I'm very excited to show you all my steampunk mini album. It's a very fitting end of summer celebration for me. I get to go back to school later today and I'm not happy about that! But I'll try to make the best of it and sneak in some time to craft ;) Inside, the album is decorated with as many gears and movable parts as I could include. Each page or set of pages has a theme and they're based on photos that my husband took during our summer trip. He takes beautiful, interesting pictures of random things. I've been wanting to do a mini album for a while with those pictures.Of course there are many more pictures than I can fit in one album, but these are some of my favorites. What did I use? The album is from Maya Road and the stickers are dazzles from Hot off the Press .I used lots of Tim Holtz sprocket gears, game spinners, ball chain and locks & keys. Also used Maya Road trinkets flower elements, Distress inks in tea dye and antique linen(ribbon), Ta

I think it's so sweet when people think of me when they receive a blog award. Thank you, Pendra for thinking of me and giving me this: With this award come 12 questions. It's so fun because you get to know your fellow bloggers just a little bit better. Here we go.... Q1) Name your favorite color?      Purple and yellow and green. Crafters rarely choose just one color, right? Q2) Name your favorite so ng?       Can't Stop by the Red Hot Chili Peppers The video is inspired by one minute of sculptures by Erwin Wurm . It's not just junk ;) Still the video is not my favorite, but the song is. Q3) Name your favorite dessert?      Gelato! chocolate, pistachio and hazelnut/chocolate flavors. Q4) What wizzes you off at the moment?       Some parents of the newer generations who are not teaching their children manners or respect. Q5) Your favorite pet?       I have 3 dogs and I used to have 3 birds :( I love both, dogs and birds. Q6) Black or White?

Hello! What a weekend! I went to Vegas for the weekend to celebrate my friend's birthday. We had a blast and even managed a visit to Death Valley on the way back. It was super HoT and I don't know how we managed in Death Valley. But we made it and we're back! We did the zip line on Fremont street and it was pretty cool. I start school again next week and it was a great way to celebrate the end of summer ;) I have to find the pictures for you guys and I will post them soon. Now for the winners of my rose ribbon candy: I gave everyone a number and used random.org to get 3 numbers.
