Paper beads

I had so much fun making these paper beads! This was my first time making them. I found several YouTube videos that were helpful. Here are two of the videos I found. How to make paper beads
and paper beads with b'sue. Now go have some fun making your own paper beads!

Using Stampin' up products!

I wanted to make a card using my new Stanpin' up products. The pattern paper is from the paisley petals pack. I matched it with marina mist paper. I also used the cajun craze striped ribbon and ink. Using Stampin' up takes out all the guess work on matching the colors.

 

While in California we spent time with family. We visited the San Juan Capistrano Mission.The picture was taken at the end of the day in Starbucks. 

Christmas 2012

Back to scrapbooking for me. I haven't designed a page in two years. We celebrated Christmas in San Diego with Monique and Bobby. Julius met us there (he is going to school in TX). We had a great time and I thought let me get these pictures down on paper. I still have other pictures to scrapbook. It took me forever to do these two pages. Hopefully the next scrapbook pages will be easier for me.
