Quirky Chronicles....

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

its sounds like the title for a book of memories doesn't it? well it is a delightful new kit by Gypsy Couture, released today. It is stuffed full with fun and unusual bits and pieces.

and my LO...

I also used one of Lisa's Page Genies #3 templates

and one of the Journal Prompts - aren't they FUN?


Lisa also added a Designer Resource to the store today Flower Shapes

and to top it all off : you can save 30% off everything in Lisa's store until the 26th



Happy Scrapping!!

Don't Miss This....

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

this is a great opportunity to pick up some of Rina Kroes' older kits. They may be older but they are not 'old' kwim? Rina is pulling them off the shelf to make room for all her super new goodies...but they will disappear any day now, they have been on Close Out for a few weeks. For -on average- $2.50 you can get a full kit, or a 12x12 album or a 4x6 album. There is even one 5x7 album, and a couple element packs. Most kits are also available as papers & elements separately. Head on over HERE and see the deals for yourself!

I'll show you a few kits and some LO's all images are linked. (go to the galleries for full credits for the LO's)

I'm sad to see these ones go...but I do look forward to Rina's new releases...

Finally, the July month-in-review QP and template are posted

You can find the QP on Kimmi's blog and the template on Rina's blog...while you are there....look at earlier posts to collect the QP's and templates all the way back to January!

Giving Teddy a Bath....

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

Think about it.....I'm very glad I never did actually stick my teddy in the bath, but the only reason for that is probably that I was already 7 by the time I got my first teddy. And these were the teddies stuffed with a strawlike substance, certainly not suited for the tub.

I scrapped this page of 'Snoetjies' a couple years ago (click image to go to the gallery for full credits)

But what got me onto the theme of bathing teddy, is this kit by Kimberly Stewart "Teddy in the Tub" isn't it cute?

I scrapped this page with this delightful kit....and where oh where did I put the rest of my bathtime pictures....hmmmmmm?!?

Go head and scrap teddy/kiddo in the tub!!!

Meadow Breeze...what a good idea!

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

When summer comes to our part of the world...it comes! And I love the wonderful breeze that keeps us cool when the days are loooong and hot!

Rina Kroes' "Meadow Breeze" Page Set captures the feeling of that cool breeze beautifully and it also was perfect for scrapping our yearly treat of wild daisies. they look really pretty, but they are very hard on allergy prone folks so we do have to cull them every other year, just to keep the numbers in check. And every year I take pictures...I just cannot resist it! LOL

Meadow Breeze is still on sale today

and the daisies : ready to join the line-up waiting to become part of my 'nature' album!

I used a template from Kim Hollibone's In Your Own Words Set, the butterflies are by Saxon Holt : Butterflies 1 and Butterflies 2. The bead alpha is by Ziggle.
Go ahead and scrap those breezy summer days!

On a Sunny Day...

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

I did it again! A whole week just flew past and I never even posted...it really must be summer!

Gypsy Couture released her new kit today : Party On The Patio. Isn't it FUN?!?

I used it, together with a template from Page Genies #4 for my LO.

Never take a picture full in the sun....unless you want to chuckle over it for years to come...this one always makes me smile...

The cool dotted border is by Annick Philibert.

I have a little freebie for you today, that you can download HERE.

Have a great day...hope to see you before next Thursday LOL!

Where did the week go?

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

Look at this! It's been a whole week since I posted...now how did that happen?

Summer schedule I suppose...LOL

Gypsy Couture has a new kit in her store this week : Peace and Quiet

I used it to scrap some old camping pictures. I can still smell the canvas of the tent...and feel the sand between my toes and between the sheets...ack! teeheee

I also used one of Lisa's Page Genies for this LO I did yesterday



I used items taken from Kiki Halbert's Symphony Page Set, the green paper is from Saxon Holt's Rainforest Paper Pack and the alpha is Kimberly Stewart's Grape (from the Tooty Fruity Collection Set 3). The Tucked Photo Template is by Thao Cosgrove and the bg is 'build' with a Page Genie by Gypsy Couture.
I busy getting my pictures organized to hopefully get some scrapping organized. my idea is to do something along the lines of what I used to do when paper scrapping : collect all the goodies for a pages/set of pages in one folder and when scrapping tie comes, you pull out and scrap it quickly and efficiently...well it's worth a try!! we'll soon see if it's workable or not!

Gentle Morning

Pictures/previews for this page have been removed due to Designers retiring and stores closing

I had forgotten just how a tired kitten can sleep. You know what I mean? You can talk and prod and pick up....and all they do is sleep. I really wanted to take some pictures of this little guy, but he was not going to oblige me with anything more than a sleeping pose.

Just Adorable....nothing more, nothing less.

Gypsy Couture's "Gentle Morning" Page Set is what I used. New in the store today and as always on sale on the day of release! Isn't is beautiful?
For more LO's with this kit, take a look at Gypsy Couture's Gallery at The DigiChick. The CT has some fabulous LO's posted there.

Happy Canada Day!

Have a happy day! Best wishes for a fun day to my fellow Canadians!!!

Life has been busy around here. Summer holidays means a change in schedule, but by no means does it get quieter around here. I have more LO's to show you and I hope to do that soon, but for today I'm going to leave you with just this little freebie mini kit. Only 5 papers and a few elements. (I relied completely on commercial use items for the elements (only realized yesterday that I need this done for today...so if you are not 'allergic' to CU stuff, enjoy! and if you are...well...you've been warned....LOL)

Download your freebie HERE.

Happy scrapping till the next time!
