I know it's a little late but better late than never.&amp;nbsp;  I've been playing catch up ever since we came back from GA for Thanksgiving.

I plan to make a couple more for my girls, they kept asking if they could have one.&amp;nbsp; I will say they were time consuming to make, lots of stop and start and trimming of thread.&amp;nbsp; I found a great &lt;a href="http://youtu.be/EIz-whiBMww"&gt;youtube video&lt;/a&gt; that walked you through it, very beginner friendly.&amp;nbsp; Note: I didn't need to pin all the pieces together if you glue the felt in place you can hold the rest just fine. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Girls Christmas Presents...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wIyVqeLwmxE/Txc0j-cUZ2I/AAAAAAAABhU/BIfQk7Rqmk8/s1600/P1130418crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wIyVqeLwmxE/Txc0j-cUZ2I/AAAAAAAABhU/BIfQk7Rqmk8/s320/P1130418crop.jpg" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;...I picked up this desk a goodwill for $8.00.&amp;nbsp; I LOVE deals like this!!!!&lt;br /&gt;I also picked up another desk this time from craigslist for $15 (pic below).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gWOmMg2R-0M/Txc04miDIjI/AAAAAAAABhc/zSjGj0GUhs8/s1600/P1130416crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="239" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gWOmMg2R-0M/Txc04miDIjI/AAAAAAAABhc/zSjGj0GUhs8/s320/P1130416crop.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I started by sanding them and getting off any rust, then I gave them a good cleaning and let them dry.&amp;nbsp; I used a rust resistant spray paint primer.&amp;nbsp; After a couple of coats of that I sprayed them with a nice white top coat paint. &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RoWon-h8onU/Txc1HkeeoFI/AAAAAAAABhk/8EydsOqryBg/s1600/P1130469crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RoWon-h8onU/Txc1HkeeoFI/AAAAAAAABhk/8EydsOqryBg/s320/P1130469crop.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I used some left over pink and green paint for the seats and stenciled their names on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-E_I9435TGk4/Txc1XcF3IMI/AAAAAAAABhs/LL34f3naNI8/s1600/P1130470crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-E_I9435TGk4/Txc1XcF3IMI/AAAAAAAABhs/LL34f3naNI8/s320/P1130470crop.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YF-bkMqChx0/Txc1m5XjkMI/AAAAAAAABh0/xx42e2dv_xY/s1600/P1130471crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YF-bkMqChx0/Txc1m5XjkMI/AAAAAAAABh0/xx42e2dv_xY/s320/P1130471crop.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2mbZ1okA_FI/TxhdXxpNNkI/AAAAAAAABiM/jeW1LdWFso8/s1600/P1130568crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="259" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2mbZ1okA_FI/TxhdXxpNNkI/AAAAAAAABiM/jeW1LdWFso8/s320/P1130568crop.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;They were a big hit on Christmas morning!!

It will be nice to see my kids play around and goof off with their aunt an uncle.

We have a bulletin board upstairs for the small art projects and papers from school but we needed more space. I loved this idea of taking your saved wine corks and using them for bulletin strips instead of boards. I just bought a 12' strip of wood and some masonry screws from Home Depot.

So here are a few ideas I came up with.  I searched the internet for some spooky bottle labels and other  images that I could print off for free.  Then I searched my house and started looking at things in a different way.  I found some old books, a tarnished silver sugar cup, a box of emergency candles and some old bottles.  I did buy a few things to pull the look together spider webs and spiders, a bag of bones, a rubber snake, a skull, and some of that aged cheese cloth stuff.   It seems like alot but these items are very inexpensive.   I found all of these items in the Halloween section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Erwi6KEnXcE/ToSQv2Sa-TI/AAAAAAAABVc/tIUqPeUa6yY/s1600/P1120704c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Erwi6KEnXcE/ToSQv2Sa-TI/AAAAAAAABVc/tIUqPeUa6yY/s400/P1120704c.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657806183585216818" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This frame usually sits on my mantel with a family photo in it.  I just simply removed the photo and printed these items from the net and combined them with some patterned paper I already had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-m7pymtqNRIs/ToSQvhoe1bI/AAAAAAAABVU/3BcuuDWFrn4/s1600/P1120701c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-m7pymtqNRIs/ToSQvhoe1bI/AAAAAAAABVU/3BcuuDWFrn4/s400/P1120701c.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657806178040599986" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My husband had these old books lying around so I didn't dust them off and added some webs to them.

