I have been busy sewing for a little facebook business I originally set up with me Daughter back in 2014, called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LandSlittlegirlsthings">LITTLE GIRLS THINGS</a> Having three Granddaughters now my passion for sewing is renewed but of course that mean other passions have taken a backseat. All except Project Life, I haven't got the time to paper scrap like I use to so I think this year will be all digital. <br />
<br />
So here we go - 2017 Week 1...<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I usually find male cards hard to do but this one came together quickly. I used the Minc for the word celebrate... so in love with the gold foil 😍<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-iOe5G7uFGxg/VsGwRkL9PUI/AAAAAAAAC10/Jr7uu1G5e_U/s640/blogger-image-1818176790.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-iOe5G7uFGxg/VsGwRkL9PUI/AAAAAAAAC10/Jr7uu1G5e_U/s640/blogger-image-1818176790.jpg" /></a></div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm still trying to figure out the right settings on the Minc to get a perfect foil each time, my results are a bit hit and miss but I'll get there. </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This was a really easy card to do, it was all designed with the Silhouette Program. The word Celebrate was printed with a laser printer, foiled with the Minc, then the card put through an ink jet printer to add the coloured balloons. I added a sentiment inside to finish the card off.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So much fun 😊. Happy crafting till next week!</div>

<br />
I was a little stuck for ideas on what to make Hubby, instead of just one card I thought I could give him several this year...hehehe! I happened to be shopping in the Silhouette Online Store when I saw several cut files and wordart files that I liked... so I bought them all!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=53407" target="_blank">Heart Flourish Gatefold Card</a> - this one is just a straight cut file approx 3.75in or 9.5cm square which is a super cute size.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-auBzvx30kzI/UyKEmqBv2rI/AAAAAAAACvI/_-_RUqxCJ40/s1600/IMG_3409.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-auBzvx30kzI/UyKEmqBv2rI/AAAAAAAACvI/_-_RUqxCJ40/s1600/IMG_3409.JPG" height="316" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To dress up the inside I used the print and cut feature on the Silhouette by printing the wordart <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=37549" target="_blank">Love You</a> onto a piece of Carta Bella's Beautiful Moments 6x6 paper. This paper was cut just slightly smaller then the back of the note card. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lIIOQaKn604/UyKEsBPc7EI/AAAAAAAACvQ/k3qvtBSZo_Q/s1600/IMG_3410.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lIIOQaKn604/UyKEsBPc7EI/AAAAAAAACvQ/k3qvtBSZo_Q/s1600/IMG_3410.JPG" height="218" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Same process with this card, only this time the cut file was - <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=43317" target="_blank">Baroque Heart Gatefold Card</a> (#43317)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-n6vhbAbnpFM/UyKFMihhONI/AAAAAAAACvw/SUbbZju4T5M/s1600/IMG_3413.JPG" height="316" width="320" /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=37548" target="_blank">Love Us swirl</a> (#37548) is by Loni Stevens</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pY2J8hIzi1I/UyKFKsHprRI/AAAAAAAACvo/yEjHYuDctm4/s1600/IMG_3414.