Great tutorial, how old is Blake, I have a 2 year old and he sound just as busy. I admire you for doing a tutorial with him there, I try to do mine when he is napping. He would be at the camera and running off with stuff I needed. LOL. Is this technique for a mini you are working on or a kit. One of the previous comments made it sound like it is part of a kit?

what would u recommend for a new scrapbooker tool and supply wise? a beginner's kit i guess you could say tools and such.

Distress ink in brushed courduroy, Tim Holtz Setrated scizzors, glue sticks, glimmer mist, prima flowers, K&Co papers, bone fold, chipboard, cropadile, and eyelets, and a paper trimmer. These are all good things to start with and will be all you need for awhile. Thank you for watching!

Great techniques! Thanks for sharing! I loved the little giggle at the end of the video! I also admire you for working on stuff with the kids right around you! I get a little overwhelmed sometimes when my three are awake while I'm trying to scrap! Thanks again!

I have never seen anyone tear the paper after gluing it down. Cool idea. It looks great. The sponge brush was so slick. I do not like the blender tool either. I am definately try out thye sponge brush. Great tutorial! Thank you so much!
