Ski memory book!

I made a mini book (sneaked out from family and Xmas celebrations to my scrap corner) from one of our skiing trips to the French Alps, Courchevel. I used Xmas papers from Basic Grey...Nothing difficults, just straight forward.

Anna's Xmas gift to me!

My wonderful scrapping friend, Anna, gave me a Gaja (elephant) mug and a hand made card for Xmas. I will always remember you when I scrap and drinking coffee!

Merry Xmas from Nilla!

I wish you all a Merry Xmas and I see you with more scrapping fun in January 2009!

Christmas tags cont.

I finished my tags at home and these turned out to be the best. I (we) used papers from K&Company  which I cut out pieces from, distressed inks, distressed stickles! One of my favorites things are to use the scissors distressing technique (Scrapperlicious) and then ink with distressed ink.

Christmas Tag workshop!

Today we met at Choo's Scrapping memories. WOW has he got a lot of stuff for the moments! Hurry, and you will find a lot of nice scrapping things for X-mas. Today we used whatever we could find in the shop to make the tags. Catherine decided she was a pink lady (?) today but made wonderful tags with backgrounds from Distress ink. She taught us an easy way to apply the ink, just use wet tissues! Choo has got the new distrassables stickles, which we used a lot. 

Anna (and Nilla, her tags coming soon) worked more on the traditional side today, using gold, red embossing and inks.

 

Xmas Cards and ATC!

Since I decided this year, to buy Christmas Cards from the refugees, I did not have to make any, but I thought maybe I do one or two. And at the same time I did  2 ATCs. Vive la Xmas!

Fun(d)raising silent auction! I won!

I am so lucky,  soon to have, on my scrapdesk,  5 new (old) stamps which I won on Scrap - n - Crops silent auction. This is my favorite:

Is it not cute? This stamp is from 1995 and now I can send out some cheerful wishes like this one:

Christmas Tag

A different tag based on Tim Holtz's 3 Christmas Tag 2008. I printed a photo on Studio sticky back canvas, distressed the edges with Black soot.  You get a pretty cool effect when you print on canvas. 

Nilla's ATC

Been doing it again, can't help myself:-) some more ATCs. Some from Michelle's class at Scrappingville ans some fun stuff at home.

Our (Live it! Scrap it!) next crop will be a Christmas crop at Choo's place in One Utama on the 15 December. I am hoping to demonstrate the first tag of 2008 Christmas collection from Tim Holtz. IF Choo gets the stuff in from Tim Holtz. Keep our fingers crossed!

December classes, including the ATCs are posted on

 Scrappingville. Check it out!

HOUSE MOUSE FUN(D)RAISING

Tim Holtz 12 tags of Christmas

Nillas

It's day ONE and the first tag is on Tim's blog.

I just love them. 

So check them out at

Tim Holtz blog!

Anna's ATC creations

Look how great Anna's ATCs turned out. Michelle taught how to use glossy paper and distress ink. We transferred copied picture with the help of packing tape to clip art. And of course we used my favourite stamp of them all, Tim Holtz!

By the way check out scrap-n-crop's silent auction. Wonderful stamps!

Michell's ATC Class

Nadia,Sharon,Dilla,Anna

Yet another wonderful day at Scrappingville. This time Michell came and taught us different techniques, among other stuff; transfer images. I will soon post the results. 

ATC serie

For these ATCs I used transparancy sheets from Collections Elements. On one side I dabbed alcohol ink in two different colors brown, blue and green. I used clipart from my latest collection of "Memories of a liftime" books. My best friend for the moments. Sorry Anna!

Leave me alone!

A sign for my teenagers door. Made on acrylic with alcohol ink, when dried I stamped a Tim Holtz spider web on the same side, wiped it off and voila you get like a white print design. More Tim Holtz stamps with black ink on the other side and then finished with rub ons. Cool?

Collage of ATCs

I made a collage of ATCs from what we learned from Sharon the other day. A lot of UTEE, I also included Mesh together with UTEE as a background. I have finally received the wonderful books; Memories of a lifetime, with a lot of pictures for scrapbooking. 

ATC class at Scrappingville

I know, I should be working (and believe me I am) but it's nice to also do something else, like Scrapping!! Today we had another class with Sharon at Scrappingville, more ATC with different UTEE techniques. Thanks Sharon for a lovely day, always good fun! Some of my ATC for today!

DT work - Wine holder

Choo at Scrapbook memories in One Utama gave me this Wine holder from Creative imaginations, it was not an easy form to work with, but I painted it red and just decorated it with parts from a Basic Grey paper. With the help of some gold embossing powder and glitter it turned out quite Christmasy. I sewed on two bells to the ribbons and inside I put a red paper behind the bottle and stamped Merry Christmas, in gold, of course.

Christmas Book!

This is my Christmas Book that I made at the last Live it Scrap it! crop session. We used papers from Making Memories - Falala. I did a book about Christmas preparations, writing cards, shopping, decorations etc.

Christmas wish!

Soon Christmas! We had our crop session the other day, where we started to make an album about our Christmas traditions. I will blog them later when finished. In the mean time I thought I put my wish list to Santa, maybe he reads my blog:-)

UTEE on ATC

Three more ATC, where I used different UTEE techniques. A new stamp from Tim Holtz Collections, at least new to me.
