It's a Scrappy Life!

I was inspired by some of Dusty Attic gorgeous pieces to create these unique cards for father's day.  I used the Dusty Attic brackets to frame the cards and gave them a vintage worn finish in beautiful shades of blue and brown.  In the first card I used the small Dusty Attic tree and inked with a variety of paints to get a distressed, crackled finish.  The DA bracket is wrapped with seam binding and the kraft papers are from the new Tim Holtz kraft resist collection.  This listing is available here The second card also features a Dusty Attic bracket, and the tree here is made up of hand-rolled wire to simulate the tree top.  I used molding paste and a mix of mists and paints to get the worn look on the bracket.  This listing is available here

Hey everyone!!! It's been a while, I know, but semester is over, finals are over, and now I get a relatively less overwhelming summer period.  I have some mother's day stuff that I will be posting on a different post, but I want to share with you this layout that I made with a bunch of Prima goodies and is now for sale on my ebay!!! The listing is on this link: Ebay listing  This is pure prima goodness! I used the Madeleine collection, as well as prima branches and a flower from the Ella collection by Donna Downey.  I love simply elegant and romantic pages, and I loved this one so very much!  I hate to part with it! But I hope someone will love it and create an unforgettable memory with it. Here are more pictures: TFL!!!
