Saturated Canary Challenge - Color Scheme



Project Life Week 1.

 

I'm a little behind with my Project Life project.. already, like I knew I would be.

It's ok though, as long as I take notes each week.. :)

I have just fallen in love with this whole Project Life idea. I think it's so much easier than Scrapbooking and you focus more on the memory of what you are doing. Plus, I love all the little pockets! I have used my digi-papers Spring Love and I've also made some little Tags and Arrows to match the papers AND some 3x4 Journal Cards! You can view them all in my Etsy Shop!

I also have used some tags from Chic Tags,flair buttons from ShopEvalicious, Wood veeners and alphabets from Studio Calico, Kaiser Craft Alphabets, My Minds Eye brads. Some of the brads and tags are AC - Dear Lizzy.
The image I used is the Saturated Canary Stamp, 'Lilliana'. These images have so much character and emotion I think I want to try to include one on every Project Life week. This way I can still color and see how my coloring changes over time. :)

I made this for this weeks challenge at Saturated Canary. We are having a color scheme. You need to use 3 of the colors in the pallette.

I hope you like my page!
 Have a great rest of the week!

 

 



Take me out to the .. Saturated Canary Challenge...

A little late..

 

..but here's my card for the current Challenge at Saturated Canary. Our theme is to use an

image that reminds you of a movie. I chose this adorable new Saturated Canary Rubber Stamp, available at Little Darlings Rubber Stamps, her name is 'Pitcher'. I absolutely LOVE her!

Can you guess my movie...

 

'A League of their Own'!

I love that movie! I used to watch it ALL the time as a kid.

 

So, what do you all think of these fabulous new Little Darlings Designer Papers.

(that I created :) ) These are the papers from the 'Summer Sorbet Collection'. I just Love, Love these!!

 Oh, and whatcha think of the new sentiment I used.. Cute, huh?! I did those too!

This one I'm using on this card is from the Girls Rock Sentiment set.

 

Well, I hope you will join us over at the Saturated Canary Challenge.

New Stamp Release at LOTV!

 

It's time for a new release at Lili of the Valley.

I have a sneak peek for you all. I 'tried' and I really emphasize the 'tried' because I think I could have done better... with the coloring. I was trying to go for the old fashion look.. you know those photos with the little boy and girl and they are black and white or sepia and have a red rose? Well, that's what I wanted this to look like. :)

 

Today is my little girl's Birthday. My baby is 6. I offially do not have a child 5 and under..

Now I feel old.... well, not really.

 

I also wanted to remind everyone about Jacque's Sunday Sensations Candy!

 

 

Have a great day everyone!

Mega Candy!!!!!!!!!

Hello my crafty peeps!

I have some blog CANDY for you all!

 

I really want to kick off the new year with a bang and I'd like to hit that 2,000 follower mark!

Actually I think it would be cool to have 2013 followers to bring in 2013! :)

 

Can I do it?!?!

 

I'm so happy and grateful for everything I have and everything I've done this year.

It's been a struggle..

It's be fun..

It's been sad...and happy.

 

My kids are healthy, I'm surrounded by family, I've stepped out of my shell a bit with this whole crafting world. Not only do I love every bit of creating I get to stay home and see my kids grow up, help in their classes.. I really am ..lucky!

 

With all of this being said I have a few things out that I've been working on.

 

First is my new class at Color me Creative.

Shades of Grey.

Catchy, right?

 

 

Pre-registration is up and you can read all about my class and see the Supply list HERE.

 

 

Next thing I have to share is my newest Digi Paper Collection.

Cold Hearted.

Which is now available in my Etsy Store!

 

I love this collection.

It will work great with Winter cards still and great for Valentine's, too!

 

 

I also have made a matching tag sheet. I really want to start a Project Life Scrapbook..

Hopefully I will get to in the new year.

 

You can view the tag sheet in my Etsy Store.
