My Life November

Posted on by

As the year winds down into a cozy end, gratitude and happiness are on everyone’s mind – along with turkey, holiday plans, and anticipating snow. My Life… November, the latest kit in Scraps N Pieces’ monthly series, reflects upon the way November makes us feel and makes it easier to get pages scrapped while snuggling up. The warm, subdued color palette feels like a warm fire or gathering around the Thanksgiving table and the elements pair perfectly. Highlights include turkey, gourds, pumpkins, pies, Pilgrims, fall leaves, and vintage ephemera. As always, there is a plethora of perfectly themed patterned papers, and a warm wooden alpha. If you’re short of time, this amazing kit also comes with pre-made clustered frames, a quickpage, and a calendar – all things to be thankful for! Use My Life… November to scrap all your gratitude this month and free time to make more memories.

Bundle and kit on sale this week at all of Scraps N Pieces’ stores

Travelogue Minnesota

Posted on by

I absolutely adore Connie Prince’s Travelogue Series. The latest installment in the series is Travelogue Minnesota available at Gingerscraps and the The Digi Chick!

The only time I’ve been to Minnesota was a layover on my way to Madison, WI. The weather was not the greatest, so it did turn into a 6-hour layover. My friends Katie and Stacy, whom I was traveling with to attend the ASCE Student Confence, and I did leave the airport and hit up the Mall of America, but alas I don’t have any pictures to prove that. Now, my sister-in-law’s brother does live in Minnesota and I remembered that my brother, sister-in-law, and niece did travel to Minnesota when he got married, so I asked Julia to share some photos and I decided to scrap these two on the shore of Lake Superior. Lake Superior does look mighty massive.

I decided to scrap some non-Minnesota photos too. I did add a flair and some greenery from Travelogue New York, but I thought Travelogue Minnesota worked quite well to scrap these photos of High Falls in Rochester, NY. That trip in 2013 was the last trip James and I took just the two of us. I had hoped for us to sneak away this summer too, but it didn’t quite work out. Next summer though!
