Guest Designer

This month I had the honor of working with Dixie Pieces - a monthly kit club that will definitely get your creative mojo flowing. If you're currently in the market for a scrappy kit, you should check Dixie Pieces out!

This month's kit is called Coloring Book and has a lot of bright pops of color paired with black and white papers from your favorite companies. Here's what I did with the kit:








I hope you've been inspired, and don't forget to check out Dixie Pieces!!

March Break

I'm back! It's been a crazy few months of non-stop wedding planning, but I feel like I'm ahead of the game, so back to scrapping! I've been asked to be apart of the team at LCOM to work with their awesome sketches. Seriously, if you're ever in a rut, you need to check out this blog!

This sketch was designed by the talented Natalie Roy:

And here's what I did with it:

It ended taking on a bit of a life of its own due to my stubborness, and not being able to wait for the ink to dry. Yup, I smeared a bunch with the palm. Ah well, I'm a circle lover, anyways!

New Bella Blvd

If you've visited my blog more than a few times, you know that I'm in LOVE with Bella Blvd. Their collections are adorable and always so much fun. And, they've come out with three new mid-releases (for the first time ever!). They're called Winter Wonder, Spring Flings and Easter Things, and Miniature Stickers. Ah, I cannot wait for these to hit stores!

The Good Life

Here's my final layout using the Nantucket collection from Pink Paislee. I had such a great time with this collection and I will definitely be stocking up on some more because I'm just so in love with this line! The soft colors stole my heart along with the fabulous hexagon chipboard pieces - they were just so much fun! And with paper names like "Crab Cakes" and "Lobster Bisque" you really cannot go wrong =P

I'm so excited that I get to play with Pink Paislee's Nantucket this month. The colors are gorgeous and the embellishments in this collection are so much fun. Between the hexagon chipboard pieces and the die-cuts, you're sure to find something that you just love. Seriously, I spent a good hour or so going through the package of die-cuts. It's just jammed packed with goodness - over 120 pieces!

Playful Pup

Whew, I've been busy! Between a crazy work schedule and preparing for Josh's sister's wedding, I haven't had a lot of time to do anything else. But, I did manage to complete a few layouts throughout everything. And, by the way, their wedding was absolutely fabulous!

I love to scrap photos of my pup - I mean, what's cuter, right?! Bella Blvd's collection is perfect and was so much fun to play with. If you have a dog (or a cat), you need this collection. LCOM looks like they're pretty much sold out, but because Bella Blvd never disappoints, you should check out their new collections in store here!!!

This month I'll be working with another collection I've fallen in love with - Pink Paislee's Nantucket. Check back this week to see what I create!

Ormolu

One thing I absolutely LOVE about LCOM is that they're not afraid to bring in different manufactures. I first learned about 4 heures 37 from them, and now I'm learning about Ormolu! Check out all of this deliciousness:
