Rock, Paper, Scissors, & Scrap

I used the Cricut Hello Kitty cartridge, glass ornaments, and some old ribbon to make these.

I used the nerd file folders I scored at Wal Mart for .15!!!!  SMASHED about going to the Microsoft store and the new tablet SURFACE!  (Ohhh I love it).  The inside of the folder is SMASHED about later on that day going to Fry's electronics. We had a fun nerdy day.

I bought some clothes pins from the dollar store.  I used the Recollections washi tape from Michael's and covered them. Was only gonna make 2 sets but they were so much fun, I kept making them.

I have saved all of these things for years now.  Along time ago a gal, can't remember who, made the paper piecing for me.  It was from my very first online scrapbook group.  I finally SMASHED it. I used the K&Co Light Purple Big SMASHbook, the yellow pages.  I added green file folders I found in a drawer, so the pages can be opened to give me more room. Inside the birth certificates, were pictures of other Cabbage Patch Kids for sale.  I cut those and I had saved a million of the brochures.  Cut those up and used those too. My fave about this page is the bag, I had saved it from when I was either a kid, or my trip when I graduated Highschool in 1995.  In 2011, went back, and it has closed :( I was really sad.  They didn't even have the painted wall up to take pictures by.

I follow many of the coupon blogs and websites.  Yesterday, vistaprint, had the mens T-shirts for only $2.00 so I had this made. Can not wait for the mail to come.  I want to wear it all the time and I don't even have it yet.

More New Orleans pages.  I kinda mixed SMASHING with Scrapping.  Even used old stickers I bought in 2000 or 2001 and dusted off my Creative Memories circle cutter.  Don't know why I stopped tearing paper, or stopped using my circle cutter.  Forgot how much fun they both are to do.

This is my boyfriend and the reason I e-mailed him on a dating site is because he said his fave city was New Orleans.  That is mine too.  He had never been there though.  So we got an opportunity to go to the town that sparked our relationship!  Of course it rained the second we got there.  But, that is OK we will go back!!!
