june's page

here you go with another calendar page! (hope you're not getting sick of them)
The papers are from Scenic Route (the halloween collection I think?). It came in a box of goodies I got for having a layout published a while back. I haven't scrapped any of Jack's baseball pictures so it was fun to do this one...kind of inspired me to do a few more or at least to want to do a few more.

I'm taking Karen Russell's online photography course and it's sucking up all my time (in a good way!) so I haven't done a ton of scrapping lately! And then I took the day off to have coffee and see a movie with a friend. We saw It's complicated and it was a hoot. I also got carded when I bought my tickets...I'm 35 people and they carded me for an R movie! I get carded ALL THE TIME but this one takes the cake!

march, april and may

here are a few more pages for my lovely calendar... lovely meaning it will soon be lovely but it is not so lovely as I spend all my free time doing it!

TSG Treemendous Love!

I think that this tree in the Treemendous mini set might be one of my favorite trees ever! It's beautiful and makes a statement and paired with Cosmo's Earth Love papers it makes for a fun card! I had been doing a fair amount of scrapbooking (yes I'm still working on that darn calendar!) and decided to play around with my stamps for a bit. I really need to do it more often because this one cardtook me ALL DAY! Not even joking.

I do have most of the calendar done and will start sharing it tomorrow!

garden of friends

I actually had time today to participate in the Splitcoast sketch challenge. Fun stuff I tell ya! I should have been working on my calendar though. Anyways....I used the new TSG set Garden of Friends. It's so beautiful! Perfect for a last minute birthday card if I do say so myself! I promised more Sugar Rush and I delivered! Isn't it pretty? That's all I've got for you today...not to chatty I guess. Must get to the kiddos school for some volunteering. Have a great day.

Slowly but surely I'm getting these calendar pages done...more slowly than anything though. This is February's page! It does, however feature the oh so lovely Basic Grey Sugar Rush. LOVE IT! Basic Grey was first love....paper love that is LOL and I've sort of been cheating on them for some time now with all the amazing paper companies that are out there! I even hesitated buying this Sugar Rush cause I thought I probably won't use it...I am so glad I did! I have only made this one little page out of it but I was dreaming up valentines cards as I was gluing things down. I seriously {heart} this paper! Maybe I'm going crazy cause my kids haven't gone back to school yet, maybe it's the fact that I haven't scrapped in over a month.

Who knows but I'm glad I bought it and used it! Here is a link if you need to get some for your self. Sugar Rush . There is also a free shipping deal right now with all orders over $50. Don't know about you but I love free shipping. Here's the code too so you don't haveto go looking for it! 4SP9HD

Oh and the name of the store is Embellish-It Scrapbooking.
