This month’s theme for the Story Kit at Ali Edwards’s is Roots. I was inspired to dig out some old polaroid photos of me with my grandparents. I love these photos! I used the brush in the kit to make the backdrop for the photos.
I printed the designs onto kraft cardstock.
And the title says it all… so much love!
I love how this page turned out.
One of the things I love the most about scrapbooking, other than it gives me a chance to be creative and play with pretty paper, is that it makes me slow down and reflect on what are the things that really matter in my life. These past few weeks have been rough at work as I am waiting for some big news that has been delayed by over a month now. I am trying to cope with the uncertainty the best I can, but the stress has spilled into my whole life. Which is not good. So I made this page, to incite myself to keep going.
This is a hybrid page. I printed the text of the song (using the High Jump font by Amy Martin) and the “jump in” brush from Ali Edwards on a patterned background, then I added all the embellishments.
It’s funny, I usually am not inspired to use lyrics on my pages.. but this time it was just the perfect jumpstart for this page.
It’s time for the July M3 (Mixed Media Monthly) collection at The Lilypad! The theme for this month is heroes, and it was just perfect to make a motivational page for me.
I also combined some of the add ons for my page.
And that’s it from me for today, have a good end of the week!
We are at the middle of the week (which makes me happy), and at the middle of the summer too (which makes me sad). But today is also SOSN (Something Old, Something New 50% off sale at The Lilypad), so overall I am happy. 🙂
Here’s what I made with products from the sale:
The design was inspired by that fun doodled background with the frames. I love the pops of color!
I’m lucky this has been a short week for me, but nonetheless Friday couldn’t have arrived sooner! Yes.. it’s been one of those weeks! Luckily, I have no plans for the weekend (yay) and there are some lovely new kits in the store that made me smile. Here’s what I made from the new releases at The Lilypad!
And here’s a page with creashens’s newest kit:
Have a nice day!
The July BYOC at The Lilypad (“build your own collab”) is a ton of fun!! I picked out the brightest colors possible of course 🙂 and made this page:

So fun!! 🙂
Hello! For some unexpected turn of events my boss decided to give us today off, making this a 4-day weekend, and who am I to complain?? 🙂 The highlights of my day were catching up on my Project Life, and making this hybrid 2-pager.
I used the lovely Thick Day Brushes by Ali Edwards to cut out the days with my Silhouette. The paper I used is from this lovely set by Valorie Wibbens, which is part of the July BYOC.
Here’s a look at the two pages:
I had fun using different alpha stamps on both pages.
I love how the bright days stand out agains the moon.
I finished off the project with some messy stitching and paint splatters. I love how it turned out!
I recently made a trip to the Pacific NorthWest, and I loved the the natural sights. So I used the latest collection my Mari Koegelenberg to document it.
I love that map paper!
Oh wow, how can it be July already?? It’s hard to believe. One good thing about today is that it’s time for the weekly 50% off sale at The Lilypad. Here’s what I made with products from the sale.

Have a great rest of the week!
Hello and happy Monday! Today I want to share a page I made just because..

Just because I really really like this guy, and hot pink, and pretty much anything designed by Valorie Wibbens. 🙂 Oh yes I do!
