To Do Lists and a Card

I'm feeling pretty organized today. A couple of days ago I added the TeuxDeux (To Do) app to my phone and I've been checking things off my list ever since. I am so much more productive when I write something down that I want to do. Just looking at it on a list makes me want to do it. Anyone else a big list maker?

After this post, I'll get to cross this blog post off of my list. Love that.

Today I wanted to share a birthday card I just put together with the September Scrapbook Circle Kit. The Crate Restoration line is amazing to work with.


The yellow flowers in this kit were made by one of the talented SBC DT girls, Tessa. She has a great etsy shop where she sells the flowers and a lot of other great things. Thanks for the beautiful flowers, Tessa!

Okay, time to see what is next on my list.

Happiness is When...

...We are with our Cousins.

Last month we we able to spend time with my sister's family while they were visiting Arizona from North Carolina. They are my kids' only cousins, so we love to get together with them.

While we were altogether we did a fun photo shoot with a photographer, Andrea. She captured this fun photo of the cousins and I knew I wanted to use it on a layout.
I used the Scrapbook Circle September kit for this layout. Product from Crate, Sassafras, Cosmo Cricket and Elle's Studio are on this page.Really loving the doilies paper from Crate. Here I cut out some of the doilies and spread them around the paper.

Hope to have more creative time with this kit soon!

Our Family

I had a little bit of creative time last week and made time to play with the September Scrapbook Circle kit. This could be one of my favorite kits ever! Of course, I love all of the kits, but there is just something about this kit that makes me happy.

I've had a 7 Gypsies painter's tray sitting about for a while just waiting for the right project to come along. Here's a look at what I came up with.The design is pretty simple because I really wanted to keep the focus on the photos. I loved the photos Andrea took of our family last month and I was excited to use them on this project. In addition to the Sept. kit, I also used some of these alphas. Really loving mini alphas right now!Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful week.
