Small keepsake scrapbook.

Made Krystel a small scrapbook of momentos for her birthday.

 Love makings small books like this

because they don't take a lot of time

and they are fun to make.

Scrapbooking Day at Paper Creations.

Yesterday I had the chance to take six classes during the day with my favorite paper designers : Bo Bunny, Echo Park and My Minds Eyes. It was such a treat to learn from them, to see how they work and what inspires them to create such beautiful paper. Most paper designers get a start in the textile world designing fabrics and from them they had made the leap into the fast growing world of scrapbooking and card making. It was indeed a wonderful day...

Happy Thanksgivings.~

So Blessed to have a great family and friends. For the simple things on life...This year we are not celebrating at home, we are going to the Little America for their Thanksgivings brunch. I'm looking forward to this and to be together as a family.

My red room...

In this room is where i spend my free time, creating fun things and getting away from the everyday responsibilities and work. We recently purchased this table and it goes so well with the room because it is so "artsy"...i love having a space for myself and for all my paper and trinkets...a very fun room indeed...

Journals.

Getting my journals ready for the Piper & Chloe show at the end of this month. http//piperandchloe.blogspot.com/ i was inspire this time by a bit of "french chic prettiness"

Just love for people to have a journal that will inspire them to write down their thoughts, dreams and sometimes just ideas that we don't want to forget.

A new year

A lot goes on for us in January as we have a break from school, birthdays celebrations and a new year in goals from work, education and some personal ones as well. i will like more time with David, more photography and keeping it simple as my life gets so busy with my work and community involvement through the year. My beautiful red room sits on perfect shape as nothing gets out of order as I'm not working on any current project...oh and there is so many ideas that i have in store for my "Red Room Creations" ...winter is a good time to scrapbook, to work on pictures, to get on the artistic crafty mode and to simplify...I'm including a picture of a book that I made for Cristine on her birthday to add her summer fun pictures of 09. The little scrapbook is title " Crazy little thing called Love". The idea came to me during a board meeting and this is to show how exhausted my brain really was at the end of the year and how in times of serious concentration i still keep a part of my mind for some creative outlet,for some design of a little something to give me so much excitement and joy.

Just in love with Tim Holtz art.

Red Room Creations Logo

So here it is. Finally. The logo was completed this weekend. Krystel worked super hard and being as a perfectionist as her mother, it took her several tries to get it where she wanted it to be. I love the flower with the poka dots, because it is so me and what I love, and I love the 'R' because it's modern and very artistic. So here I go making my little journals and cards, and turning a long time hobby into a little fun business.
