January BYOC!

First Friday of the month… It’s BYOC time at The Lilypad!! I am one for bright colors all the way, but I have to say that this soft palette really grew on me!

Here’s my first page:

There’s also lots of fun going on this month at The Lilypad..

 

Will you be playing along?

Black Friday

I’m a bit late in posting this, because Black Friday = putting up the tree for me! 🙂 But there are some very sweet deals to be had online today! I’ll start with a Christmas kit, since I am in Christmas mode now that the tree is up. 🙂

Seriously, isn’t this the perfect Christmas kit?? I made two tags with this gorgeous kit.

And I also made a free printable with a flattened version of both tags that is available on the Sahlin Studio blog. 🙂 Enjoy!

Check out all the sales and promotions going on at The Lilypad!

Next up, a kit by Jenn Barrette – I made a card with it,

and a page too!

Finally, a wintery kit by Mari Koegelenberg. And here’s my page – we got snow early this year!

How was your Black Friday? 🙂

DYD 2013

As I promised, here is what I have put together so far for this year’s December Daily album using the Document Your December products at The Lilypad.

Truth be told, I have an excess of Christmas paper products already, but as soon as I saw these digital cards I knew I had to get them printed out and into my album. They are just too cute not to use!

This year I will make things simple and use a pocket page album. A Handbook album by Studio Calico to be exact. I won’t be premaking pages, but I did steal a few photos from last year’s album to show how these cards will look like in the album. 🙂

We have already gotten snow this year so I’m hoping in a whiter Christmas than we had last year.

I always love including a calendar card towards the beginning of my album.

The colors of this collection are so much fun!

These cards may very well be my favorites of the bunch.. although it’s hard to pick a favorite! 🙂

This definitely gets me even more in the mood for Christmas! Only a little over two weeks to December now..

I’ll be back tomorrow with a couple more DD things. 🙂

Document Your December

The new Document Your December (DYD) releases at The Lilypad have gotten me in the mood for Christmas! I have an exam tomorrow morning, so I have to keep this post short and sweet.. but I will be back tomorrow evening to show you the first printed bits for my 2013 December Daily album. 🙂 In the meantime, check out the DYD section in the store, and here’s a digi page I made.

Alas, I am off to a statistics exam this morning, but if you have better luck than me and have the chance to hop on in the forums, you’ll find fun games and prizes! Including my personal favorite, Kiss the Frog. 🙂 Happy DSD!

Happy Wednesday!

The month is almost over.. DSD (digital scrapbooking day) is coming up at the end of this week (lots of celebrations planned at The Lilypad!), and the November BYOC is being released on Friday.. But in the meantime, you can take advantage of the 50% SOSN sale through Wednesday. 🙂 Here’s a page I made with the products on sale.

I love the autumn colors so much!
See you Friday! 😉

Capturing Fall

I have some very exciting news to share today! The designers at The Lilypad have put together an amazing collab, and it’s free this weekend!

Just hop on over to Facebook and collect all the pieces. I’m telling you — it’s worth it! This kit is jam packed, and I seriously squealed out loud a few times as I was going over the gorgeous content!

Here’s my first page with it – the bright colors were just perfect with my fall pictures!
