Happy Valentine's Day!

With Valentine's Day fast approaching - I thought I'd do last year's photos (even though its out of order and I'm not even caught up to that point :( Sigh...Someday - right? Anyways - Char came out with this AWESOME heart quilt-like template - I just HAD to use it! It was just too fun. I combined it with a bunch of other of her super fun goodies - and this is what I came up with! I just love how it turned out - I love it when things just go together for me!! Here is the template that started the page - it's called "A Little Piece of My Heart" The majority of the goodies aren't released yet - they will be released to this Buffet starting February 1st! Check it out! Stalk it - they will be $1 on the 1st of February!! Now of course I need more than just one photo for my page - I remembered this fun template from her "Stand Out From the Crowd" template pack. I hadn't gotten a chance to use this particular template from the pack yet - so it was perfect! And I loved the heart paper in this pack (I remember using it in the past!) So I dug it out of my supplies and did a little recoloring! And I used to HATE alphas - now I can hardly scrap a page without one - so I went rummagine some more through her goodies - and came across this! How perfect - it even came in brown so I didn't have to recolor! I think that about sums up my page! I hope you enjoy it! :D

Who-Village releasing at GingerScraps!

December is here! Christmas is just around the corner - and things are chaotic as ever in my house - how about yours? Between Halloween, MN Hunting, WI Hunting, Thanksgiving, and leaving for Arizona in 13 days - things are CRAZY. Not to mention I know have two of my three children on amoxicillin - boy are we having fun yet?!

Anyways - with December brings a new buffet at GingerScraps!! I had the privilege to work with a bunch of the pieces this week - and I must admit - they're all AWESOME! I had such a blast working with them - it put me in the Christmas Spirit (despite the craziness at my house!) Here are a few of the items I worked with (all images should be linked to the store):






And here is one page I created using these pieces (and a few others!) My Little Grinch - she looks so young in this page! Hard to believe this was 3 years ago alraedy! I think we need another outfit like this - what do you think?! (hint hint GRANDMA!) And here's another 2 page LO that I made using a bunch of other pieces
And last but not least - heres a link to all the buffet pieces - did I mention they are only $1 EACH! Hurry and grab them NOW!!

2012 Calendar Templates

So I made some calendar's last year for Christmas gifts - and I thought they turned out pretty darn cute (if I do say so myself!) I've debated back and forth about doing them again this year - and had decided maybe not - not sure if its good to give away calendars year after year - thought maybe it would get boring? I don't know - any thoughts (comments APPRECIATED!)

Well then I was inspired to use Jen's (from Graham like the Cracker) 2012 Calendar Bottom Templates - I had this great idea to turn one of the LOs I created into a calendar bottom!

And this is what I came up with - didn't it turn out SUPER CUTE?!? I thought so too! ;)


And here are the templates - linked right to Jen's store - so go over - pick them up yourself & get cracking on some Christmas Gifts!

Graham Like the Cracker is BACK!

Some exciting news for you today!! Jen is BACK! I've been missing her lately - she's been busy making all sorts of homebaked goodies - but she found some time to design! She made three different pieces for the Make a Kit at Scrap Matters - (all images are linked to her store!)






I of course JUMPED at the chance to work with her goodies again! I participated in the October Scraplift challenge at Scrap Matters - and came up with this:


I also used the ellies from this Wyld Web Design's kit (recolored the witch's hair slightly :))


It was fun to work with Jen's goodies again - I hope she has time to design more stuff soon!

Strive for Five - Template Mini-Pack

I threw my back out last weekend - so i didn't get to do as much scrapping for iNDS as I woukd have liked (or at all this week for that matter!) But because Char (from Wyld Web Designs) came out with these perfect multi-photo templates I was at least able to get one page done - and I really like how it turned out!


Here is Char's mini-template pack - available exclusively at Scrap Matters


I used this amazing kit by Jen from Graham like the Cracker called "For Him"


And to coordinate with the kit are these cool Worn Papers! I used these also!

Here is the super fun LO I created with 3 of the goodies found in the grab bag (Date Me: Get in Line, Dandelion Daze Kit, Rockin’ the Layouts: Volume 5 – Round the Block Template Pack).

It's not my typical (lots of photos) type page - but I LOVE how it turned out. I can't wait to scrap with this stuff again!
