Now...a little about me! Welcome....welcome! I live in sunny Arizona with my husband and three adventurous kiddos. We are super travel obsessed and love adventures big and small. I have been creating and memory keeping ever since I was child and love being able to inspire others to create. I love combining products in unique ways with subtle mixed media and lots of bold accents. One of my scrappy besties says that my style is trendy eclectic with bold accents and since that sounds so exciting to me, I am going with it! My absolute favorite technique is hand-stitching! I can't wait to get to know you and inspire you to work with your kits in new and fun ways. </div>

I am so excited to share a little bit more about me as well as a super fun project using my traveler's notebook inserts and some amazing stickers from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ColumbusRoadPrints?ref=shop_sugg" target="_blank">Columbus Road Prints</a>. The stickers over there are absolutely GORGEOUS!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
I have decided to use this gorgeous insert from Scrapping Wonders as a way to record little moments and big memories as well as love letters to my daughter about my observations of her developing personality and dreams for the future. I have the same type of insert for each of my boys as well.<br />

The Dear Lizzy Documentary collection paired perfectly with my stickers from Columbus Road Prints and perfectly matched the vibe of my photo. After that, it was just a matter of layering up patterned papers and stickers as well as tag and a doily to create some texture. Easy peasy!<br />

I love how quickly spreads come together in my traveler's notebook inserts especially because it gives me even more of a chance to focus on the journaling and things that I want to say to my kids.<br />
<br />
Here is the video talking more about my process and how this all came together...<br />

Beth from Scrapping Wonders is giving away an AMAZING exclusive traveler's notebook insert that cannot be purchased in the store. The only way to get it is to enter to win! Each one of us is leaving you three statements. Two of them are truths and one is a lie. Check out my three statements below and decide which one you think is the lie.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. I went on a vacation to Jamaica by myself for an entire week.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. I have four college degrees and am working on a fifth right now.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. I have a travel tattoo on my ankle and can't wait to get another one.</div>

You will be happy to learn that, indeed, I did remember my password and how to create a blog post. It has been quite awhile but I see a resurgence in my future. I am making a huge effort to bring back some blogging and create a place where you can find all of my different social media links, design teams, and projects. I have LOADS of new projects in the works and you will find out about a lot of in upcoming months right here.<br />
<br />
Without further ado, welcome to the SpiegelMom scraps September Blog Hop. You could have arrived here from Rachel's amazing project! I am playing around today with combining different collections since I have been dying to play with all the things. I decided to combine Pink Fresh Studios Boys Fort along with Escape the Ordinary and throw in a little Ali Edwards Details Story Kit for good measure.<br />
<br />
From the SMS store, I am using three different sequin mixes that match these new collections perfectly. I used: Black Tie Event (black sequins...always for the win) as well as Deck the Halls and the brand new Lisa's Starry Night which has so many amazing shades of blues that I need about fifty more packages!<br />

You should have arrived here from <a href="http://daisiesscraps.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Daisie's blog</a>. I can't wait to get to work with her throughout this year! I am SO excited to be returning to the design team and I adore the new sequin mixes SO much.<br />

I wanted to create a layout for to share a little piece of myself. I am a traveler...I adore to wander, travel, explore, and journey. That piece of me is very much part of my very soul. Another thing about me is that I have a tendency to hoard away my favorite scrappy products for "just the right project." Well....today, I challenged myself to pull out some of my favorite Felicity Jane goodies which paired perfectly with the Crate Paper Oasis collection that I just bought. All of those new goodies coordinated perfectly with my SpiegelMom Scraps goodies.<br />
<br />
<br />
Without further ado, here is my layout and the link to its process video. Please come on over and check out my channel...consider subscribing because there is a BUNCH of fun stuff coming up on International Scrapbooking Day!<br />

