Two, two, too cute! July 13, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — laurascrap @ 3:04 am

I love, love, l-o-v-e October Afternoon.  There products are to die for and the color combinations are brilliant!  Who knew that pink, grey, red and green could look so amazing together.  Well maybe some people already did-but I didn’t and I”m loving it!  And they’re just the right combination of vintage and fun!

Here’s a layout I did using the Cherry Hill line.  When I bought the papers I bought two sets because I loved it so much and I’m so super glad I did!

See these kids?  Two of them are mine, two of them are a friends.  It’s not that often that you are blessed to have great friends with great kids.  It’s extra gravy bonus when they’re the same ages and they’re all girls!

Thanks for looking!

Nikki Sivils project July 8, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — laurascrap @ 10:56 pm

So yeah, I know, my post titles leave much to be desired but heck why make it all flowery and have people wonder what I’m talking about?

If you haven’t heard about Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker let me tell you about her.  She is a brand spanking new manufacturer that is debuting at CHA Summer 2009.  Her products are fresh, cute and fun and she’s got the whole thing going on!  From papers to stamps and brads and these super cute inventive products callled bread{less} tags.  Which you can do a gazillion different things with – paint them, use rubons, stamp, alcohol inks – I’m still discovering all the possibilities.

And her husband is fun too!  He came up with these clever catch phrases on the back of the product packaging that I totally get!  I literally couldn’t stop laughing reading them all.

Here is a mini book I did using the Victoria’s Street line.  It really conveyed the mood that I wanted to express through this album – meaningful yet fun.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Dream Street Papers sneaks have started!!! July 7, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — laurascrap @ 3:36 pm

Twice a year I seriously look forward to being amazed by the new designs that the Dream Street Papers designers come up with.  And every time I’m blown away at the creativity the designers come up with.  Once again my socks have been knocked off!

This summer Dream Street Papers is releasing 5 new lines with coordinating rubons, alphas and die cuts.  Wanna see?
