new releases 1.26

wow! can you believe January is almost gone? we've been so busy with kids, kids projects & homework & just the everyday everything that this month has flown by!  the kids are already half-way through their school year too! eek! summer will be here before we know it!

anyway, I've come up with a few kits this week that are a coordinating digi version to my paper line Love Me for My Mind's Eye.  I did up a patterned paper kit & an element kit as well! hope you love.love.love them!

& check out the layouts...

Since these kits have lots of pink, it was tempting to do up a layout with my daughter first, but I challenged myself to create a boy layout with it.  I kinda love how it turned out! for this layout I used the love.love.love. elements & papers + some older kits like the Chipper papers, InStitches various kits & the Tag You're It kit.  the frame is from Agi Biro & the month & year elements are new from Karla Dudley this week.

hope you enjoy! remember... 30% off the new kits today!

project life. week 2. jan 8-14.

week 2. warm weather. cold weather. snow. finally. lunch date with daddy. chiropractor visit for Lydia. starting again on c25k. homework. homework. homework. dr visit for me. more invention convention finishing for Evan. science fair experiements for Collin. stress. a friends birthday party for Evan. & a family trip to see the Cardinal Caravan to end our week.

pg 1

i found myself using lots of printables {this page Hello Forever, Paislee Press & some older ones from Jen Allyson} & labels {squee! new from Martha Stewart} this week & also used a new {free} 4x6 photo template {from Paislee Press} to put together photo collages for the 4x6 spots. I included a printout the dr gave me on my blood test results. lots of stitching this week too to add a little something.

I also seemed to use an old Making Memories magnetic stamp set that I've had forever. may have to look into getting some more little alphabet sets.  I really liked using them again.  I used a little Kraft Funday on this page too. the 6x6 pads are so perfect.  I printed out a screenshot of a text conversation I had with Collin one day, stamped out a portion of something Lydia said, included a birthday party invitation, a kids menu from a restaurant we ate at & a sticker from a jersey Evan got this weekend. On this page I used another few printables from Hello Forever {umm, hello, see the 23 on the jersey & the 23 on the card? meant to be} & Paislee Press & also my Everyday Journaling Cards

I also included a 6x12" insert this week to document our Saturday trip to see the Cardinal Caravan.  It was definitely a highlight of our week.  I could have included so much more, but tried to not go overboard because I'm sure I'll be making layouts about it as well.  For this I tried to do photo collages in photoshop to streamline the process a little. I added an overview of the trip by typing it up & printing it on a journal page.  I also included a bit from a brochure we got there. 

so that's it! week 2 done.
