Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze - Simple Stories

Hi everyone!  Today I want to share with you another layout I made from the photos at the Pumpkin Patch.  This is a huge family tradition for us, we have been going every year to the same patch since Brighton was just two years old.  Let me tell you how much he loves going today!  lol  That said, all the children were somewhat cooperative in heading down to take photos.  They know it means a lot to me so....

Anyway....

 Using some older Simple Stories papers, an ancient Karen Foster wood piece, some older woolies from Baisc Grey and finally a resit banner from Heidi Swapp; I came up with this.

I really have been trying to dig through the stash to use up some of the older items I have.  I swear I have enough things to last me the rest of my life.  lol

Hugs.

Ball Drop

Hi everyone!  Today I feel a bit like I am dropping the ball.  So much to do, so much to share.  But for now I wanted to share with you a project I made with the January kit,  Live Life.  I love the Heidi Swap mist that is in this kit and I couldn't resist using it in two different ways on this project.  First I splattered bits of mist on my background paper and then I sprayed my Jillibean letters with it to change their color.

This kit has been so much fun to work with that I know it will sell out soon.  This year for New Years Eve we decided to take it easy and spend time at home with the children.  Just wasn't feeling the party vibe I guess.  Anyway...we made lots of tasty snacks, had some sparkling cider, enjoyed each other's company and watched the ball drop.  So exciting.  lol

The January challenges are up so don't forget to check out the blog post for your chance at some great prizes.  There is a super cute sketch for layouts as well as fabulous card inspiration.

Hugs.

Hello There - The Sampler

Hi everyone! I am back from four days at Disneyland and CHA!  Did you miss me?  hee hee  Well, today I wanted to share with you another project made with the gorgeous January kit, Live Life. from the Sampler.  I really think this has got to be my favorite kit yet.

I have been on a total banner kick lately....just can't seem to get enough of them.  And I have found a new love in the Heidi Swapp Color shine.  It has such a fabulous opacity.  And the colors in this kit...the patterns....swoon.  I think I am in love with Simple Stories.

Be sure and check out the Card and Sketch challenges over on the Sampler blog.  And be on the lookout for some great new products fresh from CHA in upcoming kits!  We have some great things on the way.

Hugs.
