Mommy's Punkin'

I can't seem to get enough chevron these days...

and this Lilly Bee paper makes me so happy!

 Perfect for scrappin' Adelyn's 2nd birthday pictures!

Addy + chevron + bunting = scrappy love!

My Craft Space Tour

Please come see me and my craft space over

HERE on The Memory Works Blog!

I am the guest designer this month and

have a post with a tour of The No-No Room!

Summer Bucket List

I hosted a craft night for my mom's group...

we made these cute buckets to keep track of all

the fun summer things we want to do with our families!

I have more details about the project on my family blog HERE!

My Summer Obsession

Have you seen the new summer line from Simple Stories!! 

I am so in love with it...

I have not got my hands on it yet,

 but when I do I will turn it into

many, many adorable projects and layouts!!

If you want some... let me know and I will be happy to

place your order when it is in stock, right along with my order! 

and if you wanna see more  look at it HERE... sigh!

Love This Face

I am still on an Addy roll...

Looking at some older pictures of her make me

want to scrap pink, flowers, ribbon, and all things girly!

 The title says "We just love this face"

 All the paper is from My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline paper.

I really, really like it!

 The details are just simple layering on a doily di-cut.

 Again I added a little peek-a-boo topper...

I can't help myself!

Can you believe that I made that adorable face!

I always tell Adam... "Our kids are so flippin' cute,

we owe it to the world to make a least a dozen!"

Hmmm... I am thinking I need to go back and round some corners...

Pirate Princess

Who says girls can't be pirates?

And my what cute one Addy made when she was 22 months!

This adorable pirate paper is from Rusty Pickle... ya, it is old.

The grey polka- dot paper is new from My Mind's Eye and I am a bit smitten by it!

The cards are Crate Paper... gotta love them!

I added tulle and a bow from old scraps.

Tulle is such a cheap way to add fun texture to pages...

plus it comes in every color!

The title is actually that strip along the bottom of the paper...

the Rusty Pickle line was Pirate Princess. 

I just trimmed it and dove tailed it,

to match the other My Mind's Eye stickers.

You can see the new Miss Caroline products HERE.

Let me know if you want to order some... and trust me you want to order some!

I have been adding a little side topper to lots of pages these days. 

This one was made of a Martha's Stewart doily and scraps from the page.

The grey button came as an extra from a cardigan I bought- how is that for planning?

Adelyn is 2 now and since Mike has been away visiting his Lala...

she and I have had lots of quality girl time, so all I want to scrap is her!

Crop Night

Woo Hoo! 

I have a fun new group of scrappin' girls to play with!

I have lived in this town for just 9 months

and thanks to my mommy group

I already have a fun group of friends

 to crop and craft with.

I hosted a crop night this weekend and

 it was so much fun to make stuff, eat, and

show off the Memory Works products...

ok and drink a little wine, too!

 I put together a little make and take with our
Fancy Pants Summers End Paper.

We made my super simple and very darling photo clips. 

Look HERE to see my original post.

These are super fun for seasonal displays,
place cards, and they even hold a gift card!

I used some vintage glass ware and

our desert plates to hold all our materials.

Everything was cut and measured, however

I left a variety of ribbon, flowers, buttons, and

 paper pieces, so everyone could add their own touch!

I also was able to show off stickles...

which I think every crafter should own!

To display product and keep myself organized,

 I moved a few things around on my hutch.

I really liked how natural and part of my decor it all looked.

I do want to work on a way to display some of my layouts.... ideas?

I brought down a few of my favorite things that

 maybe the girls were not familiar

with, like my 6x6 paper  obsession and glimmer mist.

  It was requested that I do a make and

take with the glimmer mist and acrylic stamps!! 

This is how I store

 my newest,

most favorite,

most inspirational

paper in my scrap room...

So it was a perfect way to display even more product! 

I did not do a whole of "selling" as this was a crop

and not a "catalog party"

However, this method will also help me

 keep track or order of mentioning our different lines.

All and all, I had fun so I would say to was a success...

the girls want to make it a monthly thing,

which thrills me because it is always way more

fun to scrap with friends!

I have also learned that I do want to host an open house

for girls who either don't scrapbook or

girls who are not interested in being in a monthly crop. 

Before I do this I want to get working on

Mike's Elementary Album  and Adelyn's Fabulous Album.

This way girls (aka busy busy moms) can see

 how fun and easy it is to leave your babies an adorable legacy!

Also, I am continuing my craft nights...

wait until you see our Spring Craft!!
