Coffee Creations! (aka...my work!)

Here are a few things I've created on Canvas.

This first "HOME" canvas was created for the Project of the Month at work. It is inspired by several different Tim Holtz techniques. The entire design was created and sewn onto a 10x10 piece of cardstock and then adhered to the 10x10 canvas. The class was a huge success. My canvas was also used as advertising for Archiver's in June 2010.

I was having such a great time creating canvases, I created this next canvas as a gift for my daughter's Kindergarten teacher. She absolutely loved it. I hated to part with it....but she was an Awesome teacher. Thanks Mrs. Cummings!



















My "Family Time" canvas is a 12x12 canvas where I printed a picture of me and three of the four kids onto an iron-on paper. I ironed the image onto the canvas and then used Tim Holtz distress inks to add color to the canvas.




















At work we recently were given a task by the home office to come up with a Printer's Tray idea. Our store put our brains together and came up with the idea of a "kitchen" themed tray. I was asked to get it done! Viola! Here it is! I had such a great time making this, I can't wait till Christmas....I guess everyone will know what they're getting this year!

PageMaps RW Laser Cuts Chipboard Contest

Ahhhh.....another PageMap challenge. I am so addicted to these challenges now. But, this time no running out and spending a million dollars to complete the challenge. This time I added a little bit to the challenge for myself....NO SHOPPING! Oh no...what did I commit myself to? With the added stress of not being able to buy new stuff for this one.....off to my mini scrapbook store also know as "my closet" to round up some supplies to get this done, all the while remembering there was a color challenge too! YIKES! I once had a vision to complete a mini album that doubled as a cookbook for my 21 year old. Of course when I had the vision (I don't want to say how long ago it was...) I bought all the essentials, but never completed the project (go figure?). What a better time than the present to use those supplies. So, with this layout I used the Nana's Kitchen w/ Glitter stack by DCWV to get me started. I also wanted to use these pictures of my little one holding a slice

My Memory Suite sketch contest Can you believe it's been six months since I've posted anything....WOW!!!! Now that doesn't mean that I haven't been scrappin', it just means I haven't had the chance to put anything up online. Here's why. In April I was making meatloaf for dinner. I put all the ingredients into a mixing bowl and dove my hands into it to mix it all up....all of a sudden....WOOOOOOOOOWW!!!! I dislocated my thumb! Yep...popped it right out! Yes, it hurt! So...here I am several months later with my hand in brace, numbness and tingling starting from the tip of my fingers that radiates up my arm and finally fades away once it hits my clavicle. I had x-rays taken, a MRI and a nerve conduction test. And the diagnosis.... Severe nerve damage that will take up to a year to heal itself. A YEAR!!!! But, I avoided having surgery and it will, in time, heal itself. Ahhhh! So...my friends/followers...I'm back in action!
Page Maps Bella Blvd sketch contest So…I thought to myself…today (well actually yesterday since I’m posting this today) is National Scrapbook Day and I’m not going to scrap…WHAT????   Being that I am a die-hard scrapper, why not whip up a quick entry for the Bella Blvd sketch contest . This layout is of my FOUR children who without them I would not be the person I am today.   They have taught me more than any teacher could have done with a text book.   They have taught me how to love someone unconditionally, how to be patient without losing my mind in the process and they have taught me to take life as it comes.   I wish I could say that I had everything planned out in my life, but I’m much happier letting life take its course and I go along for the ride.   With Mother’s day just around the corner I hope that they realize what a joy it is to be their Mom. Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s out there!   I couldn’t imagine my life without these four very different and very b
