Creating with NEW Webster's Pages!

I'm so happy to be able to share with you a layout that I created using the brand new "Make a Wish" collection from Webster's Pages!

It brings together so much that I love: gold, pink, pastels, adorable little details that make me question whether I'm crafting with scrapbook supplies or candy.

Seriously good enough to eat.

Paper strips and pieces, stickers, punched bits, embellishments on a stick, flowers, doily, cord, epoxy stickers, thread...so many pretty things to compliment my sweet daughter.

I don't really have a set formula or direction for the way I do things. I just tuck and add and adjust until it looks good.

And I actually never secure anything until I'm pretty much done. So gluing can be tedious, but I like to change around so much that there's just no other way.

Thanks for letting me share today :)

I hope you all have a great weekend!

*NEW* Princess Collection from Prima {Winter CHA}

I'm back today with yet another reveal for Prima, this time the beautiful "Princess" Collection by Jodie Lee. This line delivers exactly what you expect from Jodie Lee: soft, beautiful imagery and colors that we all long for and simply cannot wait to create with! Here is a mini album that I put together for my daughter, my very own little princess ;)

Prima Marketing "Princess" Collection

"With Special Thoughts of You" Mini Album

This album is filled with photos, quotes and poems, pretty patterns, flowers, and details. Something special for my daughter to treasure :)

Let's take a closer look...

I found some of the sweetest princess poems online. And oh, how they match my little girl SO well!

 One of Ingvild Bolme's Shabby Chic Treasures Butterflies, as well as a brad and wood embellishment from the Princess collection were a great ay to start out this princess-packed book :) And I truly just love the new doily stickers- don't you?

 I've used some of the Princess Collection Cling Stamps throughout, like the flower vine you see on this page. I also love that a few "Sugardots" are included with each pack of brads this time around.

Here you can see one of the new Princess Collection Flair Buttons, as well as one of Prima's new stickers for my title.

A neat feature of some of the new wooden embellishments in this collection is that they come already "dressed" for you- this butterfly looks as if it's had gesso applied and then distressed. I love that!
The little banner piece is from the Princess Collection Brads pack and my title comes from the packaging.

Such stunning vintage imagery, for which Jodie Lee has an amazing eye! 
 More wood embellishments, sugar dots, and stickers.

 I personally like to cut off the barbs on the back of the brads and glue them wherever I like.

Webster's Pages May Challenge: Stickers~!!

Good morning, my friends! Thanks to all of you who took part in the C'est Magnifique Blog Hop this past weekend- what fun! Stay tuned over the next couple of days for the winner of my RAK ;)

Today I'm giving you a little insight to and head-start on the May Challenge over at the Webster's Pages InspireME site: Stickers!! I think we all- at least in the beginning of our scrappy careers- have been associated with stickers at one point or another. I must admit- stickers terrify me a bit, haha! They're permanent little buggers- and hard to move! So I've learned that if I use them, I first mount the on cardstock or other paper first, cut around- and use them that way :).

I have some inspiration for you to get your ideas going for this challenge, featuring the happy & fresh Sweet Notes collection! 

"This Wonderful Life Makes Me Happy"

This is the first time I've had the pleasure of working with this collection and I just LOVE it~!! Yet another photo of my daughter on Easter- I was again worried about being able to get it scrapped in color as I don't generally scrap such bright colors. But Sweet Notes was a perfect match! Gotta love that :)

The Sweet Notes Collection Pack comes with a 12"x12" alpha & sticker tag sheet just filled with lots of little goodies like this adorable "love notes" tag and heart sticker. I've fussy cut the other designs and layered them all for a custom embellishment :).

I've applied the same idea here, but this time I've used the green sticker as my base. You can also see that I've torn some strips of washi tape to add some bits of color to the background. And isn't that resin blue bird just the prettiest?!

This project was created on canvas. I tore apart some dictionary pages and glued them in layers over the entire canvas. Then I covered the whole thing with gesso before adding bits of masking, embossing, stamping, and mists. Fun!

I've used the adorable Bubbly Background stamp in a few different colors throughout the canvas. The "this wonderful life" part of my title was cut from the Modern Romance Sentiment Stickers, and the "makes me happy" part is another from the Sweet Notes sticker sheet.

Webster's Pages: A Classic Tag Set~!

Hey there everyone :). I know- it's been quiet here on my blog. But I'm so happy to share that tomorrow we finally close on the house we're buying and if all goes well, we will be moving in tomorrow afternoon! This home buying process truly has consumed my time, energy, and emotion. But thankfully it's nearly done and I can hopefully get my life back to normal- which definitely means more time for scrapping!

