My Scrapbook Goals for 2013

Last year, my goal was to get published. I am happy to say that I was published in Scrapbook News and Review. I did not count on breaking my wrist in May, so I did not submit any other work.....

My crafty goals for 2013 are:


1. Find the rest of my mojo!!! It broke with my wrist last May and I have gotten some back. I need to seek out challenges, blog hops and classes to rejuvenate!! ****I do want to add that my mojo is coming back (yay) and I have great moments of inspiration, and others where I am completely stumped!!! I get a lot of comments on this goal! Last year I posted 3-5 times a week and this year I am 1-3 times a week....getting there!!

2. Finish Tyler's High School Album before his Graduation Party!!!

3. Reinvent my scrapbook style - I am feeling a little stale!

4. Seek out DT opportunities that match my talents and goals.

5. Conquer my fear of creating videos and learn how to edit!!

Valentine Luscious Lip Scrub

Hello and Happy Valentine's Month!!!

I am excited to be featured at The Bug Bytes with a super fun Valentine gift idea!

I wanted to make something fun for my daycare moms and my son's teacher for Valentine's Day.  I found an awesome lip scrub recipe from my friend Sarah Hamer (link is below).  I found these round containers at the Dollar Store and got to work!!

I started with my Gypsy and a blank mat.

The lid to my containers measures 2 inches.  I opened Layer 2 in my gypsy and put a 2 inch circle on the mat.

I found these fun lips on the Don Juan cartridge and sized them to 1 inch.  I could see through the layer that the lips would fit on the lid.

I put the shadow lips on the top half of the mat, and the lips on the bottom half.
I cut out the lips in black and pink cardstock.

I adhered the lips together (no - it only works with paper he he).

I used my Martha Stewart glitter glue to trace the lip line.

I used my 1 7/8" punch for the background paper for my lips.  I will use up some of my pink and Valentine paper scraps.

***This part the children will help me with!!

I used my Tim Holtz red distressed marker to ink the edge of the circle.

I got the recipe for the lip scrub from my friend Sarah (Pink Cricut or Pink by Design) HERE.  When she posted the recipe I tried it right away and LOVED it!!

It is all natural and ok to lick :)


Here is my Luscious Lip Scrub gift!  I will let the children decorate the bag and gift tag.

I hope you and your lips have a wonderful Valentine's Day!!