I think they turned out cute and my sister  really liked them the shower is today so we'll see what the  bride thought.   I glued strips of paper to the clothespins and then sanded the edges of the paper.  The sanding took a while but really makes such a difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bM666mlwiuU/TmuVVpTlgsI/AAAAAAAABSk/vmayVC-CtFg/s1600/P1120518.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bM666mlwiuU/TmuVVpTlgsI/AAAAAAAABSk/vmayVC-CtFg/s400/P1120518.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650774356564214466" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u8pCCUT7Xt4/TmuVVUrr5BI/AAAAAAAABSc/lGc9QF-JvNU/s1600/P1120528.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u8pCCUT7Xt4/TmuVVUrr5BI/AAAAAAAABSc/lGc9QF-JvNU/s400/P1120528.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650774351028151314" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mhx1Pa5aN1U/TmuVUwObcKI/AAAAAAAABSU/we2bAnkWrM4/s1600/P1120526.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mhx1Pa5aN1U/TmuVUwObcKI/AAAAAAAABSU/we2bAnkWrM4/s400/P1120526.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650774341241761954" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-1719060776298002594?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/1719060776298002594/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/09/altered-clothes-pins.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/1719060776298002594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/1719060776298002594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/09/altered-clothes-pins.html' title='Altered Clothes Pins'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bM666mlwiuU/TmuVVpTlgsI/AAAAAAAABSk/vmayVC-CtFg/s72-c/P1120518.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-8478930714860058786</id><published>2011-09-10T12:11:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-10T12:42:27.045-04:00</updated><title type='text'>My very own Smash Book</title><content type='html'>When I first heard of smash books I thought it would be a great way to display some of my own ephemera that I've been hoarding for years.

I also used the Numero tickets by 7 Gypsies.  Jillibean Soup   came out with these blossom twine flowers.   I used the  natural bean color.  I thought they really went well with the circular  sunbursts in this paper collection.   This layout was a little bit of a  departure from my norm.  I usually don't combine so many patterns together  but it was a lot of fun and I think it works.  Stitching has been my  favorite thing to do lately so its no surprise that this l/o is full of  it.  If you haven't tried stitching on your projects you should.  If you  know how to thread a machine you can do it.  If you are just starting  out ask someone you know to teach you the basics.  It's very fun I  promise and it adds so much!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-5884725094900111024?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/5884725094900111024/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/06/scrapbook-nook-dt-layout.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/5884725094900111024'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/5884725094900111024'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/06/scrapbook-nook-dt-layout.html' title='Scrapbook Nook DT Layout!!!'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4-5L1TzpCZc/Tgkl27ezoqI/AAAAAAAABIs/_MNN9kHIa28/s72-c/P111058612x12.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-994984272299006968</id><published>2011-06-27T15:49:00.009-04:00</published><updated>2011-06-28T15:15:03.099-04:00</updated><title type='text'>I guess I should update this blog!</title><content type='html'>Between field trips, dance recitals, gardening, and baseball it seems it's hard to find the time to be crafty.

