Winner!!!!!



The winner of my give away is Lisa Nelson!!!! Congratulations! I hope you enjoy this book as much as I do!

Feature Product- Glimmer Mist

If you haven't used Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels add it to your "must try" list! You might think you'll never use this product but I promise you that you will fall in love with it and need every color! It's perfect for chipboard and Grunge Board and I really like it on paper. Tip: shake well before and during use to stir up the glimmer. If your project doesn't seem to have a "glimmer" simply add more spray! I use it on almost every page I do right now- I am loving this product!



This is a layout I did using Olive Vine- the heart & Wheatfields- the Grunge Board wings. (Click on layout to enlarge photo)



I used Olive Vine to cover a chipboard album cover. I also used a Riff Raff flourish as a mask and just sprayed right over top of it. I love how it turned out!



To see a few more layouts that I used Glimmer Mist on check out my work on Riff Raff's site!

Welcome!

Dream Job: to own a scrapbooking company, teach scrapbooking and inspire other scrapbookers all over the world.


Delite Designs is this for me! I have been scrapbooking for myself and other people for years and there is no other feeling like it when I give someone their pages and they are overcome with emotion. I get this same feeling when I teach, which has been my ultimate motivation. Delite Designs has been in the works for some time now. I had business cards made last year but didn't feel I had it in me to give them out... I'm over that!

Welcome to Delite Designs!!!

What you can expect from me:
- online classes (did I mention they're free), with instructions, photos and supply lists
- challenges
- the Delite Design Studio
- "must haves" every second Saturday
- favorite quotes every Monday to give you a little inspiration
- GIVE AWAYS! yeah free "delites"!!!

What I'm hoping for the future:
- class kits
- challenge kits
- teaching in more stores
- scrapbooking for others
- and of course... hanging out with Ali Edwards, Heidi Swapp, Donna Downey, Elsie, Stacey Julian... just to name a few of my all time favorite scrappers/ designers and all around cool people! (a girl can dream can't she?)


The book below is the inspiration for my May class, She... by Kobi Yamada. If you haven't read this book you have to go get it! It warms my heart, inspires me and gives me goose bumps every time I read it! Not only is it my inspiration but it's also my very first give away. I want every woman I know to read this book and it could be yours just for making a comment on my blog or by sending me one by email (sidebar). I'll take all the names and draw a lucky winner on May 10th. I only ask that the winner covers shipping costs if any are needed! Sounds like a good deal to me. You will not be disappointed!

Here's a sneak peak at May's class! Check back this Saturday for the whole thing!

I'll also be giving you your first challenge on Saturday, which by the way is National Scrapbooking Day! How fabulous- an entire day dedicated to such an amazing passion!

I'd like to give a shout out to two wonderful and talented ladies who have helped me get this going. To Jules who made my blog headers and emailing me tips- thank you! I love them! And to Anam for answering all my questions and emailing me "codes"- I'd still be trying to add an email link if it weren't for you! I know how busy you both are and I really appreciate your help! -xoxo-


Thanks for reading and I hope to see you back soon!

Hugs,

Nadine
