I'd be interested in Mixed Media, Collage, Altered Art books. Also for Somerset Magazines: Life, Studio, Home, Apprentice or possibly others from Somerset.  Make me an offer and I might be interested in what you want to part with.

I found this notebook at the Dollar Tree.  I liked the cover as it was, so I just added the chipboard label holder thingie after glittering with this awesome blue color, a piece of vintage doily and the Spanish word for pages, paginas.  I thought it turned out pretty adorable.

Here are some beautiful giveaways from those generous bloggers we all love.  Let's celebrate with them!

Have a fun rest of the week and good luck on those giveaways.  I was lucky to win 2 awesome giveaways recently. I'll show you the goodies on a future post once I receive them.

Prima's Blog

I'm a follower of the Prima Marketing blog and I get beautiful eye candy each time. Many of their creations are truly beautiful and so inspiring. They're currently running a monthly challenge of sorts and a giveaway. I don't know about you, but I can't pass it up. To read about it and enter the giveaway, click the picture above or here.

Good luck,

My Blog Featured -- Am I dreaming?

No, Jami Peterson really did emailed me to let me know she wanted to feature my blog on the next Scrapbooking.com online magazine. Oh! Was my confidence ever boosted. I anxiously awaited for my copy. I can't believe someone was actually interested in my little and oh, so young blog. If you don't already subscribe to it and you want to see it, check tomorrow to be in their newsletter tab on the left hand side of their main page or click here and look for issue 44.

In celebration, I'm offering more of my vintage postcard collection for your use. Many thanks to all who have so far supported me and left such wonderful comments for me. It's really heartwarming the support and friendship I've found in blogland.

Happy Halloween!

Why not celebrate with a blog party? Amy at livinglocurto is hosting a party and I'm participating by entering my halloween banner. The one I posted earlier. Check her site for more entries and to participate, there's still time.

For the Love of Paper

As many scrapbookers, I've been addicted for over 12 years now. Love scrapbooking and have done many albums over the years. Currently, I've been trying altered art and I'm really enjoying learning so much about it through other blogs and many sites as well as books about the subject.

Getting much inspiration and ideas from the many experts is one of my favorite pastimes. It's eye candy!! This blog is my attempt to give some back, so I'll be adding photos of things I work on and hope to be inspiration and help others.
