Sweater Weather

Oh how I love fall! I love to scrap fall too. And the newest collection by Digital Design Essentials makes me so happy!

This is a steal at only $4.99! Here’s what I made.

Sweater weather indeed! The picture is from last weekend, when it was chilly but sunny – my favorite kind of weather!

Pumpkin Patch

I have a hybrid/paper page to share today, made with a bunch of digital products by Ali Edwards. I love how by using the digital elements I can start my design in Photoshop, so all of the guesswork is taken out of the assembly part.

I created the background using a combination of digital stamps, and printed it out on American Crafts 8.5″x11″ card stock. Then I added my photos, a couple pieces of paper cut to fit one of the diamonds in the background, and some embellishments.
I couldn’t resist painting that word bubble to make it look like a pumpkin! 🙂 I love how this page turned out.

I Love Fall!

Mari Koegelenberg has a new collab in the store.. and I love the organic feel of it!
Fall is such a pretty season.. and so many awesome photo opportunities! 🙂 Here’s a photo I took last weekend.

Have a good weekend! I most definitely have some crafty plans, I need to relax after a super stressful week. 🙂

October M3 at The Lilypad

Hello and happy Friday! I’ve been quiet around here lately.. just dealing with a couple emergencies at work. But I have two three pages to share made with the new Mixed Media Monthly collaboration and add ons at the Lilypad!

This was so much fun to play with! I especially found the background papers amazing.. All my pages were inspired by the backgrounds in the kit.

We did a couple of outings last weekend and I got some great shots.. this is one of them. Can’t wait to scrap the rest (pumpkin patch anyone??)! 🙂

This is a last minute page I made last night.. Once again, using one of the amazing background papers in the kit. I’m in love!

October BYOC

I am so inspired by the new BYOC  (Build Your Own Collab) at The Lilypad! These colors are soooo pretty.

I had very little time this week, yet I scrapped these four pages in one day.. so yeah I guess that I was indeed inspired by these lovely products! 😉

This adorable bear was perfect for me to tell this story! I used one of the elements to create a distressed mask to blend my photo in the background.

And now.. the weekend may commence (OK.. one more day)! And I definitely need it after a rocky work week this week *sigh*.
I do have some good news to share in the next few days

The BYOC is 20% off through the weekend. Do yourself a favor and get this alpha… it plain ROCKS!

Hello October

The end of summer / early fall is such a lovely time of the year. I am savoring it.
Today I want to share the page I made for the October write.click.scrapbook gallery. The theme was “scraps”, so I used up some products I had in my stash, namely the September BYOC from The Lilypad. The October BYOC is being released this Friday, so I was happy to get another page done before that.
