Just Scor-It !

Today over  at Practical Scrappers they have a list of 9 things you can do with your scoring tools.  I use both the  Scor-Pal and Martha Stewart’s  Scoring board.   Here is the layout that I turned in to Practical Scrappers, please check out their site to view the other great ideas.  The team of crafters over at Practical Scrappers are so talented and I love their ideas for today’s post.

What have you done with your scor-pal lately?  I love to hear from you, so feel free to leave a comment any time.

My niece and nephew.
I created the back ground with my scor pal, then sanded the scored areas.

This is an old layout I did. I created the white score lines in the back ground, for texture and a denim jean look.

Glitz Spring Banner

I recently made a post about loving the new Pretty in Pink collection from Glitz Design.   Since I love it so much, I decided to make another banner for my Scrap It Girl shop.  This banner is made using the Pretty in Pink Paper Collection and 4 pieces of Canvas from Canvas Corp… I used the canvas for 2 of the banners and the 2 mini hearts.  The Giant Rhinestones in the center of my rosettes are from the Pretty in Pink Collection.  The rope is from May Arts & my clothes pins are from my stash.  I used my favorite glue from the Rubber Cafe.  Thanks for checking out my SPRING TIME banner.  If you want some of this collection and live near me.. stop by I sell this product in my shop.

New Year’s Giveaway & 6 years ago…

Happy New Year!

Today I am working on my Bucket List, To Do list, and my New Year Resolutions list.  While thinking about what I want to accomplish in 2012 I started to think… how did I get where I am?

6 years ago I was a proud owner of my own Live Trivia  business, which I owned for 7 years.  I sold my business and then for 10 months I tried to figure out what I wanted to do next.  I knew I didn’t want to  go work for someone after owning my own business , so I had to start another business.   I knew that I wanted another job where I was working with  people all the time, sharing something that I loved doing, and being creative at the same time.  Hosting Trivia was so much fun, so my new job had to be fun too!   I also knew that my new business had to be something I could do no matter where I lived.

I had to think about what I enjoyed doing and how I could make it into a full-time job.  I was a mother, wife, and a scrapbooker.  That’s it, I love Scrapbooking!  Hello,  Scrap It Girl!  The name of my business made sense at the time since while owning my trivia business I was known as Trivia Girl, no one knew my real name.  I figured it worked for 7 years, I would try it again.

So here I am in 2012 starting my 5th year as Scrap It Girl.  I am doing what I love!  I am crafting everyday, designing for a few local stores, writing a few crafty articles for my favorite online site PaperCrafters Corner, and I am teaching all kinds of craft classes at 6 different locations.

So if you don’t mind I am a little excited for this New Year to get started! I have big plans for my 5th Year  and I can’t wait to share it with all of you.  Let’s start out with 4 giveaways in January, followed by some prizes in February when I return from the Winter CHA in California and I turn 40!  Oh my…

Here is the 1st giveaway for 2012.  All you have to do is leave me a comment telling me what’s on your bucket list for 2012 and  subscribe to my posts, all you need is an email address.
