Falling Into Friday

| cristina

Finally Friday! I have a group meeting tomorrow morning at 8 AM with my classmates, but I am still very glad that this week is over. I cannot believe how fast fall is getting here! Today’s new kits at The Lilypad are perfect to document this season! First up, a new collection by Sahlin Studio:

I am so in love with that deep blue color, paired with yellow. And the wood elements in this paper are gorgeous!
Next, there is something very special.. an entire collection by template queen Amy Martin!

This page was so much fun to make! I hope your weekend will be more relaxing than mine, and with lots of scrappy time! 😉

September featured kit by Sahlin Studio

| cristina

The September featured kit on Sahlin Studio’s blog is the gorgeous Apple Orchard! This means that the kit is 30% off this month, and there’s a chance to win a gift card if you make a project with it!

Here’s a card I made for my husband’s first day of school. 🙂

I am itching to get crafty but my schedule is quite crazy at the moment.. but I have plans for Sunday! 🙂

Believe

| cristina

Yay, the end of the week is near! I have a business trip looming though so I won’t get to enjoy the weekend.. Anyway, I do have some good news – it’s Froggy Friday at The Lilypad, and I scrapped!! 🙂 I used this gorgeous collab by Paislee Press and Valorie Wibbens:

and awesome templates by Amy Martin. This page was so much fun to make! 🙂

July BYOC

| cristina

It’s BYOC* time at The Lilypad! Such a fun and versatile color palette this month!
* BYOC = build your own collab

July BYOC Buy More Save More

Here’s what I scrapped with it:

His and Hers journaling cards by Paislee PressThe Damsel Series fonts by Heather Joyce and Valorie Wibbens

 

I had a bit of a hard time coming up with a good background for this next page. I tried light papers first, but then I settled on this paper by Valorie Wibbens (I recolored it), and I love the result! I lowered the opacity on the dot papers by One Little Bird so they look like vellum.

I also made a hybrid card using Sahlin Studio products. I love the aqua, pink and yellow combination.

I added some Glossy Accents on the yellow heart to add a bit of texture.

And that’s all I have for this BYOC at the moment. Happy 4th of July, and happy BYOC to all of you! 🙂

June BYOC

| cristina

Can it be June already?? (Yikes, this means I am now 7 weeks behind on my Project Life... eek! 😉 But never fear, I will catch up, or not, and it’s all good ;)) The good thing about it is that it’s BYOC time at The Lilypad! I have had nil time to play this week, but I managed to squeeze in a quick page. 🙂

Have a fabulous weekend! 🙂

Anniversary Celebrations

| cristina

I have some catching up to do! Our anniversary was a couples of weeks ago, and I scrapped, and I made a mini album! 🙂 All with Sahlin Studio products. 😉

This mini album was totally inspired by the Project Mouse journal date cards. I love how it turned out!

It was so easy and fun to put together (except when I printed on the wrong side of my matte paper.. LOL!). 😉

Are you ready for the week to be over? I sure am, plus Friday is BYOC time at The Lilypad! I love all the gorgeous new products – only a short wait now to see what’s coming! 🙂

I multitasked and designed a page while I was designing this last card – great way to save time and use up these gorgeous pieces of the kit that I loved so much! 🙂

Always Making Something

| cristina

Hello Friday! The weekend couldn’t have gotten here sooner this week! I’ve been so busy! I will have to work during the weekend too, but at least I can do it from home. 🙂 Have you seen the awesome new releases at The Lilypad? I grabbed this gorgeous kit by Paislee Press:

And now, I will let you peek into my very messy craft corner. 🙂

Somehow the desk area always gets covered in piles of stuff while I create. 😉 Is your craft space clean or messy?
