Cosmo Cricket Salt Air projects

So I stopped by my friend Sarah de Guzman's store in Newark recently and picked up the new Salt Air line from Cosmo Cricket.
Can I just say this line is amazing? And so versatile too!

Seal Rock layout:


Cosmo Cricket: Salt air paper, tiny alpha's and chipboard shapes; Epiphany Crafts: studio round epoxy tool and vintage settings; jillibean soup: bean stalks red twine; Maya road: chipboard banner pieces; Studio Calico: Mister huey's lunch tray mist; Martha Stewart: punch; Bazzill: cardstock

At the beach layout:

I don't typically do a whole lot of handwriting on my layouts, but this was so fun. I used a Glaze pen by Sakura and alternated words with teeny tiny alphas.

You're Invited card:

Who doesn't love a fun beach themed invite? Just a simple card I whipped up using the Salt air papers, and 1 inch round epoxy tool from Epiphany Crafts.

Decided to do one last card that did not have a beach theme

Just for you card:



If you live in the bay area check out Sarah's store Our Paper Place
for all the materials to make these projects. You will get amazing service and leave there with tons of inspiration too!

Thanks for looking!

One for Monday...

Well it looks like the stomach flu hit our house. Kalee is home sick today and I have been very busy between taking care of her and cleaning the carpet. Not sure why kids never seem to make it to the bathroom on time when they get sick, but it makes me very glad that we invested in a carpet shampooer a few years ago.


Here is a fun layout that I created over the weekend before the flu hit our house.
It is a photo of me with my good friend Suzy West. I used the Domestic Bliss line (Lily Bee), mixed in with 1 page from the Christmas Town line for this layout.
I made those fun flowers on the page using a tutorial that I got off of the the Lily Bee blog So fun!

That's it for today. I am off for round 3 of shampooing the carpet. Wish me luck!

some fun projects to share using Jillibean soup...

I have a fun layout and a card to share today using various lines of Jillibean soup.

One

a layout of my sweet niece Sophia when she was one year old. I couldn't find the corrugated alpha in the color that I wanted (at my local scrapbook store) so I decided to paint it brown. I just love how it came out! For this layout I used Jillibean soup: Old World Cabbage collection: spring onions, brown rice, diced tomatoes; chicken noodle collection: dried noodles; bean stalk collection bakers twine - orange: alphabeans collection corrugated alpha - blue; Martha Stewart: butterly punch; EK success: scallop punch; Bazzill: black cardstock; Creative Memories: corner rounder; Folk Art: brown paint; other: corrugated cardboard

#1 teacher card
