Hey everybody!  I'm so excited to share another Finally Friday video with you that I created for Two Peas In A Bucket.

For this card I created a Halloween themed card using the new Witch Hazel collection by October Afternoon.  LOVE this collection - the combination of colors is just fantastic!  I created a little “peek a boo” window on the front of my card for a fun twist and added visual interest.

Here's a detail image of the card I created ...

And here's the video ...


I really hope you enjoy the card and video!  I appreciate all of your feedback both here and on YouTube.  :)

S'MORES

Hey all!  So I did not get a chance to post my second Garden layout from Two Peas In A Bucket yesterday.  Sorry about that!  I had the best of intentions but time just got away from me.  Seems like the story of my life lately.  sigh.

This layout is copyright Two Peas in a Bucket

My youngest son Brandon had so much fun making (and eating!) S'mores that we made at an end of season barbeque a few months ago and I just had to capture the memory on a layout. I used a combination of older and newer products from one of my favorite manufacturers October Afternoon. I love the plaid patterned paper from the Campfire collection and based my color scheme for this layout on the colors found in this great plaid.

I love these big woodgrain patterned alphabet stickers from October Afternoon.  They were perfect for my big, bold title.

This label sticker is from the Sidewalks collection from October Afternoon.  I love it.  Really, really love it.  It's the perfect size for a bit of journaling and has a fun shape and splashes of color.

Rocket Age ABC Wall Art

Hi everyone!  Today I have my very last project as Guest Designer on the October Afternoon blog to share with you and this one just might be my favorite. 

I often look to home decor websites for inspiration when creating.  Two of my favorite websites to visit are Pottery Barn Kids and The Land Of Nod - both provide lots and lots of eye candy!  LOL  My project today was inspired by a piece of children's wall art I found on The Land Of Nod.  I loved it and thought "I can do that!" and why not do it with a Rocket Age theme to boot!  Here's a little peek for you ...

You'll have to head on over to the October Afternoon blog to see the whole project and the inspiration piece.  And while you're there leave a comment - I'd love to hear from you!

Also it looks like the Rocket Age collection is finally in stock at Two Peas In A Bucket.  If you have little boys - or just want to work with a super fun collection - you NEED to head on over there and pick up some before it's all gone!  Thanks for stopping by!  :)

Squirrel Drama ... and a new October Afternoon project!

Hi everyone!  I had every intention of posting this first thing this morning but things got a wee bit hectic (if you're my friend on Facebook you know all about my squirrels in the attic drama! LOL) and then I headed out to the Scrapbook Expo in Somerset with my mom.  It was an "okay" show - kinda small and not a ton of new product.  But I did get my hands on quite a few of the Ali Edwards Technique Tuesday stamp sets that I've had my eye on so all in all I was a happy girl.

I have another layout up on the October Afternoon blog today as the May Guest Designer.  This layout features my oldest Darian and his brand new smile.  Here's a little peek for you ...

You'll have to head on over to the October Afternoon blog to see the whole layout and while you're there leave a comment - I'd love to hear from you!  Til then wish me luck catching those darn squirrels!  Thanks for stopping by!  :)

October Afternoon May Guest Designer!

So about a month ago I received a fabulous email inviting me to be the May guest designer for October Afternoon ... and then I squealed like the girl I am!  LOL  Anyone who knows me knows that I am a HUGE October Afternoon fan.  And the fact that I got to play with the "Rocket Age" collection (probably one of my favorite new releases from this past CHA) it was just icing on the proverbially cupcake.

So here's a little peek at the first project I created this month ...

To see the rest of my layout you'll have to head over to the October Afternoon blog.  And while you're there leave a comment - I'd love to hear from you!  Thanks so much for stopping by!  :)

More Want2Scrap Projects to share ...

Hey everyone!  I have a few more projects to share that I created as guest designer for Want2Scrap this month.  Want2Scrap specializes in the manufacturing of their own line of bling, acrylic and chipboard albums, as well as laser designs and ribbon. 

I LOVE to create cards and I decided to create a couple of cards using the sweet and feminine Thrift Shop collection by October Afternoon. I used lots of Want2Scrap Rhinestones in both black and clear on my cards. I love that each package contains rhinestones in 3 different sizes so that you are always sure to have the perfect size to embellish your die cuts, stickers, or what have you. I thought the rhinestones were the perfect addition to my cards and gave them the extra bit of detail they needed.

If you want to see more projects created by the talented Want2Scrap design team stop by the Want2Scrap blog for some daily inspiration.  Thanks for stopping by! :)