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pY2J8hIzi1I/UyKFKsHprRI/AAAAAAAACvo/yEjHYuDctm4/s1600/IMG_3414.JPG" height="218" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I wanted to do something with this wordart <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=55082" target="_blank">Valentines Subway Art</a> (#55082), but seriously I was not going to cut and stick each word onto a card! Print and Cut feature I love you!!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-buUa1_5KOAc/UyKE0eM0pII/AAAAAAAACvY/SWJhS7Ktlu0/s1600/IMG_3411.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-buUa1_5KOAc/UyKE0eM0pII/AAAAAAAACvY/SWJhS7Ktlu0/s1600/IMG_3411.JPG" height="316" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The inside got the same treatment but just a print no cutting...lol! <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=38429" target="_blank">Valentine Subway Art</a> (#38429) when sized to fit made a 4.25x5.75in or 10.5x15cm card... which is a good size to post here in Australia :)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QNzrSUGk9bE/UyKFC0pPP6I/AAAAAAAACvg/RCQDjZVqwLM/s1600/IMG_3412.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QNzrSUGk9bE/UyKFC0pPP6I/AAAAAAAACvg/RCQDjZVqwLM/s1600/IMG_3412.JPG" height="316" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The final card I made was a 5x7in or 13x18cm the <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=55200" target="_blank">Be My Valentine Title</a> (#55200) was a Print and Cut job that I found very fiddly and the colours were not quite what I was expecting but I made the best of it. The <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=55083" target="_blank">Hearts</a> (#55083) below the title are the negative of the cut file, all placed on a bit of foam to make them pop off the page. With of course a bit of Distress Ink - Spun Sugar around the edge.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HcsiiiKqgQU/UyKGkqqNZ5I/AAAAAAAACwY/8t_2xskKfX0/s1600/IMG_3415.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HcsiiiKqgQU/UyKGkqqNZ5I/AAAAAAAACwY/8t_2xskKfX0/s1600/IMG_3415.JPG" height="320" width="251" /></a></div>
<br />
For the inside of this card, I was not inclined to cut the <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=55199" target="_blank">Love You Forever Title</a> (#55199) so instead used the print and cut feature again! Did I mention that I love this feature on the Silhouette...hahaha! Because we are super sappy when it comes to Valentine's Day I included a photo collage of the two of us!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KWNJDs7Dugw/UyKGP46OsGI/AAAAAAAACwQ/1O9HY5Ar7JA/s1600/IMG_3416.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KWNJDs7Dugw/UyKGP46OsGI/AAAAAAAACwQ/1O9HY5Ar7JA/s1600/IMG_3416.JPG" height="316" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
To say Hubs was impressed with his Cards would be an understatement, I think he thought I forgot! These really were quick to put together, I encourage anyone with a Silhouette to have a go at the Print and Cut feature... it really is so easy and fun!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a great day!