I have been working on things behind the scene, and today I get to share with you a tag set I created in the "classic" style, which on the Webster's Pages blog this week, we have been celebrating both the Classic and Clean & Simple styles- and that no matter your style, it's just as beautiful as the next!

"Classic Tag Set"

 Here you see old, you see new...you see how beautifully Webster's Pages collections can coexist! I've always loved that!

Here's a closer look at each one:

On each tag I've used one of the new Mini Bags- to hide a secret message or whatever you'd like! 

On this tag I also showcased the new Ruffled Bloomer Trim, as well as a cameo from the LiveLaughLove Perfect Pack.

 Sunday Picnic, Best Friends, Park Drive- they've all come to play too! What fun to take bits and pieces from each collection and create something harmonious!

No matter your style- Classic or Clean & Simple- you've probably done a little bit of fussy cutting if you've played with Webster's Pages. There are so many images, both big and small, available for all types of fussy cutters. I personally am a patient fussy cutter- and I don't mind trimming out the small stuff :).

Sunday Picnic, Best Friends, Park Drive, and some classic bloomers brought this tag to life :).

This was actually the first tag of the set that I created- and then added more to later on. I love gray/blue/yellow together- and this little guy in the car from the New Beginnings collection was the final touch. He was just mean to be!

Here we have Botanical Christmas, Everyday Poetry, and Sunday Picnic for papers, with a mini bag from Composition & Color- what a mix!

Take care and I'll be back on Saturday with a new post!

Putting the Webster's Pages Warehouse Box to Work~!

**Just three more days to enter my November giveaway HERE~!**

Did you know that Webster's Pages is having a HUGE Warehouse sale going on right now?! Well, they are- and there's only 48 more hours to go before your chance at this amazing deal is gone~! I was probably one of the first people to see this box- let alone USE it- and I must say, I was blown away. I cannot believe that this box sells for a mere $25.00~ there is SO MUCH in it!! And today, I'm here to share with you a layout I put together using exclusively some of the items contained in this box. So let's go!

"Dream, Love, Play"

Do you have those photos you just LOVE and cannot scrap them until you find that PERFECT place to put them? This is one of those photos. My sweet baby Gunner all bundled up outside. Such a beautiful child :). He's so fun and full of life and I wanted to write him a little message reminding him to always be this way.

Endless possibilities with the contents of this box. I've combined Webster's Pages "Botanical Christmas", "Everyday Poetry", and "Sunday Picnic" papers here, along with a variety of Fabric Flowers, StoryMarkers, Doilies, Bling Strips, Transparencies, Cardstock Stickers, Trims, Letter Stickers, and of course plenty of fussy cutting~!

Here's another look at the Warehouse Box and its contents:

So glad you came by here today to say hi...and I hope you are able to get one of these boxes for yourself because you'll just have so much fun playing, I have no doubt :)~! Have a great rest of your day and I'll see you back VERY soon with some more Warehouse Box inspiration :)~ See you then,

Christmas Card Time~!! (with Webster's Pages)

**For my November giveaway, please go HERE**

Ah, we've reached the halfway point in the week now~ always such a relief! Although I must say these days have just been flying by~!! Many of you have your eyes set on Christmas and have been busy shopping I'm sure...me? I haven't started my shopping, but decorating began last night! Always love looking at lights again for the first time of the season :).

I've also been busy making Christmas cards~! And today I have another set to share with you that I created for Webster's Pages, using yet again their endlessly beautiful "Royal Christmas" collection.

"Royal Christmas" Card Set

When creating a card set, I like them to all have a uniform look, while being their own individual pieces. So for this set I chose a basic 6"x6" size, along with some of the beautiful Webster's Pages embellishments, stickers, and trim, and went to work.

You can't get much more "royal" than purple and gold! This was the first card I created of the set, and I just knew I had to try out the bold purple found in this collection. The gorgeous design found in the "Delights" paper worked perfectly for my background, and drew in both the gold and purple colors I was wanting to combine.

I also just love the Webster's Pages cameos, including this "Blue Bell" piece! And sentiments are made easy by using the "Word Block Stickers", also available in this collection.

 Card #2 ended up being my favorite :). I just love the classic gold and red combo! Some fussy cutting for some borders, paired with the "Lace Gold" trim to the left added some texture and interest to accompany the "highlight" of my card, which of course is my sentiment and StoryMarker.

The "Royal Christmas" StoryMarkers are breathtaking, aren't they?? I just love the elegant detail they add!

My final piece incorporated the subtle pink found in the collection, again with gold. I loved this "Pink Candy" Cameo and knew I just had to use it. So I paired it with the delicious treat motif from the "Greeting Cards" paper.

Products Used:

"Royal Christmas" Collection Pack

"Royal Christmas" Tags & Prompts

"Royal Christmas" Word Block Stickers
