12 Tags of 2012 - February

This year Tim Holtz has decided to retire his 12 Tags of Christmas and instead made the 12 Tags of 2012. Each month he will have a new tag with new techniques. This is the 1st but January will be included in March to play catch up. I like this a lot. This will allow me to work on other things along with my tags. Here is my take on his February tag.

The tag was cut from Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations die "Tag & Bookplates" with cardstock that I covered with scrapbooking paper, the edges were inked with Festive Berries Distressed Ink. I cut the cupid and hearts out with the Cricut. The hearts were cut in three different sizes then I added a pop dot in between each one. I added white home made tissue tape around a chipboard heart then added the cardstock hearts. The cupid was cut from grunge board, inked and Stickles added at the end. The bottom borders were cut with two different border punched, a Fiskers Heart border and a EK Scalloped Scallop border punch. The letters were stickers that were applied to cardstock then trimmed and inked. Can't wait to see what is next.

Make Your Own Scrapbook Page Kit

I have neglected my scrapbooks lately and wanted to get back into them so I printed off a ton of prints from Walgreens. Then I thought now what to do, so I decided to make up kits for my many events. First I separated the pics and placed them in bags, then I added the paper and embellishments.

Her is a picture of how I store them.

This video shows the process.

Slice Mini Album

I wanted to share with you a mini album that I made using the Slice to make the embellishments, along with some ribbon and bling. I just wanted to show how very nice the Slice is and how you can make a complete album, card or scrapbook page.

2011 Tag You're It

I am participating in a tag you're it series on youtube. It is a lot of fun, I like to see what others are using and consider their favorites. I was tagged by RJ at ChocoDrop2 and I am tagging Veronica at TheCoutureCrafter. This video shows some of my favorites.

Helpful Hints - Slice & Sneak peek at mini album

Hi all I wanted to share with you some hints I came up with for use with the Slice. Reusing parts of the package and making up a storage box. I also included a sneak peek into a mini album I am making using the Slice for the embellishments. Will post the finished album when complete.
