Weekend Scrapping!

Most of my week is pretty much swamped with work. When I get off, my top priority is to spend time with the family. Paul has been great making sure things are organized at home and the girls are just the lights of my life! On the weekends, I get a few hours here and there to do some scrapping. Here are some of my latest pages that I've been able to put together over the last few weeks:
The above pages were made with Time 4 My Story and Time 4 Family by Fayette's Designs. The next set of pages are a mish-mash of beach kits pulled together to make our Fourth Anniversary pages. Many of the kits were from Raspberry Road Designs.

Back again....

It's been quite a while since I've been scrapping. Life has been one crazy change after the other. Finally, life is settling down and I'm able to find some time to scrap again. YAY! Tonight, I was able to do a couple challenges. The first was the My Memories Speed Scrap. Pix are of my girls at the Orange County Fair, admiring the super ginormous cat we won on a ring toss game. :) Kits are "Outdoor Play" by Lindsay Jane, "Outdoor Artist" by A-Manda Creations, "Pinwheels and Bubbles" by Peppermint Creative and a couple bows from "Color Me Happy" by Danielle Engebretsen.

The next is my entry for the My Memories weekly challenge. This one is a page that features a four-legged friend. Our's is the little rabbit that lives in our yard. My daughters are constantly looking outside to see if "Bunny" has arrived for his breakfast. :) Kit is "Daffodil Daydreams" by Aimee Harrison.

Hello from Southern Cali!

Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. I've been working in the suburbs for a few weeks, then sent back out to travel. I'm now working in Southern California for what looks like the next 3-6 months. The traveling is rough, but it does allow me one thing...extra time to scrap. So, without further ado...my latest and greatest.

This is the newest collab kit from Albums to Remember Designs and Connie Prince. If you remember last month, they released Teen Boy. Now we have Teen Girl! It's a beautiful kit with lots of fun embellies and colors.


Another fun kit recently released by Albums to Remember Designs is "Orange Bliss". It's a bright and cheery kit, that coordinates with all of the other Bliss kits in her series. I just LOVE it!



One of my favorite kits from Sugar Moon Designs is "Attack of the 50ft Woman"...it's super versatile and just loads of fun to play with. I wanted to go with a monochromatic theme for this page. The layout was inspired by an MMS speed scrap. :)



Finally, last but definitely not least...one of my favorite layouts to date. A soft palette of blues and tans...is perfect for those sweet simple moments. The kit is "Simple Pleasures" by Missy's Bits. It's a gorgeous kit that really shows off your pix nicely.


 Ooooh...and I forgot...there is ONE more page I want to add. It was for the Memory Mixer online crop. I LOVE how it turned out...the pic is one of my favorites from this past St. Patrick's day. LOVE LOVE LOVE! (Embellishments are from Urban Clover by Peppermint Creative and Verde by Seachell.)


Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful week and hopefully I'll have more pages for you in the next couple days!

I got some news!

Sorry I haven't posted much lately. Life has been moving fairly quickly for me on all sides. The first bit of news, I have been accepted on to another Creative Team. I will now be doing layouts featuring kits from Missy's Bits and Sugar Moon Designs, collectively known as "Scrapping Artistry". I'm excited to join up with another group of fantastic people!

Rest assured, I am still on the Albums to Remember Designs, creative team as well. I don't think I could ever leave Barb. I love everything she does!! :)

So, on to the layouts. First off, a new release from Albums to Remember collaborating with Connie Prince. It's called "Teen Boy", there is also a matching word art pack available. Check out this kit, even if you do not have teen boys. Also, both designers have freebies on their FB pages and Connie has a couple on her blog.

OK..now for the layouts. :)


Next are a couple layouts I made for the new team I am on. The first 2 are from Sugar Moon Designs kit "Spring Break"

I received a "Gallery Stand Out" award at Digishoptalk.com for this one. The layout is using Picture Perfect 3 template by Aprilisa


The next one is made with "Chocolate Valentine" from Missy's Bits. This is one of my all time favorite layouts! :)


That's all I have for today, I'll have more as challenges wind down this week and new releases come out!

1/31/2012 - Featured Font: HFF Pessoas Lindas

I'm doing a weekly feature on the Albums to Remember Designs FB page. "Featured Font" - I love fonts and like most of you, I search the free sites for every font I could possibly dream of. And yet, I still see a font on someone's page and have to ask what it is and where they got it! So, I decided to grab some of my favorites and feature them so others can enjoy them as well.

This week's featured font is "HFF Pessoas Lindas". I love this font as it's a nice handwriting style font for journaling, but has a little flair to it. Not only is it great for journaling, but it makes a pretty word art or title as well.

Some great news for your project 52 and 365 folks! First there are a new set of My Memories Page Builders from Albums to Remember Designs. She has packaged them up into bundles for extra savings as well. But what's really great is she has a set of P52 styled Page Builders also!!



They are great!! I did a page using Aqua Bliss and one of the P52 page builders and let me tell you, it was super quick and easy to pull together!!!



There will be a new P52 themed kit released this week to both My Memories and Memory Mixer. This kit will coordinate perfectly with "All In A Day", "Pink Bliss" and "Black Bliss". Together you will have one super huge kit that will be your next "GoTo" kit for nearly all of your scrapping needs!






And now...to the freebie!!! If you haven't done so already, head on over to Albums to Remember Designs and "Like" the FB page. In the Exclusive Fan Freebie tab on the left, you'll find a fun little QP that I made using the Black Bliss and bits from the All in a Day kits.
