Shhhh! A Sneak Peek of One of my NEW TWC Stencils!!

I know many of you have been asking about why they've seen so little of my work on my social media and my Youtube Channel lately.  Well, I've been busily making 8 NEW stencil designs for TCW (The Crafter's Workshop) for their upcoming new releases for the Winter CHA (Craft and Hobby Show).  And along with creating these fun stencils I've also created some projects to show how I would use these stencils.  

The stencils will be available by January 15th and will be shown at the Winter CHA (at the TCW booth along with a whole bunch of projects I made using them!)  As always they come in two sizes, 6x6 inches and 12x12 inches.  

This is just a little peek....can you tell I've had my mind on mosaics lately?  This project came together quick and easy. As soon as I get the go ahead I will be showing this project in full with lots of close-ups, tips and tricks and of course a full video tutorial on how I made it.

I will have more and more sneak peeks to share with you all as the CHA draws closer but before I leave you all today I just wanted to share one more bit of awesome news!  Did you know that TCW makes their own line of mixed media products now?  I was so very excited to get my hands on these beauties and give them a go....and boy, they did not disappoint!  I've absolutely been loving using them, I've pretty near emptied that thick Modeling Paste, a treat to work with!

I hope my little peek has whet your appetite for more because I've got lots more to share. It felt nice being able to just play again (I love designing products but I love using the products even more!).  

Thanks so much to all of you who have shown so much sweet support in your kind comments and in the use of the products I design....nothing gives me more pleasure than to see what others are doing with the products I put out there!  Looking forward to seeing what you lovely creative people out there will be doing with my newest designs!  Sending loads of love to you all! xo

NEW Kit & Video Tutorial {The Scrapbook Diaries}

When Janene sent me these adorable wood chippies I knew I had to make a fun kit out of it using some of my favorite Prills embellishments for The Scrapbook Diaries.  I used a cute photo of a bike for my page but the title and the pretty embellishments can work beautifully on a photo of a special person in your life as well.

Isn't that little wheel-barrow adorable! And it was so quick and easy to make!  In minutes you can make your own unique embellishment with items found in this kit.

I just love the scripty title chippie that comes with this kit too....it adds a pretty touch without taking over the page. The kit also includes the 'Postcards from Paris' stamp set I recently designed for The Scrapbook Diaries.  I thought the scripty writing, the postcards and Cone flowers added a pretty background design for this page, especially when used with the brown chalk ink (also included in the kit).

I have been itching to use this beautiful set of lilac/white blooms from 49 & Market and was happy to get to use them with the fun lavender chippies in this kit.  I added a little double hemp bow to make the corner accent on this page.

....And this adorable lavender wreath!  You're going to have so much fun making this page accent!  As always, I created  a full video tutorial with the kit to which you have unlimited access to, to help you create your own special keepsake.  You can may your page exactly as shown or tweak the page to suite your own style.

You can order your kit today HERE at The Scrapbook Diaries!  As always it includes enough product to make extra bonus pages as well.  The kits are limited in number so be sure to get your's while they are still available.

I know you haven't seen a lot from me lately....but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy!  I've got 8 new stencil's I've designed for The Crafter's Workshop that will be coming out in the winter shows....I'll have lots of tutorials for fun projects to make with them, so stay tuned! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today, I always appreciate all the lovely comments and feedback! xo
