My Snapshots of Summer Album

Art Freckles hosted a "Snap Shots of Summer" challenge this past summer. I was able to take a lot of fun photos using the themes provided. Then my package from Studio Calico arrives with some very fun papers (Over the Rainbow August Kit), and a great Bingo album from Melissa Frances.... so I put the two together and this is what I came up with! Each page is designed with a specific photo in mind....I will fill it up and enjoy the memories this summer has created in years to come!

Lovebug Kits and Sketches

Perfect timing for my family day photos!

I used a few sketches and managed to put my July kit to good use! Love these fun Pink Paisley papers!

52 sketches #36

This next one is made for Lyndas' sketch challenge over at Paper Popsicles.

This one is for Melissas' hand drawn sketch challenge over at Paper Popsicles.

This last page is just for fun! My cousins do have really cute kids!!!

~Scrappy Shopping~

I buy tons of stuff online, mostly scrappy goods but often other things too.... Okay...mostly scrappy goodies!!! I love online kit clubs, and online stores that keep up with the trends! One of my very favorite online stores is Bluemoon Scrapbooking! The customer service is amazing, they have loads of new stuff weekly and I get all giddy when the package I order arrives on my doorstep!!!! I am always pleased with my orders!!!! Thanks Scott, this months' package ROCKS!!!! You all MUST check out those new Primas, and Graphic 45 papers.....just a few of my favorites!

A bunch of stuff I forgot to post!

I have a file folder on my laptop labelled "To Post on Blog". It's been neglected lately! Here are a few pages/cards that were lonely in that file....so I'll post them now and see if I can keep up to date now that the girls are back in school!

I have loads of pages that need photos too...so I'm hoping to tackle those soon!

Here are 2 baby girl pages I made for Stacey's "Virtual Baby Shower"

This card is made from Art Freckle scraps.

This next one uses supplies from an older Paper Popsicles kit.

This one of the girls at the beginning of the summer is made with supplies from a Lovebug kit.
