I had made this quick and cute scrapbook for my Manager Sue (who is so awesome) as a thank you gift for all that she has done to help my business grow. I knew she was moving soon and would want to get those pictures scrapped soon of her grandgirls. We had just attended a CKU scrapbooking class and I wanted to make one of these on my own too before I forgot how. I reinforced the back with an extra layer of Stampin' Up!'s Basic Black cardstock, since it is so thick. I knew that it would be enough and chipboard or boxboard would not be necessary. It will hold up to 12 4 x 6 pictures. I love this Halloween DSP. It is so elegant it could be used outside of Halloween. The pull out tags are 5 x 7. The accordians to hold them are 4 x 12. If you would like the dimensions and scoring measurements, drop me an email. I would be happy to mail them out to you.

Using Stampin' Up! cello bags, and the Sizzix Big Shot die, and a few other miscellaneous items, add chocolate and you have yourself a quick and nice Thank You gift.

More of the micro beaded pens. Adhere either DSP or stamped cardstock to pen using sticky strip. Paint pen with Crystal Effects, roll in micro beads. Set aside on foil (recommended) to dry overnight. Attach ribbons as desired. These are so cute and easy to make and are stunning looking. Great gift idea, cover a notebook to match.

This is just an inexpensive aluminum easel type frame that I had. The pheasant is on a magnet. You can just plop a picture on it and put the magnet on it to hold it. The swirl and the DSP were cut out using Big Shot dies.

I love this frame and is another piece that I change seasonally and tends to travel with me. It has 2 panes of glass. The M Decor Element is on the front pane and the Joy & Love Decor Element on the second pane. It looks so much better in person.

I love the saying on this Decor Element. I change it seasonally. It themes nicely with my Fall Pheasant table.

Another set up from another expo. Taken with cell phone under dark conditions. Sorry.

My Fall Pheasant Expo Table. Sock Monkey travels everywhere with me. She even has a Sock Monkey stamped scarf.

Stamps: Inks: Papers: Accessories: Same type of idea as the Pheasant notebook. I made this pen/notebook set for my mother's August birthday.

Stamps: Inks: Papers: Accessories: If I get the time I will populate the supply list. When I participate in expos/craft fairs, I like to have themed tables, either based on the event, season, or product promotion. For my fall table (Fall 2009), I fell in love with this DSP from Stampin' Up! I love turquoise/teal shades so it was no surprise to me. I used a 5 x 8 notebook. The pen is just your standard cheap ball point pen using sticky strip and cover with paper, paint on Crystal Effects and roll in micro beads. Let dry overnight. Add ribbon as necessary.

My Digital Studio Project! This was our 2009 Christmas photo card, printed 5x7. I completed the project in about 20 minutes, seriously, after I first opened MDS (My Digital Studio). It was so fast and easy and cute. The picture on the right was taken by a professional crawling the stands at a Twins game. Wish my daughter hadn't excused herself from the picture.
