Into the Wild We Go!

Hi friends! It has been a very long time since my last post, so let me update you on my situation. I had micro discectomy surgery on my L5 at the end of June. The surgery took a full 2 hours, as the herniation was massive. Because all the nerves were so squished, it not only caused me great pain, but also impaired my memory, cognitive ability, and stamina. I felt like I was in a fog all day every day. Recovery has been excruciatingly slow, but I am simply THRILLED to report that I feel almost back to my normal self after 11 loooooooong months. WOOHOOOOO!!!!!

So, here is Into the Wild. I know that it has sold out and retired, but for those of you who already purchased the paper/kit, I hope you can use these ideas. And, for any of you that missed it because you were so busy creating memories this summer, I do have precut page kits available.

I ADORE this kit! It is perfect for any outdoor activities – if you don’t have any little ones or boys to scrap, you can simply cover up the word “little” on the second layout with the word “great” or “mighty” or just leave those images off all together. I plan on using the Dream BIG layout for pictures of my dog, Rosie…. I am simply in love with her….

My next kit will be Craft On and it will be out later this month. After that, I need to know if you want me to move into Hawthorne or Every Little Thing (new kits will only have 3 layouts since the packs are smaller) or go back to Sweet Girl. I also have Oh What Fun from last Christmas that I could do…. Please let me know what will work best for you!

Feels Like Home – it’s about TIME!!!!

Hey there, good lookin’!! I hope you are all enjoying this CRAZY time of year! Graduations, weddings, holidays, summer break, yard work, gardens, summer vacation – don’t forget to take lots and lots photos!! Make those memories while the weather is good so you can scrap them later on.

I know – it has been FOREVER since my last post and I am so very, very far behind. But, the good news is that Feels Like Home is still available for purchase if you didn’t already get it. I purposely didn’t do big titles on these layouts because there are so many pictures you can use on them that I didn’t want to limit your imagination! Weddings, anniversaries, prom, ancestry, special occasions, and of course – your home! Black and white or vintage photos will look SCRAPTABULOUS on these layouts if you can’t match the colors in the kit. I tried to keep the green down to two layouts so you can bring in any color you want with your photos.

The next kit that I will be doing is Into the Wild followed by Craft On.

I chose not to use the Watercolor Die-cuts that came with the Workshop because I couldn’t find my markers. Honestly, there are so many accents in this kit that I didn’t even miss them! I will, however, try them out when I find my markers and use them on some cards.

Sooooo Much to be HAPPY about!

Long time, no talk, my friends! I have MISSED you all so much! So, let me update you a little on my current sitch. My pain level has improved about 60%, so I am now able to sit and create again (albeit slower than usual)! There is still a long way to go for full recovery, and surgery is not yet off the table, but we’re hoping for some success with alternative methods. Turns out I have multiple disc problems and spinal stenosis, so I am literally a HOT MESS of issues.

I decided to create with So Much Happy because let’s be honest, when you are feeling down and low it is so easy to sink into that darkness. I am learning to focus on the HAPPY and to be grateful for little things and small changes. So, this kit helped fuel my happy thoughts with bright colors and bold designs. Lots of possibilities for photo themes, including pictures of your furry friends!

With Spring Break and two dance competitions coming up this month, I am going to be running short on time. I can either create with I Heart Us or Feels Like Home. Drop me a note and let me know which one you would most like to see and the kit with the most votes will be the one I complete. Thanks!

‘Tis the Season – It’s Christmas Time!

HO HO HO and Merry Christmas, friends! It truly is the happiest (and stressiest) time of the year! I have finally finished all my decorating inside and out at our new home, but I have yet to do any shopping. Can you say FREAKING OUT???

So maybe that is why I just love the simplicity and classic color theme of this paper collection! I tried to keep it simple and allow your pictures to do the story telling. I am not sure that I will complete our second Christmas kit (Oh What Fun pink and green collection) before the end of the year, but I will do something with it because I already have all the supplies! LOL Take lots of pictures and enjoy this holiday season with your family and friends – and don’t forget that these papers retire on December 31, so make sure to get your order in so you don’t miss out!

Grateful Heart Celebrates Friends and Family!

Whew!!!! Time is a-flying by, isn’t it? We just celebrated Halloween and now all the stores have gone full blown Christmas. Ummm, people….. let’s not forget the end of autumn and Thanksgiving! I am simply *not ready* to HO HO HO yet!

