Hello All! I'm in the midst of CHA and packing but I'd thought I'd let you know about a little contest I was asked to participate in for DinoTalk. They have the coolest recordable items that you can make into fantastic projects. With some of their items from the Naked line I was asked to make some pieces for their Scrapbook Invitational. There's two ways to vote: Visit Dinotalk at booth 1216 at CHA Or You can send your vote in a quick email to contest@dinotalk.com They are still working on getting the pictures up on the site so let me show you what I did.

I got a package of baby onesies and used a piece of this fabric from Michael Miller that I'd been saving for just such an occasion. To keep things quick and simple I used the pattern on the fabric instead of creating my own applique patterns.

It’s hot, let’s do a giveaway!

I'm staying cool by thinking about all the gelato I had in Italy: I have a confession: I always say I'm not a scrapbooker, but I made a layout yesterday. I remembered why I don't scrapbook as much.

I think I might actually frame it in a shadow box because I LOVE how it turned out! (The little … [Read more...]
