New Teresa Collins paper for my family gratitude album

When i got my family gratitude kit that i ordered from my paperpantry and i started to put together the album, i knew that 6 plastic photocovers will not be enough for this huge mini as i have so many photos to put in. Luckily i found an online store that sold the paper in this line individually so i bought some more photoprotectors as well as some papers that were not included in the kit. I cant wait til i get these papers and for me to put it in the album. Once i finish i will make a video.





When I saw Samanthas yt clip of this mini i just had to have it!!

New stamps and a small haul

Today i went to do some shopping as i needed some notebooks and new pen and pencils.
Luckily, the store had 50 % of everything, including their scrapbooking items, so i bought 3 letter stamps, and small inkpads and some embossing powders as i have used almost all of my clear ones. I bought the embossing powder in bridal white with glitter, silver pearl and clear, brown and copper. I also bought a tiny attacher, the one with elephant on and attacher refills. they are really small and just like the tim holtz attacher, both for like 2 dollars. So now i dont need to buy a th attacher :)

My -paris nights- mini album (GCD Studios)

My latest mini album using GCD Studios - paris nights collection -



I have to say that i love to try out mini albums that inspire me. So far i have been trying to make minis inspired by Kathryn and Stephanie and Sandra. They are so talented and always give me ideas to further develope myself and put my own personalized touch to the minis i make. This time i made a mini with love theme. The original one (video below) is made by Sandra P as an engagement mini album, and i just fell in love with it when i first saw it. Unfortunatly i could not use same fonts as she used as i dont have any cricut machine but i am pretty pleased with the one i created.

more mini albums comin up!



Soon i will be uploading some new albums i have been working on, such as tc family gratitude and GCD studios paris nights. Still few things and embellis to put on and then will upload photos.

Huge order from simonsaysstamp.com


This is my second huge order from simonsaysstamp.com. The prices are somewhat more expensive however, they offer free shipping for international orders above 200$ so you really make a good deal anyway, as usually you pay so much just for the shipping when ordering from other online scrapbooking stores. These are the items i bought, will show photos once i get the package. I am so excited as i ordered some new tim holtz product and basic grey cappella, and these are brand new to me.

I have just come home from a month abroad, i attended a summercourse in UK, and it was wonderful, i took so many photos, and cant wait to get the photos so i can start put them in my tc album. While being away i have not had any time to scrap, and i missed doing it as it helps me to relax and think of something else for a moment, when you need some time to just chill and not to think of everyday life which can be soo busy. I was looking around online and found some new papers that i dont have and ordered them. I knew by the time i get back home i can go and pick up the package which i did today :)

The first 2 collections are by GCD Studios, the "Paris Nights", and the "Ella Blue". They are dubble sided with textured linnen finish and some of teh papares are flocked and distressed. An elligant and beautiful pattern. I simply love these 2 collections. But one thing i dont like with some online shops are they way the sell some products. These 2 collections come in pack of 48 but the sellers sell them in packs of 12 sheets and you still pay a very high price for it. The same goes for the last collection the La Papier by My mind's eye. It is just not fair that just beacuse we who dont live in US, we have to pay such a high price for less than half of the amount. Oh well :) At least we get the products. My fav online shop is still SImonsaysstamp but they dont have all the brands unfortunatly.
