Scrapbook Layouts

I have been able to work on a bunch of scrapbook layouts. I will try to get some pictures of them and post them really soon. I am hoping to get this blog really going now that Christmas is over and I have a little extra time. Check back soon.

American Crafts

I just found a place that is having a great sale. Here is their web site. I was able to go and get 100 sheets of scrapbook paper for $6 or less. It is great. Anyone who is in utah they are having their sale until the 20 of the month. They are located at around 467 North 1500 West in Orem. They have paper, embellishments, stickers, rub-ons, ribbon, books, etc for a GREAT price. I wish I had a lot more money and I would go back and get a LOT more. I was able to get some christmas gifts from them. I can't wait to get a couple of other things done so I can play and get caught up with my scrapbooking and card making.

Blessing Quilt


This one is easy yet hard all in one. All you need is some white fabric that you like. Then you find your binding-I found a satin one I thought just really made the blanket. Now if you want to continue withe easy you can just sew with white thread top make squares or triangles. If you like a pattern, which is harder, you find the pattern you like and quilt it. Now the quilting can be easy if you know someone who has a machine. Or you can be like me and put the pattern on the blanket, the quilt it by hand. Yes I said by hand. It took me a little while, but I did not think it was that bad. I loved the way it turned out. If you want the stitches to show more you could find a colored thread you want. I just wanted mine all white.
