That Darn Dog

I just get her spick and span and then this happens...
'God Made Dirt'
{scan}
Sure, sure, she's cute...but dirty, and then there are all of these wonderful, little paw prints throughout the house because she insists on busting past me at the door before I can wipe her feet... what a nutbar.
Anyway, this layout started with, well the pictures, but then a file folder, which has been cut down to 8.5" square.  I added some My Mind's Eye and Authentique leftovers and threw on some {acrylic} paint {just cheapies from the dollarstore} to create the look of 'mud'.  The alphas are a mix of Pink Paisley and Thickers that have been rubbed with a mix of sandpaper, Walnut Stain distress ink, more paint, and {homemade} glimmer mist.

{made dirt...so Gdirt don't hurt}
'God' has been popped up using popdots {dollarstore} for some added demension.  This is my first time really working with paints on a layout...and it will definitely NOT be my last!

 Thanks for stopping by!

A Guilt Trip...and some FREE STUFF!

BRACE YOURSELF...THIS ONE'S A DOOZIE!
Okay - I have been feeling a wee bit guilty about not scrapbooking...Then I got to thinking, that's not entirely true...While I haven't put a layout together in sometime, I have been QUITE BUSY with scrapbooking-related tasks! For example, like purging my scrappy supplies {some of which are pictured at the end of this post - they are up for grabs...more details below}, making {digital} invitations and fun signs for my Dad's Surprise 59 and a half Birthday Party, re-organizing my {ever-growing} supplies and the list goes on...
{Purged Supplies}
{Surprise Party Invites}
Back & Front
{Surprise Party Sign}
{PhotoBooth Signs}
 So, you see {self}, I HAVE been doing 'paper-crafting'!
NOW, onto the purged items... I think this is how I will do it, EVERYTHING IS FREE - EXCEPT for the SHIPPING! If you want it, just leave a comment saying just what item you would like {it is going to be FIRST COME {comment}, FIRST SERVE} and then just email me mailto:%7Bjazzie2103@hotmail.com} your shipping address and we will figure the shipping payment out together.
Okay, here are a couple of the items:
Vintage Measuring Tapes

Crate Paper - Restoration

That's it for today - remember to COMMENT AND EMAIL ME...and the item is yours! {When I run out, I run out!}

Wednesday 4 July 2012

It's Wednesday!

Thinking of You
It's Wednesday and it's my day to post at Just Imagine Crafts/Kreaxions Punches! For this card I punched the corners of the floral patterned Crate Paper with Kreaxions 4in1 Punch #304, I then kept the punched pieces and attached them to the cream matte for some added detail {plus a great way to use what I would have otherwise tossed in the trash!}. The sweet, little BIRDS {die} was cut on Crate, as well {I believe it is from the Random Collection - it came from my scrap box}!

Happy 4th of July to all of my American Friends {and Family}!
Great Days and Happy Crafting!
