Postcards from Paris

Happy New Year! Hope you had a great time celebrating during the holiday season. These past few weeks flew by faster than the rest of the year for me.

And with that, I have two new pages to share! I blogged over at the Everything Scrapp'n blog too. I decided to look over the past year and document some of the things I did in 2009. The Postcards from Paris line is perfectly feminine. Here is my take on Suz's recent challenge:Products used: Websters Pages Postcards from Paris Romantique Chic pp, La Boutique de Jardin pp, La Jardin Whimsy threads, Hambly Old Lace overlay-brown, Hambly Vintage banner rub on-brown, Hambly Chandelier clear stickers, American Crafts Foam Thickers Daydream-chestnut, On A Whimsy journaling book (page), Jenni Bowlin Apothecary stickers-brown, Staz on Ink-brown, brown embroidery floss, Hero Arts lower case alpha stamps, & Making Memories Passport clear stamps.

The font on these thickers is so fun and youthful. I might just have to buy them in every color. They are definitely a must have!I had plans to make a few birthday cards since I have friends with special days coming up. Suddenly I got really inspired to make a 6x12 and just went with the flow. I scrapped a polaroid taken (by Suzy West) back in April of this year with a bunch of scrapbooking friends.
Products used: Websters Pages Postcards from Paris La Boutique de Jardin pp, Tim Holtz word key, American Crafts Craft fair DIY flair, Hambly DIY rub on-white, Jenni Bowlin Apothecary stickers-brown, Martha Stewart border punch scallop dot & Acrylic paint-white.

I really like the La Boutique de Jardin paper. The Whimsy threads came backed with the same paper so I made use of it as well.
What did you do last year? What are your goals for this new year or new decade? I hope to see you playing along with the DT and this super fun challenge! I'll be back with lots of catch up photos and this week.

The First Day of 2008

I hope that everyone has a year filled with happiness and creativity. My favorite Christmas line is the Love Elsie Noel line.


I got a chance to look at some of the photos I took for Kyle. I had so much fun photographing his family. They would make such great band photos if they were putting out a CD! From left to right: Kyle, Jenna, and Jimmy.


A wonderful surprise arrived from Canada on Monday. Michelle amazes me with her incredible ability to know my style so well! I love everything, especially the adorable polaroid camera that she made for me. You totally spoiled me!


We had a relaxing new years eve this year. As you can see, my room is in a bit of a creative mess state at the moment. We had a lot of fun taking polaroid pictures with my new camera. I'll be uploading those to flickr shortly.


Last year I decided it would be fun to take a photo every day. Its a lot harder than it sounds. I am always looking for the most artistic perspective. I'm going to try again this year. One year ago today I was at Linda Mar Beach taking photos so I decided it would be a nice tradition to start. Dan & I met Zena and Brewster for a nice walk along the beach.
