AMM March DT Layouts!

March marks my first month designing for A Million Memories. March's kit feature yummy goodness from My Mind's Eye "Gertie" collection. My layouts came together so easily - I was spoiled with this kit!

My absolute favourite item in this kit is the doily stamps. Even better is they are only $5.99. It's a steal!

Here are my layouts:

As you can see, this line is perfect for a multitude of different subjects - boy, girl, vacation....!
AMM is also having a huge sale right now. And I mean HUGE! Almost everything in the store is 55% off (excluding new items)! Hurry over - the sale ends today.

Happy Weekend everyone! I hope you're all doing what you love to do best. I'm looking forward to my Sunday morning with family....Hockey game and then breakfast out....it's the little things!

Echo Park Love!

Good ol' Blogger. I had a nice, detailed post going and all of a sudden it freezes and it's gone. Frustrating. So for now...the abridged version!

I'm a big fan of Echo Park paper. I've loved pretty much every line they have put out in their short time in the industry. They came fierce with great lines that are so versatile! They recently posted a challenge on their blog, but it was anything but! I had a lot of fun creating these layouts with For the Record and Springtime collections:


And look......that brother and sister. Sitting in a picture together, actually touching each other without yelling or having a fight! Your eyes are not deceiving you! It's real. It's one of my fave photos ever. Speaking of those children, Brendan made the competitive soccer team again this summer. Go Hornets! Hockey playoffs start next week. Go Stingers! Olivia is seriously killing the guitar. I can't believe she's only been playing since October - she is so good! If I can figure out how to get a video up here, I'll post one of her playing. She rocks! She'll be playing soccer this summer too and is still going strong with Brownies.

Finally - life has thrown me a lot of curve balls lately. However, we are all healthy and safe. When I start to feel down about all that is going on, I've been thinking about Japan. "Disaster" does not even begin to explain the devastation. I pray that they all find peace.....and hopefully soonre than later.

I think I will go and start a layout with some new goodies! BG Hello Luscious or Studio Calico's March kit?!? Decisions, decisions.... :)

March's challenge over at A Million Memories is a great one! It involves a sketch created by me, as well as an additional challenge thrown into the sketch by my fellow DT'er, Zoe.

March AMM kit!

Be still my heart! The March kit at AMM is jam-packed with all new CHA releases! "My Granny's Place" is filled with prodcuts that have a vintage feel. However, I can totally think of MANY different types of layouts to do with this kit. It is chock-full of new My Mind's Eye Stella and Rose collection. And the Maya Road chipboard and woodgrain thickers? Drool! I'm looking forward to our reveal!


Grab yours now here before they are all gone.
