The Last CJ and Some Loot!

Jean's cj is the last of the group.  I have finished the cj's!!!! Not the tags yet, though.  Still have Lisa's tag and Jean's tag, which I have to find out what that is.
Jean's subject was Four Verses That Speak To Me.  This was hard since I find so many very meaningful and they touch me either in comfort, or to make me say, "Yeah, I here ya."  Here are the pics of my lo's -

I used my ever present cricut with jasmine font for the title, home accents for the bird, butterfly, and faith diecuts, and then I cut the little flowers from some left over paper that I used.  I inked, and stickled of course, and I glimmermisted a beige piece of paper for the journaling box.  I think it came pretty.  Using vellum for the verses gives it a nice touch, I like the effect it has.  I hope Jean likes it too : )

Now for my stash!  Went to Collective Journey with a coupon I got in my email.  Spend $25 and get a free paper salad.  Paper salad you say, what the heydee ho is that?  Look -

Just a cute little collection of ribbon rick-rack, paper pieces and such.  They have a box filled with all different ones and I picked this one.  I also bought goodies of course, had to spend $25 to get this booger. Check out this stuff!!! -

Lookie, Tim Holtz's grunge paper!  Yes!!  This stuff is great, it's bendy but has substance to it unlike paper, and I can put it in my cricut or big shot to cut.  A bag of plain flowers, yahooo!  You can stamp em, glimmermist or ink em, awesome.  BoBunny has come out with a bunch of vintage papers that look so pretty.  I love BoBunny it's one of my favorites.  I thought the black and white papers are really nice, they weren't BoBunny can't remember who they're from, and then yes it's true Twilight paper.  Now I didn't get the ones that were specific to Twilight, I got 2 that I could use with True Blood.  Boy hubs is just gonna love that ; )  Here's a few more pics -

I have a SERIOUS paper addiction.  Gosh I just can't help myself, but my scrappin buds know all about this so they understand.  There is no way I could use all the paper I have.  I think I would have to scrap everyday for about 2 years, and maybe not even then, bad huh?

Hope you like the goodies and the layouts, ciao ; )
