Sept Extra layout w/rub ons

I love these little rub ons! With this layout, you get your own packet. I still had plenty of rub ons left over to use on other layouts. Paper is from a previous promo called Cocoa Cafe. Colors are Breeze, Bamboo, and Ocean. I used the Friendship Alphabet again.

Sept Hostess Project

Colors used are Indian Corn Blue, Honey, Autumn Teracotta, and Cocoa. I used the dry embossing technique and sanded the raised images. The flowers were stamped on the back side and then embossed with the stylus. Stamps used were Be True and this month's promo set Friendship Alphabet. I used staz on ink for stamping on my photos.

Family File

So I've been reading Photo Freedom by Stacy Julian to try to help me get organized. She's great! She helps you get out of the mold of chronological scrapbooking and actually get pages done! So one of the things that she suggests is to have a family file with each members' name and have notebooks around the house so when someone says something that you want to record, you just write it down and file it for when you can use it. I'm going to offer this as a workshop for $16. I used the My Acrylix Storage box with the Caprice papers with Crystal Blue Cardstock. Stamps used were Hodge Podge Alphabet and Tiny Typewriter. I used the Cricut Fabulous Finds for "Our Words." Now that I'm ready to record all the funny things that Kylie says, I'm starting to notice to record and I'm actually writing it down! For instance, last night, Kylie said, "Mom come snuggle with me. I want to hold you." Those moments really are priceless.

Meeting Bella

I must admit that I can be a girlie girl at times! I love the combo of pink and black, especially when there is a precious baby to pair it with! This is my niece, Bella. Cleaning out my stash again and had some left over polka dot bulk paper from the Silhouette collection. Colors used are Baby Pink and Colonial White. Stamps are Western Flourishes, Simple Stitches, Tiny Typewriter and Today's Date. I used my cricut Opposites Attract for Bella. Journaling was created with the CTMH font Delighted.

To celebrate National Stamping Month again, I will be offering this layout in addition to the Laid Back layout to make at my house this Wednesday from 6-9pm. Layout is $5 and you get four adorable pewter charms to use on this page or another. A charm is shown on the flower and tied around a letter on the layout. Spots are limited for this one since I only have 5 kits so be sure to RSVP.

Oldie but goodie

To Celebrate National Stamping Month, I'm doing some extra layouts this month. I've had this bulk paper for a long time and I still love it so here's a free layout for my hostess club members this Wednesday night at my house. Not a member? No problem, you can stop by too and complete the layout for $3. I used the Laid Back papers and Dutch Blue and Sunflower cardstock. These papers were perfect for our spring break trip last March.
