Scrappy Girl Design Team!!!!!

I just HAD to post this right away.....I was selected to be on the design team at Scrappy Girl Designs!!!!!!!!!! This was the first time that I've ever even applied to be on a design team and honestly I didn't even think I would come close to making it. I'm shaking I'm so excited!!!! Whew! So what does this mean? Each month I will be sent the Scrappy Girl monthly kit. My "job" is to create layouts, altered projects, cards, whatever with the products. These will get posted in the gallery for everyone to see. I will also be an active member on the message board---posting comments, challenges, etc, etc.

Get ready---my first kit is being sent right away! I have lots to do!!!!!

I Love Mail!!!

Ok, so I am having the BEST mail week ever!!! First I received my kit from Moments to Remember. I haven't created anything yet, but I have a 2-page layout in the works. Hopefully, I will finish it tonight and I can post it tomorrow. Yesterday I received 2 packages--yes 2!!! The UPS truck came and delivered the March MemoryWorks Express Kit. Lots of really fun numbers and green paper. I have some pictures that I need to print up for that. Lastly, I received an RAK from Dawn at Scrappy Girl Designs. An RAK in scrappin' cyberworld is "Random Act of Kindness". Dawn hosted a little challenge to learn more about her and the first person to answer correctly won some free scrappin' supplies. I WON!! She totally spoiled me with this AWESOME kit she put together. I am in scrappin' heaven with all this new stuff!!! Hmmmm.....what should I do this weekend???

Here's a picture of all the goodies Dawn sent me. See what I mean?! Go check out her blog--she has some amazing pictures in there.

Spring Picture

A fun layout with my son's Kindergarten Spring Picture. The photo package included a couple pictures in black and white and another with a metallic finish on it. Thought I'd put them together on the same page for a little contrast--even though they are the same picture!


Supplies: September 07 MemoryWorks Express kit paper, file folder, and letters, Scenic Route chipboard letters, chipboard @ symbol, Making Memories brads, Fancy Pants & Autumn Leaves acrylic stamps.

Moments to Remember March Kit!

Lately I've been spending a lot of time at Moments to Remember. It's been fun meeting new people, getting new scrapin' inspiration, and talking "shop". I was super excited to see the new March kit revealed this past weekend. Luckily I ordered mine just in time before it was sold out! It arrived in the mail today and I'm soooo excited to create with it! Such great spring colors without lots of pastels. A really cute bird stamp too! Check it out:

Thank You Card

A simple basic card.... I completed this card as a challenge at Scrappy Girl Designs. The challenge was to create a card with cardstock only(no patterned paper) and 1 rub-on, nothing else. I dug through my scraps pile to determine my colors. The star was cut with my Coluzzle and star template, Basic Grey "thank you" rub-on and a little doodling--DONE!!

Ruckus

I just had to scrap a few photos of my husband hangin' at a hockey game. As the journaling says "For most of the winter you can find Tim right here".

This challenge was to create a layout without any patterned paper--cardstock only! It also needed to include 3 different ribbon and 2 circles. I thought the different colored cardstock kinda looked like camouflage once I was done. Again--you don't need a lot of "stuff" make a cool layout!

Me!

A layout about ME! This layout goes to show you that you don't need a ton of paper to create a cool layout. A few scraps is all you need. I really like this layout because is simple--just like me!

Supplies: Cosmo Cricket- Dutch Girl patterned paper, tags, and chipboard, Heidi Swapp Ghost letters, white acrylic paint, white ribbons, and misc rub-ons/sticker sayings.

Home

Only a couple more challenges left to post from the Scrappy Girl Designs CyberCrop (yes that was LAST weekend--I'm a little behind). This challenge was to create a layout using 10 different fonts in the title. At first I was like--wha? But in ended up being really easy AND I really like how it turned out. I couldn't believe that I actually had 10 different black letter fonts! I have more letters than I thought!

Supplies used: January MemoryWorks Express Kit and misc. alphas.

"Charmed"
