Jackson Lodge Garden - June's Kit

June's kit is a great mix of masculine and feminine.  It has beautiful floral patterns as well as manly stripes, circles and sparks.  Here's a peek at the layouts I made with it.




And here's the video :)

Birthday Present

Mom & I had a great long weekend this year.  My birthday usually falls somewhere around that weekend, so as a treat she booked two days & a night a the McVicar Manor Bed & Breakfast.  It's about two blocks from my house and it's gorgeous!  I think it's one of my most favourite properties in Thunder Bay.  The folks who run it set up a table in the corner tower in the living room for us to scrapbook in...  It was perfect!  Check out the pics
 So I've merged a couple pics together to show the whole building together but there's a little distortion, LOL!  Sorry...


 I made 5 layouts during our day... The creek is along the side of the property so on Saturday afternoon, we worked out in the sun porch facing the creek... So beautiful!!!

May's Missing Posts :)

So I seem to have skipped posting anything in May...  It's not that I didn't do anything, I just didn't post it.  Let me rectify that situation now!

May's kit was a beauty!  Bright, bold colours and gorgeous flowers I LOVED it!  Here's the video & my layouts...





I think it's this floral paper at the bottom that makes me love this kit so much.  I love frilly flowers :)

Curiosity Shoppe - Graphic 45

So I was browsing all the new scrapbooking products after the Winter CHA and found this great collection called Curiosity Shoppe by Graphic 45.  I was totally in love, however it didn't really say "Monthly Collection" to me...  Not everyone loves vintage as much as I do.  So, I decided to order just a minium order from the wholesaler... for me!  Here's the first page I've made with it...

Grandma`s Birthday

So I still have quite a bit of the Graceful collection left over & thought I would use it on this layout of my Grandma`s 91st Birthday :)    I used my two edge punches & my new Nestabilities dies for all the great edges on this layout.

Birthday card!

This was my Mom's birthday card from my Dad.  Each year he asks me to make one for him to give her.  This one was made using the Country Garden collection from BoBunny.  The orange scalloped piece in the middle with butterflies was from the cut outs page.  The flowers, button & ribbon were from my stash.  This card was super quick to make & I love how it turned out.  Hope you like it too!

April's Kit - "Graceful"

So this month's kit has a very Easter-y feel to me!  I'm not a huge purple fan but I love purple and yellow together.  This kit features a great plum color and a beautiful yellow/gold.  I think the stripe paper is my favorite from the whole pack but maybe the embossed ruler-ish paper wins... not sure :)  All the core impressions paper is great.  Love the embossing.  Here's a pic of the kit.. check it out www.createdwithpaper.com

This card was quick & easy... for my Mom's birthday :)
