New Poll

I have put a new poll on the blog. It is located on the bottom right side of this blog. It is about your favorite adhesive.

I feel like giving somemore things away. I have a couple of things to give away like maybe a t-shirt and something from ranger. Who knows, I may throw something else in from making memories again. Leave me a comment and I will pick a few winners on Sunday. Good Luck!

You know you are a scrapbooker if you:

You know you are a scrapbooker if you:
1. Use cardstock to select the paint colors in your home.
2. End up with bits of paper stuck to your shoe.
3. Own a red eye pen
4. Approach every event as a scrapbook layout
5. Photograph your child in a particular outfit because it coordinates with patterned paper.
6. Look at every item in your junk drawer as a possible embellishment
7. Can spot a new paper collection immediately.
8. Think that hybrid is something other than a type of plant.
9. Carry your camera in your purse at all times.
10. Dream of an organized well stocked scrap space.

I saw this on someone else's blog and thought if was funny. I just wanted to pass it on to you. We received Karen Foster farm animals, golf, construction, hunting in on Tuesday. Angela told me that Molly and Mac came in today. She said that it was awesome. I will post pictures soon. Have a good day.

Tim Holtz Idea-ology products

Technique Thursday

Quite a few of you all asked about the Tim Holtz make n take. I decided to take my make n take apart and walk you through how he had us put his products together. He is so awesome. Wished I had part of his brain. He comes up with the best projects.

Here are all the products we used in his make n take. We used his spinners, sprokets, fasteners, swivel clasps, chain, jump rings, and philosophy tags or muse tokens.

Take the philosophy tags or muse tokens and 2 of his jump rings. Open the jump rings one by one and thread them through the philosophy tags hole and close the jump rings.
Get your swivel clasp and open it. Push and then pull open. Take your philosophy tag or muse token with the jump rings and put it through the swivel clasp and close it.

Now take your spinner and fastner, sproket gears. Take the biggest sproket gear and lay the smaller sproket gear on top. Then take the spinner and lay that on top of the smaller sproket gear. Take the fastner (brad) and push through all the holes.

Now take off the jump ring from the swivel clasp and then thread your brad through the hole in the swivel clasp.

Now take the jump ring with the chain and thread it through the top of the biggest sproket gear.

Now take your ball and chain and open it and run it through either jump ring through the chain.

There you go. Finished product.

There you go. Isn't this cool??? I want to make a bracelet with all this and oh earrings. We have these products at the store for you to make. Did i do ok with this step by step?
