The Event at Legacy Scrapbooks in Cedarburg was a success! Thank you so much Colleen for inviting me and having me! Your store was inspiring and full of goodies, just how I remembered it!
Okay ladies and gentlemen. . .I know you are going to be as impressed as I was when opening up the photo files Jana sent in for today! I think we all need to invite ourselves over for a scrappin' party! I'm going to let Jana take the floor from here and walk us through her Scrapbooking Room.
"A Day in the Life..."
I'll be at Legacy Scrapbooks this Wednesday night from 6:30-8:30 pm. I'm so excited to visit this great store, located in a super awesome area, the Historic Downtown of Cedarburg. All the quaint shops and community closeness is so charming!
It's Friday! Yay! That means another peak into an Artista's scrap space! I know lots of you can relate to Charity's dining room scrappin' area!
I also have several rolling plastic storage units in our bedroom for other things. One day I hope to have a creative area to call my own!
I love Target dollar section for storage items. I found this blue bucket there and use it to hold all of my acrylic and puff paint!
Finally, the last of Charity's Artista projects are these beautiful handmade cards using the Swing Into Spring collection.
(Love the grass ruffle on this card! Great landscape!)
Thanks Charity for sharing your storage and space with us! Your beautiful work has been so inspiring!
Use a solid piece of cardstock as your background/base.
Hi everyone! My name is Charity. I am 34 years old. I have been married to my honey, Brian, for 6 years. We have a 4 year-old named Alexander and Audrey Marie who is 2 years old. I work one shift a week as a RN in the Surgical ICU at Mayo. The rest of my days are spent making sippy cups, playing playdough and trying to scrap during nap-times! One of my favorite things on the planet is chocolate covered popcorn (I'm a chocoholic)! I have been scrapbooking for nearly 6 years now, but became "serious" about it around 4 years ago. My style varies, but I try to use product in unique ways. I also enjoy making cards and other crafty things.
"I used my scalloped edged scissors on the Lineage paper and then cut around the circles in the Heritage paper's design to create a scalloped edge on that as well. The holes down the side of the paper were made with a hole punch and twine was used to thread through. Love the wee little trees on the family tree paper, but this time I cut them out and used them as flowers. Centers of the flowers are popped up with pop dots.
Here are some close-ups!
