After some METAMORPHOSIS it's time to FOCUS

So.....did that title catch you? Well I'm here to tell you about some great kits that I had the pleasure to work with the last couple of weeks.

First, just released today by the Studio Girls at Scrapbookgraphics is the awesome collaboration Creative Fusion - About A Mother. I created the layout below using the mini kits created by Rosey Posey: Metamorphosis - Blooms, Metamorphosis - Accents, Metamorphosis - Papers. Aren't these kits just beautiful? I also used kits from Miss Vivi and Maya. Go check out the whole collection...it's truly amazing!
Also for all you photographer buffs (and anyone who loves to scrap!) you really need to check out this fantastic kit that is a collaboration between Page Frocks, Sweet Tomato Designs and Heather Hess. It's available here at Scrap Matters. I love the colors in this fantastic kit. It worked so perfectly for the photos of my daughters and my grandson. You really should check this one out. You won't be disappointed!

Thanks for looking! Happy Scrappin'

The Celebration Continues....

Hey everyone! Boy can you believe February is over already? Time just flies too quickly the older I get! But even though February is almost at an end doesn't mean the birthday fun is over. Come back and check out the festivities at My Life and Scrap. There are still a ton of wonderful birthday challenges going on for another 2 weeks. Don't miss out on the fun!

While you are there checking out the challenges in the forum, take a look at the gallery. It is filling up with some truly aweswomeLOs! There's definitely loads of inspiration in there. And stop in the shop as well. The wonderful designers at MLAS have tons and tons of beautiful kits to choose from. Check out the 2 page LO I did below with Vintage Flourish by Dream Big Designs. It's just one of the amazing kits available in the shop.


Well, hope you all enjoy what's left of February. Bring on March....one step closer to Spring! Yippee!

Thanks for looking and happy scrappin'!
