New Catalog!!

The Spring/Summer Catalog is out!! And it is Awesome!! I love it! Here's a sneak peak at "Just Some" of my favorite new items!
YES!! We have Bakers Twine Yippie!!
Tapestry Velvet Rub-ons. They come in brown too! Very pretty. I can't wait to add them to my pages.

My favorite of the 8 new paper packs "Stella." If I had to choose colors I probably wouldn't have chosen this mix. I think that is why I love it so much! Look below at the matching "Canvas Shapes!" So cute! 
 So...You all know I'm not much on stickers! But I do like these felt alpha adhesive backed letters! How easy will these be to use!
Oh, I can't wait to get out summer pictures & play with these "Seaside Wooden Shapes!" You can stamp on them, color them, stain theme & more. I think they are fun & I love the paper pack "Footloose" that they coordinate with." (Paper pack not shown here. Follow the link.)

 And lastly...aren't these "Timeless Charms" pretty. Subtle & classy yet they will make a great statement on your cards or pages. The paper kit "Floretine" will coordinate perfectly and is beautiful. (Not shown her. Follow the link)
So don't tell my hubby but I think I'm going to go broke with this catalog! It was so hard to decide what to order first! I want it ALL!

Fall Scrapbook Pages with Twitterpated Paper

This is such a fun paper. I like these colors for a fresh look for Fall.
Add a chocolate photo hanger & adorn it with coordinating ribbons. Attach a border with a flair of color & "Wala" you have an easy page that comes together in a snap! Gotta love that "Art Philosophy" Cricut Cartridge. Look how cute the fall leaf & acorn are!
Notice the dry embossed border around the sunset photo matt. Make sure to crop your photo inside the lines and the frame will put emphasis on your photo.
Our Cartridge has the best images for journaling spots. Just cut it out & a
 color border & stamp your lines! Easy Peasy!

As a Close To My Heart Consulant. I can't refuse buying all the awesome papers & products in our line. I have had this paper forever & have not had time to work with it! I got it out before my Nov. crop & had some fun! I love the nature theme & colors. 

The owl is from Cricut's Storybook cartridge & the branch & leaves are form CTMH's AP cartridge as well as the journaling spot & circle border.

I AM DONE POUTING NOW!!

I'M DONE POUTING NOW!

So, I been MIA for quite awhile! The last post I was writing was huge…about 10 photos & lots of script. I was almost done & our internet went down & the whole article disappeared into cybor space. Uugh! So I started again while everything was still fresh in my mind & what happens…yup almost done again and the internet goes out again. Grrrrr.  O.K. so there goes 4 hours that I will never get back! And that is just the beginning of all the other problems.  

Well, we still sit with our home computer having the “black screen of death.”  That computer is also the one I have my photo editing software on. My Rebel will not sync with my laptop because the software is too old. (It’s one of the first “Rebels” that came out.) So I was taking photos with my phone.  Then in Nov. my camera breaks. What next I ask?  

So… I have found online photo editing & my DH got me a new Cannon Rebel for Christmas! (Which also came with photo shop.) There is nothing I can do about our internet service as it is all that is available where we live. Our home computer is still “Toast” but my lap top works great with my new camera. So let’s see how far I can get tonight. 

Wish me Luck!
Jolene
P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
