Featured Artist on Gems by Jerri

Yesterday I was the featured artist on a fellow etsian's blog, Gems by Jerri. It was a fun featured that not only showed off some of my work but also allowed me to answer a few questions about myself and why I love scrapbooking so much.

Here's a sample of my interview:
What is your favorite item in your shop?
My favorite item right now is "our little LADYbug". It's a 2 page 12x12 scrapbooking layout that was inspired by a little girl that came into the photo studio that I work at. She was so cute and was wearing a ladybug outfit. As soon as I saw it, I knew that I needed to make a ladybug layout.

Tell me a little about you and your background in crafting?
I'm a stay at home wife that works part time at a local photography studio. My husband and I built our dream home about 2 years ago on a lake in SW Missouri. I claimed the bonus room over the garage as my studio and spend most of my time in it. I guess that I inherited my love of crafting from my mom. We made crafts every Christmas when I was growing up. Homemade ornaments, plastic canvas items, flowered swags, and even quilts. My love for scrapbooking began in the 8th grade and was reintroduced to it in the late 90's. Scrapbooking has now snowballed into a huge part of my life.

Have a creative day!

Featured on my Handmade Registry

Wow! This morning I woke up and did my usual routine of checking my email, ScrapBiz, Facebook, and of course my Etsy store. Imagine the joy that I felt when waiting for me was a convo. (For those of you not familar with Etsy, a convo is like an email that you receive through Etsy)
Excitedly I clicked on the convo and was surprised to learn that one of my listings has been featured on the front page of my Handemade Registry! Wow!
Have you seen this site before? It's way cool. Working like a gift registry at Macy's, JC Penney, or even target, you can choose all things handmade from various Etsy artists and actually register for your wedding, baby shower, even your birthday here. Then just let your loved ones know where you're registered and voila, you get all the handmade goodies you like! Well, that is, only if they purchase them. It's not exactly magic, but pretty darn close!
I encourage you to check it out today!

SPRING Wordbook

Spring has sprung! Here's a fun wordbook from Midnight Oil Scrapbook Designs. Each letter was covered with Bo Bunny's Alyssa line and some textured cardstock from Bazzill. We inked the edges with a touch of Pewter ink for that worn look. To finish it out, we embellished our wordbook with some fun Stardust Stickles and blinged it out with rhinestones in a variety of springtime colors. A few brightly colored ribbons around the binding, and it's completed. Now we just have to add your pictures to this lovely book.
This wordbook would be great for showing off Easter pictures, fresh flowers in your garden, or add your kiddos playing in the park!

This wordbook may be purchased in our Etsy store.

'TOAD'ally CUTE pagekit

I have had this pattern paper for a while now and finally figured out what to do with it. Any little boy would be a fantastic subject for this layout. You can purchase it in our etsy store.

PreMade Pages and Page Kits

Did you know that you can purchase premade pages as well as our pagekits? So, if you don't have time to put together the pagekit yourself, you can pop over to our etsy store and purchase the pagekit already assembled. If we don't have the page kit premade in our store just email us and we'll be happy to put another one together for you for a $5.00 assembly fee.

Up to a little Monkey Business

Here's a fun new page kit that I designed using Reminisce's Monkey Business paper line. I love how cute the little monkey faces are AND their googley eyes just crack me up. I hope you like it too.








If you love this pagekit and cannot live without it, you can purchase it here in our Etsy store.
