Here is the blinkie for the Last Serendipity Scrapper Contest- yes it's big-LOL

Basic Grey Porcelain card kit

The other night I sat down and made up the cards that come in the Basic Grey Porcelain card kit. I didn't go much off instructions- only used ink, stickles and some jewels to snazzy it up a bit. Thought you might want to see them, and some closeups. The kit is available in the Serendipity Scrapbooks store.

These were very easy to do, took less than 40 minutes while watching tv. Thanks for looking.

I'm Tweeting!!

Yep, Twitter is almost easier than Facebook. So if you twitter or want to see what's up come and visit me. you can search SerendipKristen and find me.

I love the prospect of new crafts and scrapbooking. I have been shopping lately at the Serendipity Scrapbook store and Joann's and Michael's for things I know I won't be getting or find other places.

Michael's has 2 Making Memories lines that MM is not offering to retailers, so I got some paper and embellies.

Currently I am working on a vision board, I have things written out and now to find images that will help support the written info. Anyone else do a vision board recently? I just posted this as a layout challenge in the forum this last week. A vision board that is VERY specific in wording and images (if possible) followed with a list in your planner is greatly helpful in achieving goals. If you have done this I would love to have you post what you did and did it help you?

Have a great day.

2nd paper layout in the last week!!

This took me a good week to do. I don't have a dedicated scraproom, and everything I own is put away. So I have to go through and fish for things. I generally don't use solid cardstock as a background, but I think this worked.

I used Daisy Bucket Playlist, Cherry arte Poolside chipboard, various buttons, Scenic route chipboard alphas, Making memories glitters alphas and tiny alphas, and even EK success alphas. I used some Gin X chipboard stars too and did a pigment powder dusting over a couple of them using perfect pearls medium and the powder.

The background texture was made from a loosley woven net type paper. I first tried using the perfect medium on it and press it onto the paper and dusted with the powder- unfortunately the powder didn't stand out as much as I liked. So I decided to paint onto the netting and press it onto the background paper over the perfect pearls and it stands out much better.

Thanks for looking. Playlist will be available on the 1st of March in the Serendipity Scrapbooks store sold individually and in a new kit.



Here is a digi I did as well. I love this shot of my DS- as he got older he was less animated and this is just fun. I used Jennifer Barrettes digital kit Lady Bugga available at Gotta Pixel and mixed some other fun digital items in.
