Bookmarks....

Hello everyone!!! Hope all is well....I just  have to mention how beautiful the weather here in Seattle! The sun is up and that's all that matters :) . Perfect for Spring break, hopefully it will stay thru the rest of the week!  So, today I will share with you these bookmarks that I made!  I'm sure you have readers in your family.  These always comes in- handy all my nieces and my daughter are serious readers, my 2 boys not so much - but they can read! lol!! Here is what I made.

I used Clear Scraps 12X12 Acrylic Sheet, you can easily make  at least 6 bookmarks from it. I  cut 3 pieces of 7 X 2 then punch a whole on one end for ribbon (later) and now their ready to be embellished. Note; The best and only kind of glue to use with acrylics is the Zip Dry Glue.

One way of emebelleshing is by using paper. Cut 2 paper with  the same size. Adhere these papers on both sides of the acrylic. Smear some color on the bookmark and  Clear Scraps Expression Clear Word-Faith with Stazon ink pads.  

This is the fun one. Alcohol inks are always fun to used with acrylics specially if you love colorful projects.  The backing paper is by Pink Paislee-Indigo Bleu and  stickers by 7Gypsies.

And my favorite .......embellished with  Acrylic Dress Form ! I  use Pink Paislee - Christy Tomlinsons Designs and Hambly transparency.

Thanks for stopping by .............until next time!!!

Clear Scraps with Pink Paislee by Irene

Hi everyone! In conjuction with this Pink Paislee with Clear Scraps week, I would like to share some of my projects using an older line of Pink Paislee, which is "Sweetness". I really love the softness and sweet colors of this line. Above is a mini album which I've created using these papers with Clear Scraps chipboard brag bag.

Here are some details in it.

And here's a little close-ups on how I've done part of the title with the acrylic expression by Clear Scraps.

And for a little extra, here's another Send It Clear card which I've created using the same line of papers by Pink Paislee.

Hope you all like what I've shared today! Check back tomorrow for more projects featuring Clear Scraps and Pink Paislee by the Clear Scraps team!

At this moment, the Pink Paislee design team are also sharing some projects using Clear Scraps products. Go on over to Pink Paislee's blog to check them out!

Laughter The Best Medicine!

 it's infectious, it is far more contagious that any cough sniffle or sneeze :) . It is a powerful remedy to;  stress, pain and conflict, nothing works faster to bring your mind and body back to balance than a good laugh. Laughter is simply happiness.  Today I will share with you this layout I made of my beautiful Mom.  She is truly our laughter, she takes life as it comes and with an open arms. She is my hero :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Here are the supplies I used:

Clears Scraps Sm. Expression - Laugh -

One of my favorite technique to do with acrylic expressions is simply using Stazaon. I love that it does not loose transparency even with colors. Plus it fast and easy :)

                                       Clear Scraps XL Deco Shape

 I love these Acrylic Shapes, It just give my pages a more complete look. :) 

Oher supplies used are; Pink Paislee Papers and stamp, Prima Flowers, Martha Stewart Punch, Stazon ink pads, Hof3 Printables.

Hello and happy new year everyone! Today I will share with you this album/kit. This was a class Clear Scraps offered  at  the CK convention in Wa.. Almost everything you see here was included in the kit, except for picture of course :) and few embellishements that I added to complete my album. It was an awesome class and really glad that I was there :)! We used the  Clear Scraps Mixable 8X8 Lacey Album.

Hello, so are you ready for Christmas yet. I sure hope so!! It's me Adora,  today I will  share some more of my  Christmas projects and today is about home decor.  Just a small frame to go on top of  my fireplace.  I made a calendar project several months ago using the Clear Scraps 6X6 Calendar kit  but I did not get to use the clear 6X6 book stand it came with  (I did not find it in the package until the enire project was done) :) ! and so I get to use it for this project. It's the perfect frame for  a Christmas message I think.   Here is my project and supplies I used: Clear Scraps Clear N Chip , Pink Paislee Paper,Webster Pages Glittered CB alpha, My Minds Eye Paper, House of 3 printables.

Have a Merry Christmas Everyone!!! Until next time!
