Today is a gift

I recently picked up the new Here & Now collection kit from Echo Park and I couldn't wait to get started playing. I love the bright vibrant colors and all the patterns. I got out my spray mists the other day and here is what I came up with.

Keep Your Eyes on the Stars..

Hi Everyone,

I hope that your week is off to an amazing start. I just came back from a fun retreat that I went to this weekend with Suzy West and we had a fun time together embossing with WOW!

I just picked up the new CHA embossing glitters, and let me tell you they are fabulous! For my layout I played with Campri & Soda, and Mojave. Totally in love with them both.

Fun with Epiphany

So.... last weekend I worked at the Sacramento Scrapbook Expo at the Epiphany Crafts booth. Have you seen Epiphany Craft's products? You can create your own custom epoxy shapes with their shape studio tools and your own acrylic buttons with their button studio tools. These things are so much fun to play with and so versatile too!

The Epiphany Crafts booth at the Expo:



I loved the Epiphany tools so much that I took them with me to a fun crop that I was working on Sunday for Canon



The Ladies got to take turns trying out all the different Epiphany tools!


So fun!


Everyone loved them, and wanted to order them immediately!





I decided to use Epiphany Crafts shape studio tool to make fun epoxy's for 2 layouts that I was working on.




those epoxy shapes are so fun. Love how you can customize them to coordinate with your pages.
