COOKBOOKIN' PAPERS

Recipe Scrapbooking Papers

A few years ago I discovered a line of papers in my favorite scrapbooking store, Scrapbook Village in Glasgow, KY.   The papers are made for Gooseberry Patch and they are called Cookbookin' Recipe Scrapbook Kits.  Now, since that time it has been rumored that Cookbookin' bought back their rights and separated from Gooseberry Patch.  I do not know if that is true, but if it is or isn't I just fell in love with this line of papers and have had fun with them ever since.  The following information is on the back of the paper folder.  www.cookbookin.com 

I wanted to make a mini book and I came up with a jar book.  The book that I designed is in the shape of a jar with white folded paper bags in the inside.  The bags are attached by sewing them into the fold.  The pages will hold, very successfully, all the papers, recipe cards and ephemera you can add.  

I will be offering these books to purchase on my website.  So watch for them to appear.  I will also be giving one away on a RAK pack I will offer in the near future for all followers.  If you haven't joined yet, sign up and you will have a chance to win.

Thank you for checking in today and remember to try something new today.  Happy scrappin'.

Howdy folks,
Well it has been about 3 weeks since my last entry.  Unfortunately I have been without the internet for that period of time.  We live in Nashville, TN and we have been without a land line phone and internet since the 5th of May.  It has been awful.  I am so behind with everything it will take me a while to catch up.  So please forgive me my fellow crafters and now I am back on track and ready to rip loose.  Here we go folks and hold on, there is a lot to catch up on.
I will be posting my first project later today.
Hope to talk to ya soon,
Sandra

Classic  Me

The above layout is the layout I mentioned in the last post.  The layout is highlighted with the teal colored fabric flowers I made using the flame technique.  I hope you watched the video and got a lot from it.  I plan on making more videos in the future and hope you tune in for more.  The flowers are blinged out with Prima gems.  They are so beautiful and add just the right touch.  I will be talking to you soon and have a wonderful day.  Happy scrappin'.

MY ALL AMERICAN GIRLS WITH THEIR AMERICAN GIRLS

A sweet layout with lots of little girl sugar.  When we get together we have a total of 6 "very cute" little girls.  There is always lots of giggling and laughter.  It is just amazing how they all play together and have such a good time.  Let me introduce them to you:  L-R  Becca Ann, RaeRae, Sarah, Ellie, Anna and Hannah.  The 2 youngest are only 3 months apart in age. 

I used the Sophie Collection papers by Bo Bunny.  They are just so cute and little girlish I couldn't resist.  On one of the sheets I cut  the flowers out, layering them and adding my fav adhesive, Helmar.  

The 3-D effect is defined so easily with the use of  zapdots and  scrap dots for the butterflies.

Pearls were added to the layout in the corners, lettering and the butterflies, so cute.  I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome.

I used my Cricut to make the butterflies and just added bling and curved them with my rounder (paintbrush handle).  I will do a short tutorial on how to make these and the flowers.  Very easy technique.  Try it sometime, you will love how it will add to all of your projects.

Thanks for stopping by today and remember to try something new today.

Happy scrappin'

Last Monday, I had 6 energetic visitors.  Lots of giggling, playing and talking, wow I must say! These precious little people are both grand-girls and friends.  They are all mine and they all call me Nana.  Just loved it!   The mothers were upstairs in my scraproom, sewing and scrapping and the girls were down stairs watching videos, playing Barbies and PlayStation.  We had the best time.  All the girls brought their American Girl Dolls and they had so much fun.  We couldn't resist taking pictures of the event.  I also scrapped the photos and I will share them with you later.

Thanks for checking in and remember to try something new today.  Happy scrappin'.
