Great Escape!

Oh Dear!!!!

I just made an awesome purchase!
I have been a big fan of Angela's from the Button Farm for years... I hope to somday attend one of her amazing weekend retreats. I've purchased quite a few of her mini album kits and I think this new one is going to be one of my favs!



This album and coordinating canvas bag is a beautiful product from Chatterbox. The album is then decorated with products from the Making Memories Great Escape Line. Making Memories sadly only sent this product to production once, so when it is gone, it is gone. This kit includes a Chatterbox Canvas album and bag. Making Memories papers, transparency, rubber stamps, cork letter stickers, canvas tags, flowers, buttons, and ribbons. As always Button Farm kits include written and visual instructions!

I know it's a bit pricey at 60$ canadian / 52usd but you get EVERYTHING in this kit.. papers, embellies and sooo much more.. and the instructions are soo detailed! If you have a chance to spend a few extra bucks.. this is one amazing kit company!

I can't wait to do this mini and insert some pics of our trips!

NOT a Purple Lover!

Alright, I know most scrapbookers love color.. really any color right? Well I must admit i don't! I don't like PURPLE!!! For some reason, it just doesn't do it for me.


I had this beautiful picture of my sister just waiting to be scrapped (again!), and I had a few papers from Rose Moka and these Petaloo flowers that I wanted to use .. and well I started creating a layout and ... i just don't know what it was ... but i think it was the purple!



I am not one to scrap with bling flourishes, and i did enjoy them on this page.. i cut them up in 3 pieces and used them with the flower leaves.. i like that part!

( i can tell people don't really like it cause i only got a few comments at sb.com! hahahah!!! ) so i guess i am not the only one who Doesn't Like Purple! What is it about this color? is it because it's a mix between pink and blue ? or is it because we don't see enough of it?

the question today is .. Do yOu LIkE PUrPle?! ( see my poll above!)

Glamorous!

Today, yes Today is my last day of Vacation ... Sigh. I had such a fabulous week scrappin and just playing online. I did nothing really .... like seriously nothing! I did laundry, dishes, went to a crop, scrapbooked, .... scrapbooked .... and watched So You Think You Can Dance! That's pretty much it. It rained for atleast 5 days .. with fog and cold damp weather. So Monday I am back to work. Am I looking forward to it .. um NO! Really I would love to work from home.. someday maybe!

I played with some Lilybee Papers last night. The photo is of my niece again, and I have no problems finding a title for this one!

Glamorous


I am so enjoying my edge distresser lately. I think every page I've created in the last few weeks has some distressing and circle flowers ... I promise to try something new... soon! HAHAH! I also sprayed some Green Maya Mist on this entire page and used my pop dots for the flowers. I like!

Our Sketch 59 is posted this morning at Creative Scrappers - it's a simple sketch by Me!
Will you try it?




That's All for this morning!
Looks like the sun wants to make an appearance.

A New Mini Album!

Lazy Days of Summer

After creating a few 12x12 layouts, I had left over papers and diecuts from this fabulous Cherry Hill Collection. I used plain chipboard and cut them to fit 4x6 with my first page measuring 4x4.
