Sunday Sketch, November 8th

My little stinkers are very obliging when it comes to photo shoots. However, it's rare that I can photograph them both smiling at the same time, so this is one with my daughter smiling and my son about to jump out of her lap :). For this layout, I love the new October Afternoon Report Card Collection. The colors are really bright and fun with lots of potential, especially for kids. I also used the OA Mini Market Sticker letters in the title along with American Crafts to break it up.

Have fun with the sketch and thank you for stopping by - Liz

A Little More than Excited

I'm very excited to announce that I will be joining the new Design Team at Imaginisce! I have fallen in love with all of their bright, fun and perfect for my two little stinkers collections. Not to mention all of the other wonderful product created by this amazing company.



Imaginisce frequently posts really clever project ideas and give aways on their blog. Please come by for a look see. Below is one of the cards I submitted with my application using the Polar Expressions collection. This holiday line is full of fun and can easily be used in a variety of ways. Please see my Sunday Sketch from November 1st for an idea on how to use these papers for everyday layouts.

Reveal Day

My Creative Scrapbook is excited to reveal the November Kits. Please come check out the Design Team Gallery here. Below are a few of my projects from the Main Kit featuring The Teresa Collins Friendship Collection and the Creative Kit featuring the Simple Pleasures Collection from 3 Bugs in a Rug. Both of these kits are loaded with goodies and were so much fun to play with. Thanks again to Pam for putting together another month of scrapbooking heaven.

Tuesday Mornings

This weeks ideas:
Do you like red shoes? I love them...and so does my daughter. These little Ragg Polka Dot Taryn Ballet Flats are her favorite shoes right now. We found them at amazon.com for less than $15 and received free shipping on our order.


Adorn It Tiny Alphabet stickers from Carolee's Creations are a must have. These itty bitty letters are the perfect way to break up your titles and add captions to photos and cards. Found these at Scrapbook.com for less than a $1.


We have not had television at our home for 10 years, so I have not seen this infomercial, but...there is something to be said about going green with Shamwow. No more paper towels to clean up after the two "spillers" who reside at my home.

ShamWow washes, dries and polishes any surface. It's like a towel, chamois and sponge all in one!

• For home, car, spills, pet stains, bathrooms and more
• Super absorbent
• One swipe and your spills are gone
• ShamWow towels are machine washable and bleachable
• Made in Germany

You can find a box of eight Shamwows at Walmart for less than $20.

The Force meets Halloween

Check out the two little Halloween stinkers before Trick or Treating.


Now look at what happens after all of the excitement and mischief...

Sunday Sketch, November 1st

Time to use up some photos. Do you have two 5x7 photos that go together? This week's sketch is all about big photos and big titles. Have fun.


What do you do with all of your Holiday papers after the season has passed by? Simple, use them in everyday layouts just like your other papers. In this layout, I used some of the less heavily patterned papers to make a layout of my daughter and her multiple personalities. The Polar Expression papers from Imaginisce have a great color palette and a wide variety of patterns that made it easy to switch from winter and Christmas to just a bright, fun layout.
