I've often been told I was certifiable...

but now it's official... ;) I recently achieved my Tattered Angels Certified Designer designation. I'm so happy!!

Springy Ride

Really enjoying the great colours in the new Lily Bee lines (this is from Happily Lost and Stationary). They are such happy colours! I combined them with a little Tim Holtz washi tape, and punched up the green with Doodlebug jewels. (I forget that I have these in my stash - I need to use them more often).



I coloured these wooden butterflies with Glimmer Mist (Viva Pink). I love mists on wood, as it allows you to still see the grain.

She Art canvas #1

Seems like half the people I know online have been taking the She Art classes from Christy Tomlinson. This comes as no huge surprise to me, as I have taken the classes myself, and thoroughly enjoyed them. She is a good teacher, and her style makes mixed media art very approachable. This is the first canvas I created, after following the course. (Oh, the size is 6"x12")

Mixed media is something that I've wanted to get into for about 10 years. Yup - I waited that long. I was that intimidated by it. It's something that I will be exploring further, so you will most likely see more of it mixed in here with the scrappy stuff. :)

Poser - Scrap Attack Scrapbooking

This is my final layout for Scrap Attack Scrapbooking (my term ended in April). Thank you Lauri for having me on the team - I've really enjoyed working with you and the rest of the designers.

I spritzed the background paper with a bit of "Tattered Leather" Glimmer mist, then brushed it on around the edges for a darker border. Here's a close-up of some tulle I wrapped around the page. The tulle adds an airy detail, and I love it.


These pearls/crystals/fimo flower combinations from Prima are so pretty!


These flowers started out orange, but I wanted a darker colour for this page, so I spritzed them with Glimmer Mist in "Sugar Plum Fairy", which had the side benefit of adding a little shimmer.

Say what? - Scrap Attack Scrapbooking

This is the fourth layout I created for Scrap Attack Scrapbooking in April. I loved these Prima papers - the colours are outstanding.

Lauri sent me a full package of the Zva Creative leaves, and they are a beautiful accent, even when not combined with flowers.


I didn't realize it until I received the package, but the bling with these Prima pebbles is not attached, so you can use it separate from the pebbles, giving a lot more options for placement.


I used one of the journaling spot stickers to back my title, which draws a little more attention to it, and makes it easier to read the dark letters.