It's not that I think that's old, the number doesn't really bother me.  It's how fast it's going by.  It seems like yesterday I was in high school.  It just blows my mind that our first born will be seven in a couple of months.  Sometimes as a SAHM the days seem so long but they're really going by sooo fast.  Our baby will be two on March 11th and our little Claire bear will be four on the 28th. It just makes me think about what's important.  I often struggle with balancing everything, spending time with the kids and John, cleaning, laundry, crafting and the list goes on.  But you know something, I don't remember if there were any dust bunnies in the corners or under the bed when I was growing up.  I do remember my Mom reading me bed time stories and spending time with me.  I'm  not saying that I'm going to let my house go to pot, but it's not my first priority.  So go cuddle, snuggle, tickle, kiss and show those little ones how much they mean to you...that's what they'll remember!!    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CfZnyNva5Ec/TV0nqGLbfAI/AAAAAAAABAM/Lt9hB1GAb6A/s1600/P1100275crop.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 253px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CfZnyNva5Ec/TV0nqGLbfAI/AAAAAAAABAM/Lt9hB1GAb6A/s400/P1100275crop.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574655517921082370" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LFf1eKqu2Cw/TV0np3QOosI/AAAAAAAABAE/j0FZts6qbYs/s1600/P1100297crop.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 222px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LFf1eKqu2Cw/TV0np3QOosI/AAAAAAAABAE/j0FZts6qbYs/s400/P1100297crop.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574655513914680002" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-2185504993617774977?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/2185504993617774977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/32.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/2185504993617774977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/2185504993617774977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/32.html' title='32'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CfZnyNva5Ec/TV0nqGLbfAI/AAAAAAAABAM/Lt9hB1GAb6A/s72-c/P1100275crop.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-897188485269015377</id><published>2011-02-09T14:05:00.007-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-09T14:18:18.351-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Super Simple -30 mintue Layout</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TVLmU85JGgI/AAAAAAAAA_c/3zBH3qRygGA/s1600/P1100261crop.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 304px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TVLmU85JGgI/AAAAAAAAA_c/3zBH3qRygGA/s400/P1100261crop.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571768936628296194" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TVLmUkrOTXI/AAAAAAAAA_U/VXEl-zk8rGU/s1600/P1100262crop.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 235px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TVLmUkrOTXI/AAAAAAAAA_U/VXEl-zk8rGU/s400/P1100262crop.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571768930127465842" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was surfing Scrapbook etc.com the other day and came across a cute little layout that used different patterned paper and stitched them together.  It was too cute so I gave it a try.  It was really simple and only took my about 30 minutes to complete.  I also challenged myself to only use current Stampin' Up products.  I love all products but I was going to SU meeting and wanted to bring a sample to share.  I really like the new fabrics they have come out with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-897188485269015377?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/897188485269015377/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/sew.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/897188485269015377'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/897188485269015377'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/sew.html' title='Super Simple -30 mintue Layout'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TVLmU85JGgI/AAAAAAAAA_c/3zBH3qRygGA/s72-c/P1100261crop.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-8625631276932577873</id><published>2011-02-01T09:29:00.008-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-01T09:50:12.340-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Just About 3 - Layout</title><content type='html'>I saw this layout design in the latest issue of Scrapbook etc. and just loved it.

It's a huge accomplishment for me to actually finish something at a crop.  It always takes me so long to get goin' let alone finish.  I think its a combination of talking, eating and socializing to much.  That's what makes a crop so fun, being surrounded by people who share our passion for paper crafting.  I love walking around to see all the different projects, styles and storage solutions.  This was a huge crop with about 165 ladies and 10 different vendors.  It was my third year and I look forward to going again next year.  A BIG Thanks to the FFA of Montague for puttin' on a great event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQE7zTKII/AAAAAAAAA-Y/gweH84wG90s/s1600/P1100212.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 306px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQE7zTKII/AAAAAAAAA-Y/gweH84wG90s/s400/P1100212.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568718616201996418" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQESrGZhI/AAAAAAAAA-Q/Z0DiIKxOMag/s1600/P1100215.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 212px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQESrGZhI/AAAAAAAAA-Q/Z0DiIKxOMag/s400/P1100215.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568718605161752082" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQEEIY5II/AAAAAAAAA-I/JXfFQ78jVMM/s1600/P1100214.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 220px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQEEIY5II/AAAAAAAAA-I/JXfFQ78jVMM/s400/P1100214.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568718601258067074" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Thanks for stopppin' by!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-4654714128426574997?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/4654714128426574997/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/not-just-girl-layout.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/4654714128426574997'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/4654714128426574997'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/02/not-just-girl-layout.html' title='Not Just a Girl - Layout'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgQE7zTKII/AAAAAAAAA-Y/gweH84wG90s/s72-c/P1100212.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-812290142221798648</id><published>2011-01-28T18:33:00.024-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-01T09:27:54.765-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Toot Toot!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgXlIWKHyI/AAAAAAAAA-g/FsWCUFNvufk/s1600/Picture%2B5.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 56px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TUgXlIWKHyI/AAAAAAAAA-g/FsWCUFNvufk/s400/Picture%2B5.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568726865906638626" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Local scrapbook store asked me to be a guest blogger, woohoo!

I'm so way behind in my scrapbooking, just to give you an idea this is Christmas 2007.  Yup, that's right 07'.  I don't really think about how far behind I am, that's stress I don't need, I just get 'em done when I can.   I probably wouldn't know what to do with myself if I ever got caught up.   So don't feel bad if you're way behind you're not the only one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-2604556528985835156?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/2604556528985835156/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/01/2-page-layout.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/2604556528985835156'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/2604556528985835156'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/01/2-page-layout.html' title='2 Page Layout'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TTb0DYsnPCI/AAAAAAAAA8w/qTn_s5a2vHw/s72-c/P11001428x4.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-2303408069557253393</id><published>2011-01-11T13:28:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-11T13:37:27.602-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Pin Cushion &amp; Button Storage</title><content type='html'>I made this cute pin cushion using Stampin' Up "Sweet Stiches" fabric.

