Noel Mignon and Creative Scrappers!!

This month, Noel Mignon is the sponsor for Creative Scrappers! So I had a fun time using the newest kit, Balboa, with the fun sketch from Creative Scrappers!

Here is the sketch:



I used some of my favorite elements from the sketch to put together a layout that was fitting to both my style, and the look I wanted for this layout.

Loved this color scheme that I pulled together from the Balboa kit! So many fun colors mixed with the awesome chalkboard trend!! Here are a few close ups!

Make sure and play along with Creative Scrappers this month for a chance at your own Balboa kit from Noel Mignon!!!

Creative Scrappers Reveal # 268

Happy Mother's Day to all you moms and mamaws out there!! Hope you are enjoying your day. Hopefully I can help that with a little inspiration for you with the newest sketch from Creative Scrappers!! :)

Circles are so not my thing, but once I got started with this sketch, it came together so easy, and I actually really love the finished layout. I used the fun and bright DIY collection from Simple Stories...I had been waiting to dig into this collection, and I am so happy I waited for this layout, was perfect!!!

Creative Scrappers Reveal #265

Hi friends!! I;m here today to share the newest sketch at Creative Scrappers with you!!

So many possibilities!! Love it. Here is my take on this awesome sketch by Kristine!

I tell you what, I had a heck of time getting this photo ( hence why it's hung on the board this week, lol). The photo still ( in my opinion) doesn't do it justice. This sketch was a different look for me, and I really had fun keeping it simple, and this is probably one of my favorite layouts in awhile! Love, love, love this Plus One line by Amy Tan!!!

Thanks for hopping in today!! Have a great Sunday, and take time to create something you love!!

Creative Scrappers REVEAL

Hi Friends!! Happy Sunday! I am back today to share the new sketch that went up at Creative Scrappers, and my inspiration layout.

Love all the the layers and fun little details on this sketch! Jenny did a great job, as always! :)

I had just got some fun new supplies in when I sat down to work on this layout, and I knew that they would be perfect for this one. I used a photo of my girlies and me on our recent girls day out to see Disney Princesses and Heroes on Ice.

I just had fun with this! I picked some of my favorite papers from the Dear Lizzy Daydreamer 6x6 pad, embellishments from the same collection and some Crate Paper...and just had fun. This sketch is perfect for that, so easy to interpret so many different ways. I know its one I can use over and over again! Love that!

Creative Scrappers Reveal #262

Hi friends!! Happy Sunday! I don't know how the weather is where you are, but here it is cold and snowy..perfect weather for scrapping the day away, and I have just the thing to inspire you! The newest sketch from Creative Scrappers!


Sketch #262 is so fun with the chevron background, and it leaves it open for so many different interpretations! Here is my take:

I changed it up a bit and used just one larger photo instead of the three small...when I saw the sketch, I instantly thought of this photo, so I had to figure out how to make it work (I already had it printed lol) I used the fun Notable collection from We R Memory Keepers, which I am so in love with! The colors are fabulous!

If you would like a chance at a prize from this month's sponsor:

Simply upload your layout based on this sketch or sketch #261 by February 28th! Have a great day, and take time to create something you love!

Creative Scrappers Reveal #261

HI friends!! I'm here today to share the new sketch that went up at Creative Scrappers!! Another great one!!!

I chose to go SUPER simple with my layout this week...was kind of a nice change...not sure I'll stick with this simple style, but it was a fun change. Here is my layout:

I used the Autumn Crisp line from American Crafts. I love the colors in this collection, and thought it went really good with my photo. Just a few simple layers, and I called it good. :)

Creative Scrappers Reveal!

Hi everyone!! Happy Sunday! I'm excited to share the new sketch that went up at Creative Scrappers today, and my inspiration layout.

If you have been around here for any amount of time, then you know that circles are my scrappy nemesis. I am not sure what it is about them, that always gives me a struggle. So, I switched it up a little bit!

I had so much fun with this layout, and I think it is my new favorite! I spent a while fussy cutting all those frames out, but I think it was so worth it, the exact look I was hoping for! :)

Now, head over to the Creative Scrappers blog, and see all the inspiration from the design team, and get all the details for your chance at a awesome kit from Crazy Kit Mondays! You have until September 30  to comment, and link up your take on the sketch!!

Have a great day, and take time to make something you love!





Squirrelly Girly

Hi everyone!! Happy Saturday! Today my second post went up over at the Noel Mignon blog! I have been having so much fun with this kit, I still have a few more projects to share over the course of the month!

Here is my layout for this week, again using the Our Summer kit.

Head over to the Noel Mignon blog to get the story behind this "squirrelly" layout! :)

Have a great weekend, and take time to create something you love!! Oh, and check in tomorrow, for the first Creative Scrappers reveal!! 

Hello Awesome

I have a fun layout to share with you today...a just for fun layout at that! I ordered in some of the new Bella Blvd Snapshots line. I loved the colors in it, and thought it was just a super fun collection.
When it came in, my mind instantly went to this photo, and I thought they would be a match made in scrapbooking heaven. :)

 

Please ignore the brightness of this photo, somehow my white balance on my camera got turned to fluorescent, so there will be a few photos like this. I don't have the extra time right now to retake and edit.

 

This was a fun, just for the heck of it, photo from Colten's 6 month photo shoot. It doesn't really have any story that goes with it, I just think its adorable, so it made its way into the album. :)

 

Mark your calendars for this Sunday! The new sketch will going live at Creative Scrappers! Its a good one, and I pretty much love my layout, so hope you stop by, check it out, and play along! If you visit the blog, here, you can get a preview of the talent of the new design team! Great feature up on all our favorite layouts! I am extremely honored to be a part of that team! :)

 

Also, don't forget the 25% off code is still good over at Whimsical Twist until Sept. 30th. Just use code AUTUMN13 at checkout!

 

Have a great day, and take time to create something you love! :)
