Croms, over at the Dark Arts Forum of the SDSS, challenged us to try our hand at Soot Stamping, so here's what I did:

I will be adding things to this page to make the 2nd page of My Darkest Moments Album.

Toilet Tissue Roll Mini Album

I saw a You Tube video of someone creating a mini album out of toilet tissue rolls and thought "Oh, how cute.  I can do this".  I had some papers, tabs, etc. from a kit from s.e.i. leftover from one of my classes at the 2010 Great American Scrapbook Convention that I thought would be perfect for this project.

Here's my very first Toilet Tissue Roll Mini Album:

Front cover:

 I used Linen Acrylic Paint on the inside and outside of the toilet tissue rolls.

I added a few dots of Liquid Pearls here and there:

These photos really don't show how pretty these papers, etc. are:

Back cover:

Front of each tag that is tucked inside of each toilet tissue roll:

Back of each tag:

I left lots of spaces for photos and journaling.

I did this project at Stampin' Dymonz' Birthday Bash Crop on Saturday.  Had a blast as always!  I love croppin' at the Scrap Shack!

Dark Arts Prizes

I was entered into a drawing because I submitted the cover of My Darkest Moments Album to the Dark Arts Forum at the SDSS and I WON!!!  Yay me!!!  The stamp set is From the Crypt by Stampin' Up, the key charm is from Stampin' Dymonz and the rest of the charms came all the way from Scotland from Helen.  I'm looking forward to using these stamps and charms on the upcoming pages of my mini album for submission to the Dark Arts Forum!

Kayla's 6th Birthday Mini Album

This is the mini album that I made for my Granddaughter's 6th Birthday Celebration at Chuck E. Cheese's.  It's a chipboard album bound together with duct tape, that seems to not work well if you leave it in a car all day while the weather outside is 100 degrees.  Go figure!  Well, anyway, it was lots of fun to create!

1-on-1 ATC Swap - Fireworks

The theme for this ATC was Fireworks and you had to use red, white and blue.  I used TH Distress Inks to sponge the blue background, the edges, the small red fireworks and the large firework.  The raised center was cut using the Nestabilities Crown Ovals die.  I put stickles over the large firework and made the dots around the oval.