Having two boys, this was a super easy challenge for me. I also immediately knew what picture I wanted to use. At my kids' school, there is a huge Mother-Son Event once a year and a photo one of the other moms took for us is what I used for this layout. Here is what I created using mostly scraps!</span></span><br />

I really loved working with the minimalistic sketch this month and I really felt like it made a huge impact. Here is the sketch that we were given to work with. Isn't it fun and different?!?<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvP0_8L75F5T7_ByuTA71pIlX_Zvl75hHJAbflQ11HlUjLuLTPKXS4_tHWspUPbcJ2TUfguXKlEEP6meDhiF4Rg613p8agH49G3s5JQDQ6wj1DtfBpyNs5ARG4JFoKuIP82-d7Pi7G6rY/s1600/April+Stick+It+Down.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvP0_8L75F5T7_ByuTA71pIlX_Zvl75hHJAbflQ11HlUjLuLTPKXS4_tHWspUPbcJ2TUfguXKlEEP6meDhiF4Rg613p8agH49G3s5JQDQ6wj1DtfBpyNs5ARG4JFoKuIP82-d7Pi7G6rY/s320/April+Stick+It+Down.png" width="318" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided that this sketch would just be too perfect to highlight a major even in my son's life this spring. He is playing kid pitch baseball for the first time and is one of the youngest players on the team but has been chosen as part of the pitching rotation. He even won first place in his age group at a local pitching competition this spring!<br />
<br />
This particular photo was his very first night pitching in a game and you could see that he was in heaven. He loves baseball and being anywhere on the field but his heart lives on the pitcher's mound.<br />

<br />
As you can see, I stayed pretty true to the sketch and used some torn out notebook paper along with some stamping to create some interest around my photo. Puffy baseball stickers and a bold title were all it took to create a unique and impactful look. I can't wait to see what you create with this month's sketch.

I hope you enjoyed<a href="http://www.scrapbookpagesandcupcakes.com/blog/" target="_blank"> Hannah's</a> project as much as I loved it this month! I almost had a huge April Fool's joke to play on everyone with no layout today. LOL! I am in the middle of moving and half of my room is at the old house and half is at the new house so that made for a little bit of an extra challenge but I'm happy with the project and I used up some old stash in the process.<br />
<br />
Without further ado...I went with a grid layout this week. I play along with several friends on a You Tube collaboration and this week's challenge was 4-5 photos on a grid. Although I didn't quite make the video happen (which box is the tripod in again?!) I did create this fun layout with the challenge theme....<br />

<br />
As you can see, I played with the Felties from the SpiegelMom Scraps store a lot for this project. The cloud felties are by far my favorite but I just loved the pop of color and contrast that I got using the red heart felties as well.<br />
<br />
Another tip....when you don't have a sequin mix that works perfectly, reach into your stash and create one! The sequin mixes are perfect to grab parts from and combine together to create something new. Here are the four different mixes that I pulled from on this layout...<br />

<br />
Welcome to March! This month, we are teamed up with Creative Embellishments and I am having such a blast combining products from these two amazing small businesses. You are gonna love all of the inspiration heading your way this month! You should have arrived here from <a href="https://heifer21.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Heather's blog</a> and I just know you loved her project as much as I did.<br />
<br />
For this project, I worked with the new Paige Evan's Oh My Heart Collection and created a fun, bright, and colorful camping page. If you are new to my work, you will quickly see that I LOVE hand stitching on my layouts and this one has a whole lot of it.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGgyDQ6NT-UX8_9Hj0GWTSJMOJ9Gj-yXOnxuVc_T5RLFW4wNfVUnto_uZZm3kXs9ILNHv30GDXwwTffMS3EOOzBgITxtxk_iTxcVQ4DbkMGU2rXr2AMJ21i_P0vTZi4JqyMvpbsmBWs8Y/s1600/IMG_1173.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="397" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGgyDQ6NT-UX8_9Hj0GWTSJMOJ9Gj-yXOnxuVc_T5RLFW4wNfVUnto_uZZm3kXs9ILNHv30GDXwwTffMS3EOOzBgITxtxk_iTxcVQ4DbkMGU2rXr2AMJ21i_P0vTZi4JqyMvpbsmBWs8Y/s400/IMG_1173.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
The compasses from Creative Embellishments were just the perfect accents for my layout idea! From the SpiegelMom Scraps store, I included:<br />
--Cloudy Days Felties (my favorite felties!)<br />
--Corky Cumulus (the amazing new super thin cork clouds)<br />
--Star Light Star Bright (large silver stars)<br />
--Stargazer (the medium sized shimmery stars)<br />
--Wedding Bells (the tiny stars)<br />
<br />
Here are a few close-ups and I would also love it if you would check out the process video and subscribe to my channel!<br />

