Check this out for altered art

Vintage images and great blog

My first date with Tim Holtz


Well I have to say he didn't disappoint! I had to do some terrible things to get one of my packs of cling stamps off D a week early...but it was so worth it! Made a book mark for him since he was using a gay ass heart page since he won't turn down the pages of a book. He likes it, it's manly enough for him and he thinks I can start turning them out now!

Duvet Day

Diablo can be stopped in his tracks once anything is thrown over his head and he loves nothing better than a good throw down when I am changing the duvet. Funny thing is when we play this and I ask where he is, his lil tick tock tail wags like mad but he stays still as a statue

Sketch 92 from Creative Scrappers inspired me again, gives  me inspiration every week and a kick up the bum to get scrapping!

Scrap Class makes


Really have to get a group shot next time or maybe just stop snapping randomly when no one is looking!The work they did was fantabulous but I'd say they were cursing me while they covered the whole album!

Young Love



I found 2 photobooth photos from when we were first going out all the way back in 2003. Used BG embellishements and paper which I thought had a nice romanticy feel to them. Double embossed the young with UTEE. Can't believe how young we look!
Used Creative Scrappers sketch no. 91!

Little Thinker

I love when people shove photos in my face and go ...here, scrap that!
The background paper is patterned and photographed like a magic eye photo, realllly have to stop taking pictures at night time!
I know what Amy is going to think when she sees this, why is she calling me a Little Tinker, it did run through my mind when I was doing it lol

If you had the chance...

What would you say to your one year old self? Used a masking technique to create the white rectangle in the centre of the page, using blue and yellow ink (with a dirty sponge tsk tsk), cut a window out of the green poka dot paper and placed a heavy patterend paper behind. Sentiments are K&CO from a die cut pack.

Love using my ribbons like this lately, just bunched together and tied with another ribbon. Added some clear accents on the buttons to make them uber shiny
Sketch 90 from creative scrappers, who else!!!

Resist embossing

Hmmm I love UTEE, DH wanted to know if I could make gold how come we are still so poor....

I didn't think I would like the owl stamp from Hugs and Honey but once I stamped it I knew I would not be able to get enough of it! I tried some new techniques like embossing flowers with clear powder then using Tim Holtz ink I inked the tag and then stamped red flowers and the owl over it