This page kit is designed to help you preserve what you love best about this time of year. I love the rich colors in this kit – it makes it ideal for family photos. I also think black and white photos will be STUNNING on these pages! We had family pictures done a few years ago that are going to be perfect on the I Love Us layout – can’t wait to get them printed and scrapped.

Hello, Pumpkin! You are BOO-tiful!!!

Happy Halloween, my friends! I absolutely LOVE this time of year. My house is all decorated and I have pumpkins, straw bales, and mums on my porch. Fall decor just makes my heart happy. And, of course, cozying up in my sweatshirts and blankets! Such a pleasant relief from the hotness of summer.

Now – what I do not like about Halloween time is the scary GORE! I will freely admit I am a total wimp and do not like Haunted Houses or being scared. My daughter and I were almost in tears trying to get out of Six Flags during Fright Night – we are sooo dumb!

I totally love that Hello Pumpkin is cute and fresh and fun! I purposely created one layout just for pumpkins so you could take pictures of the pumpkin patch, pumpkin food, pumpkin carving, or even your little pumpkin! Two layouts can be for Halloween parties or trick or treaters. The last layout is just FUN. Lots of possibilities for photos, not even Halloween!

Beautiful Boutique is Here!

Happy September, my beautiful friends! Ahhhhh….. It is my favorite time of year – getting back into a routine, pulling out the sweaters and sweatshirts, football games, and gettin’ CRAFTY. I truly appreciate a break from the oppressive 90 degree weather! Us Northerners are just not meant to be in a constant state of heatstroke. LOL

I hope you all have had a chance to check out our brand new Holiday Expressions Idea Book. It’s full of new paper collections, stamps, colors, and even a Monthly Page Kit Subscription!

First up from the new Idea Book is out Boutique Workshop Your Way. I like that I was able to create 2 layouts that feel soft and dreamy and 2 different layouts that are fun and flirty. Lots of different options for photos and themes, I am sure you have some memories that would look GREAT on these pages!

Celebrate SUMMER with Central Park!

WOW!!! It has been a LONG time since I have been able to get crafty! Learning a completely new state is rough, I admire those of you that move regularly. I finally have my house set up to a point where I can stop decorating and planning and shopping and assembling and stressing – so it is back to my craft room I go! I will have Documented out next week in preparation of our new catalog releasing on September 1!

Central Park is WAY WAY fun! I love the primary colors – if it is a little bright for you, try pairing it with black and white photos or taking out some of my layers. I LOVE the Summer Bliss layout I created that will be perfect for the pool or beach! I hope you all are busy creating memories this summer, but don’t forget to grab these papers before they are gone. Everything retires August 31 and are while supplies last!

Enjoy the Outdoors with Fresh Air Workshop!

For the very first time, I am coming to you from MASSACHUSETTS!!!! Our movers dropped off our stuff on Tuesday and I am surrounded by boxes, but we now have internet so it’s GAME TIME!

I absolutely LOVE the Fresh Air kit! Take lots of pictures of your outdoor adventures this summer, cuz these pages will be PERFECT! Browns, greens, and blues – pretty much makes me want to ditch this computer and start exploring my new backyard. Also, I do want to apologize for the grainy photos, I had to take them in a hotel and the lighting was rough.

The boxes in my craft room have not been touched yet, but I do have the supplies for 3 page kits somewhere in there. Please allow 2 weeks for me to find them and cut them for you. Trust me when I say that I CANNOT wait to set up my new space, but the rest of my house has to come first. Adulting rots…..

Celebrate Friends with the Beautiful Friendship Page Kit!

Happy National Scrapbooking Month – again! I think this is a record for me, getting 2 kits out in one week! Whoop Whoop!!!

Beautiful Friendship is such a pretty kit! I created 3 layouts that are perfect for celebrating friends and sweetness. And seriously, if you don’t have pictures of a tea party, what better excuse is there to have one?? How fun would it be to get together with the girls and have a tea (or any hot drink) party? Memories that will last a life time…

The last layout can be used for anything – even boy pictures! I LOVE this layout, and the colors just happen to match the University of Michigan, so I think I’ll be using some pictures from the last game we attended.

I will be working on the Fresh Air kit next, and it will be released by June 10. The movers show up on June 11, so I have to have all my creating done before then. They are are going to FREAK when they see all my crafting stuff!!! LOL
