Hello hello! I spent most of my free time this weekend catching up on my Project Life album (I am currently 9 weeks behind), but tonight I sat down to play with creashens’ latest kit – and it’s 50% off right now! It’s called Boo but in fact it is very versatile, and I used it for this not-at-all-spooky page. 🙂

So fun! I went to town with the pretty shades of orange and pink. 🙂 Have a great start of the week!
Hello and happy Sunday! I’m happy to share a page I made for this week’s Sketch Challenge on the Studio Calico blog.
It’s a scrapbook page, but I made it entirely using Documenter kits, mainly the Story Board Documenter kit.
I didn’t have a use for the 4″x6″ card with the lips that comes in the kit, but I challenged myself to use it. So I cut it up with some circle punches.
I added some plastic embellishments from the Pool Party Documenter kit.
The gold alpha and the navy phrases with gold foil from the Story Board Documenter kit are fabulous!
I hope you’ll play along!
Hello and happy Friday! I am SO glad I was able to fit in a quick stop at the pumpkin patch earlier in the week, since it’s really gotten cold and wet (and snowy even!) around here, and I’d rather stay inside now. 🙂
And I am so happy it’s time for the latest Memory Pockets Monthly collection, because it worked perfectly with my photos!

Have a great weekend!
I’ve never been to Hawaii, but when Sakuralala came out with this 365: Hawai’i stamp set, I dug out some old photos from my dad from the ’70s just so I could use it. 🙂 It’s just so cute! And I couldn’t believe how well the stamps matched these old photos.
I paired the stamps with the Studio Calico Pool Party scrapbook kit.
I stamped the islands directly on the background with blue ink.
I also stamped a few of the images on some blue labels with black ink.
I added some die cuts by Amy Tangerine to add a pop of color and tie everything together.
And since today we got our first snow of the season, I thought it was fitting to immerse myself in this island weather for a while. 🙂
Hello! I’m not especially a fan of Halloween, having grown up in a country where we don’t celebrate it, but since living in the US it’s something you really cannot escape. 🙂 I sure don’t mind receiving trick-or-treaters, and watching scary movies is always fun. But there’s yet another source of fun this time of year: the Halloween Bash at The Lilypad, which includes a 31% sale off Halloween products, games, and challenges! I played along in a couple of them, and made this page:

Do come check out all the fun at The Lilypad!
Hello hello! I haven’t been posting any projects I’ve made lately using Sakuralala stamps because the shop has been closed for renovation, but it is now back online and full of new products!
I find these stamps to be the best for traveler’s notebooks (TN) and planners, I know I wouldn’t be able to document using TNs without them!
Here are some recent weekly TN spreads I made using the Sakuralala stamps.
I LOVE combining different stamp sets to document my daily life. Here I used the new 365: My Town and “Hello, Small Things! – Say Cheese” sets.
I combined them with these sets that I use all the time: 365: Daily, 365: Emotions, 365: Nippon, 365: Food, 365: Activity, 365: Me Time, 365: Fukuro.
Here you can see some images from the 365: My Town and “Hello, Small Things! – Say Cheese” sets.
And in this spread I used the new YEARS – AUTUMN stamp set and the Hello, Small Things! – Autumn Home.
I also used the 365: Emotions, 365: Food, 365: Activity, 365: Hikari, 365: Aki and 365: Family and Friends.
These YEARS stamps are so much fun to use since they have several images that can be combined together.
Tip: since clear stamps are very flexible, you can bend the stem of the flower to give it different shapes.
This deer from the Hello, Small Things! – Autumn Home stamp set is my favorite!
Have a great end of the weekend! 🙂
It’s that time of the year… Christmas is almost 2 months away and I love that there are so many opportunities to help us get ready. Studio Calico has some great classes available, and I’m always happy to get more inspiration!
I can’t wait to see what these ladies will be sharing in the class!
Next, they are re-releasing some past classes for even more December inspiration!
Have you decided on your format for December Daily yet? This will be my 7th time doing this project. Check out my 6 past albums here.
And here’s a look at all six of my December Daily albums.
Hello and happy Friday! It’s that time of the year when I frantically work on my 2017 calendars… I usually repurpose layouts I crated during the year to become my calendar toppers, but occasionally I make a new one too. This was the case this week, since I couldn’t resist using some of the latest releases at The Lilypad (20% off through the weekend). 🙂

That fox is just too cute!! 🙂 Have a great weekend!
Hello! We’ve almost made it halfway through the week, and that means it’s time for some amazing deals at The Lilypad, with select product 50% off! I had fun making these projects with some of the product on sale.
This template was really cool to use, and I love how this page turned out!
I was inspired by this collection to document a few of the many blessings in my life – I’ve been having some health issues (ugh) on top of a few other things that haven’t been going great, so it sure felt good to focus on all the good I have in my life.
Have a great rest of the week!
