12 Month Scrapbook Challenge - January

As you know I love to watch podcasts and videos.  The one I love to watch is Creation with Christina(link on my blog title page).  She has established a challenge to create a 12 Month Scrapbook.  We last year, I turned 40 so I decided to do "Year at 40" album.  This was my January page since it is my birthday month.  My album is 8x8.  The green background paper is by Brazzil.  I used rubon's for the month.  I took pictures of all the gifts I received and used the Marvy Uchida scallop to cut them out.  The picture is 4x6 and the brown background is Brazzil.  I used some ribbon from Micheals(not sure of the brand).  The brad I made with my I-Top, I so love that tool.  The journal sheet came from a $1.00 pack from Micheals.  I am so bad about writing things down.  This is the first-time that I am posting a project of my for all to see.  I started scrapping in August 2004.  So I am by no means an expert and I still have a lot to learn about "rules of 3", colors and visulaization, etc.... so enjoy.

This is the Fantabulous Challenge Me Monday #62 ( Remember This Challenge #62 ).  In this challenge you had to create a Remember This .  You had to make something to remember a special person, time or anniversary.  The card measures 5.5x6.5 and I used the cricut cartridge "3 Birds on Parade" and cut everything at 4.5.  The paper used was papertrey ink ripe avocado and Basic grey 6x6 Matifica paper pad and brazzil chocolate and beige. 

Glitter Glue Dots -- Oh My!!!

Glitter Glue Dot Technique I used Stampin Up paper mellow moss Michaels Recollections stamps  VersaMark watermark stamp pad Michaels Recollection extra fine glitter - Apricot 3 different paper tapes (can not remember by who) I saw a video where the lady laid out glue dots and used embossing powder and heat set it.  So I decided to use glitter and use the small glue dots and it came out pretty cool.  I may try this on a larger area or even try the embossing technique.  My goal is to try more techniques that I find in magazines as well as enter more blog competions.
