September Templatetopia

Can you believe it is almost September, I can't believe how fast time is flying these days. Today I'm going to show you the layout I created using North Meets South Studios (aka Trixie Scraps Designs and Designs by Connie Prince) September Templatetopia. It is a great mix of templates this month, with some really cool blended ones. Just look at the linked preview.

I used Rescue Me for my kit and did photos of Tucker. I love blended photos, but can never get them to look right, unless I use a wonderful template like in this set.

Make sure you head over to one of Trixie Scrap's stores and pick up September Templatetopia. For the month of September only it is $3.99 for 16 templates.

Happy Homebody

Ok I admit it, I am a happy homebody. I would be content to stay there for days on end, but it seems like I never get to spend as much time at home as I would like. But that is not why I'm here today, nope I'm going to show you the layout I made with Happy Homebody by North Meets South Studios (aka Trixie Scraps Designs and Designs by Connie Prince). It is a fun kit perfect for scrapping your moving photos, your neighborhood, or just about anything. Just look at the linked preview to see all the goodies.

I scrapped some of the photos we took while building the house. I focused on some of the ones with Callie in them. I think she was as excited as we were about the house, and she had a grand time walking through it as it was built. I really love the colors in this kit, because they are a nice mix that go with almost everything. And the elements are just too cute.

Make sure you head over to Trixie Scraps Design Store soon because Happy Homebody is on sale right now for 30% off!!!!!

Apples for Teachers and Rise To It

Before I show you the goodies for today, I really want to say thank you to all my friends and family who have kept me in their thoughts and prayers during this tough time. Your love and support has made this process bearable.

Now on to more happier topics. Today I am going to show you layouts I made with Trixie Scraps Designs two newest kits. The first is Apples for Teachers and it is $1.00 per piece until tomorrow. It is her GGI pieces at Gotta Pixel. I love the colors and the mix of elements. And in her trademark style you could use the kit for all kinds of layouts. Here is a preview of the so you can some of the goodies, and it is linked to her store.

And here is the layout I made using a photo of Ms. Callie. She may be more grown up, but she still has the same smile!!! I love the word arts that came with this kit!!!!

Next up is her GAB pieces at Scrapbook Bytes called Rise To It. Now I love the colors of this one, and it is just paced with great stuff including lots of flowers and ya'll know I love flowers. Here is the preview of the elements, and it is linked to her store.

The photo on this one is Callie and her beau Beau. I will say I'm impressed with him. He came up with her to support her during mom's viewing and service and that is just what he did. He got a trial by fire, in he had to meet everyone all at once, but he stayed by her side and I was impressed. Of course, he is no dummy, he know a prize when he sees one. Sharla got this photo after the service, I loved that they could still laugh, because laughter makes everything easier.

Make sure you head over and pick up the pieces to Apples for Teachers and Rise To It soon, because the special prices won't last long.
