An Inchworm and some layouts

TGIF!! I hope everyone had a great week!


This little one turned 8 months this week and she is a little inchworm, squirming her way around the house to get what she wants! (esp. her Big Sister's toys!)

She is doing great, although she still doesn't have any teeth, but she sure does like to eat, regardless!


 

I had the chance to work on my A Million Memories January kit.  I had a lot of fun working with something fresh and new and really enjoyed working with all of the Webster's Pages paper and the Prima flowers and pearls.
Here are some examples:


I always love working with florals, especially in the Winter when nature outside is so gray..It makes me look forward to Springtime that's for sure!
Have a Fabulous weekend and thanks for stopping by...

Holiday '09 Top 9

Happy January!
It's been a few weeks since I last blogged, but I have been trying to finish all my Christmas and Holiday layouts.  Don't get me wrong, I love taking pictures and the products for this time of year, but I am SICK of seeing them and want to move onto something fresh and new.  I think that all of the CHA-W sneaks don't help much either.  Some of my favorite new lines so far that I've seen are: American Crafts partnership with Elizabeth K. http://americancrafts.typepad.com/studio/2010/01/cha-sneak-peek-dear-lizzy.html , all the new Maya Road chipboard products http://mayaroad.typepad.com/mayaroad/2010/01/day-4-are-you-ready-for-more.html , and the Sassafras Cherry Delicious line http://sassafras.typepad.com/sassafras/2010/01/nutritious-and-delicious-with-a-chance-of-scrumptious.html .  I can't wait to see all the new roll-outs from the show next week!

So..Here are my Top 9 favorite Holiday layouts from 2009...
1. "25 Days of Wonderful"
Love the outfit, the facial expressions, and this MM paper with the Pink Paislee paper,brads and MS snowflakes.

2. "Holiday Cookies" I have wanted to document this recipe forever and was really happy with the BG paper with the MS letters and stickers.

3. "Christmas in NYC" Love the gold and the silver with the green lace trim.

4. "Holidaze" Love the photo and the Pink Paislee pink and green photos with the pearls and the MS butterflies.

5. "Celebrate the Season" Love the SC clock stamp with the Webster's Pages paper.

6. "Santa Rocks!!" Love the photos and the vintage-y feel of this We R Memory Keepers paper.

7. " A Kitchy Christmas" Love the ornaments, the JB crepe paper frame, and those AC Thickers.

8. "JOY" Love the sepia photo and the white, pink, silver color pallette..So icy and clean.

9. "Happy Holidays 2009" love the colors with the B&W..I just love the pic!!!


That is all for today! Thanks so much for reading!!
Have a great day!
