OK. here's the sketch and here's my take on it using the close to my heart stuff!

A little cha cha cha

Ok, had to steal the images from my friend Angie's blog but I wanted to show you a couple projects I made for the October Afternoon booth at CHA. The new lines are soooo darling and it was really fun to work with them....

First up is a page using Farm Fresh..


Then Report Card...

friendship is in bloom.

click on the photo for a closer look!




Here's the page I just finished with the brand new Lullaby of Birdland line from Scribble Scrabble... there are birds in this line I just haven't used them yet.
Anyways! hope you enjoy and have a great weekend!

oh me oh my!

I do believe I have a new favorite line from Scribble Scrabble... Lullaby of Birdland! I have really been diving into it ...here are two cards I've made thus far. There's a layout in progress..sitting on my desk as well!




... and here's my page from the August summer saga kit at create my keepsake. pretty clean and simple. tfl!

Some Nikki Sivils stuff!

I have been catching up on almost everything since I got home from CHA... the family, laundry, cleaning, scrapping... much of the scrapping I can't share quite yet but it'll be here soon!
It's a busy time of year... Alexander's birthday is next week and school is close behind.

AND...

to celebrate back to school thought I'd share a little project I made with Henry's Brilliance line from Nikki Sivils. Everything from this project is part of Nikki Sivils products. tfl!




one last Nikki Sivils card.. using the my sweet cherry pie line mixed with some doodlebug designs and k&co rubons. tfl!

I am back from CHA~

So, would you like to look at some of the goodies from CHA... also, gotta share a few photos of some ladies I met there! Wish I could have carried a camera each day, but too much to keep up with in such a busy place.

First up. A photo of myself and Amy Tara Koeppel who I have "known" from the online scrapping world for a while now! She is just as kind and sweet in person as I though she would be! Wish we could have spent even more time together girly!


Next up, I met two Garden Girls (Cindy Liebel and Wendy Bretz) along with one of their friends! They were all so fun and funny!




Then, I was able to meet the fabulous Keri Lee Sereika, Jeanne Streiff and Kimber McGray - I know their work and am on the Card Positioning Systems team. I was only able to get a photo with myself, Kimber and Jeanne! Keri had her new baby with her that is adorable and Kimber was across the aisle from me in her booth so we got to chat a bit - she's so fun! Loved seeing them!



I will be loading tons of CHA 2009 photos on the Label Tulip blog along with some of the other Label Tulip girls who were there if you want tons of close-up photos of the projects, papers and other new releases this year!

Also, wanted to share my layout using today's Friday Formula at Create My Keepsake. The page was made with supplies from the July kit there as well!

Lullaby of Birdland

So, I am trying to gear up for CHA next week... and, for the first time in forever I have a cold! eek! I do not want to be nursing a runny nose next week! So, here's hoping some rest, vitamins, immune system and cold medicine kick in quickly!

For you! Here's a look at one of the three new lines coming out this summer from Scribble Scrabble! They will not be at CHA so here's a link to their site!
Here's lullaby of birdland:
