wednesday . . .

My past week & a half (in pics) . . .

Welcoming spring . . .

Napping, napping, napping . . .

Loving Grammy . . .

Looking all grown up . . .

Tasty lunches downtown . . .

Tummy time . . .

I have also been scrapping :) Lots to share!!!

First up - a fun layout using SEI's new Corinne line - seriously LOVE this line!!! Full of bright colors & awesome embellies :)

A close-up of the title work - see those adorable clouds - I cut down a border strip from the collection & placed it behind the title. The colorful border was created by cutting 4 thin strips of patterned paper & simply overlapped them at the ends. Then a quick pen line draw over each strip to finish it off :)

Just because the border strips are 12" long doesn't mean you can cut them down to work for your page - here I trimmed down the pinwheel border strip & used it as a fun accent to the left of my photo :)

I just received the other new SEI lines & can't wait to play :)

Recently I purchased the new Jillibean Soup lines & have been having fun playing with them in between working on assignments. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their new 12 x 12 sheets of stickers & die-cuts - they make embellishing so easy!!! I have been waiting to scrap this adorable pic of Ryan & his cousins since last summer - once I saw the new JB Blossom Soup line & knew it would be a perfect match!!

Here's a close-up on all these fabulous stickers from the 12 x 12 sheet - they are perfect for layering :)

Below is another close-up showing more of these stickers & a bunch of the awesome die-cuts as well. I wrapped some embroidery floss around the center of the diecut butterfly to accent the body . . .

Oh & before I go - Pretty Little Studios is giving away a free set of Hopscotch cut-out tags with any order until April 1st . . .

It won't be hard to rack up an order - all the Mini Bunting Flags, Mini Paper Ribbons, and Lemon Slices Garland Flags are on sale for $1.99 through March 25th - so get shopping :)
