To market to market...

I love to go to the farmer's market in the fall...the pumpkins, apples, squash, mums....and I love the fact that I am supporting local farms and people.  We had a fun time picking out pumpkins there and I thought that the colors in the Crate Paper "Close Knit" collection were perfect for the theme of my page.  I also used today's sketch from the Sketch Blog which you can see HERE.

I did lots of layering of some of the fun die cuts in the kit, plus I added some other wood bits from my stash.  You can also see a few splatters and some sequins, too!

I think jute twine is the perfect touch for a "natural" themed page.  And that Farmer's Market sticker is from an OLD Crate Paper collection called "Farmhouse" (maybe 2 years ago?).  But I remembered it and it was perfect for my page!

Hope you are enjoying your fall activities!  Now let's move on to the Holiday Season! We are starting it off with the 12 Days of Christmas on the message boards! 12 Days + 12 Challenges = 12 awesome giveaways! It all starts this Sunday  December 1st. Please join us on the forums and play along in all of the fun!!

Sketch Book Saved Me

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!  I hope you are enjoying time with your family and sitting back and taking it easy.  Or using this day off to get some scrappy time in :)

So how many of you are lost without inspiration to get a LO started.  Well if you can be that creative on your own you are better than I, LOL!  My computer sits on my scrappy desk and I'm always pulling up sketches or other LO's to kick off my pages.  Last week my computer started acting up, AHHH!  That is a nightmare for me.  Of course it happens when the mojo was flowing and I actually had time to scrap.  I grabbed out the My Scraps and More sketch book and used it for my inspiration.  Here is the page I created.

I used Chic Tags School House Collection for the page.

Happy Wednesday scrappy friends!
Lisa here today to share a layout of our dog, Bender:

Here are some close ups:

 

This is such a fun line!

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your day with us!

Thankful and Thanks

Hello and good morning...

Today I am sharing a layout with you using some of the new Chic Tags lines. I actually mixed the School House (school line) and the Good Tithings Collection (the Christmas line). Not a normal pairing of lines, but the colors and patterns actually mixed together really well.

I layers some pennants:

I also used several of the Chic Tag sticker embellies on my page:

 

I also used my scraps to create this Thank You card. With the Thanksgiving season on us, it's the perfect time to drop a thank you card in the mail to someone special who deserves to know your thinking of them

 I added stitching on the banner and some MME enamel dots:

Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful holiday.

Adding a little something...Giveaway Monday 11.25.13

Good Morning! I recently created a page for a Throwback Thursday challenge on our message boards. The whole concept of "Throwback Thursday" is to use some of your older stash on a layout. I was in the middle of a page for my cousins calendar, and really wanted it to work for the challenge, but the product I was using definitely did not qualify as "old" , since the paper was from a new Christmas line. After looking at it for a bit,  adding in a little bling, there was my Throwback page!

Our giveaway today is "some bling" to add that little something to your pages and the papers from Lily Bee Designs "Pinwheel" collection! For your chance at this prize, leave a comment on this post (and daily for those extra draws) by the end of the day December 1st, letting me know what little something you always add to your pages. I will announce the winner next week just like this lucky lady drawn from all of last week's comments...

LoriNovember 18, 2013 at 10:48 AMBeautiful layout! Fancy Pants is one of my favorite companies and I have really loved their collections for a while now.
