The joy of Music!

July 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment


Hi Everyone:

I never scrapped with music on until I joined a swap where everyone was talking about creating an art piece to a music you like and see how it inspire you..

Since then I’ve created several types of cd’s for different moods while I’m creating..

I was on Dawn blog when I discovered this luvely cd holder that will be great for my growing collections..

Use your stash, and stamping your sentiments and colours.. to suit your needs…

Do you listen to music when you create? what kind of music do you listen to?

Have a great day,

Maggie

Hi Everyone:

When you are in a rush and need to create a quick card.. quick doesn’t have to be boring….

I created this card in less than 5 mtes, by stamping the sentiments and punching the butterflies..

There are times I’m looking for the perfect ribbon to go with my lay out and cards…Sometimes I omit them for lack of matching.

I was on Nicole’s blog when I found this fun tut on how to create a bow using paper..

Isn’t that brilliant? and so easy to make as well..

Here’s the tutorial BOW

I would love to see your tips and tricks leave us a message..
