The October kit from The Paper Niche

WoW I had so much fun playing with this months kit from The Paper Niche
All the yummy Prima papers and embellishments really inspired me. The piece of canvas was just totally fun, I used it to print pictures and to make flowers

Here is the pages I did with this months kit

The picture here is printed on the canvas and the flowers are made from the canvas, colored with distressing ink and then covered with Glossy accents

This paper was so pretty I just added some flowers and ribbon to the page, The butterfly is one of the Hambly stickers with some stickles added, The flowers are covered with Crackle accents

Here I played with the pretty stamp, the butterfly sticker got some alcohol ink and stickles, and the large rose on the paper got Crackle accents and alcohol ink

Here I just clustered up all the pretty flowers and the Prima leaves, again the paper is so pretty i want to show it of

4 pages with all new products

Not much time for blogging, but have had some nice scrapping time, and a lot of new products to play around with. All the products are from and are available at The Paper Niche

This first page I did as inspiration for the ''Inspiration challenge'' at SBE , I used the new Jenny Bowlin papers and alpha stickers

This page I did as inspiration for the monthly challenge at SBE, using the new Barcelona papers from 7 Gypsies and bunch of different embellishments and stamps.

Here is a list: Papers and ribbon from 7 Gypsies, letters from Basic Grey & Jenny Bowlin, Prima bling and flowers, envelope, tag and chipboard shapes from Maya Road. Hambly overlay, McGibbs wing punch, Stamps from Crafters secrets, alcohol inks, distressing inks and metal embellishments from Tim Holtz, Jenny Bowlin bingo card and ticket

Here I have used papers from Creative Imagination and Bazzill. The shells are covered with Crackle accents and Perfect pearls. The tag and metal starfish is from American Tag Co.

Yesterday was my baby's 10th birthday...Cant believe it is 10 years since we brought this little boundle home. Time just flies way to fast.

I snapped this picture of her at the front porch while she was waiting for her friends to come over for some fun and cake... It was as if the new Webster papers was made for it. I also used one of the new Tim Holtz stamp sets and embellishments from Maya Road, Tattered Angels and Zva.

In October we have both Marah Johnson and Nikki Sivils coming to the Paper Niche to teach classes, how awesome is that. Today I had my first day of for a while and got together with my friend Lyn and our melting pots again. Today's medium was Utee..It did not quite end up as we planned, I think we both where a little bummed when we called it a day, but we learned and know what to do different the next time we play.
Here is what I made today. The first two is with stamped images and alcohol ink. The last group is made with Graphic 45 paper and some trinkets

Just have to show you

What my daughter Amanda (10) was up to yesterday while I was working on a page for the store. We watched a YouTube video of Tim Holtz using his refillable alcohol ink pen.She is just now learning how to do a little stamping. I handed her my re-inkers, water bottle, alcohol inks, blending solution and my pen. This is what she made. Even the bling got colored. WTG girl =)

Just a few days now until Orlando and CHA..It's going to be so much fun and I'm so excited about the Graphic45/TatteredAngels class. Promise to post lots of pictures. Amanda will have to part with her laptop while I'm up there :lol: Tomorrow we're having a crop at PaperNiche.. Caribbean night, Yummy.. LOVE Island food and the girls there are really fun to crop with, a perfect combo =)
