It’s time for new releases at The Lilypad, and I have a fun page to share! 🙂 I used this adorable kit:
and these oh-so-pretty buttons:
They were just perfect to scrap these pictures from last week! 🙂
As always, new releases are 20% off throughout the weekend!
It’s time for the usual mid-week sale at The Lilypad. A bunch of products are 50% off today only for Something Old, Something New. I used a few of them to scrap two pages. In fact, I only used products by guest designers today. First off, this fun kit by Lauren Grier:
Those kitties are just adorable! Then I used this very fun bling pack by Kim Jensen:
and some butterflies:
For my second page, I used this great kit by Sabrina Dupre:
I loved the monochromatic feel and thought it was perfect to scrap my snow pictures! I added more bling too! 🙂
Have a great rest of the week! 🙂
I am so excited to share my first page for creashens’s CT! It was tough to pick which kit to start with from Shen’s beautiful store, but since I had these pictures in mind, I had to go with this fun kit:
Here is my page:
I love that background paper, so bright and happy!
The March BYOC debuted yesterday at The Lilypad, and today there are more special releases out!
First let me share two pages I’ve made so far with this BYOC. I am so in love with the bright colors! They make me so happy!
I love absolutely everything of this BYOC, and I cannot show it all here, but I must show you these flowers, because they’re absolutely gorgeous! I love the dimension!
Finally, I used these releases from today:
To make this page:
As you can see, I finally had some scrapping time! 🙂 I have one more page to share (my first for creashens!) – I’ll post it tomorrow. And next, I need to get working on my Project Life!
Yay, I am so happy the week is over! I have big plans to scrap this weekend. 🙂 In the meantime, I realized I hadn’t posted this card yet. I made it last week for DH. We recently watched Rio and loved it, and I was inspired to make this. 😉
Wow… is it March already?? Well, it looks like this month is headed off to a good start! Jenn Barrette is guesting at The Digichick and she has a gorgeous new kit out today.
I just loooove this vintage inspired kit! I made a card:
These past two weeks have been kinda crazy for me, with lots of work every.single.day, weekends included. Knocking on wood, things will get better once tomorrow is over, but I wanted to pop in today to share some great news and a sale. 🙂 A couple weeks ago I applied to a CT call for Creashens, and I was picked to be on the team!!
My term officially starts tomorrow, and I can’t wait! 😉 She is having a special leap year sale today, everything is 40% off in her shop! Go check it out!!
I am so excited to share Week 7 of my Project Life. I am completely in love with this spread, but it’s no surprise really, since I mostly used products from the February ’12 BYOC at The Lilypad, one of my favorite collections ever! I added some of my recent purchases (Thickers alpha and the new Dear Lizzy release) to boot! Plus it was Valentine Week, and everything came together just right. I finished the spread Friday night, and took pictures Saturday morning (with good light for once!).
The biggest challenge for me this week was to fit in all the photos. I started printing out a few filler cards from the BYOC, and since I loved them all, I didn’t want to leave any out. 😉 Note to self: print out pictures out first, next time! 🙂 Here’s a closer look to the pages:
I used some pieces from my new Dear Lizzy Neapolitan collection here. The strawberry paper, the pink paper, and the pink sticker alpha. I’m so happy I got it just in time to use with this week, since the colors matched so well!
And here are a few of my favorite details of this spread.
Once again, my title card borrowed heavily from a card I recently made. I just love this foam alpha, and I’m glad I overcame my hoarding tendency and used it. 🙂
These two pictures were taken with Instagram on DH’s iPhone (I just made him install it, and we’re loving it!). 😉 Here are a few of my favorite cards this week:
1. I am completely in love with the design of the Starbucks Valentine cup!
2. These wood veneers came in just this week along with my Dear Lizzy order, so I had to use them right away. 😉 I sprayed this one with a light pink mist.
3. This card is inspired by a movie we watched and loved. I think it’s so cute and in fact I turned it into a card for DH as well! (but of course the first thing DH said when he saw it was that the blue birds are not parrots as they are supposed to. Ugh!!)
4. I love the idea of recording our weight on this pretty scale! I must do it again! I also loved using the little journaling pieces on top of the cards.

I have been completely swamped this week (and it’s not over yet!!) so I have not been able to create nearly as much as I’d hoped, but I do have a page to share, made with today’s new releases at The Lilypad. 😉 Here’s what I used:
This kit is so much fun!!
These borders are really cool to finish up a page!
These bubbles are so cute! They look so realistic!
And here’s what I wished I had time to scrap with, but haven’t been able to yet.
Loooove these colors, they make me so happy!
I don’t currently have any dolls to scrap about, but the patterns in this kit and the pink+green combo are just too cool!
Have a good weekend, and wish me luck, because I need to get lots of work done!
