Butter Toffee and A Freebie

Happy Wednesday all...I love holiday weekends, but boy do they mess with my schedule, not to mention add a vacation day to the mix. Sharla and I have gotten lots of stuff done, but I'm so behind on posting. Today I'm going to show you a layout I created using a new mini kit by Scraps by Andrea called Butter Toffee. Andrea calls it a mini but it has 10 papers and 21 elements. It's full of rich colors that are perfect for scrapping your special occasions or everyday photos.

I used it to scrap an older photo of mom and dad. When I saw the kit I immediately thought is would be perfect for antique photos or older photos. The has an elegance about it that makes any layout look so nice, even simple ones like this one.

Also I created a brag book freebie for you using the kit. I tried to do one that you would be able to use with almost any photos.

So head over to Stuff to Scrap and pick up Butter Toffee and then go to Andrea's blog and check out the links to her CT team, because I'm sure others have done brag book pages as well. I'm a little late, so you may have to go back a day or two on their blogs, but it will be worth it.

Hit the Books & A Freebie

Ok I'm running so behind, considering I've had a long weekend you would think I would be ahead of the game, but packed too much into the days off. But that aside I'm here to show you a layout I made using a new kit by Digi-designs by Nicole. The kit is called Hit the Books and it is perfect for those school pictures from kindergarten to college. It has great colors and wonderful elements.

I pick one of Callie's school photos, I love the smile she is sporting in this photo. The word art is part of the kit, and I think it is really cool.

If you buy the kit this week and use the code HTBAddOn you can get the flairs or worn cardstocks for FREE. Also the bundle for Hit the Books includes everything, so it's like buying the kit and the quick pages and getting everything else for free.

I made a freebie for you it is frame cluster (the one I used in my layout). I hope you enjoy and be sure to head over to Stuff to Scrap and pick up Hit the Books.

And be sure to come back later, I have more to show you and another freebie.

Tooth Cute

Hey all, happy Wednesday all. I'm here today to show you some layouts made with Modern June's new kit called Tooth Cute and Tooth Cute – Add-on. Now talk about a fun kit this one is just too cute, great colors that are good for boys or girls, and elements that are just fun. It is only available at Scrappables this month and it is is 35% off this week.

My first layout is of Tucker, yes he brushes his teeth...ok maybe he just chews on the toothbrush (hehehe). When he was a puppy he found a toothbrush and went to town on it, so when I saw this kit I bought a cheap toothbrush so I could get some pictures of him. I love the toothbrush element.

My second layout is Cole taken several years ago. I wanted a toothy grin and Cole is one of the best at giving me those. His smile is just so engaging. The kit has a nice mix of elements, so you can do none tooth layouts as well.

Make sure you head over to Scrapables this week and pick up Tooth Cute and Tooth Cute – Add-on while they are on sale. I'll be back later with more to show you.
