Hey
Scrappers and Discoverers! Come on in, grab a
cuppa, and meet our newest find, Tina Halsey!
Tina just seems like one of those sweet, funny,
outgoing girls-next-door. What a pleasure it was
to get to know her and work with her this month!
Her page, “Sweet”, is one of the very reasons
Tina was invited to be our Discovery this month.
It’s just such a, well, pretty page! So well put
together, so colorful, so lovely, and I love how
Tina rocks what she calls simple!
Tina seems
to be able to scrap anything; it's not that
there is a lack of style (or that she doesn’t
know her style), but she encompasses so many
styles. She can journal, or not. She can layer,
or not. She’s not afraid of color, but she can
turn on the subtle hue flair. And, wow, aren’t
mother and daughter just beautiful themselves?!
Congratulations, Tina, once again, on being
“discovered” with us this month. We wish you
much more success and talents surprised with
future discovery!

Fun 4 You by:
Tina Halsey. Supplies:
Paper: Heidi Swapp, Cardstock: Die Cuts
With A View, Tape, Flower: Heidi Swapp,
Transparent tape: Prima, Stickers: American
Crafts, Ink: Ranger.
Journaling:
A hot afternoon spent at Vandaveer Park.
We had a picnic, played at the playground,
looked thru the rose garden, took a walk. I
believe your favorite was when we hung out
by the fountain. I let you get in to cool
off, lets just say you didn't want to get
out. You thought it was great and before I
knew it you were soaked. That's ok –that’s
what being a kid’s all about.
Design
notes:
A
Toys R Us ad inspired this layout.
I'll take inspiration where ever I can get it.
The journal block is from patterned paper, dressed it
with pen and
scissors. I cut scallops and drew borders on
and around the paper to help it stand out a
bit more. |

Design
notes:
If you do not have the right color of
something, alter it! I sprayed the white scalloped
paper with Glimmer Mist to give it a much
softer look, as well as punching holes
and weaving ribbon through the holes to
give it a new look. I also used pink
Distress ink on the white KI lace die cut
paper so that it would tie in with the rest
of the layout. |

Design note:
It's ok to just have the picture say it all
sometimes. I do this a lot with portrait pics,
sometimes I just want to have fun with the art
part and not worry about journaling on every
single layout.

Sweet by Tina

Crafts.
 Hey my name is Tina Halsey,
I just turned 26. I'm a Wife, Mother, Nurse,
and one avid scrapbooker. I also work at my
LSS. My life is very busy but very
blessed. I stumbled upon the world of
scrapbooking about 4 years ago, and I’ve
been obsessed with it every since. My number
one subject to scrap is my daughter, Summer.
I really don't know my style. It usually
depends on my mood. I like to layer things,
I love scallop anything and flowers are also
always used on my pages. I will be published
for the first time in Memory Makers this
July, so I'm really excited about that.
Other than scrapbooking I enjoy doing
anything outdoors, camping, boating, walks,
hiking, swimming, (you get the idea), as
well as photography, traveling, shopping
(Hello, what girl doesn't like to shop?!)
and going out dancing and hangin’ with
friends and family. Check out my
blog! Thanks
for looking. Thank you to ScrapStreet
Magazine for this opportunity!
