Hello and Happy New Year! May 2017 bring you joy and health and everything else you wish for!
I had high hopes for posting while I was on vacation, but my blog has been sadly neglected… Well, I’m back now and I want to share the first page of 2017, made with the January BYOC from The Lilypad.

For the Jan. 4 MOC challenge

Also, have you been playing along with the Month of Challenges?? If you enter all challenges, you will get a $20 gift cart! I made this page for MOC 4.

Hello hello! I’ll keep this short and sweet because Christmas is only 1 week away (eek!) and I’m running around like crazy lately (but having a blast)! 🙂 I have two pages to share made with the new Mixed Media Monthly collection from The Lilypad – I had to grab it right away even though I am plagued with a spotty internet connection at the moment, so it was a pain to download – but so worth it!!

Mixed Media Monthly December 2016 from The Lilypad

The colors are so pretty! And the alpha stamp is really cool.

Have a great Christmas week!

This year December sprung onto me, and between trips and craziness at work, I wasn’t ready for it. But finally, I am feeling the Christmas spirit! Christmas music is playing loud on this December weekend, and I have all my Christmas shopping done. Yay!
I have some pages to share made with this week’s new releases  at The Lilypad, which are 20% off through the weekend.

These 2 pages are made to coordinate since they are part of the same story / Shopping trip.

And finally, a page made using Dawn Inskip’s gorgeous illustrations!

Have a great weekend!

I have been scarce lately… but I have a good reason: I got to spend a week in Hawaii accompanying my husband – it was our first time there, and we absolutely loved it! The weather was just perfect! And now that I am back, I have lots of photos to scrap. 🙂
I used this week’s 50% off products at The Lilypad (on sale through Wednesday), as well as this month’s BYOC collection that was released while I was away.

Not only did I get to spend a week in Hawaii, but I also got to meet up with some online friends who live there – it was awesome!! It is so nice to have some crafty friends, if only they didn’t live so far away!

And since we are now well into December, of course I had to scrap a page about our Elf and his two dear friends. 🙂
Have a great rest of the week!

Aaaaah, Friday finally. And I am SO excited about this Friday, because it’s the first Friday of the month, so the new BYOC (Build Your Own Collection) is for sale at The Lilypad. And it’s such a good one!! I seriously couldn’t stop creating with it! Here’s what I made with it.

The template I used on this page is phenomenal. I love how this looks like a journal laying on my table!

This background paper and painted elements are absolutely stunning!

On this page I used a really cool template and clipped some papers to the leaves. So fun!

Another page with the notebook templates… and more fabulous papers! This page is for the 30 Days of Gratitude challenge, I combined the first 2 topics here.

Hello and happy Wednesday! I had fun using some of the items that are 50% off through today at The Lilypad! We got our first snow of the season last week. Only a dusting, which appeared overnight. But it stuck to the ground for a few hours, so it totally counts as first snow of the season.

Have a great rest of the week!

Hello and happy Friday! I am SO glad I was able to fit in a quick stop at the pumpkin patch earlier in the week, since it’s really gotten cold and wet (and snowy even!) around here, and I’d rather stay inside now. 🙂
And I am so happy it’s time for the latest Memory Pockets Monthly collection, because it worked perfectly with my photos!
