This is ME! The details Here and Now 2017! Freckled Fawn Challenge Entry! A Page from my Smashbook!

Freckled Fawn is celebrating it's birthday!  And I am super excited to be joining in on the fun! 
I LOVED the sketch they posted, and knew it would be perfect for my Smashbook!

I used Gesso to prep my page, water coloring and mists to make my background. I just love how it turned out!
100% of All my supplies are from Freckled Fawn!
I used the embellishments to make clusters, painted the wood veneer pieces, and followed the sketch.

I decided to use my latest photo, most of you noticed that this year I cut off my long hair! I was ready for a change and I love it!

My words pretty much sum up how I feel about life right now! 

Thank you for stopping over today!

Eyelet Outlet News!! Handmade Embellishment Clusters!

Hello Crafty Friends! I am so very excited for my first posting over at the Eyelet Outlet Blog! If you have watched my CKC hauls, you will know that I am addicted to the Eyelet Outlet brads, but I had NO IDEA all of the amazing other goodies they offer!  You can check out the store HERE!

And please come check out my project over at the Eyelet Outlet Blog! 

I really enjoy making embellishment clusters ahead of time, that way when I am crafting away I can just look through my all ready made clusters and add them to my projects. I already have a large bin of scrap die cuts, banners and shapes for layering then I build my base and then add my embellishments:

For my first embellishment:

Supplies used:
Scrap papers
The best is yet to come word sticker from Tim Holtz
Telephone, Silver Edge Pearl  brads from the Eyelet Outlet
Clear Jewels  and camera washi from the Eyelet Outlet

For my 2nd:

Scrap papers
DoubleClick Skittles: Slate
From the Eyelet Outlet:
Clear Jewels 
Pearl Silver Brads
Paper Flowers

And my 3rd:

Paper scraps
Bella Blvd cloud stamp:
From the Eyelet Outlet:
Glitter washi
Bird Brad
Jewel Bling Pink 
  
I don't have lots of time to craft, so while my supplies are out I take a look and see what I can create before I get started:

I added all of these washi tape embellishments to my projects, then I add any extras in a storage container for next time:
