SWOON!  Simple Stories is amazing, and their new summer line is darn cute!!!  Check it out here. I will be stalking my favorite online retailers until I get my hands on this collection!!! I have loads of projets to tackle soon, I still need at least 3 more layouts to meet my monthly goal for Gossamer Blue--who has some FUN kits for May, check'em out when they go on sale tomorr...

A Discovery

I was surfing the interwebs late into the night and stumbled on the Avery Elle website.  I have purchased several Avery Elle stamps from Simon Says Stamp and LOVE THEM, but never realized you could download cuts for your Silhouette that match the adorable stamps perfectly!  There is nothing more annoying to me than fussy cutting your stamped images, so who's got a big grin and a whole slew...

25

I was perusing (great word, no?) this blog and thought Why Don't I Do a 25 List?  I am not nearly as cool/creative/awesome as Elise, but surely I've got 25 things to share....right?  Here goes... I love using ellipses...... If you read this blog, that was an obvious one. It's a rare day that I don't eat chocolate. And then wonder why my jeans are tight. I was so excited for Miss Q...

I {heart} this card kit.

I created this card from my first Simon Says Stamp card kit.  I saw a preview of the card kit on the amaZing Nichol Magouirk's blog, and knew I had been missing out!  So I decided to sign up for the monthly kit and for only $19.95 a month you get way more than your money's worth.  The stamp sets alone typically go for $14.99!  So I made this card for my dear friend Angie. I...

Gossamer Blue April Kit

To say that I LOVE the April kits would be a complete understatement.  I adore the Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm stuff, and the Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper makes my heart go pitter-pat.  Here's a page I made with the April kit: I misted the background with Mister Huey's, then used a sheet of wallet photo's as my picture.  I typically have some trouble using photo frames, even...

GB Pinterest Challenge

I am an avid follower of Just Em and love that she is on the design team for Gossamer Blue.  I really liked her Pinterest inspired challenge this month and decided to play along with a layout of my gorgeous niece's first Prom. The challenge stated you could use gold glitter or a combo of the colors Just Em found as inspiration on Pinterest.  I decided to go with the gold glitter...

March Project 12

I had the majority of the March P12 completed before the end of the month, but needed to get at least 1 picture from Easter at my in-laws to finish it up.  Here it is! The upper left box is my daughter's 1st birthday party invite, which sadly didn't happen because we had a freak winter storm.  I included a photo of Miss Q as she woke up on her birthday, a little info from her 1 yr check...
