Covention Swaps 12 x 12 group 1

Sorry I’ve been missing in action we’ve had internet problems and I’ve had camera issues, but I’m back and with some fabulous swaps form convention. The last group I did was 12 x 12 pages. There were actually two group for this one. Because there are so many I’m going to break them up in 4 groups. So enjoy!

There is no particular order here and I will try and let you know who did each one (hopefully they are all marked.)  Thanks again to everyone who participated all of the pages are great.   I’ve already used some for Club and I’m looking forward to adding pictures to them.

First up is mine.  I used the awesome Awash with Flowers Set.  It’s hard to tell but the flowers are done with a fun technique that gives you a water color look even though it’s a solid stamp.

This page is so fun and so cute.  In fact I used it for club last month.  With just one change.  Her cute sand is actually made with real sand paper.  I created it with the awesome log cabin spray.  I just love all the fun punch art on this page as well.  It was created by Natalie Cottle.

Can I say I’m in love.  This page is adorable.  It was made by Melanie Williams and she would say it’s a little Cheese.  I would have to agree.  The cheese is so cute I love how easy it is to make just using all of our different circle punches.  Plus doesn’t the hamburger just look good enough to eat.  She even added texture to the bun by using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.

Back from Convention

I’m back from Convention and so excited to share everything with you.  Convention was fabulous as usual.  Of course there were tons of great ideas.  I did my swaps again this year so I thought I would share them with you.  I was in charge of three different swaps this year: a fabric swap using the Big Shot, a 3D swap and a 12 x 12 Double Scrapbook Layout.  So far I have the fabric swaps up so you can check them out.  Just image how much fun you could have making these projects with your own Big Shot.  I’d love to show you how just give me a call, plus you can check out all these great projects in person.

To see the fun swaps just click here. You can also find them under Samples-Swaps-Convention 2010.  Check backs so to see the great Hostess Promotion as well as the other swaps I got.

From paper to fabric

So I just had to share this fun quilt I made for my little boy.  He loves Elmo and so I was looking at the cute sweat treat cups that I made using Elmo, Big Bird, Oscar and Cookie Monster.  Then I remembered the technique I just learned of how to create larger fabric squares and circles.

So first of all here are the sweet treat cup inspirations.

Now here’s my quilt.  My little one just loves it.  Of course all the faces were cut out with the big shot.  I eve cut the fun square with the big shot.

To cut a big square or circle all you have to do is fold your fabric and make sure that it is inside the cutting area before running it through the Big Shot.  Then voila you have an awesome large square or circle.  I want to try making a blanket with the large scallop squares the same way that I made the fun baby quilt.

So here’s the dies I used in case you want to try your own:

113468 Scallop Circle $19.95

114533 Clear Circle $19.95

115950 Scallop Square $21.95

114529 Circles #2 $15.95

113483 Pennant $39.95

If you would be interested in having your own fabric demonstration please let me know.  I’d love to come and show you and your friends how easy it is to create fun projects out of fabric and paper with our Big Shot.
