Wrapping Up June

I can't believe that June is almost over.  Since I spent a lot of it visiting Sharla in the hospital, I got very little done.  But I did manage to get a few pages completed.  Also for those family and friends that follow this blog Sharla is doing great!!!! She started back to work this week part time and will go full time mid next week.  She was ready, sitting home all day isn't fun when you can't do much. We took mom's electric wheelchair to her office to use, so she can stay off of her foot as much as possible.

My first page to show you is one I made with It's His Birthday Value Bundle by Trixie Scraps Designs.  I love the mix of colors and elements.  I used photos of Cole being silly stringed on his birthday. That was one tradition that was missed this year because Sharla went into the hospital on his birthday.

The next layout using Spring Fling Value Bundle by Trixie Scraps Designs.  I love the soft colors of this one not to mention the wonderful flowers.  I used picture of Ariella from her birthday party.  I didn't get many photos of her smiling (I think was was a little overwhelmed). She is definitely a cutie when she does smile.

And my last layout uses Vacation Bible School by North Meets South Studios (aka Trixie Scraps Designs and Designs by Connie Prince). This kit is such fun, the colors are bright and cheerful and the elements are perfect for your VBS photos.  I used some of Cole from a couple of years ago when he was part of the VBS team acting out stories for the kids.

Ok that wraps it up for today, make sure you head over to Trixie Scraps Designs and pick up these wonderful kits soon!!!!

Busy June

I had planned a busy June, but it was going to be doing things like scrapping and quilting, not sitting in a hospital room, but plans change.  For those of you who are friends and family that follow this blog, Sharla is doing much much better and we hope to have her home soon.  But in the mean time I have gotten a little scrapping done and today I'm going to show you what I've done.

First up using June Templatetopia by North Meets South Studios and Rescue Me by Trixie Scraps Designs is my Tucker misses his Shar Shar page.  And he really does miss her!  I love the big photo templates, and this set is really wonderful.

Next up is a layout I did using Trixie Scraps Designs' Gotta Get It pieces called King of the Pride. Now talk about fun, I love these pieces.  The colors are rich and deep and she did a wonderful job with the elements.  I used some photos we took at Arbuckle Wilderness a couple of years ago.

And last for today is a layout I made using Bratitude pieces by Trixie Scraps Designs. This is a great kit to scrap those bratty kid pics and so much more.  I love the papers in this one, they are simply awesome!!!!  I used a photo of a brat I know, Angela.  Ohhhh ok she really isn't that much of a brat, but she has her moments.

I would suggest you head out and pick up the kits for your stash soon!!!!  They are all wonderful and I know you will be able to do lots with them!!!!!

iNSD and Lots of Goodies

Did you know that today is iNSD (International Scrapbook Day) which means lots of sales, challenges, prizes and so forth.  Unfortunately I'm working and broke, so not much shopping or games for me, but I love to look.  If you are interested in digital scrapbooking this is a great weekend to get some deals.  Today I'm going to show you some layouts I made with kits by the wonderful Trixie Scraps Designs. She has a 50% off sale going on this weekend so you really need to visit her store.

First up is May Templatetopia by North Meets South Studios (aka Trixie Scraps and Connie Prince).  I love their templates, they make putting together a layout super simple. But they layout still look wonderful.  I also used Heart Of A Friend Bundle, because the colors in that kit just make me happy.  The photos are of Sharla's log cabin quilt.  We just finished a class and I think her's turned out super!!!!

My next two layouts use Trixie's Grab Bag for iNSD called Social Butterfly. I think she hit this one out of the ball park.  The colors are wonderful and the elements are just great.  Plus the grab bag has page starters. I don't normally use them, but I couldn't resist.  The second layout went together in about 5 minutes, because all I had to do was add photos and a few touches.  Both of these layouts feature the biggest social butterfly in my life...Ms Callie!!!!

And lastly is a layout I made using Spring Fling pieces. These are Trixies pieces for the Ginger Scraps May Buffet.  I love the soft colors with the grey, a wonderful mix.  I used photos from Ariella's 2nd birthday party. She was a little overwhelmed by Chuck E Cheese, so she wasn't the happiest of little girls.

Make sure you head over to Trixie's Store and pick up some of her wonderful goodies this weekend while they are on sale!!!!!!
