Love is in the air...

Love is in the air over at the House of Paper. This week, the Design Team got to show some love in their projects.
This layout was made using Sassafras Monstrosity papers.

Here's a card I made using some of the new Fancy Pants papers.

Go check out the HOP shop for some GREAT sales!

Them Crooked Vultures



Did anyone catch Them Crooked Vultures on SNL this week? I really enjoyed it. Them Crooked Vultures is a rock supergroup that includes John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin), Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) and Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age). Back in 2005 Dave said "The next project that I'm trying to initiate involves me on drums, Josh Homme on guitar, and John Paul Jones playing bass. That’s the next album. That wouldn’t suck."

And true to his words, it doesn't!

52 Challenges - Fabulous Flamingals

Here's another layout inspired by a Starbucks gift card for my 52 Challenges:


I used mostly Basic Grey Urban Prairie. This is me, Heather & Karen...the fabulous FlaminGals. NO, not Flaming Gals. FlaminGals...as in flamingo gals. It's a long story. But I get to see them tomorrow night and scrap! Can't wait!

I Gotta Feeling!

This week's theme over at the House of Paper was to use lyrics from the Black Eyed Peas song "I Gotta Feeling." Here are my two layouts:
I took a little liberty with the lyrics for this one. The lyrics should be "party everyday, p-p-p-party everyday." Well, I swapped out party for potty. haha The layout is about the outhouse my dad made and the old man that sits inside.

The Beatles Rockband was released on 09.09.09 and we had a little release party at our house and played all night. It was fun!

I used the new Making Memories Love Struck papers and Fancy Pants Frosted papers as well as lots of goodies...all from the House of Paper.

52 Challenges - Dress

Here's another layout I did using the first challenge from the new book I got. The challenge was to be inspired by an outfit. I love vintage dresses especially from the 50s. (I love the show Mad Men!) I found this dress online and fell in love:

So I used it for my inspiration for this layout:

I found misc. rose prints online, printed & cut them out. I used American Craft Thickers and Elle's Studio Journaling Tags from the HOP store. TFL!

How well do you know Lost?

Here's a fun little quiz to get you in the mood for tomorrow night's Final Season premiere episode!

52 More Scrapbooking Challenges

So I bought this book a few months ago and I love it. I've been posting challenges from it every week over at the House of Paper. The 3rd challenge was to be inspired by a home-decor item.

I found this bedding online at Bed, Bath & Beyond and fell in love with it. (I wish I actually owned it.) So I used it as inspiration.


Here's what I came up with:






I used old misc. Basic Grey scraps from my stash and My Little Shoebox mini-alphas and MME Bling alphas from HOP. I hand-stitched the lines at the top and made the flowers by hand. It was great fun to be inspired by a comforter! Come play along with us over at the House of Paper! :)