I really like how it turned out.  I used lots of great products from Basic Grey (Figgy Pudding), Stampin' Up, Prima, Tim Holtz, K&amp;amp;Co., and Sizzix.  The mini album shape is from Michael's, I picked that up Christmas time 09'.   Figgy Pudding is an old line from BG but is one of my all time favorites.

I also went through my other paper stacks and have quite a big pile of beautiful paper that is just waiting for me to put kits together.  For those of you who don't know I put together mini album kits and sell them here on my blog &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(under the kits for sale tab at the top of my blog).&lt;/span&gt;  My whole reason for making kits, besides the fact that it's fun and I love it, is to recycle.  I love pattern paper and they often come in stacks that have 2 or 3 sheets of each pattern.  I know myself well enough that I won't use all of it.  So I've found that creating these kits is a fun way to make sure that the paper gets to someone who will use it.  My kits range in price depending on how big they are but are very affordable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So stay tuned for new upcoming kits!&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-9186489633614487243?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/9186489633614487243/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/01/new-kits-coming-soon.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/9186489633614487243'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/9186489633614487243'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2011/01/new-kits-coming-soon.html' title='New Kits Coming Soon!!!!!'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-3186164213982233554</id><published>2011-01-04T08:21:00.006-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-04T09:41:10.058-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy New Year - I'm Back</title><content type='html'>I know its been almost a month since my last post.

It has been really nice spending time with friends and family and enjoying the holidays.   Though I have to say  I've been itchin' to get craftin' again.  I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday season. Here are a couple of pics of my Christmas cards.

Eleven years later it has become a great family tradition. The kids really look forward to it.  In the beginning John and I would spend hours searching for the perfect tree. You know  "the one" that starts to glow and says AWWWWWWWW!!!  I'm happy to report that no ones eyes were frozen and we didn't forget the saw hahaha, with three kids in tote we're pretty quick about it these days.  I've learned that it doesn't have to be perfect.  Once you put the lights and ornaments on they always look great.  Part of our tradition is taking a family photo in front of the tree, which often becomes the picture on our Christmas card.   I have to say this is one of my favorite traditions that we've started.  Thanks so much for stoppin' by!!!!

It was the 1985 TV Movie with Natalie Gregory, Sammy Davis Jr., Carol Channing and many others.  The animated version is ok but this one was by far my favorite.  Till this day everytime I make PB&amp;amp;J sandwich I think about the song "Jam tomorrow jam yesterday but never ever jam today" lol.  If you've never seen this version you should try to find it, a must see.  I just love this collection.   I wanted to make something with this collection but I didn't have time to start another mini.  This HUGE tag was a very quick and easy idea.   This is the first HUGE tag that I've made.   I've been wanting to create one for a while.    I loved it and I know this won't be the last.   I saw Arlene's tag and it inspired me create my own, thanks Arlene.   It was so simple to make and I'd have to say it is one of my favorite projects that I've created.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;Images from the TV movie&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TMWLNKMXYVI/AAAAAAAAAzw/jyR4xhyKXaY/s1600/sd+jr+Alice+in+Wonderland"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;

This collection is from last year.  I kept this album really simple.  I challenge myself to use mostly paper and the elements from the collection.  I usually use my Big Shot &amp;amp; dies for every page lol, just love that machine.  I only used one die and that was on the cover.  So it is possible to use the paper collection and other papers and not use fancy die cut machines.  I left a lot of room for picture and journaling.  I would not suggest binding/assembling your paper bag albums like this.  I was at a crop when I started this album.  I don't know about you but I'm not always really focused when I'm at a crop.  I get to chattin' and either don't get anything done or come home with the what was I thinking project.  I wasn't thinking straight when I put the paper onto the bags lol.  Oh well I made do b/c I can't bare to waste the paper and start over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for stoppin' by.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-7518905467074349525?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/7518905467074349525/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2010/10/halloween-paper-bag-mini.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/7518905467074349525'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/7518905467074349525'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2010/10/halloween-paper-bag-mini.html' title='Halloween Paper Bag Mini'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TMWYJrQjTOI/AAAAAAAAA1I/X-WNkmWSwC8/s72-c/P1090210.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-5227801794826955567</id><published>2010-10-19T11:08:00.012-04:00</published><updated>2010-10-25T08:37:47.655-04:00</updated><title type='text'>WOW Seven Years!</title><content type='html'>Yesterday my husband John and I celebrated our seventh wedding anniversary.  We have been together for eleven years but the last seven have just flown by.  It might have something to do with the three children that we've had in that time.  I remember our wedding like it was yesterday, crazy how time flies.  I made him a little something and thought I'd share it with you.  It was my first time painting on a canvas.

