Last Scrap Club

Last nite was the last of my Stampers Clubs. I had 2 going, one for cards and one for scrapbooking. Last nite was our scrapbooking club. These are the 6x6 layouts that we did. Normally we only do 2 pages, usually not a double layout like the camping one, but this time I wanted to do a double layout as well as a single (to finish of our book!).
The camping layout is using Happy Camper as well as tidy alpha (I forgot it was retired, but they didn't mind). We also used the jumbo wheel Nature Hike. We heat embossed the bear with Chocolate Chip Craft ink and clear embossing powder. It is a pretty simple project, somehow I managed to line up the wheel punch on both pages, I wheeled them separately but they still lined up! I sometimes impress myself.


The second layout I got fromhttp://cis-stylish-sketches.blogspot.com/ This is a great site for sketches! They were using it for a 12x12, but I adapted it and made it into a 6x6 page. We cut out the flower and put it through my Xyron machine then put Dazzling Diamonds on it then curled it under to give it some dimension. There are so many ideas out there that you don't think on your own, that is what is nice about blogs and idea sites like SCS, you can get simple yet beautiful ideas on how to use what you have on hand!


Next year for my club, I think that I will do a card, 3D item, and a 6x6 scrap page (for the gals from my scrap club this year!) I think that I will only have one club rather than 2 and try to do more classes and get people using what they have purchased!


Update on my baby Dixie (german shepard pup) She is still in hostpital, but I saw her today and she looks like a different dog from when I saw her last. She was bouncing around, chasing the vet's cat, where last time she barely got up, her eyes were sunken in, and she looked so sad. She has to stay in the hostpital one more nite (crossing my fingers), all of this from eating something wrong, I have no idea what it is even, nothing looks that disturbed in our yard, and we don't have poisons here because of the kids. Could have been a stick or something Luci (the cat) dragged home! Anyways, she is on the mend!

Have a great day!

Happy Scrappin

Carrie, I know that I said thank you last night for the cool pages that we did, but here it is again...THANK YOU! You always say that you get your ideas from web-sites or idea books, but you still need to take the time to find them, alter them, gather the materials, and let us girls invade your house!! You are amazing Carrie! Don't let anyone tell you anything different! I am glad to have gotten to know you over the past 2 years! I am always waiting to see what you do next! I can't wait till next year's club!
