My scrap/art space is where I feel free to create and dream.   This is where I feel most uninhibited— most carefree.  It is my haven and personal sanctuary.

Where do you feel the most comfortable, relaxed, happy, energized, and free to be YOU?  I challenge you to scrap about YOUR space!  It doesnt have to be a scrapbook room. It doesn’t have to be any room, for that matter!  It can be a park bench, your back yard, the beach, or any SPACE in the world that you consider to be your personal safe haven.

Materials Used: GCD Studios Papers,Thickers Alphabet, and Chipboard accents by Scrapworks- Magpie Collection, and Mod transparency by Hambly, sewing machine.

 I just finished a 6×6 clear album from Scrapworks featuring my adorable son, Tristan.  ( I am a little biased, but he is one awesome little dude!)  This was my first time to use one of the transparent albums and I must say that I am hooked!  This was so much fun to make and I absolutely love the depth created by the all the layers!  My husband, who only sees ”crap” in scrap thought this album was cool.  LOL!  Okay… he is not that bad, but it sounded pretty witty, uhh?  :)   Anyway… I am just saying that alot of people seem to be intimidated by these clear albums and I say JUST DO IT!  You will love it!  So what if a little adhesive shows?  Get wild and crazy and throw caution to the wind!    

Here are the materials and links to purchase the items I used for my album:
Materials used: Crate Paper - Static Collection Papers, Die Cuts, Rub-Ons and Brads; Basic Grey Wholy Cow Rub-ons & Buttons, Thickers Alphabets, Hambly Overlay Mod Brown and Urban Chic White : Scrapworks Acrylic Album 6×6 -Tabbed square

Every week a winner is selected by random draw from that weeks participants and then post the winner mid-week.  What is so adorable is that “the little boy” holds up the winner’s name and a picture is taken.  It is adorable! I was thrilled to see him holding my name!  Thank you cute little boy!

Check out what I won!  The gift is coming from Scarlet Lime who was the sponsor of the week’s Creative Therapy Catalyst.  This is one of their awesome monthly kits from May!  Can you believe all the stuff in this kit?  Christy Tomlinson (the owner of Scarlet Lime) was so generous to donate the prize!  Thank you ma’am!  Can’t wait to play with the goodies!

If this kit has you drooling, like it does me… go check out Scarlet Lime and if you are in need of a prompt or challenge to get your creative juices flowing, go check out Creative Therapy!

 I discovered this song by FlyLeaf, called There for You.   There is a verse in this song that perfectly describes what I hear when I see the beauty God created for his children.
