Chick Flick Junkie

I worked on an All About Me page last night. I'm not quite sure if I really want to enter it in the challenge I was thinking about, but it was still fun to capture this little part about me.  :)

Happy Labor Day!

Are you taking a break from your labor today? Hope so! It's funny how this unofficial end of summer crept up so quickly! Even I can't believe summer is close to being over! And for those of you who know me, I am not a fan of summer!

Anyway, if you're following Real Life Scrapped, I have an article today on washi tape called "The Woo of Washi." Read all about how I got into the washi craze. I also have a new fave in washi tapes - Pocketful of Posies Tapes from Rebecca Wagler! I didn't see this in time for the article, but I love the designs!

I also have a few new items I'd like to share for today...

Outside the Box Design Studio Guests at Deviant Scrap
Are you into art journaling? Deviant Scrap has great resources for "out of the box" designs in general, but now Outside the Box Design Studio will be their guest. Take a look at the cool offerings, like Quirked!, which is pictured here.




That's all for today! See you all soon!

Scrap Goodness Saturday!

Wow! I cannot believe it is already September 1st! Labor Day weekend is always the send off to summer weekend for me. It means that the colorful days of fall will soon be upon us. I love fall - the colors, the weather, the clothes, lol! Anyway, I hope you are enjoying a long weekend doing something enjoyable!

Yesterday, I posted Funday Friday picks at Real Life Scrapped. But, I still had several other cool things that I found in the scrap world! Wanna see? (Incidentally, these are in no particular order.)

It's Elementary Vintage Alpha Cards from Baers Garten Designs

These are so quaint and cute! Now I wish I had TONS of old school pictures just so I could use these. Of course, they could just be used as part of clustered elements, too, on a vintage layout. In fact, check out Play All Day Elements, which are perfect to use with these cards!

I Love Rock & Roll from Little Butterfly Wings

This kit rocks! While I don't necessarily have a lot of rock & roll memories to scrap, I love the elements in this kit. (Hmmm...maybe I can use this kit to document my niece's love of rock?) And guess what? It's ON SALE today for 50% off! (I didn't realize One Story Down was having a sidewalk sale on select items!)

I've Got Sunshine from Traci Reed

Traci had a sneak peek earlier this week on Facebook, but now it's unveiled. I LOVE the colors (maybe the influence of being the University of CA school system - haha!) and the positive messages of this kit! How can you not like this kit?  :D

Enjoy Life from JM Designs

This is another "happy" kit with fun, subtle colors. There are some really fun elements and papers in this kit. Must buy soon, lol!

Elemental - Kym's Washi from Gennifer Bursett

I love washi tape, and there are some really cool designs in this kit that you can use as borders or even backgrounds. Can't wait to add it to my collection!

Words - Adjectives from Heidi Swapp

Did you know Heidi's digital shop is open temporarily? These are classic Heidi, just like the acrylic word stamps. The files include brushes and cutting files. There is also a freebie in her shop. And, for a limited time, use the coupon code HEIDI to get 25% off your purchase!

Speech from Paula Kesselring

A re-release from one of my favorites! I don't think I have this one, though, so I may have to scoop it up while it's on sale. This kit has a lot of "old" (or vintage) elements like a record player, cassette tape, and VHS tape.

Modern Family from Maya de Groot

The quirkiness of this kit is what attracted me at first. But, once you look closely, there are updated elements that work perfectly with today.







Okay, that's all I have time to cover today - want to get out to take advantage of my weekend. Have a fun long holiday, and get creative if you can!  :)
