Fabulous Fall

September 16, 2012 | cristina

A couple of weeks ago Jenn Barrette collabed with Zoe Pearn on a fall kit. I didn’t have time to create with it at the time, but I knew I wanted to use it soon. It’s an adorable fall kit:

The colors are not the traditional fall ones, and maybe that’s why I love this kit so much.

Is it starting to feel like fall in your corner of the world? It is here, and I am totally loving the cool weather!

New kit and a CT call!

Mari Koegelenberg has a new collab in her store today, and it’s beautiful!

The kit is full of adorable pieces, including some bokeh goodness!

And I also have a fantastic opportunity to share with you: Mari is having a CT call!

Mari’s was one of my first teams ever, and I have been on her team since June 2009 – over three years now! She is a fabulous designer and a beautiful person – it is a great team to be on!

It came together in no time! This collection makes it really easy to whip up a page, since you don’t have to go looking for anything else, there’s so much variety in it!

I’m Super

September 14, 2012 | cristina

I had so much fun making a page with the new releases at The Lilypad!

This kit is bright and versatile – just what I like! I also loved using these cards by Emily Merritt – I love the design of these so much!

Finally, I know I will be using this chevron pack by Kaye Winiecki over and over!

And here’s my page! The kit inspired me to do an all about me page, so I went with it, and I’m glad I got these thoughts on paper!

Journaling:

OK, I’m not really super.. But I have come to realize more and more in this last year that I am not happy unless I take on many things at once. I always complain about hardly having enough time to do it all, but in truth I would be completely lost and bored if I only did half of what I do ! 🙂

It’s Here

September 14, 2012 | cristina

Leora Sanford has a new collab with Paislee Press today! I love the style of both these designers, so I was really happy to hear they were working on a kit together! It did not disappoint!

I had my first salted caramel macchiato ever last week, and I loved the instagram picture I took of it, so I thought it would be fun to make a page about it. 🙂

Desperately trying to get to the end of the week.. I have a couple of extremely busy weeks ahead of me, but I am so tired already! I do have quite a few more pages to share, so do stop by soon. 😉

Neon card

September 10, 2012 | cristina

I recently bought some Hero Arts neon yellow ink pad and hadn’t tried it yet, so I used it to make a card. I based it off a sketch by Page Maps. 🙂

It’s a really fun color! I made a cloud by misting a cloud-shaped piece of vellum paper with Mister Huey’s Calico White. I love how it turned out, and I will certainly be misting vellum again!
The stamps I used are from a sold out set by Studio Calico, and the sun is from a Studio Calico mistable element sticker set on which I used the neon ink. I also stamped some letters and a star from the EK Success Image Tree typewriter alphabet. The base for the card is American Crafts white cardstock.

Feels Like Fall

September 8, 2012 | cristina

It most definitely feels like fall around here, so my weekly card for DH is an autumn card. 🙂 I used the gorgeous new collab by Jenn Barrette and Kristin Cronin-Barrow:

September BYOC

September 7, 2012 | cristina

How can it be September already?? Well, the September BYOC is so pretty that it almost makes me glad that a new month is here. 😉 I made the most of Labor Day and scrapped a couple of pages. Yay!
