May project kit little peek.

It's almost done and I can't wait to share the whole album with you, but for now all I can do is give you a little peek at the cover.


Yes that is the brand new Pink Paislee canvas album you see!!

What a fun weekend!

We had the spring crop over at Cocoa Daisy this weekend and we had so much fun! If you missed you really should plan on attending our next crop this fall. I think aside from all the great friends you get to crop with all weekend the best part of the crop is the loads of inspiration!! Plenty of challenges and classes were posted to get your creative juices flowing!! You can still join in on the challenges (they are open all week) and of course the classes are on-line so you can take them whenever you have some time!

You can take my Spring Flight class here.

The CROP IS ON!!

Please come and join us this weekend for the Cocoa Daisy Spring Crop, it is packed full of challenges, classes and inspiration!

Some Cocoa Daisy May sneaks!

Just a few little bits to hold you over till the big reveal:




Ooooo....and have you heard the news!! The Cocoa Daisy SPRING CROP is this weekend!! So much fun and inspiration packed into three days, I hope you can join us for the fun.


Here is a little tease for the class I will be hosting during the crop:

A few cards from the April kit.

Before I start posting some sneaks from the May kit I wanted to share a couple cards I made using the April kit:



Yesterday my Mom babysat Zach and when I came back to pick him up he was so excited, he had picked flowers for me. Right away he gave them to me and said "I got the flowers so I could love you". Now those are the moments that make it all worth while! Of course Mom was there to snap some pictures for me - thanks Mom :)






Look for some sneaks of the fabulous May Cocoa Daisy kit on Monday.

April "Scraps" layout

For this months idea on how to use up your scraps I thought we would talk about squares. The patterns in the papers from this months kit just begged to be combined and one of the easiest ways I know to do that is by punching them into squares. Using a large square punch not only makes it easy to use up your leftover pieces of patterned paper but it also makes it easy to use your less then perfect photos. There are so many different ways you can combine your square photos and paper, I went with a large grid design that covers the whole page:




Just add some leftover bits of this and that to your squares and you have an easy to assemble page!!

April Cocoa Daisy layouts.

I loved the colors in this months kit so much I had to have the Beacon patterned paper add-on and the Reef add-on. I kept finding more photos that went so well with the colors and patterns in this kit that I have finished 7 layouts, a couple cards and I still have a ton of product left!!

Here are five of the layouts (you will see the others later this month):




I loved this little two step stamp that came in the main kit:












I hope you all had a wonderful Easter - can't wait to share some fun photos of our weekend!
