Fantabulous Storage ideas.

Heya Scrappers,
While unpacking from camp mojo I took the opportunity to rearrange some of my overflowing flairs, washi tape and stencils.
Here's what I did with minimal help from the man
 I bought magnetic sheets from spotlight, I just reused some broken frames and BAM I recycled and have two empty glass jars. Plenty of room to buy more too. 😒 VERY important!
 TWO hooks And a Length of dowel. I did get the Masculine one To use his screwdriver because it's nice To let Them help sometimes and hey presto more empty Glass jars. Plenty of room for More 😒 VERY IMPORTANT

This was tricky. How do I let Them air after drying Without taking Over The kitchen rack. Move over scrap mags I used My Mag holder I got From office works. And I Leave them In My spray box. Lots of room for more 😒 VERY IMPORTANT

So it's a Start hey. And It looks fabulous if I don't say so Myself. Time to Get creative now.

Stay Scrappy

It's been awhile

Hi Scrappers,
It's been awhile since blogging. Though not scrapping. I was lucky enough to attend camp mojo in the Hunter Valley.
I'm working full time now too so Omg HOW am I going to keep this up? (Barocca and wine)

I'm going to show you a bit from one from the camp classes and one from home.
 This is a Lisa Oxley inspo. I think I went nuts on stamping so I think I'll try it again another day but look at the layers!
And this is me beginning my love affair with gelatos.
Don't mind the bad photography. It's not like I have the time to take good ones. For now at least
Im going to get my creativity back to priority.
Stay tuned to the rest of camp mojo fun
Stay scrappy
AJ

Jot Magazine Mood Board - Everyday

Hello There,
As I previously posted I was overwhelmed with the inspiration that Jot magazine produced this month.

In my most recent nap time I whipped up this little number for the mood board they have going this month

I made this out of scraps even the back page is a bit of card board from a delivery. I was so tempted to layer up. But I kept coming back to basics to let the photo speak for itself.
Its not perfect but i love it anyway. Scrappers dont make mistakes we just originally create

Stay classy
Amy

All Dressed Up

Hello There,

Materials used - Glitz Designs Dapper Dans Collection and American Crafts Thickers.


I've been suffering from a scrappers block recently. I have a few mojo unblockers that usually work let me share with you.
1. Go on a crop at my local store. www.shopandcrop.com.au All those inspiring layouts around me and giggling with my scrapping gal pal Nicole USUALLY gets the juices flowing. Not this time I fell flat and went home earlier than I planned.
2. When Happy Mail comes. I get such inspo from my subscription to a piece of cake designs. www.apeiceofcakedesigns.com.au Raquel's kits are fabulous I get to play with products that i don't usually find in Australia. I opened that kit and looked at it for a week.
3. Cleaning the house. Nothing like not having any mothers guilt to deprive you of your 'me' time. My cupboards are clean and organised but that still didnt spark the inspo. JEEZ what can I do.
& 4. flipping through a scrap magazine. I love a few mags but this month's favourite was Jot Magazine www.jotmagazine.com. I dont know if you have ever seen it but this months editor note was enlightening and shows me that sometimes you have to take a leap to get your dream. As my favourite JotGirl always says grab a cuppa and have a look. Now Im all buzzed and ready to play in my office. #BRINGONNAPTIME

Rough and Tough - Scrap the Boys

Hey hey,

I thought while my boys trash my lounge room I would post this LO for Scrap the Boys blog

No literally look
 

 

sometimes you just got to breathe and let it happen.
 
Had some fun with mixed media, for this grungy look.
 
 
I enjoyed getting as messy as my Eli did that day in the dirt.
 
 
 
now maybe I should start on tidying that mess.
 
You stay classy scrappy ladies
 
Amy xoxo

We R Memory Keepers

Hello Scrapaholic Bloggers,

We all love Teresa Collins right?! This is my play with Teresa Collins. I don't memory keep/project life etc for everyday. Just too much for me but I do like having an opportunity to use all the photos you take of an event or holiday. Which scrapbooking can tend to limit. So four pages using my favourite brand is shared below;

Harrington 2012
Materials used-Teresa Collins We R Memory Keepers Cards and Summer Stories Collection, American Craft thickers, Piece of Cake Flairs.
Tip - If you use clear envelopes or even just recycling small embellishment packets for sequin pockets

Beautiful Boy-
Materials used - Teresa Collins Summer Stories collection, Wood veneer and feathers from Shop and Crop.com

Tip-You don't have to use stencils for paint only. I used Teresa Collins stencil for my stitched title
 A Day in Sand/Dirt-
 Materials used Teresa Collins We R Memory Keepers Cards, MME Lost and found Collection, Kaszazz rub ons, American Craft Thickers
 






Tip-Don't be afraid to go outside the pocket when creating

Ok So Ill See you soon but keep tabs because I may have some exciting news regarding a certain favourite Scrapbook Magazine and one of my layouts. I cant say yet but stay tuned

You Stay Scrappy