A pinterest inspired sewing project that is fairly easy and quick to put together. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0q9y1RhhqV0/UxmkjppSiNI/AAAAAAAACus/3OmeU0OJW9U/s1600/IMG_3319+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0q9y1RhhqV0/UxmkjppSiNI/AAAAAAAACus/3OmeU0OJW9U/s1600/IMG_3319+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
I found two posts on how to make these one here: <a href="http://www.petitelemon.com/blog/2011/03/28/how-to-make-a-burp-cloth/">http://www.petitelemon.com/blog/2011/03/28/how-to-make-a-burp-cloth/</a> and one here: <a href="http://littleredhousedesigns.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/baby-shower-gift-1.html">http://littleredhousedesigns.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/baby-shower-gift-1.html</a>. Pre-folded cloth diapers are mentioned as the base for the burp cloths, something I couldn't find here in Australia so I used cotton towelling instead.<br />
<br />
I have a huge stash of materials, so I like to have a look in the piles of fabric before buying more...lol. After digging around I found some cotton towelling I bought by the metre... apparently it is very hard to find now a days, shows you how long it has been sitting in the cupboard. Plus I came up with a bit of flannelette, some lace and ribbon.<br />
<br />
My burp cloths are...<br />
1 - 15x15in piece of cotton towel<br />
1 - 7x15in piece of cotton towel for the padding in the middle<br />
1 - 7x16in piece of flannelette for the top<br />
2 - 16in pieces of ribbon, lace, twill etc <br />
<br />
I played a bit with folding the towel in the middle to make the padding in the centre. This first cloth is three layers thick, which I think is just one layer too much!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZIfsvzVGNFI/UxmkefKwJkI/AAAAAAAACuU/9yr95BeBEwA/s1600/IMG_0773+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZIfsvzVGNFI/UxmkefKwJkI/AAAAAAAACuU/9yr95BeBEwA/s1600/IMG_0773+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Looks lovely all folded up, but not very flexible... so onto attempt no. 2.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TGRhaMAH7Ps/UxmkiiIhqbI/AAAAAAAACuk/HmBq5ZHr9fw/s1600/IMG_3224+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TGRhaMAH7Ps/UxmkiiIhqbI/AAAAAAAACuk/HmBq5ZHr9fw/s1600/IMG_3224+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Burp Cloth No.2 - Method...<br />
Step 1. Position the 7x15in piece of cotton towel in the centre of the 15x15in piece of cotton towel. Zigzag stitch the pieces together on the long edges. This is now the BASE of your burp cloth<br />
Step 2. Overlock the edge of the base piece. <br />
Step 3. Iron under .5in on the short edges of the flannelette. Position the flannelette in the centre of the base piece of cotton towel and pin in place.<br />
Step 4. Position the ribbon and/or lace over the raw edges of the flannelette, so the flannelette edge is roughly in the middle and pin in place. Don't forget to turn under the .5in allowance on the ends of the ribbon.<br />
Step 5. Sew up both sides of the ribbon and across the top and bottom edges of the flannelette. The lace and ribbon were attached using a triple stitch, along with a walking foot on my sewing machine to help feed the thick materials through. <br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After making the first few test burp cloths, I realized I would need more material to make the real thing for my daughter. As I couldn't find towelling by the metre I bought 75x150cm bath sheets from Target, this will yield 5 burp cloths 15x15in. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They only thing I would change is either sewing a piece of bias binding around the edge of the base or turning under a seam. My Daughter uses at least two cloths everyday and with the constant washing the edges are getting a bit tatty.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was another quick sewing project that I had fun making, with the end result being rather cute! I recommend giving it a try, they make sweet Baby Shower gifts.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a great day!

