And coincidentally it features what is probably going to be the hottest SU paper this year

I have been randomly searching the net for cool thing sI would buy if I wasn't spending all my money on stamps...

This lamp

A custom camera strap cover using this orange and white dot fabric

Oh and these boots.

For a long time I have wanted to do a set of weekly challenges about me. I had originally thought about doing Emily Falconbridge's Deck of Me that she did back in 07. When I went back and checked her blog it turns out she is doing a whole new set for this year so I sort of switched gears.

I will probably go back and do her original challenge as I LOVED some of her prompts.

So without further ado- here is Question 1- what do i wish for this year to bring?

Supplies used:
Patterned Paper- Memory Box
Pearls- Kaiser Krafts
Letters- Crate PAper
09- Basic Grey mini chipboard covered in distress stickles
Poppy Stamp- Flourishes
It's hard to see but all of the leaves and flowers have a subtle shine that I did with the Copic glitter pens.

Lesson 3 - Fake Photo/Real Memory

"Often, we have feelings or memories that are important to us, but we don’t have a photo that goes with it. Don't let that stop you!

I want you to create a page or project about something you are feeling or a memory you want to record that you have no photo for. But that does not mean you have to do the page with no photo."

I wanted some way to document the beginning of my TTC journey so I used a piece of packaging from my box of vitamins. I also LOVED that the image on the box was of a red head (and her genius baby!)

I'm also playing with white space but think it looks unfinished, I may go back and doodle on the edges.
Supplies used:
Scenic Route chipboard letters
Maya road chipboard clock
Basic Grey chipboard flower
Patterned Paper - Basic Grey (Orange), Target dollar spot (purple)and Stampin Up (green)
Bam Pop Journaling frame and Sassafras Lass swirly stamp that was then hand cut.

So far I am most excited about this sneak peek. It it so nice to find a paper line that's not dominated by pink and yet is still fun and whimsical.

This woodland critters theme is super hot right now! I'm lovin it!

Multicolr Search Lab

This stroke of genius app allows you to pick colors and it searches flikr to find matching photos so you can get beautiful collages like those bellow. You can add up to 10 colors it looks like. I have been playing with various combinations all afternoon!
