A New Kit = Three New Layouts!

I loved the soft color palette in the "On the Road" kit by Scooty's Designs over at TwoLittlePixels.com, so I picked it up and started scrapping pics from our recent trip to California.

Here's the kit:

Coffee Cup Challenge by DigitalScrapCafe.com

This month I participated in the "Coffee Cup" challenge from digitalscrapcafe.com. The challenge was to create a layout using 1) a math symbol 2) extraction and 3)journaling. I created two layouts for the challenge:


This one I did using the template provided:


This one I made up on my own:


Thanks for the great challenge! It was fun!

{Week 3} Messes= Life True and Real

Week 3 of 52 Inspirations is about real life. Well when you have a two year old, messes are real life! This week's kit inspired me to showcase the pictures I took when Jules got into baby powder and made a huge mess in the bedroom.

{52 Inspirations} Week Two

This week's inspiration was about life inspired. I'm inspired to live a better life every day just by looking at Jules' sweet face. So I kept this week pure and simple.

Here's the kit:

52 Inspirations

So this past weekend I stumbled across something called "52 Inspirations" from Oscraps.com.



It's basically a one year subscription where you receive a new digital mini kit full of inspiration for the scrapping a layout that week. I really needed this inspiration because it's August and I've done hardly ANY scrapping this year, which equals lost memories of Jules that I "think" I will remember, but 20 years from now I won't. So I signed up for the subscription, and will be working to get caught up! We are currently on week 31, and I'm just starting, but hey- who doesn't love a challenge? :-)
