GDT for Treasured Scrapbooking

I almost forgot to post this but I have some really amazing news. I tried out for the DT over at Treasured Scrapbooking. I didn't get it which by the way upset me quite a bit but I was offered to a Guest Designer spot for the month of December. I'm delighted with this as I really really love Treasured Scrapbooking. Its the coolest place to be. I tell you what the gals over there are amazing and just so full of talent it will knock your socks off. I kid you not. Head on over there if you don't believe me. They also have some really amazing KITS and you can go right here for that. Have a look around you might find something your just have to get your hands on.

I guess I will have to up my game next go around for the DT. I'll just have to do some serious thinking about it. I have 6 months to think it over.

Bra Purse

My last project I made for Treasured Scrapbooking 'Think Pink Cyber Crop' this past weekend. This was for Erin's Boobilious Challenge. I wanted to do something so very different for the challenge and this is what I did. NO laughing! lol!

I took an new old underwire bra that I bought years ago and never wore. Decided to do something with it and Erin's challenge was perfect for using it.


I altered it with medium yellow ric rac, ribbon, primas and buttons.

**WEEK 2** CHALLENGE
This second challenge is you have to create a seasonal themed layout, BUT, you cannot use actual themed products. Instead use colors and any other embellishments (non-themed) to create a seasonal layout. (So for example, If I am creating a Christmas layout, for this challenge I can use like red and green colors and stuff, but I cannot use anything that is Christmas themed. Like I cannot use christmas themed paper, or christmas embellishments).