The colors in this collection are beautiful, I just love it!!  The book is from SU.  I also used some Prima bling, Tim Holtz gears, tokens, swivel clasp, and time peices.  The pocket watch is from Tattered Angels.  I covered it with platium utee then I distressed it with a texture hammer.  Then added vintage photo and black soot distress ink to give it more of an aged look.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is going to be a place where I sketch layouts, write down my thoughts and other artistic creations.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please leave a comment and Thanks for stoppin' by!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4310374264322112534-7571381024457419593?l=alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/feeds/7571381024457419593/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2010/10/graphic-45-altered-book.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/7571381024457419593'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4310374264322112534/posts/default/7571381024457419593'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alifeworthscrappin.blogspot.com/2010/10/graphic-45-altered-book.html' title='Graphic 45 Altered Book'/><author><name>tk79</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04049255375730765956</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1L2bCcfWPlU/TdW9L_6ZXPI/AAAAAAAABG4/2g2G4SpiHEk/s220/P1110271crop.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TK-AntK9PLI/AAAAAAAAAxg/1uocqf5WBM4/s72-c/P10900404x6.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310374264322112534.post-7319358037752873189</id><published>2010-10-06T10:05:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2010-10-06T10:51:43.446-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Boo Banner</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyJHk-dBUI/AAAAAAAAAwo/Ib721y4tYQ4/s1600/P1090014.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyJHk-dBUI/AAAAAAAAAwo/Ib721y4tYQ4/s400/P1090014.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941606154470722" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIusu8SwI/AAAAAAAAAwg/Qas_f2iRdpA/s1600/P1090016.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIusu8SwI/AAAAAAAAAwg/Qas_f2iRdpA/s400/P1090016.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941178740165378" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIuQ7P2BI/AAAAAAAAAwY/ljaRATK-Wxk/s1600/P1090027.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIuQ7P2BI/AAAAAAAAAwY/ljaRATK-Wxk/s400/P1090027.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941171275585554" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIt7c0NpI/AAAAAAAAAwQ/N79Wltlq-h4/s1600/P1090028.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIt7c0NpI/AAAAAAAAAwQ/N79Wltlq-h4/s400/P1090028.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941165510801042" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyItHOUgPI/AAAAAAAAAwI/uK8NzdFzxl4/s1600/P1090021.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyItHOUgPI/AAAAAAAAAwI/uK8NzdFzxl4/s400/P1090021.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941151491358962" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIsjyD0LI/AAAAAAAAAwA/zVfcQEvYzgA/s1600/P1090015.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qP4UJdZ0tG4/TKyIsjyD0LI/AAAAAAAAAwA/zVfcQEvYzgA/s400/P1090015.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524941141977583794" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I used the xl pendent die from SU for this banner.  I pulled papers from a few different collections.  The small scallop circle comes in the pendent die and the large one is a huge punch that I have.  I also used the scallop edge punch from SU for the green strip at the top.  I made the dangley pieces at the bottom from bead/charms that I took apart and added the little skull beads to.  I bought them both at Michaels.  The letters are flocked and I picked them up at Big Lots last year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip: Always take a look at the remnant bin at Joanns or your local fabric store.  This is where I found the web like metallic fabric that I placed under the scallop circle.

I rearranged my blog so my kits and other items for sale are no longer on the side column.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To view all of my items I have for sale look at the top of my blog just under the header.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have different links that will take you to a separate page so you can view all of my kits at one time.  I hope to add more links soon, such as a gallery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also added a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Buy Now&lt;/span&gt; button which allows you to purchase any item right from my blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this makes it easier to place an order.

I really enjoyed it.  I used an inexpensive set of water color paints from JoAnn's and some of my glimmer mist.  It was really relaxing.  I put the kids to bed, went down stairs, put in one of my favorite movies (Pride and Prejudice) and painted.  Soooo Fun.

The kits are $5 and the whole purpose is to introduce people to new products. It was a great deal b/c the thickers and smooch are around $5 ea.  This was the first time I had used the smooch ink.  If you have ever used the smooch spritz you know how intense the color is and the same is true for the ink.
