Scrapbook pages created in 2019

Here are some of the scrapbook pages I created this year.  I hope these inspire you to create your own!

Looking for your input

Look forward to the new year and looking for ideas. What would you like to see here at the Inspiration Station? What type of classes or products would you like to see offered? Also, do you like to see project inspiration posts? I do a lot of creating but only post the things that we have current product for. Would you like to see things even if the papers or things are older or not available, or does that frustrate you if those items are no longer available? I often look to other peoples work for ideas but don't need to use the same products so it rarely bothers me if something is older but I know others want exactly what they see so I have hesitated posting a lot of my work. Let's hear from you.

New Mosaic Moments Pages

I had a chance this week to play with the Mosaic Moments Horizon Die set so I wanted to share my creations.  I love the way they turned out.  I think these dies are perfect for outdoor photos of different events. 

The first page is from our whale watch in Provincetown, MA and used paper and embellishments from Kaisercraft.

The next is from a trip I took with friends several years ago to Animal Kingdom.  The base paper is an old Bo Bunny line and the embellishment were cut from a Graphic 45 paper.

I hope you like them!  Please leave a comment below to let me know what you think.  Thanks for stopping by.

Supplies students need for each class:

I have come to realize just how many different adhesives there are out there! Some of the things that hold people back in their creating is not having the right tools for what they are trying to create. When a store carries the few adhesives I recommend they do sell a lot of product because I demo it and explain the benefits. They also tend to sell more Lawn Fawn because people had a fun, un-stressful experience creating their cards aka not fighting with their adhesive choices 

Tombow Mono Dots Adhesive Runner: or something comparable, not a tape runner, please carry dots

Quickie Glue Pen: I prefer this one for the detail glittering we do. The Zig 2-way glue pen tends to be too wet, and not detail enough. I will also explain when I like to use this and when I like to use the Lawn Fawn Glue Tube.

3M Mounting Tape: I use this instead of pop dots. I explain in my classes how it is more affordable, its easier to work with (doesn’t stick to scissors, you can rip it, and the backing is easy to peel etc.)

Detail Scissors: I love the Fiskars Micro-Tip Scissors

1/8″ double-sided tape: Lawn Fawn now carries this tape and it is fabulous! A great price point, and made in the USA! This is required for each student to have in order to put together the interactive cards

Lawn Fawn Glue Tube: I will go over the best times to use this adhesive and how it actually makes creating cards easier 

EK Tools Craft Tweezers: People find them helpful with the small pre-stamped/cut pieces
