Graduation Advice - the Sampler and Zutter


Hi everyone!  Today I want to share with you a little mini album I made using my April kit from the Sampler and my Zutter Bind-it-All.  One of my son's best friends is graduating next month so I made this little mini album for him.  It is full of advice that is most often attributed to Bill Gates.  (I found the list here)


I love the neutral colors in this kit and the mix of alphabets in the kit made for great title work.
 Oh, and the gorgeous fabric tape.....
 and brads....
 I used lots of fussy cutting to embellish my pages.  I really love how I can make anything into a mini album with the help of my Bind-it-All.
Don't forget, yesterday we posted the new sketch and card challenges on the Sampler blog.  You don't want to miss your chance to win some fabulous prizes.  Be sure and check it out.  


And, before I go....How about another sneak at the June kit from the Sampler...
I know I can't wait for mine.


And check out my project over on the Bind-it-All blog.  A fun little wine journal.


Hugs.

More Cruising


Good Morning everyone!  If you are looking for the blog hop, please scroll down to here.  There is still time to play for your chance to win some great prizes.

If you have been playing along with the blog hop, I know you have seen how amazing the April kit from the Sampler is.  The colors and embellishments are gorgeous.   Today I wanted to share with you another layout I made of our day in Ketchikan, Alaska.


The colors and textures in this kit are amazing.  I love the mix of burlap, twine and ribbon.  The Prima resins are so fun.  And would you like to know what else is amazing?  How about the May kit, Two Scoops!

Don't forget, there is still time to enter the sketch and card challenges here on the blog.

I hope you are having a great day.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cruising with The Sampler

Hi everyone!   I hope you are having a great day!  I can't believe how fast time is flying these days.  School is almost over and I am planning our summer vacation.  What?  I haven't even come close to scrapping all of last years summer vacation.  lol  Like that will ever happen.

Anyway.....Today I wanted to share with you a layout I did using the April kit from The Sampler.  I know, I keep going on about how much I love this kit, and I do.  It has been so versatile.  A Book of Me page, pictures of Ainsley and Lili playing in the yard, and today....

The view of Ketchikan, Alaska from aboard the Disney Wonder.  It was quite an overcast day, but the town was beautiful none the less.  And these papers from the April Sampler kit worked just perfectly.  Lots of different textures and soft colors.....sigh.  And you know how much I love the resins and trinkets.

This Friday The Sampler is hosting a blog hop...a little sampler of The Sampler.  So be sure to check in here.  I will have a great prize to give away (as will all the designer's on the hop).  So, be sure to check us out at our new blog.

Well, back to work...

Hugs.
