Amy has 2 new kits in the store today, and they’re both adorable!!

The first is her collab with Polka Dot Plum, Cutieful Doodleful Youville – it’s great to see this back in the store!


And the other kit is the brand new Hula Monkey – it’s soooo cute!


Here’s a little hybrid project I did with it:

The hybrid challenge I’m hosting at ScrapMatters is finally live, so I can share the project I did for it. I’m so proud of it!! 😉


I used the gorgeous collab Tropical Escape by Erica Zane and Mari Koegelenberg for this frame. You can find it at ScrapMatters and the DigiChick.
I actually chose this kit because it matched beautifully the Prima flowers I had just bought! 😉
Physical supplies: wooden frame by Michael’s, Mod Podge, glue dots, buttons from Wal-Mart, beads, Epson matte presentation paper, Prima flowers.
I got the idea for sticking the the beads on the buttons from the CK blog and I love the result! So pretty!

Getting Ready for Christmas…

Artscow had a sale a couple of weeks ago: a deck of personalized cards, only $6.99 including shipping. Since my parents love to play cards, I thought this would make a perfect gift for them! I’ll actually use it as a stocking filler for Christmas! 🙂

Here’s the cards:


I decorated them with pictures of my parents, their initials and a few elements in theme. 🙂
I used the gorgeous Jackpot by Britt-ish Designs for this – just perfect!


Now let’s see if I can resist until Christmas to give them to my parents.. 😉 I’m not sure when I’ll see them, so it does look like I’ll have to wait a few months.

Heron

We’ve been living in this house for a year and a half but we keep seeing new animals. 🙂
Even though we’d spotted them before, this month was the first time we were able to take pictures of foxes.
And recently we’ve seen herons too. I took a gorgeous picture of a fox and a heron (must scrap that soon!) and here’s some closeups of just the heron. It’s really a big bird! 🙂

Weeds and Wildflowers has a new reward system: you get a point for each challenge you take part in, and 10 points are worth a $10 GC!
This is my first LO with the new system, it was a template challenge:

Along with 4 fellow CT members, I’m competing in the Battle of the CTs at DigiScrapAddicts for Amy Sumrall’s fabulous team! We’re the Big Pimpins and we rocked the first round.
For the first assignment the team had to use negative space and pick a color theme: we picked the rainbow as our theme, but we did much more than that! We even coordinated our pages so that they all form a rainbow:


How cool is that?? 😉

Here’s my page:

I scrapped a picture of Amy’s DD Sophie because we all scrapped pictures of children in the grass. 😉

So now it’s time to vote for the first round! Go here and vote for the Big Pimpins!!!!!!!!

All Is Quiet…

I know I haven’t posted much this week, but this doesn’t mean I haven’t been scrapping! 😉
I just cannot show the pages just yet, but there’s one that I can show using the new collab by Mickey B Designs and Man in the Moon Designs, out today at ScrapMatters, Sprinkler Party:


I had lots of fun playing with whis colorful kit! And looked at that water filled alpha – adorable!!
