~Our Trip Travel Brag Bag~

Hey there crafty friends,

I have a fun post up on the Connie Crystal blog today using the 

Crystal Sheets and the Creating Made Easy June 2013 Kit-

http://sparklebycc.com/mini-album/

I love creating mini albums for summer and this one was a fun project!

 There are instructions for this project on the link! Head over and check it out.

Also tomorrow I will be sharing a wonderful NEW class using stamps

on SCRAPBOOK pages! I am very excited about this class using Avocado Arts!

Have a great Wednesday my friends-

~Clear Acrylic Glitter Word Ornament Tutorial!~

     Merry Christmas to my crafty friends!!! 

I am really in the ornament making mood and when I found these mini Expressions from Clear Scraps in my pile of goodness I thought it would be PERFECT to create even more fun ornaments. 

Step 1. Remover protective film from the back of the Expressions. Leaving the front film in tact.

Step 2. Coat back of Expressions in adhesive and Clearsnap glitter, set aside to dry. 

Step 3. Take Bell Mini Album or any wintery design from
Clear Scraps, remove both sides of protective film. 

Step 4. Using Piccolo embossing adhesive- apply embossing enamel
 or powder to edges on the adhesive. 

Step 5. GENTLY and slowly heat set using embossing gun. Just lightly place heat on and remove quickly, working your way around the Clear Scraps acrylic. If it begins to warp immediately remove heat then press gently with finger or tweezers. 

Step 6. Using Crop-A-Dile punch small holes where you want to thread ornament. 

Step 7. Thread ornament using thin mesh ribbon. Knotting in the back.

Step 8. Create bow using same ribbon, adhere to top of Bell Mini Album Page. 

Not only easy but beautiful and handmade! 

I wish I had my tree up to photograh but it's not quite ready yet,
I will be sure to share when it's up and on the tree!

~Happy Camper/Camping Clear Scraps Custom Word Album + GIVEAWAY~

Good morning my crafty friends! :)

I finally got around to post all the pages in my Happy Camping Album

from Clear Scraps. Did you know this week they are giving away

a custom made Word Album? You can choose Acrylic or Chipboard,

or mix it up like this one! :)

For the acrylic pages I coated the edges with Plaid Paint.

Then I dotted the front with Ranger Dimensional Pearls.

And on the chipboard I coated the pages with the Happy Camper Line

from Imaginisce, then I painted the edges with Plaid Paint.

I added real wood paper from Creative Imaginiations to the mattes and

I also used the packaging from the Happy Camper stickers for matting.

It's a very "green" project!

You might see this at the Clear Scraps booth at CHA this summer! :)

Oh and last but not least I used the fabric stickers for the Happy Camper line!

And one pretty Roly Posies flower.

I had alot of fun with this album...I cannot wait to put my camping photos

in it from our camping trip that is coming up!

The CAMPING title is My Little Shoebox too! :)

OK that's it for me today...I am off to hide in the AC, it is 100 this week and

boy when you walk outside you feel it. Plus the cicadas are so loud

I am going deaf!!! :)

Happy Hump Day! Go enter the GIVEAWAY from Clear Scraps!
