New Glitz Goodness

Have you seen two of the new lines Glitz will be releasing at CHA next month? Here's a peek...These are both going to be so fun to use. I'm really liking the bright and bold color combo of the Scarlett line. What do you think?

They will also be releasing a third line. Can't wait to see it!

On a side note, anyone going to see the new Twilight movie tonight? I'll be there at midnight tonight! And again tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. I committed to two different groups of friends that I would go with them, so it looks like I get to go twice. Hope the movie is decent and worth seeing twice.

Sunshine and Bike Riding

We have had a lot of sunshine here in Arizona this past week. We try to stay inside as much as possible, but we do also spend a good amount of time in the pool. I guess all of the sun we've had inspired me to make this card.Tonight we took our kids to my parents house so they could get their bikes ready for a neighborhood 4th of July parade coming up this weekend. Their neighborhood has done a 4th of July parade for years and it's a fun family tradition.

While at my parents, my 5 year old asked if I'd take off her training wheels. Of course, I would! We decided to have her ride through the grass and I held onto the bike for about 4 seconds before letting go and she was off. She was so happy and proud of herself. Love that smile!

Another thing that has been keeping me busy lately is reading through many great Scrapbook Circle design team submissions over the past few days. If you are interested in being on the DT, you can get the info here.

Hope your week is off to a great start.

A Few Fun Finds

Today I came across a few cool things online and thought I'd share them with you.

First up is this beautiful camera bag from Jo Totes.It comes in several colors. Love the rose detail and the 1/2 inch padding all around the bag. Not sure that I need a camera bag, but maybe you do!

Love this print from elsiejoy.I've followed Elise's blog for a while and always enjoy seeing what projects she is working on.

Check out these cool prints.Looks like she has several different states. The print info says that a heart comes over the state capitol, but she will place the heart over any city you would like. How fun is that?

And what do you think about these adorable cupcake stands from hello hanna.I think they are gread just as they are, but what about with some jewels or flowers added to them?

That's all for today, but I'll be on the lookout for more fun finds. Have a great day!

Elle's Studio Design Team

A few years ago (2007) I was browsing through etsy and came across some great pirate themed tags for a birthday party I was thinking about for Max. They were from a fun store: Elle's Studio. I ordered the tags and have been using Elle's products ever since.

Since then Elle's Studio has really grown and I have enjoyed using Elle's products.

A few weeks ago I saw that Elle was having a design team call and I decided to send her samples of my work.

Guess what? She asked me to be on her design team! I am so excited about this opportunity. I'm looking forward to showcasing Elle's fun products.

An Afternoon Surprise

Look at what my husband brought home this afternoon...Cupcakes from Sprinkles.

Which one would you have first? The lemon, cinnamon sugar or white cake/chocolate frosting?

Happy Father's Day!

I enjoyed the day celebrating Father's Day yesterday with my wonderful husband. My dad, along with other family, came over to celebrate with a delicious dinner.

Here's a look at the card I made for my dad. I can seem to stop distressing the edges of my paper lately.Everything on this card came from the upcoming July Scrapbook Circle kit.We finished off our evening with this amazing chocolate cake.
My talented baker sister, Michelle, made the cake. So decadent. Amazing.

New Scrapbook Circle Site

I am so excited to share the new Scrapbook Circle site.

LOVE the new, clean design. No more distracting background. I wanted something black/gray where all of the color would come from the kits and layout ideas.
Huge thanks goes to my amazing husband and his company, drawbackwards for making this happen. Special thanks goes out to Ben for all of his hard work.

Stop by the new site and let me know what you think of it.

Hope you are having a great weekend!
