Halloween At Our House



Halloween at our house was over the top this year. It was like Disneyland meets Universal Studios. Nick is amazing and created a show for our visitors. Nothing was just bought and plopped down. Everything was customized. He made the skeletons talk and sing. He took regular pumpkins and made them sing. He built Michael Meyers, Jason and the Swat Zombie. I faux finished everything for a more realistic look. Nothing was left untouched. But, I have to admit we raided our studio of all the foliage and alot of the props, so we really spent very little money to achieve all of this. Even my son got into the spirit and helped to decorate. He was incharge of all the rats, snakes and critters that were tucked into all the nooks and crannies. It really was a blast to create and even more fun to watch our visitors faces.

New & On Sale - KITCHEN COUNTER


Can you believe the holidays are already rolling in? Where did this year go? It seriously flashed by for me. But I guess that is ok, I love the holidays. I love being with my family, sharing our traditions and seeing everything fresh through Jason's eyes. Nothing like the excitement of a 6 year old to keep you on your toes. One of the things that is synonymous with the holidays in our household is food! There are definite things that need to be on the table. My mom is a wicked cook and we have always cooked Thanksgiving together since I was little. Jason has now joined us and we have such a great time. I created this kit to help document all of your food traditions, recipes and cravings. The kit is huge and is packed with all sorts of food and loads of kitchen items. Its on sale until tommorow only, Oct 22. Happy Scrapping!

And here is some fabulous inspiration from my CT.

New Kit - ON DISPLAY

I was invited by Digital Artist Magazine to be a featured designer and create an exclusive kit for them. I love the magazine and eagerly jumped at the chance. I am always trying to think of ways to create kits to show off multiple photos or my son's art work. Fridge Art was my first kit that addressed that and now, On Display. This is a full kit with 7 papers and 33 unique elements. I have included a shadowed version as well. There are so many possibilities with this kit plus it's just super fun to play with! So be sure to pick your issue up this month. It also features darling kits by Kaye Winiecki and Nikki Beaudreau.
And as always, my wonderful CT rocked it hard!!!

I am so in love!

I saw this and feel instantly in love!! If I had the space, I would do it in a heartbeat! Designer Isabel Quiroga wanted to use some old pieces of furniture to create something new, original and unique …and she created this bookcase made of used tables. The tables are small cut and stacked. This is a great example of reuse old pieces of furniture to create something cool. The design is suitable for various purposes, including the establishment of a store. This design is called Storyteller, because Isabel is fascinated by the history of this furniture.
