Lucky You and a Freebie

Happy Thursday all, today I'm going to show you layouts I made with a new kit by Scraps by Andrea. This kit is called Lucky You and it has a matching Cardstock and well. This is a fun kit that can be used for lots of different things, like your St. Patty's photos and then so much more. I love the color combination, green which is a given but there is yellow and orange too, which really work well together.

My first layout is of Tom and Mecca. I think he knows he a lucky guy, and I know the rest of the world knows he is. As you can see the colors all work great together and Andrea has put lots of great elements in, so you can do so many different types of layouts.

My second layout is Cooper enjoying a spring day. He loves this time of year, and it is a challenge to get him to come in at night. He loves being outside and barking at anyone or anything that comes into his world. I love the little leprechaun and hat elements and just had to use them.

My freebie is the frame cluster from Cooper's layout. I thought it was fun and could be used to make a fun layout. Just click on the preview and download, and as always feel free to leave a comment if you want.

Make sure you head over to Stuff to Scrap and pick up Lucky You and Lucky You Cardstock you will count yourself lucky to have them in your stash.

A Lil' Woodsy and a Freebie

Happy Sunday night all, I'm going to show ya'll some layouts I made with a new kit by Digi-designs by Nicole called A Lil' Woodsy. The kit is perfect for scrapping your child asleep, little babies, or the time you spend together playing, and is a great mix of greens, blues and browns.

My first layout is Cole when he was the "Puppet Master". I really like the colors in this kit and thought they worked well with this set of photos. And Cole was so good in this play, he has the best "evil laugh", it made me smile!

My second layout is Callie and she is sleeping on the window seat at my old house. It was a Christmas party, and she got a blanket and pillow and was gone. The funny part is the window seat was in the dining room so she was still in the middle of everything. I love the hanging moon element I used on this layout.

My freebie comes from the second layout. I took the flower cluster and fixed it for you. You can click on the preview to download. And as always, feel free to leave a comment, I always enjoy hearing from my fellow scrappers.

Make sure you head over to Stuff to Scrap and pick up A Lil' Woodsy, it is 35% off this week!!

Come Sail Away

Happy Thursday all, I'm here to show you some layouts I made with Jensen Motley Crew Designs' kit called Come Sail Away. I love going to the beach, there is just something calming about the waves, and this kit is perfect for scrapping your beach/lake photos. It has a great mix of colors and elements that will really highlight your photos.

My first layout is Cole standing at the edge of the water on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I love the colors in the kit because they really work with water photos. And I really love the little bird element, it just screams "beach" to me.

My next layout is a photo of the same beach as well as one of Bodie Lighthouse, which is also on the Outer Banks. It was fall, so the weather wasn't sunny, but it was so calming and relaxing, that I think I would rather visit during that time of year.

So make sure you head over to the store and pick up Come Sail Away soon, because it will be a great addition to your scrapping stash.

March of the Animals and a Freebie

Happy Monday all, today I'm going to show you some layouts I made with a new kit by Scraps by Andrea called March of the Animals a great kit for your photos from your zoo trips and so much more. It is a great set of colors and fun elements.

The first layout is of giraffes. I took the photo at Arbuckle Wilderness. Cole was feeding them out of the back of the van. It was so funny to watch!!!

My second layout is Miss Callie, doing what she does best...text. She was at a conference this past weekend, and I think she tweeted/texted more than anything else.

And I made the frame cluster from the last layout into a freebie for you. I did give you the whole frame, not one that is cut away like I used (hehehe). Just click on the preview and download. And always feel free to leave a comment.

Balanced Life

Happy Tuesday all, three days in row, can you believe it. But today I'm going to show you layouts I made with a kit by Designs by Snowlady called Balanced Life. This is a great project 52/365 kit, it is packed with lots of papers, great elements and even a calendar set for 2011. I love the mix of neutrals with pop colors.

My first layout is Sharla and Callie. The quote is actually from the author of Peter Pan. But both of those girls have brought a lot of sunshine into my life. I love the taupe papers in this kit. It really makes the photos pop.

My second layout is Callie and Cole. It is so hard to get them to take a serious photo, as you can see in this series they are having too much fun. I did this layout for a template challenge, and I love templates that are lots of blocking. It also shows lots of the great papers in this kit.

Rustic Charm

Happy Sunday all, I hope everyone is doing good. Today I'm going to show you some layouts I made with a kit called Rustic Charm and it's matching Rustic Charm Cardstock. I'm lucky that I get to work with lots of different kits by different designers, but this one is fast becoming one of my favorites. I love the colors and elements are a great mix that work well for masculine or feminine layouts.

My first layout I'm using a photo of Angela, a friend's daughter and their new puppy. I love the the reddish brown paper in the kit because it really makes the photos pop. And it doesn't hurt when you have two such cute models.

My second layout is Callie and Tom being silly with a sign Callie made. If you spot Callie "Yetal" on facebook anywhere make sure you tag her. I know my family is crazy and that's ok, because I fit in perfectly.

This is a great kit and would be the perfect addition to your scrapping stash, so head over to Stuff to Scrap and pick up Rustic Charm and the matching Rustic Charm Cardstock soon.
