I got a GSO!

So I scraplifted a page to make my title page in preparation of getting my 2011 P365 book printed. I LOVED how it turned out - and apparently so did the gals at Me So Scrappy! I got a Gallery Stand Out for my page! Check it out! To create this page here are the products I used. I used this adorable "Capturing Memories" kit by Marie H Designs. I love the colors and elements included with this kit, I'm excited to use it again! This is on sale currently at GingerScraps for 40% off! Making it only $2.39! Grab it before the sale ends (click on preview to be taken to the store) And then I've been eyeing up this set of adorable alphas for a few weeks and was THRILLED when I realized that they matched this kit pretty much perfectly! This is going to be my new "go-to" set of green alphas - they are all so fun and funky! This too is on sale at GingerScraps for 33% off - making it only $2! That's less than a dollar an alpha! (each of the 3 sets include letters, numbers & select special characters) And if you'd like to check out the LO I got my idea from click here! Feel free to click on my LO - you will be taken to my GingerScraps Gallery - you can view my credits - and even leave me a comment! :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!
