Tea Light card

I've been intrigued with the concept of a tea light card since seeing one on a scrapbook forum a few months ago. I saved the link to where the lady found the instructions and yesterday made my own! What do you think?

I posted a challenge and a few photos of how I created this at Scraptures here if you're interested in making one. Let me know if you do! It's a great little Christmas/event/teacher gift so why not try. :-)

I had a GREAT time with this kit from Scraptures the colours are so fun and vibrant and perfect for some of my summer vacation photos. Tell me what you think! I know the layout photographs aren't the greatest but I'll get better. :-)

Obviously recognizable as one of the most fun photos. She had a great time in that car!

My Inaugural Monthly Challenge for Scraptures!

We're at the mid-way point in what has been a very warm and sunny summer in most parts of the country. Let's see your SUNSHINE layouts (or cards). Just use the word "sun" or use a photo of fun in the sun or anything that screams SUNSHINE to you.

Here are two of my sunniest family members, dressed in yellow on a Very Sunny Day.



You can find the challenge pospted here at the Scraptures website. Come on over and play! 

Scraptures!

I've got a secret!  Well it's not much of a secret anymore, I've been asked to be part of the design team over at Scraptures (http://www.scraptures.ca/) for the next three months. This means that I'll be using their lovely kits to scrapbook and provide inspiration for the members.

I can't wait to get started! My term officially began on Aug 1 but life has been so crazy with dh away and my cute little gd and her mommy sticking around for the month, that I've not had a lot of time to spend letting you all know what's going on.

I'll be working on the blog more in the coming weeks as little Miss Cutie goes home next week just after her first birthday. Wow, time flies! Anyway, in the mean time, check out the forum. It's a nice little place with a lot of inspiration.
