some of the stamping. We helped a little but let them be as creative as they wanted. The thing hanging off if it was a last minute creation. The girls were getting antsy waiting for everyone to arrive so I quickly put together the necklace. They each made one with their first initial on it. We let them do the stamping for this one.

This is a picture of all the projects. Whew!!! It was a busy afternoon. Yep, you counted right. There was 9 girls including the birthday girl. I could have used two of me that day. LOL

I have to mention that they were all 6 year olds. Things got a litte hairy but it all work out awesome in the end.

Hope you all enjoy. I will try and post some of the things I have been working on for the WDM craft show in the next couple days.

Love'n the Zutter

Hey all, well it has been a while since I have update this thingy. I have been busy, busy, busy with work, preparing for Becca's birthday and of course Scrap - a - Palooza. Ummmmm did you notice that there has been no time for scrapbook'n. :( Time seems to fly by.

Ok, soooooo the title of this post is Love'n the Zutter. I have recently added a new tool to my scraproom. It is the Zutter or Bind It All. It is the most amazing little tool. You can bind almost anything. There are a ton of different chipboard covers, canvas cover, pages, O wires and cover alls.

I used a Little Ones 8x8 Deja Views Tablet ( love these tablets - the have all the paper and embelishments you need to complete a project - there is no hunting and searching for the perfect emblishment) and a Zutter Cover all and of course an O wire.

Ok here is the project hope you like it.
