Zipper Flowers

Who would've thought you could make a flower out of a zipper?

JSI has even has zipper 'ribbon' by Maya Road. I coloured the ribbon using various colours of Perfect Pearls and then went to:

to make the flower. Give it a try!

p.s. Happy Halloween

A Sweet Card

Based on an idea I saw in a magazine - Beautiful Cards maybe? I know, I have to get better at writing down sources. Used real lifesavers. I challenge you to make a sweet card by using real candy and send me a pic. Have a lovely day!

Happy Thanksgiving

A belated Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

This past weekend involved a bit of work at JSI, a little bit of football on Saturday, and a whole lot of turkey on Sunday. We got to spend part of the weekend up at the cabin and the weather for the most part was awesome. Most of the leaves are gone now so glad I was able to catch this picture a few weeks ago of our place aka our treasure.





Note: materials used were from the Bo Bunny Forever Fall Collection.

I'm bacccckkkkk!

Well, after a long absence I now have incentive to make regular contributions to my blog. My boss Ralna at 'Just Scrap It' here in Saskatoon has recently added my blog address to our site. Yikes! It is hoped I would inspire others to come in to the store and make some cards and pages. So, here goes...

Card using tim holtz die, stickles, a little texture template, and a scrap of patterned paper that was under the counter. :) The label is meant to be 'wet' looking. No, did not spill my drink on it.

Till next time ...
