Winter Wishes

Winter is here - and as I was looking for some snowy pics to go along with Suzy Q's Winter Wishes kit, I found these classics on my cell phone.  Miss those days...

The kit is a great bundle and currently at a discount on Scrapbookgraphics.com - click the image to take you to the kit.  I didn't use them on this page - but there are some awesome vellum elements in this kit - definately worth checking out! (and I must give credit to Pagemaps.com where I got the template inspiration for this page)

Ties that Bind

Suzy Q Scraps new kit releases this week - Ties that Bind.  It's a huge collection with all of this included at a steal of a price...click on the kit to take you to her store.

• Ties That Bind kit
• Ties That Bind Journal Cards
• Ties That Bind Word Art
• Ties That Bind Add-on: Father & Son
• Ties That Bind Add-on: Mother & Daughter

When I think of ties that bind - family comes first to mind - and I didn't want o do a bunch of smaller photos - so I dug deep for this family foto from our cruise a few years ago.  The colors coordinated perfectlyand what a better way to show off these cute journal cards?

Another Art journal style page

A new month for Art Journal challenges at scrapbookgraphics, The painted Nest Challenge.  This month (#21) - and here are the prompts.

 You get the freebies, but you have to use them on your page. (I love the reindeer).  Sissy Sparrows creates the freebies - (thank you.)  and you must use 1 of the colors as well as a phrase.






Below is my page... The kids were having such a good time together, the laughs never stopped.  That journal prompt was perfect!

I think I enjoy these challenges because I am a typically very neat scrapper - this gives me the chance to get sloppy.  I think I mentioned it before that it is a bit "freeing" in a way.  Give it a try  http://www.scrapbookgraphics.com/forum/

December - Winter mini kit

Remember that awesome class I took at Scrapaneers with Tracey Reed?  The designer class... well here is the winter kit that I made.  It wasn't until last night that I realize that maybe I really just want to do word-art? or just something I can use for my pocket pages...
Well the kit can be picked up by clicking here.  Enjoy - let me know what ya think.

Oh by the way, my fav part.....

Suzy Q Scraps - MM Thanksgiving & Brand new set of Simple Story Grids!

These photos are from a few years ago, but the memory is one that I am very grateful to share.  Father-daughter dance.  I love how they got to get dressed up and spend an evening out together.  It just so happens that this lil' mini kit helped give me the perfect opportunity to showcase this moment.  I wanted to highlight them together, so the tilted photo worked perfect!
