2 Posts in one day! I actually made something!!!



A friend of mine has recently opened her own scrapping/stamping company out of her home. All of our specialty scrap and stamp stores have closed in our town, this is really nice. She has a crop every month, for $5.00 you can enter the challenge of the month. YOu get a bag full of at least $7.50 worth of products, we have a month to make anything we want out of it, bring it back to next month's crop and pick a winner. It's neat to see what everyone has done with the same materials. This is the first month I entered. I did a layout of my daughter,Mom and I when we went on a trip to the Biltmore.

Today she had her "Falliday Open House" I actually made a card and tag! I'm getting there, back into the mode. She had some really great products. Hopefully I can make a card tomorrow with my new Magnolia stamps, I'm excited, my very first Magnolia's!!!

Sounds like a fun place. I would be excited to get Mags too since I don't have any either.

The layout is fabulous and I love the Christmas tag and your card is wonderful too. Nice job. Simply sistas has these wonderful card scents that come in a bottle with a brush cap and you brush the scent on the outside of your card and seal it prior to sending it. She has a great tutorial on the site. They are a lot of fun! http://card-scents.com/

Btw I think your pics look fine. I think a lot of gals have taken photo taking classes and photoshop courses and I haven't done any of those. But you shouldn't worry. They look fine.
