Cards and Scrapping
- New Fiskars Border Punches
Scrapbook.com was having a 40% off sale on the Fiskars Threading Water border punch last week so I jumped at the chance to own this hot new scrapbook punch. At the same time, I decided to get the Fiskars Lacy Days of Summer border punch since I wanted to get that one anyway. The punches [...]
- Work in Progress
Work in Progress, originally uploaded by krisalis903. I can’t take complete credit for this layout. Huge thanks to Jenn for introducing me to the wonderfulness that is Becky Fleck’s Pagemaps. I just about died when I saw that there were pagemaps available for download for FREE. I’ll never create another scrapbook layout without them. I [...]
- Get Well with Fun & Fast Notes
Get Well with Fun & Fast Notes, originally uploaded by krisalis903. What a weekend. I really needed it though because I was really lacking some R&C (rest & creativity). I finally got around to unpacking my stuff from the retreat earlier this month. Yes, you heard that correctly. My craft supplies were still packed from [...]
- Welcome to my Sickness!
Welcome to my Sickness!, originally uploaded by krisalis903. So I have seen the dark side… and I discovered I actually kinda like it! This is one of my finished pages and my favorite so far. I do like scrapbooking so far, but boy, it’s definitely more frustrating than making cards that’s for sure. I mean [...]

- Nestabilities!!! (Yes, They’re That Awesome I Have to Use More Than One Exclamation Mark)
Nestabilities!!, originally uploaded by krisalis903. YES!! They arrived earlier than I expected! Nevertheless THEY’RE HERE. I’m so excited. Unfortunately in all my excitement I completely forgot to buy the tan embossing mat, but that’s ok. I should be able to pick it up at my local scrap store tomorrow. I’M SO FREAKIN EXCITED!!
- 12 Whole Days and Counting
Ribbon Weave Card, originally uploaded by krisalis903. I’m really excited about this year’s scrapbook retreat at the Lakeshore Lodge. Honestly it’s been a couple months since I’ve sat down at my craft table and done crafty things so it’ll be nice to just get away and spend time with friends and craft away. I’ve started [...]
- Craftmemo.com No More?
What happened to Craftmemo.com? I was going to update my inventory when I discovered the host wasn’t resolving. Gone for good? That makes me sad.
- My First Layout!!
My First Layout!!, originally uploaded by krisalis903. So I made my first attempt at scrapbooking this weekend. This was the second meetup I went to at The Scrapbook Barn and I had a great time. The crop room was pretty packed that night. I only wished I could’ve met all of the members of the [...]
- Unmounting My Rubber Stamps Update
Nice and Neat, originally uploaded by krisalis903. Several weeks ago I began the task of unmounting my rubber stamps. It’s been a pretty easy albeit time consuming process, but the rewards are well worth the effort. I have about 22 stamp sets total, all of which I kept in a 12×12 drawer that was intended [...]