<br />
So far I have finished June and most of July 2013, my intent is to finish last year before I start this year... and I'm doing it *grin*.<br />
<br />
I am finally using more die cuts and embellishments on my pages and loving the look. Lots of hearts on these two pages!<br />
<br />

This was the original I had printed professionally, some oh fifteen years ago... hmmmm time for an update right!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vllohaK0qJM/UxRLfErCA0I/AAAAAAAACoQ/YzkLku8jZjY/s1600/IMG_1353+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vllohaK0qJM/UxRLfErCA0I/AAAAAAAACoQ/YzkLku8jZjY/s1600/IMG_1353+copy.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I whipped up a logo in photoshop and opened it in my Silhouette program. Don't forget to mirror your image so it prints backwards.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FGqfL5zDfro/UxRMHR9nNUI/AAAAAAAACoY/eFXZSKEhmlk/s1600/IMG_1347_01+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FGqfL5zDfro/UxRMHR9nNUI/AAAAAAAACoY/eFXZSKEhmlk/s1600/IMG_1347_01+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I printed it onto the Silhouette Iron On Transfer paper using my ink jet printer and ran it through the Silhouette to cut. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zMEMnmkEMT0/UxRML5rak2I/AAAAAAAACog/3BvjwJ6nqZo/s1600/IMG_1344+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zMEMnmkEMT0/UxRML5rak2I/AAAAAAAACog/3BvjwJ6nqZo/s1600/IMG_1344+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once my new look labels were all printed and cut, it was time to heat up the iron. First of all I removed the excess iron-on material from the backing using the hook tool, then I cut the labels and backing into strips for easier ironing.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FYM5xytAf-0/UxRMPKQtoGI/AAAAAAAACoo/sshU2QT7bFA/s1600/IMG_1350+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FYM5xytAf-0/UxRMPKQtoGI/AAAAAAAACoo/sshU2QT7bFA/s1600/IMG_1350+copy.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used a satin ribbon 19mm or .75in wide to iron the labels onto. Read the instructions carefully on how to iron the transfer on...seriously... I am so impatient, I just want to rip that backing off as soon as I have finished ironing and that is usually when I blow it and muck up the transfer! MUST.WAIT. till it is cool before taking the backing off...hahahaha. If you follow the instructions this is what you get... awesome looking labels!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To finish off the labels I used my pinking shears to cut the edges. How cute are these...</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was so easy to do and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new look labels... and with that I am off to sew at least one label onto something...lol!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Well the sewing machines have well and truly been dusted off and put to use... let the sewing adventures begin!<br />
<br />
I felt it was time I made something for at least one of my three granddaughters. Seeing as it has been forever since I last sewed, bibs seemed like a good easy project to start with.<br />
<br />
I found some patterns on etsy that were sooo cute... I just loved the Apple, Pear and Pumpkin!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9ntIpgBP0Xo/UwsIH5XvqfI/AAAAAAAACkM/toiVcVy6e9s/s1600/IMG_3342+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9ntIpgBP0Xo/UwsIH5XvqfI/AAAAAAAACkM/toiVcVy6e9s/s1600/IMG_3342+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you would like your own copy, you can get them from Precious Patterns <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/preciouspatterns?section_id=5712030&ref=shopsection_leftnav_4" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong><u>WARNING:</u></strong> This shop has way too many super adorable patterns...lol!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It took me a bit to find all the right materials... fusible fleece/cotton batting is not so common in the stores near me but I did find it in the end. The patterns were so easy to follow, even the instruction on how to put the binding around the neck.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n1e07K-DMeU/UwsIJ-38i9I/AAAAAAAACkc/8ml6Fb_QM6w/s1600/IMG_3335+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n1e07K-DMeU/UwsIJ-38i9I/AAAAAAAACkc/8ml6Fb_QM6w/s1600/IMG_3335+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I must admit I wasn't a fan of the brown bais around the neck for every bib. As there were limited colours to choose from in my local material stores, I made my own in the colours I thought I would like more. Yes I made my own... I went digging around in my bit and bobs and found a bais binding tool... who remembers these, hahahahaha!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xF9CcSF1F7A/UwsM-OEp6fI/AAAAAAAACks/6WNuccDP6Eg/s1600/IMG_3343+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xF9CcSF1F7A/UwsM-OEp6fI/AAAAAAAACks/6WNuccDP6Eg/s1600/IMG_3343+copy.jpg" height="395" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A couple of tricks I used to make sewing the bias easier.... 1. Iron the binding in half before you sew. 2. Unfold the ends of the bais. Fold in half right sides facing and sew the ends, then turn back through. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vfDst1LbiCk/Uw0_L5X_AyI/AAAAAAAACk8/bClfACpifb8/s1600/IMG_3458_01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vfDst1LbiCk/Uw0_L5X_AyI/AAAAAAAACk8/bClfACpifb8/s1600/IMG_3458_01.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You should now have a neatly sewn end. 3. Place a piece of tear-away under the bias as you sew it together (I found this gave the sewing machine feed dogs something to grip both sides and I ended up with straighter stitching.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9K8VYRZ434Q/Uw0_M6GT0FI/AAAAAAAAClE/4RVYA5jJdMI/s1600/IMG_3458_02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9K8VYRZ434Q/Uw0_M6GT0FI/AAAAAAAAClE/4RVYA5jJdMI/s1600/IMG_3458_02.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once I had completed the first three patterns I then went on to make a couple of my own designs, a Strawberry and a Grape... well it's grape shaped...hehehe! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OcbRSqxSSXg/UwsIJLAU93I/AAAAAAAACkU/iJkQN6PzZYU/s1600/IMG_3341+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OcbRSqxSSXg/UwsIJLAU93I/AAAAAAAACkU/iJkQN6PzZYU/s1600/IMG_3341+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
There you go, super easy and so adorable! On that note I'm off to sew a couple more.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Have a great day!

