Sad Times!

One of my favorite scrap stores has closed :-( 9th & Bloom is no longer. It is a sad day! I had a wonderful time being a part of a wonderful team and I will miss all of the designers and team members. Be sure to look for your favorite 9th & Bloom designer at a new store and be sure you are following them on their blog or Facebook so you can get the scoop on their new "homes".

For the temp-a-holic!


If you are as addicted to templates as I am but don't have the funds to buy a ton of them then just invest in this book and see just how far you can stretch your stash! Suzy Q Scraps, with help from Cheryl of Fiddle Dee Dee Designs, has put together this ebook. Yours truly happens to have a few layouts in there too so be sure to look at the credits below the different layouts ;-)

In Love (with a kit!)




This kit is seriously killing me with beauty! It just had me drooling from the moment I saw it! Here is the page that I did with a busy bee template. It's one of my favorite pages that I have done in a while!

Mix a Kit?!

This idea is new to me but I think it is FABULOUS! The designers at ScrapMatters are given a color panel and a theme and asked to create the different parts of a kit, elements, papers, word art and even templates, etc. What you get is a piece of everyone at SM in one place and you get to pick your favorites of the pieces to work with.

My page using about 5 of the 30 something options available in the ScrapMatters Mix a Kit

Junes kit is beachy and fresh feeling, just perfect for summer!

New at 9th & Bloom!

First Layout for 9th & Bloom!


I felt like a kid in a candy shop this week when I started at 9th & Bloom! I really had to use restraint with my downloads because I just wanted everything, haha! Here is my first layout as a member of the Art Crew! The new kit Boardwalk by Designs by Helly and By Becca was perfect for my California Adventure boardwalk photos and some photos we took on the Santa Monica Pier a while back. The template is by Fiddle Dee Dee and available at 9th & Bloom too while Cheryl is this months guest designer! Now, I need to go find those other photos somewhere on the desktop.

New Teams!

In the last few days I was made some awesome team offers! I am happy to say that I was able to accept two out of the 3. I am now getting creative for DigiscrapAddicts and 9th and Bloom. I started perusing the new releases at 9th & Bloom for this week and my jaw seriously dropped! I am also working on layouts for the Fix at DSA and wow! Have I mentioned lately how much I love scrapping???!!!

Happy Easter!


I hope you enjoyed your Easter celebrations or just a nice leisurely Sunday! We took the kids to see the Easter Bunny yesterday (side note: do not wait until the day before Easter to do this!) The photos came out so cute that I had to edit them (of course!) and scrap them!

I used a fabulous new temp set from Scrapping with Liz - Misc Temps II and the super cute Bunny Treats from Amy Stoffel
