July Template Bundle

Posted on July 11, 2014 by Jennifer

Connie Prince’s July Template Bundle is on sale now! Four full size packs (that’s 16 templates) for just $3.99! Big picture spaces, multiple photo layouts, lots of paper pieces, and lots of white space are the 4 themes.

I have a layout using The Big Picture Vol 7. It also uses the recent release Bon Voyage. The pictures are from our Disney cruise in January 2013. Journaling reads: “The motor coach drove us back to Port Canaveral to the cruise ship terminal. While we walked through the terminal, we came across this neat model of our ship.”2014-07-11_LO_Model-Ship

Hold On Tight

Posted on July 10, 2014 by Jennifer

What is your favorite ride at the happiest place on earth? Do you like crazy roller coasters and the twisting tea cups or is a relaxed safari more your style? This bright and cheerful kit will help you remember your favorite moments from any amusement park, but the elements are specific to some of the most popular rides at the most beloved family destination. Enjoy scrapping your last vacation with this kit! You can get this kit at both SNP or MyMemories the first week of release for only $3.00.

I was really excited when I first saw this kit. I still have a lot of photos to scrap from our January 2013 Disney Cruise, plus we’re going to Florida soon for a fun-filled Disney World vacation. I have 2 layouts, one of which is a double page, to share today.  First up is all about the Pirates of the Caribbean. Journaling reads: “This was the one ride I had to ride since Pirates of the Caribbean is my all time favorite movie. I kinda knew Jessica wouldn’t like it, but we all went on it anyway. As predicted, Jessica wasn’t a fan. After fussing in the line Janette ended up falling asleep during the ride, which was good, since she needed a second nap today.”2014-07-10_LO_Pirates-of-the-Caribbean

Next up is a double page about the Jungle Cruise. Journaling reads: After the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, we headed over to the Jungle Cruise, where our fast past tickets allowed us to get on the ride almost immediately. Janette started off the ride still asleep, but woke up near the end. The animatronic animals were amazing! The tour guide was pretty corny. We all enjoyed ourselves on this ride.”

Along the Seashore

Posted on July 1, 2014 by Jennifer

I’ve joined the Creative Team of Scraps N Pieces. I’m pretty excited, since I love their designs. Along the Seashore is the first kit I got to work with. It is part of July’s Bits N Pieces over at SNP. These colors worked so well for a romantic beach kit. Perfect for an evening stroll, or even a beach wedding. You will love the soft romantic colors and realistic elements in this beautiful kit. There are papers, elements, and a vellum alpha for you this month. They are all just $1 each peice for the first week and then will be combined into a full kit and go to regular price. Grab them while they are on sale today through July 7th!

Here are my layouts using The Good Life Vol 6. The first layout uses Beach Trip by True North Scraps. You can check out this post for details regarding the kit. Journaling reads: After checking out of our hotel in Holland, we drove to Holland State Park. We spent the rest of the morning checking out the lighthouse, and walking along the beach. The Lake Michigan water was a bit nippy at first.2014-05-29_LO_Holland-State-Park

My second layout is for my P52 project for this year. I’m a little behind, but I went ahead and skipped forward to week 19. Journaling reads: Wednesday when I brought Jessica to school, I handed one of the wrapped thumbprint trees for her teachers to her and one to a classmate for them to deliver to Ms. Erin and Ms. Maria. The kids were so excited to help them open the trees they helped create. After my weekly walk with Beini, I went to Target and picked up the $25 gift card for each of them and dropped those off when I picked the girls up from school. Teacher appreciation week was a hit. Thursday, was the last MOPS meeting until September. I’ve really enjoyed the conversation at my Green Table. That afternoon was Jessica’s swim lesson. Late that night my parents arrived. Friday morning, my parents watched the girls with their bicycle/tricycle on the driveway while James and I cleaned up breakfast and packed the car. Then we hit the road to Houston for the weekend. On the way, we stopped in Bastrop for lunch and Brenham to visit the Blue Bell Ice Creameries for a tour and snack. Saturday, we went to the zoo, which was awesome. Sunday, we enjoyed the Houston Museum of Natural HIstory. After a late lunch, we returned to Austin. Monday, was low key with lots of dress-up time. Making Pillsbury biscuits with the girls is always a hit. Tuesday morning was Janette’s parent/teacher conference. We are so proud of her accomplishments this year. Janette enjoyed some dress-up after school, before we went to the YMCA for Jessica’s swim lesson.

I love lighthouses. They are so cool! Needless to say, the two lighthouses in Beach Trip are my favorite part. Today, I’m sharing one layout using Beach Trip. Make sure and come back next Thursday when I’ll share another one. Today’s layout is from our 2005 trip to Michigan and Chicago.