I picked up Echo Parks Bundle of Joy and a Project Life Album to put together a little baby book for my DD to keep a record of my newest little granddaughter' First Year.<br />

I loved the size of this 6x8 album and the colour of course, plus it had the perfect amount of pages to capture a years worth of Baby's Firsts!</div>

February is a BIG birthday month for me... not only do I celebrate my birthday but also my DIL and a niece and my dad. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As always trying to come up with something for a male card is bit of a task. While I was busy looking for ideas, I came across Tim Holz blog post for February's <a href="http://timholtz.com/12-tags-of-2014-february/" target="_blank">12 Tags of 2014</a>. One of Tim's techniques for this month's tag was to emboss a stamped image then rub chalk over the top...LOVE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was my take on the technique...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vM7K9ud6vtE/Uw1PJfvyhLI/AAAAAAAACmA/z5afy5JfuXo/s1600/IMG_3424.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vM7K9ud6vtE/Uw1PJfvyhLI/AAAAAAAACmA/z5afy5JfuXo/s1600/IMG_3424.JPG" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As soon as I read Tim's post I just knew I had to use this stamp - The Traveller... </div>

Loved how it turned out with the chalk rubbed over the embossed stamping.<br />

The journal ticket I had to make as I don't have any of these... SAY WHAT!!! Tim used this in the <a href="http://timholtz.com/12-tags-of-2014-january/" target="_blank">January 12 Tags of 2014</a>, another brilliant tag I will have to try at some stage. </div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Aaaaad... I finally got to play with a stencil, this one is Tim Holtz - Clockwork. The inked part of the image is meant to be embossed but guess who ran out of clear embossing powder...hahahaha! Nothing like being organised and prepared, right *wink*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Have a great day!<br />

<br />
I am so grateful last year I was able to attend, what turns out to be the last Archivers Scrapfest event ever!!!
So many good memories from a fantastic trip I hope I never forget... on that note here are a few of the highlights from the weekend to help me remember how awesome it was!<br />
<br />
Mall of America - O.M.G. totally blew me away with it's size... and the shops, so many shops...lol!!! The only Mall I have ever seen that has a huge amusement park inside!<br />
<br />

Welcome to Scrapfest 2013!!! </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I attended workshops on Friday and Saturday. As you can see by my map of the mall below, I marked out what workshops and Make&Take booths I wanted to see so I knew well in advance where I had to be. I didn't want to get lost in the Mall of America...hahaha!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-z-bVSebQtJY/UsaQKditbJI/AAAAAAAACiM/YtfXoBfO26Y/s1600/ScFst_005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-z-bVSebQtJY/UsaQKditbJI/AAAAAAAACiM/YtfXoBfO26Y/s1600/ScFst_005.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Day 1 - First workshop was with Tim Holtz (of course)... what a class, in a word brilliant!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-l3bNgg1dIcE/UlKH8_17ihI/AAAAAAAACb8/Ftb1_DVTdIk/s1600/Rotunda02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-l3bNgg1dIcE/UlKH8_17ihI/AAAAAAAACb8/Ftb1_DVTdIk/s1600/Rotunda02.jpg" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I took a mini suitcase with me each day to carry all the goodies we were given from the workshops attended. Can not tell you how invaluable it was. I would have needed four extra hands to carry everything, we were given that much! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Day 2 - More workshop goodies...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I learnt many new techniques, I was introduced to a lot of awesome craft product and meet some of the nicest ladies, who like me love to craft. I had such a great time, a truly awesome weekend.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So thank you Archivers for organizing Scrapfest, I know a lot of the ladies I met will be very sad that not only Archivers the company but Scrapfest will be no more. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a great day!

