Kit Crazy!!!

Happy Tuesday everyone! I have some exciting changes to tell you all about! First off, I have decided to completely stop selling my scrapbooks on ebay. With a sad heart, this also means that I am leaving the MOMZ design team there. After much thought and debate, I decided that it's the best move for me right now since sales for me on ebay have been so poor lately. However, I'm not going to stop selling! That just means I will be filling my etsy shop with more goodies!

Speaking of goodies... I worked really hard yesterday and LOADED my etsy shop with some new kits! I know you all love those DIY kits so I am trying things a little different. These are all still buy 3 get 1 free and I intend to keep that promotion going for a while. All of my kits used to be the same price, but I took some suggestions from customers and decided to offer a variety of kits at a variety of different prices. All newer & popular paper lines/larger kits will be $18. That means I will be offering more kits with papers from Basic Grey, Graphic 45, DCWV, etc. All kits made with paper lines that are a little older or kits that are a medium size will be $15. And all other kits will stay at $12.50, these will include most of the licensed kits as well (Disney, Hello Kitty, Hannah Montanna, Dora, etc).

Here's an example of the $18 kits:

Here's an example of the $15 kits:

Here's an example of the $12.50 kits:

Make sure you check out my etsy shop for all of these great DIY kits! I will try to add more on a weekly basis. If there is a theme/paper line that you would like for me to make a kit out of, please let me know!

Graphic 45... YUM!

Good morning to all of my blog friends! Happy Friday! I'm getting ready to head out to a doctor's appointment this morning, but I just wanted to post a quick post with my newest album!

This week, Momz ebay Design Group had a Graphic 45 paper challenge! Now I was not the first to jump on the Graphic 45 bandwagon by any means, I'm not good with Vintage, but I know that others out there love it, so I thought I would give it a try! Well, needless to say, now I'm addicted and I absolutely love their paper lines!

Here is a cascading paper bag album that I made using the "Curtain Call" paper line. I didn't have any tan lace so I used tea bags to dye my own :)

You can see this album on ebay now by clicking here.

Not only did I make this beautiful album with my Graphic 45 papers, but I found use for my scraps!

I made this card for my Friday Design Team challenge project for Little Scraps of Heaven Designs DT. Our challenge today was to use Buttons, flowers, and ribbon. Well, as you can see, I did all 3! The paper piecing that I made is the adorable little Harmony Bear pattern from LSHD. I also wanted to use my beautiful new stamps set that I just won from Market Street Stamps! This stamp set is called "Simple Joys" and can be found here. I just love how this little card turned out! If you love it too, you can find it now in my etsy shop!

Once Upon A Springtime

Well, I must admit, I'm not a big fan of vintage... BUT I did have fun with this line! I was not enthused at first to start an album because I unlike everyone else wasn't initially a huge fan of this paper. Once I started using it on my album, I began to like it a little more! Graphic 45 has some BEAUTIFUL paper lines out right now and they have made me really appreciate and have a new love for vintage designs on albums!

For this album I tried something a little different than usual. Now I did make one of these types of albums over Christmas, but haven't done one since then. I really like the cascading look, so I thought I would try it again on this album!

If you are interested in seeing more of this album, you can find it on ebay HERE.

Also, I wanted to share my Wednesday Design Team project for Little Scraps of Heaven Designs. I used some of my scraps from the album to make this adorable little card along with the LSHD Fairy Bears pattern set.

This little card can be found HERE in my etsy shop. Thanks for stopping by!

Crafty Clipboards!

Happy Friday all! Looking for a new project to try? I have a new love for altering clipboards!!! It's so much fun and they are soooo cute! These also make wonderful gifts, especially for teachers! Clipboards are also cheap, under $2 at Walmart!

These were all Design Team projects for Little Scraps of Heaven Designs and I wanted to share them here!

First is my project for today. I got on a kick this week with Disney so I made a few clipboards. I made this Disney Princess clipboard using the LSHD castle pattern and Belle from the Dress Me Like A Princess Pattern Set. The little dress tags were cut on my Cricut with the Happily Ever After cartridge.

For this clipboard I used Mickey & Minnie from the LSHD Clubhouse Gang Dress Up Pattern Set. The little tags were cut from my Cricut with Wrap it up and the mouse ears were cut from Mickey & Friends.

And lastly, this is one of my faves! I used the Close To My Heart Sonata line of paper for this clipboard. I also used a CTMH stamp for the sentiment. The little bear is the LSHD Harmony Bear Pattern.

You can find all of these clipboards in my etsy shop this week!

Oh Baby! ♥

Hello everyone! I haven't blogged in a few days, so I thought I would share a couple of my new creations!

Yesterday I had so much energy that I thought I might as well put it to scrappin' while I could! Apparently I was in a baby mood, so I made these two matching baby girl and boy albums.

You can find both of these paper bag albums for sale in my ebay by clicking HERE.

I also made 2 matching mini acrylic keychain albums.

These cute little albums can be found in my etsy shop HERE.

Heidi Grace paper was used for all of the albums above. Thanks for stopping by!

LSHD Blog Hop- Day 6!

Welcome to Day 6 of the very first Little Scraps of Heaven blog hop. You have reached your third destination on the hop. If you have arrived here from Patricia's Blog then you are on the right track, if you came to my blog and want to join in on the hop, please start HERE. If you missed yesterday's post, you can find it HERE (If you are just starting the hop today, make sure you check out all of my other posts from the previous days and sign up for the blog candy, the drawing will be at the end of the hop and a prize from my blog will be awarded for each day of the hop!).

I'm going to go ahead and apologize right now, I REALLY wanted to have a lot more done for this blog hop, but as always, sometimes life gets in the way! I've been sick the whole weekend and so has my daughter, it's nothing that is TOO bad thankfully, but a little cold and feeling just bla kind of makes me want to just lay around and do nothing. Keep in mind though, make sure that you check back daily because I AM doing a giveaway each day and the very last day of the hop I will have a BIG giveaway as well as a BIG project to show... I'm saving the best for last! :-)

Now on to today's project:

Since I haven't really moved from the couch much while being sick, I decided to do a digital layout on my laptop. I love digital scrapbooking and have loads of elements saved on my computer, but I don't do enough with them! One of my favorite place to buy digital elements is Sweet Shoppe Designs, if you haven't checked them out, you must do so! The elements for my layout today didn't come from there, but I did find them somewhere online for free, I'm sorry I can't provide that information for you because I really have no clue where they came from! I just fell in love with the little ladybug bear from LSHD, if you love it too, you can find it HERE. As you can see from the digital layout, I'm featuring MY little ladybug, Reagan. This photo is from her 1st Halloween (she's 3 now, wow how time flies!), I just thought it was simply adorable!

All of my projects (minus today's) from this weeks blog hop will be listed in my eBay listings or in my etsy shop within the week.

Today's giveaway comes from me again. If you haven't checked out my Etsy shop, please do so! I have lots of goodies in there! If you have checked it out, then you know I love to make these little mini keychain albums that are perfect for your wallet sized photos! So today, I'm giving one away! The winner will get the choice of theme/colors.

Here's an example of a keychain/purse mini album and how you can display it...I'm sorry, but my beautiful Vera Bradley purse is not included! :-)
