New Design--what do you think!

I found this design through Template Mama. I just love it! I also liked my old one too, but sometimes I get bored with a design and need to change it. It's like buying a new dress, but after wearing it a few times, you just get tired of the look. That's the way it is with blog designs. Although I should keep it consistent. Not good for business if I keep changing the background! I'm hoping to start uploading projects soon. Keep a lookout!!

Redesigning the Blog!

I am currently re-designing the blog, so it will be temporarily down. Fingers crossed I don't lose everything! Check back later!

Different Styles

I thought I'd share two layouts I submitted to Memory Makers several months ago. One (Celebrate) is a two page layout of my bridal shower. Excuse the quality of the photos and the upload. This is a shabby chic style of scrapping if you're not familiar with that style. I used clusters of Prima flowers, bling (shiny stuff!) lacy border (Queen & Co.) paper doilies that I thought added a nice background to the clustered flowers. I also used a cloth doily cut in half and adhered to the edging of the paper to give it a more feminine, wedding type feel. Anything that looked feminine and vintage, I added. The other image "First Dance" uses the decorative paper as embellishment. I bought a second piece, cut out the leaves of the tree to give the page a 3D look. The paper is so pretty that I didn't want to cover it with other embellishments. I just did journaling around the half-circle and added some bling amongst the decorative print to give it that wedding feel. Thanks for looking!

Lots of New Inspiration!

I attended a blogging party through Cupid's Charm and found so many inspirational blogs. I am so motivated now! I'm hoping that through Scrapmom's Musings that I can get more to follow me here. This blog will be strictly for the sale of handmade paper art projects with an occasional post about my daily life. A Scrap Mom's Musings (http://scrapmomsmusings.blogspot.com) will be more interactive with tutorials, display of my layouts, daily talk of everyday life, etc. I'm really hoping this blog will take off. I just ordered business cards (and a t-shirt!) from Vista yesterday. I do hope they come in before I go to CKC. That will be a way to drum up business. Well, it's off to find some more inspirational blogs!
