Hello!

So it's been a couple of weeks since my last post here. I cant say I've been busy...I've been LAZY is what Iv'e been. Not creating much, therefore putting me in a "slump"...Time to SNAP OUT OF IT! I need to get to work. I have lots of ideas...just no motivation. I'm thinking of buying some new patterns, maybe that will help. New things to play with usually does! I'm off to cook supper, then to scrap some, working on a few little Christmas items...I'll be sure and post some pics when I'm done.

Twilight inspired purse scrapbook album

This is a purse shaped scrapbook album. It includes a purse "case" and has an accordian style album that fits inside. These are made by 7 Gypsies. I absolutely love these!

This is the "strap" of the purse....it's actually a long necklace, I thought it'd be perfect!

A closer look at the front...

All unfolded...

Birthday girl

Here is just a few examples of my work. Some things are made from my own patterns and drawings, others are made using patterns from Tear A Bear Connection, Precious Piecings by Lisa, Lapulenta, Myscrapchick, and Doodlecuts.

Finally a minute to sit and share!

Happy Labor Day weekend everyone! I've had a busy one, hope you've all had great weekends so far! I am currently creating a little scrapbook album for my son Skyler's pre K class...they have a project they are doing and a new friend in class named "Buddy Bear". Buddy gets to go home with a different child every night, and we are supposed to write down what we do with Buddy, and take pictures of our adventures. So I thought I'd make his teacher a scrapbook album to host Buddy's pictures with the kids. So...between climbing laundry mountain, watching football, and scrapping that's been the extent of my weekend.

I really need to get in gear and create some things to sell on ebay, as well as start on the 4 custom Twilight album orders I've got. But with just coming home from a 2 1/2 week vacation, and starting my son in school, I'm easily distracted at the moment. I'm hoping that the new shipment of supplies I've got coming will be some added motivation to get started. New things to play with always helps. I have been trying to convince my DH that I really need SCAL as well as the big bite...my expression machine just isnt enough nor is my regular cropodile...since I've started making more albums than anything it just makes more sense...it has a much longer reach than the regular one.

Hello and Welcome!!

Hello! I'd like to welcome you all to my new blog...I am Jen Beard of DazzleYouDesigns...formerly CreativeMommieDesigns. I recently had a "falling out" with my former scrap business partener so I've changed my name and gone out on my own. I do have a current blog on here under the old name, if you had me on your following please add this blog as well, since I will no longer be posting on the first one.

I am a 33 year old SAHM, married to my husband Brian of five years. We have one son together who is 4, and I have a daughter who is 13. I've been scrapbooking close to two years now, and I absolutely LOVE it! My favorite things to make are Tear Bears, and albums. My favorite themes are Vintage, Christmas, and Twilight inspired altered art memory albums (i'll post some pics later!). I am the creator of my OOAK Twilight albums, featuring my very own APPLE shaped and WOLF/MOON shaped covers.

I just recently returned from a nearly 3 week vacation down in South Texas at my mother in law's and one week on the Carnival Conquest cruise line, in the Caribbean!! We went to Jamaica, Cayman Islands, and Cozumel, Mexico. We had the absolute time of our lives!! I will be sure and post some fun pics of that too!

I look forward to meeting lots of new people, so if you like what you see here please let me know. I sell on ebay under brianbeard79 and also take custom orders at dazzleyoudesigns@gmail.com
