Have you ever been inspired by an ad for your scrapbooking? One of our challenges with the Poppy Ink kit was to scrapbook a page after flipping through a magazine. This is what I came up with.
I have a soft spot for vintage trims. They can be the icing on the cake for any project.
And look what I got in the mail... yay!! How'd that other stuff get in there? :) It was my excuse to buy a cute recycle tee. :)
First off - CONGRATULATIONS on your new little one! I've been busy and not able to read your blog regularly like I used...... LOVE this layout and YES, I regularly use magazine ads for not only my scrapbooking but also my mixed media artwork as well. Sometimes its just the colours and sometimes its how things are laid out on the page.....
You so rock your LO's! Can't wait to get the shades! :) Hope all is well with the new addition! Such a beautiful family!!! I love the new look of your blog. Fabulous pictures!
Clearly baby Quincey is sleeping through the night? How else do you get all that scrapbooking done with a two-year old and a newborn, huh? Hope I get a shades of summer pack soon...we've been having a great summer here in Cincinnati! Take care!
Love the summer toes layout! Fun colors. What is the name of the paper you used at the top? I saw it on the poppy ink kit but can't figure out what it's called. If you could let me know I would appreciate it!
Congrats on the new addition, your family is too cute!
cute cute cute! I don't know how you do it! and I can't wait for those glasses to head in my direction. I bought a brand new camera just for this occasion....hehe! Have a great weekend Elizabeth!
Cute layout! I love the vintage trim as well! My mom lives in a very small town in SD and they have a wonderful little thrift store where I can sometimes fall upon bunches of it for pennies! Love when that happens! Your new banner is cute as well! Always love to check your blog for inspiration! Can't wait to see more baby pics! =)
you are the craftiest lady i know! crafty in a good way ;) hope that sweet girl sleeps good for you soon... a nurse told me with my first, they don't sleep well at night in the beginning because they are homesick for you, they miss hearing our hearts beat! awww! can't wait for those shades...
Ohh, I can't wait to get those glasses...hoping...waiting! I get inspired by lots of things around me as well. Aww yeah for summer time and those adorable toes!!
Great idea to use a lo for a magazine. LOve the papers you use from the Poppy Ink Kit.
i hope that Quincey soon will sleep throw the night and eat during day. She is so cute to look at. i keep my fingers crossed for you and collin that everything is normal soon. (he's bioritme has been also disturbed now.) xo Simone
Thanks for that tip! I don't use photoshop actions much (I tried some free ones I found on the Internet), but they make photo editing much, much simpler! I recently found the ones you were talking about, and they're perfect! Thanks again! And I see you did your own form of retail therapy :-) Bless Internet shopping!
I love your latest LO! Congratulations on sweet baby girl Quincy...she's too cute! I hope my little girl is as great of a big sis as Avery is when her little brother gets here in three weeks! I love your pics! Corey
AWESOME!! I love Forever 21. All of their accessories are so cute...not to mention wonderful on the budget! Can't wait to get my Shades of Summer on! Thanks for coming up with such a great project!
Beautiful page...I love the color scheme. Makes me want to go sit on the beach, paint my toes lime green and have a popsicle! Thanks for the summer boost!
Hey Elizabeth, Congrats on the baby and I love the new look of your blog. I read your Dear Lizzy column and I absolutely love it! I am looking forward to reading it every month!
Is there still a chance to get involved in the shades of summer? I would love to join...
