Then and Now
I am absolutely in love with creashens’ new kit! The colors are so pretty! And there are a bunch of adorable add-ons in the shop to make scrapping even easier.
It is no secret that I love bright colors, and this pink and yellow combo is right up my alley! 😉 The flairs in the kit inspired me to create this page, since our 13th dating anniversary is coming up. 🙂

A for Awesome
Back to school anyone? Usually these kits do not apply, but this one by Mari Koegelenberg and Little Butterfly Wings was perfect for me this year! And I love that these sentiments can be used in a large variety of pages, not just school layouts.
Here’s my page. I love this background paper and the cool word art!

Have a great rest of the week!
August BYOC and more
I have a few pages and cards to share. First off, the August BYOC is in the shop at The Lilypad! I love the color scheme for this month, and here’s what I made with it:

Summer Camp Snipettes and Paper Piercing – Stitch Holes: Basic by Sahlin Studio
This next card was inspired by the trend of vellum pockets with confetti – as soon as I saw the gorgeous paper in Jenn Barrette’s kit, I knew I had to use it right away. 🙂

To write the sentiment on this card, I used my favorite alpha stamp set: the Stepping Stone Alphabet – Clear Stamps by Studio Calico/Hero Arts, stamped with Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad, Worn Lipstick
Lastly, I will share my favorite recent page:

I love how it turned out! Like the page at the beginning of the post, this one uses cell phone camera photos. The camera on DH’s Apple iPhone 4S is really good!
ETA: this page was featured on the MSA blog.
Guest Spot at One Story Down
Mari Koegelenberg is guest designer at One Story Down this month. Check out this adorable new kit she put in the store today! Aaaaand, you can get a chance to win this kit if you leave a comment in this post. 🙂
The papers in this kit are fantastic. I had a hard time to pick which ones to use on my first page, because they are all so pretty! The elements are really cute too.

I have a few more pages+cards to share from the past week, so look for a post soon. 🙂
Project Life Shopping
Several new products by Becky Higgins have arrived on Amazon, so I indulged in some Project Life shopping, yay! Here’s what I got:
The Photo Pocket Pages – Small Variety Pack 1. It’s a great deal because it includes 12 pages: 4 designs (3 pages of each) for $4.99 (instead of $6.99, because the size of the pockets in the design G in this set is slightly off). I already had bought a pack of 12 Photo Pocket Pages – Design G
at the beginning of the year so I don’t mind even if I won’t be able to use them. I still think I can use them, just resizing my pockets. Win-win!

I use these smaller pockets as inserts, while I keep the 12×12 pockets as my weekly pages. I have the Photo Pocket Pages – Big Variety Pack 1 (60 Pages)
It’s perfect timing for me to get these insert pages, because I am working on Week 22, for which I have used 4 Photo Pocket Pages – Design G
I have been using lots of pieces from the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan collection for this week, including the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan 6X6 Paper Pad, the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Collection – Remarks – Sticker Sheet – Borders, Accents and Phrases, the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Remarks Stickers Book Accents and Phrases and the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Large Tags Embellishments. I hope to be ready to share the full week soon!
Hello Saturday!
Yay for the weekend! I have some new goodies to share today. First off, a Christmas in July release by Mari Koegelenberg.
This very collection was turned into a paper line for My Mind’s Eye – how cool is that?? I thought I had already scrapped most of our 2011 Christmas, but I found this adorable picture of our elf that hadn’t been scrapped yet, so I made this page.
This collection is really huge, and I love the bright colors!
Next up, a fabulous collab by Jenn Barrette and Ju Kneipp. It’s available at DHD and SSD.
I made a page
and a card, and I love them both! 😉
I love vintage designs, and Jenn’s kits always have a special find. I know I have been a quiet blogger lately, but I’ve been immersed into my Project Life. I’m stuck on week 22 – that was the week of our road trip with my mom, and I have hundreds and hundreds of photos to tackle! I’m almost done though – I’m currently working on the Friday of that week, so I hope to be able to share something soon! I also want to make a post about my favorite PL supplies, so look for that next weekend. 🙂
