I'm on YouTube!!

LOL, I finally uploaded my first video on youtube. Of course it's me spending money...shhh don't tell anyone..yea right! I can't wait to start sharing my projects. Hope you guys have a chance to check out my channel paperdrama, of course. Besides blog surfing, facebook, yoville (you fb users know what i'm talking about), and watching youtube videos, I'm never gonna leave my computer!! The video quality isn't that bad and I was sooo not expecting to hear my voice sound the way it did. It's weird hearing what other people hear come out of my mouth. Hope I don't sound whiny, lol. Well subscribe to my channel you youtube users. I promise I won't let you down...I only want to inspire and share my enthusiasm for this thing I love called scrapbooking.

Coming Soon...

Hey guys! Here's a little sneak peek of a mini-album kit that I am putting together. These are some of the embellies that will be in the kit. Major bling. You can see some of the paper in the background but it doesn't reveal much, gotta keep the suspense, lol. I'll post a finished project using the kit. Anyways more to come, stay tuned.

Card Sketches Notebook

I got inspired by Kristina Werner from her MACM Card Sketch Book here. I downloaded her pdf file for the inside pages and used my Bind-it-All for the chipboard covers. The paper is from Jilibean Soup, alpha stickers are American Crafts and the cherry blossom embellishment stickers are from Jolee. I figured I should keep track of the cards that I make so that it's much easier for me to duplicate in the future. Enjoy!

"Fall Treats" Class

Hey Guys, just a reminder, if you are in the area I have a class at The Scrapping Lounge this Friday, Oct. 2nd (12pm-2pm). There are still some spots open, call today. Hope to see you there! Have a great Tuesday.

Sympathy Card

I recently lost my cousin in the Philippines, Adrian Yoro, R.I.P. You will be missed. I made this card with Stampin' Up!'s "Thoughts & Prayers" stamp set.

Pocket Cards

This past Saturday I had a crop at my house with my cousins. I made these cards for Thanksgiving and Birthdays. I just love the grey, orange color combo. The owl image is from Stampin' Up! "Forest Friends" stamp set.



I made a small version of this pocket card for birthdays to hold gift cards. Umm..for those who have a birthday in October (Abi) please act surprised when you see this card in the mail, lol.

Glimmer Fun

Today I was playing around with my glimmer mists after being inspired by watching this youtube video by pepsigirl4ever. Here is my take on her project using glimmer mist instead:







The glimmer mist colors that I used were: Tiger Lily, Cinder, Gold, Coffee Shop. The base is corrugated cardboard (a flap cut out of a cardboard box). I did a lot of embossed stamped images, all the flourishes, polka dots and the diamond pattern. White acrylic paint was used in the background and embossed with ultra thick embossing enamel. Besides owls, I love dragonflys as well. The dragonfly is a glimmer chip from Tattered Angels. It was sprayed with Tiger Lily and Coffee Shop, then distressed with Black Soot. The flowers are Prima and sprayed with glimmer mists. On the same youtube video you learn how to make the handmade flower, love it! The photo was distressed with Tea Dye around the edges. Add some rhinestones, pom-poms and call it done. This project was a lot of fun. I wish you could see it in person, I love how the light reflects against it with all the glimmer mists. This last photo was taken with the sun hitting it, hopefully it can capture some of the "wow" factor, lol. Enjoy!
