Good Friend Mini Album

This month I decided to try a mini album using the cutest SU stamp set called, "Good Friend." Here is the cover and the papers behind are a sample of the color palette throughout this little album. Just email me if you would like to see the inside. I made up a couple extra kits if you would like to purchase one for your own pictures. We will be gathering for a workshop this Sunday at my house and you are welcome to join the fun! Talk to you soon and happy scrapping!

Simply Garden Note Cards


Okay, I already posted a layout I made with the Simply Garden Kit pieces I gave at the May workshop, so now I decided to use the remaining pieces to make 8 note cards. Between the 12x12 layout below and the 8 cards here, all I added to the items I gave in the kits were 2 pieces of 12x12 barely banana card stock and 8 note cards. I still have some left over scraps so I can make additional flowers or add embellishments to my layout when I add the pictures. I hope you like them and I am still waiting to see what some of you who attended the workshop created with your kit. Happy Scrapping!!!

May Workshop Layout Idea


Those who attended the National Scrapbook workshop received a layout kit from the Simply Scrapin' Garden Kit, as well as an idea sheet from Stampin'Up! and a page of sample layouts. This is one of the layouts and I just added a couple of personal touches. I still have plenty of paper and die cuts left to make additional pages or cards. I used Barely Banana paper. The hand doodles were done with Always Artichoke and I stamped the title with the Time Well Spent stamp set. I also stamped on the paper, but it is a little light in the photo. Also, I usually doodle a little more after my pictures are added and our sticky die cuts can be moved around as well. Keep in mind though,glue dots and other adhesives are not as forgiving.

I hope you enjoy it and please make sure to send me pictures of your layouts as well. (More to come with the leftovers....)