Had a little play at making a baby card for my newest Granbaby! I just love the onesie cards and this one was pretty simple... I used a Silhouette cut file the only addition was the under collar and pockets!</div>

<br />
This is my first and so far only digital scrap layout for 2013... ooooo doggy it has been a very, very long time since I have created one of these. <br />
<br />
So what caused this digital scrapfrenzy??? <br />
<br />
As you may or may not know Digital Scrapbooking Day is Nov 2nd and lots and lots of Digital Stores celebrate with sales and games, etc. Scrap Orchard is one such site who happens to stock digital kits from a Designer I love...Kristin Aagard. Kristin is giving away this awesome little kit called Snap On in 4 parts which you have to collect... one from her blog, her facebook page, Scrap Orchards facebook page and to get the last part you need to participate in a Scrap Orchard forum game called Connectfour. So I am, well i will be when I have been granted forum access... and this is the layout! All digital...Woot, Woot!!!<br />

DECEMBER DAILY 2013 FRONT COVER</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
So, why so excited? Well the month of December is crazy insane for me. Between working extra hours and all the decorating and cooking and shopping...etc, I struggle to fit in crafting of any kind. Last year I attempted to be in front of the eight ball and ordered a December Daily kit from Studio Calico, unfortunately the kit didn't arrive until after December started ...and I'm still working on that album :) <br />
<br />
Anyway, back last year I fell in love with Simple Stories Handmade Holiday range and bought a few bits and pieces in preparation for this year. Love, love, love Handmade Holiday!!! I digress ...hehehehe, while at Scrapfest 2013 I participated in a workshop by Simple Stories and created an I Love Summer <a href="mailto:Sn@p">Sn@p</a> album. WOW... the workshop sure did open my eyes on how to embellish the <a href="mailto:Sn@p">Sn@p</a> albums to give them a bit of pop! My Project Life <a href="mailto:Sn@p">Sn@p</a> album is sure going to get a make over...lol! Being so inspired by the workshop I decided to make a start on this year's December Daily album over the weekend, meaning to do a little bit each week ...but once I started I just couldn't stop!<br />
<br />
And this was the result.... (warning lots of photos)<br />

I have heaps of embellished pages and pockets for photos and journaling and I have lots of blank pages to be creative with depending on what I use them for. I used my silhouette for the cutout pages and pocket cards, aren't they cute! </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
So what are you doing for Dec Daily this year... buying a kit, making one from scratch or going Digital? I'd love to know!</div>
<br />
Have a great day!

and I for one am very excited to learn a bit more from the Master of Distress...Tim Holtz!<br />
<br />
Last year I was a Creative Chemistry 101 graduate and I loved every single day of class. I learnt so many tips and tricks on how to use and play with inks, stains, stamps...etc. The lessons were easy to understand with notes and videos to follow... definitely one of the best online classes I have ever taken.<br />
<br />
Tim really is a Master Craftsman, this I can honestly say after having attended one of his workshops at this year's Scrapfest held in the Mall of America. Tim has a way of speaking so that you feel not only motivated but confident to give any technique a try. He comes across as a very genuine person and very approachable, not to mention one of the most amusing Teachers I have ever encountered.<br />
<br />

Really looking forward to class on Monday, registration is still open if anyone is interested in joining me!<br />

I decided that more of my my journaling needed to be on a white background with colour behind the photos. The pages are looking a little cleaner, which I like alot!

Let me just say the drivers in America seem to be crazy, mad drivers... this maybe in part because we can't get the hang of the traffic signals and the cars drive on the wrong side of the road...hahahahaha! During peak hour times the police are out directing traffic and keep everything moving along. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div>

We are still having a few problems with the language when ordering beverage. Don't ask for a white tea... you will be looked at like you are a very strange person and they won't understand but if you ask for a black tea with milk you won't have a problem. Coffee... while you maybe able to get a cup on any street corner beware, it is not the instant coffee we have at home. Drip coffee is the norm or latte/cappuccino. Oh and if you would like lemonade ask for sprite *wink*. </div>

After which we walked the long way back to the hotel instead of catching a cab or bus. I'm telling ya we walked miles and miles but if we hadn't I wouldn't have got this shot of Boston at night.</div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-RkSBjL8aFsc/UjopDGfNyXI/AAAAAAAACa4/m0A58zesKbU/s640/blogger-image--871987761.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-RkSBjL8aFsc/UjopDGfNyXI/AAAAAAAACa4/m0A58zesKbU/s640/blogger-image--871987761.jpg"></a></div></div><br>
