Tissue Paper Skirts

I found this idea for making tissue paper skirts on the 7Gypsies blog. I LOVE 7Gypsies. They're one of my top 5 favorite scrap supply companies.

Anyway, I thought this was the cutest idea, and I can't wait to try it once I'm back in my usual scrapping environment! I swear I have some weird thing about paper dolls, LOL. Even as an adult, I love them!

Going Pink, Orange & Green!

I'm on vacation, so I don't have my usual scrap supplies with me. But, I did get my blog post for Basically Bare completed late last night while my sister-in-law was watching the baby.

I worked with some products I picked up during my visit with Jen yesterday - I think that was the longest I've ever spent in Michaels, lol! However, I got out of my usual color palette and picked summery colors of bright pink, orange, and bright green. I even used bling, something I hardly ever do.  :)

The flowers, hearts, tabs (which are actually pennants), and cupcake are all from Basically Bare. For close up photos, check out the Basically Bare blog post.

More Vintage!

While I love reading other blogs from scrappers, altered artists, etc., it's also a dangerous thing for me. I end up finding other products, websites, blogs that inevitably lead me to products that I HAVE TO HAVE. :D

Case in point: Vintage Street Market. I don't remember how I found out about the site - probably from one of the Basically Bare team members, lol! In any case, I have to get this cool collection - the Family Fun Paper Kit! 

Amy and I were just talking about paper dolls the other night, when we spotted some in Walmart. I LOVED paper dolls as a child. Maybe that's why I'm infatuated with paper even as an adult, lol!

Must buy NOW...lol!   :D
