So I'm hoping to finally join this hop in March. If you have never participated or followed a blog hop, start now! So much fun! A blog hop starts with a specific topic- this month is scrapbook layout using new papers. You go to the first blog and each blog has a link to another. So you get the chance to see lots of creations and so many examples.
Check out the blog of the lovely lady who keeps us organized, Michelle. And be sure to save some time to hop away! You can find her blog at

Happy hopping!!
A place for people who love to craft, even if you don't have much time! Let me show you how!

Get free stuff AND get layouts done regularly!
... and that doesn't even mention the great GAL time and the extra supplies you will get.... and access to the campaigns ... and sharing tips and ideas!
THE CLUB IS STARTING... have 2 confirmed members.. join us!! I need 5 people to start at least as then we can GUARANTEE that each person will get to be a hostess during the time and get the min of $25 off their order. We will be doing a WOTG (Workshop on the Go)... this can be changed later but I would like to start with this for the first month or so. If you can't make the date but still order the WOTG you will still be eligible for the hostess rewards.
Those doing the club can decide on the which ones we do... hostess choice or vote between all club members... depending on what the members want to do. You will be sure to get a 2 page layout done each session and I will provide any of the additional supplies needed to complete the workshop. I was thinking to start we do Chantilly, Claire or the Canvas Art. I have seen them all completed and they are all gorgeous! Actually I honestly have loved them all!!
Here is a link for the current WOTG's we have running. If people like the paper but prefer the additional layout there are options there. If someone absolutely HATES the one we are doing in a given month, we can discuss the option of them choosing another one that isn't being done. Also after a month or 2 if people don't like the WOTG option we can look at instead people spending the minimum amount each month. But I would like to at least start this way to get us going. Can't WAIT to get in some SCRAPPIN TIME!!

Feel free to share this with any who would be interested. I'd like to get 5 interested people ASAP so we can decide on one for late Feb or sometime in March. Interested? Send me a PM, comment or email me at scrappinsimply@gmail.com!

Quick Tip
When making cards I use a sentiment that can be used for many uses. For example with this card although it says 4my friend inside you could add a sentiment for someone's birthday, missing you, feel better, thank you. Options are endless. Cut supplies for a bunch of them and make a stack and keep it generic so you can grab it and use it as needed.

Tutorial from Cheryl for coloring skin
For all of you new to Copics or alcohol markers (or even if you aren't) check out this tutorial by Cheryl Alger. Her images are great as well. She has a shop Filled with "digi images" so you order them and they are saved on your computer. Nice and easy!
This video also has some info and tricks.
When you print an image ensure you use card stock made for blending as it will help with your coloring. Also after printing you can set your image with a heat gun to help prevent smearing. If you use a laser printer I don't believe that step is necessary.
Here is the link for her tutorial:
