It's Friday!!!!

Happy Friday, yet again! Ready for a ton of beautiful new releases? I told you I was stuck at home this week with a sick kiddo! I was a busy scrappin' fool! haha!

First up is a collab kit by geniaBeana Scraps and Christy Skaggs of Go Digital Scrapbooking, titled Blossom:

My layout of my little girl who has already grown so much since I took these pictures over a year ago!


Wendy of WM [Squared] Designs has been super busy lately and I had the privilege of using a bunch of her goodies this week! First of hers is a new template pack titled Be Inspired - Bexy:


I also used her Project 365 Pregnancy Jumbo Kit on my layout of my growing baby boy!

For my next layout I combined these gorgeous new templates from Stolen Moments of Scrap Matters titled, Just Call Me Keyr:


And this beautiful collab kit by WM [Squared] Designs and Sya's Blueprints, both of Scrap Matters, called Forever Treasured:


Here is my layout using both those great products, of my 2 most favorite people in the whole world!

Last, but most definitely NOT least, is a kit from SuzyQ Scraps of Scrap Orchard titled, No Monsters Allowed. It is absolutely perfect for those pictures you have of your terrible two-er (I have a ton of those!).

And here's my little tantrum thrower (although she has been getting better about them in the past month or so!):

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and I will be back next week, as always, with new goodies to share!!

Sunshine This Week? ;)

Well maybe there was, but I have been cooped up in the house with a sick child - so I sure didn't get to feel it! But I did get to work with these 3 beautifully sunny kits!
First up is a kit SuzyQ Scraps created for the Daily Digi, called none other than Sunshine:

And here is my layout of my little sunshine:



Next up is another sunny looking collab kit by geniaBeana Scraps and Albums to Remember titled, A Super Special Day. Check it out at Elemental Scraps:


My layout using this bright kit got me a gallery standout at Elemental Scraps!



The final kit I wanted to share today is a March Grab Bag by Captivated Visions which can also be found at Elemental Scraps titled, Oh Sunshiny Day:


I scrapped one of the very few family pictures we took on our last trip to Hawaii with this kit:


I hope with the start of all these beautiful summery and sunny kits that Spring and Summer arrive soon!
Check back tomorrow for some more new releases!

WOW am I behind on posting my layouts!!

I am just a tad behind in my blogging!! I have had a crazy past couple of weeks (and that's different from when??!!)....
So let me try to catch you up with my latest scrapping adventures!
I will start with the most recently released and work backwards...
First up is a collab Kit and Add-On by Stolen Moments and Scrapmuss Designs of Scrap Matters titled Lucky U:


I have been wanting to scrap this moment of Alahna for a long time now. It was the St. Patrick's Day right after her first birthday, and I was wanting to capture her getting all messy in the cake....


Next up is another collab kit by SuzyQ Scraps and Jady Day Studio of Scrap Orchard titled Ouchies & Ickies:

Another moment I have been wanting to scrap is of Alahna's first cold at just 5 weeks old. My little preemie was barely 5 pounds old when she got so sick that we had to put her to sleep sitting up in a chair. Such a sad moment for a new mommy!

Next up is another fabulous template pack from Wendy of WM [Squared] Designs. She has the best Project 365 Templates! Check out Day by Day V.3:

I made a 2 pager with these templates! I am soooo far behind in scrapping my 365 Journey!! I don't think I will make it the whole year...

Next up is another collab kit - this time by SuzyQ Scraps and Amy Sumrall of Scrap Orchard, titled Forest Frolic:


I am very proud of this layout for a number of reasons....I love how I edited the photos (my least strongest area of Digi-Scrapping), the composition feels right to me, AND I got the fabulous honor of Layout-of-the-Week at Scrap Orchard for it! That's the first time I have received that honor at their site - so that's huge to me!

The last kit I want to share with you is also a collab between Captivated Visions and Connie Prince titled Forever. It can be found at Scrap Matters, Elemental Scraps, and Gotta Pixel.


I scrapped a picture of Ryan and I on my 29th birthday, when we took a Cruise to Cabo:

I have a bunch more to show you later in the week....so hopefully now that I am caught up on my blogging I can stay caught up!

Happy Friday!

Ready for today's new releases??? There are some fabulous new goodies out today!
First up is a bright and bold new kit from Lyndsay Riches of Scrap Orchard titled, I Got A Feelin':


I also used Captivated Visions new All Stacked Up V.1 Templates, shown here and found at Elemental Scraps for only $1!


Here is my layout using both Lyndsay's kit and Captivated Visions template of my hot tempered 2 year old and her daily temper tantrums:




Next up is a new Alpha from Amber of Stolen Moments called Beat Up and Screwed Up Alpha:


I used this new alpha along with an older kit of Amber's, Pure Perfection, for pictures of our recent trip to Disneyland:



Last, but most definitely NOT least, is this stunningly gorgeous Valentines-y kit from Wendy of WM [Squared] Designs. She calls it Love Potion #9, and also has coordinating Alphas (in MANY colors), and a HUMONGOUS Word Art Pack!



My layout using all 3, is of the very first time I got to see Alahna - after being wheeled down to the NICU after spending hours in recovery....such a precious moment!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

Elemental Scraps New Releases

Once again I am a few days late on this post....don't know what it is about blogging on time, but its become harder - for sure!
Today I have 2 new releases from Elemental Scraps Designers which both released on Monday. First up is a kit from Captivated Visions titled, Sweet As Mallow:


Here is my layout using this tender kit:


Next up is geniaBeana Scraps new release for Elemental Scraps February Color Play. Her portion is titled U Rock, and can be bought for a limited time for a $1 each!


And my layout of my almost 3 year old:

The last LO I want to share is my final submission to the DSA Scrap Off Contest, last week. I ended up tying for 3rd place in the competition and won a one month guest spot on the DSA Creative Team! It was the first contest I have ever entered in the Digi-Scrappin' world and it sure felt good to do so well! Here's that final LO:

I am going to type up my blog post for tomorrow right now....so come back in the AM for more new releases (on the day they release!!).
