February Page Kits

One of my best friends lives in Washington DC. There is something about that three hour time difference that seems to mess up our phone calls. By the time the kids are put to bed, it is too late to call, so we are having to call on weekends-always an adventure. But, we had the best call this month catching up on everything and dreaming of the day she will be able to come back to California. As a dedication to all my wonderful friends, far and near, I created a page kit to celebrate our important relationships. If you want one for your own pictures of you with your best friends, check out the February club selection.

February Kits- Ensemble Club

We're getting ready to ship the monthly ensemble club! The paper is from Fancy Pant's Crush line. I love this paper. This kit is just too much fun for celebrating Valentine's Day. It is all about the one you love.

Adhesives, Part 4

E6000 Multi-Purpose Adhesive

I like this glue for gluing on the glass marble feet on to the boxed accordion albums. BUT, make sure when you are applying the glue that you use it outside. This stuff smells awful. It is acid free once it cures, but during the curing time, it smells yucky. I leave the boxes in my garage overnight, and then bring them back in to the house in the morning.

Why do I like it? It is a clear gloppy glue. You put a little pea sized about on the corner of the box, and then nestle the glass marble into it. The glue comes up around the marble to hold it securely, but since it is perfectly clear, you can't see it on the box. Well, if you turn the box over and look really close you can, but mostly no one notices it. It is very strong. Your paper will tear before this glue comes off. It is perfect for this application.

Happy New Year!!!!

We are very busy preparing for the new year. For the first time, I'm teaching at the Creating Keepsakes Conventions in Mesa, AZ and Portland, OR. The paper for the classes arrived this past week and we are busy creating and packaging the kits for all of you. Check out our class descriptions at http://www.ckscrapbookevents.com/oregon2008/