Today is a busy day on my blog as I have a few different design team projects going on today. Make sure to check my channel for a few different process videos that will be released today!<br />
<br />
This month, the theme for Scrap the Boys is to care a layout or project with the theme of DIRT. Having two boys, this was a super easy challenge for me. I also immediately knew what picture I wanted to use. This photo is one of my youngest son on a big camping trip that we took a couple of summers ago. His face looked at least this dirty for the majority of our time in the woods and he couldn't have been happier. Between playing in the dirt, building forts, fishing, and boating, he was one happy will guy.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
For this layout, I combined elements from several different collections (both new and old) in order to create a unique look. I even used a few collections that are really intended as feminine collections. I also created a coordinating process video to go with this layout and you can view that below or on my You Channel by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFM_xDMIxCTao7kVPouLzeA" target="_blank">clicking here</a>.<br />

It is time for another Stick It Down Sketch Challenge and the sketch for February is a really fun one. There are so many different options of what you could create with this layout. The design team also did an awesome job of creating a wide variety of projects so make sure you stop by and check out all of the layouts.<br />
<br />
The sketch for February looks like:<br />
<br />

<br />
I decided to work with hand stitching for this layout so I just traced and stitched circles of lots of different colors in the background for the main design element. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2aZiosnuvnpN03kUpSWEZQKUnoPaxVvwK1ieVl_0JxlVdBlsKBR2KN1vyp2lRFoStA9pPWUlZaZcob-IWJ3QSFAEE-DzvIeMy2XoRkTsbdSQgCTgGT7g2ufONnQ2PN9d4myl6aKvMTQk/s1600/Stick+It+Down+February.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2aZiosnuvnpN03kUpSWEZQKUnoPaxVvwK1ieVl_0JxlVdBlsKBR2KN1vyp2lRFoStA9pPWUlZaZcob-IWJ3QSFAEE-DzvIeMy2XoRkTsbdSQgCTgGT7g2ufONnQ2PN9d4myl6aKvMTQk/s320/Stick+It+Down+February.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
Playing with the Shimelle Go Now Go collection and layering up all sorts of 6x6 patterned papers and pieces of ephemera completed the look. I kept my embellishments subtle to really highlight the photo and stitching details. Adding the little cork hearts and the tiny navy sticker hearts from Studio Calico tied everything together and added a little fun. I hope that you enjoy seeing what I created. Make sure to stop by Stick It Down and check out the rest of the projects. Make sure to leave us a link to a project you create with this month's sketch. I can't wait to see your work!

January was not a particularly kind month in my world so I am excited for a new beginning and all of the possibility that February holds!<br />
<br />
As a great start, today is the <a href="https://spiegelmom-scraps.myshopify.com/collections" target="_blank">SpiegelMom Scraps</a> blog hop! We are collaborating with <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/kjkareen" target="_blank">Accent Scrapbooking</a> this month which is an amazing flair badge company. We all decided to design with a common sketch and allow our own unique styles to come thru. I know that you had to have just loved Hannah's project!<br />
<br />
Here is the sketch that we worked with for this hop....<br />

<br />
I love the details and loads of layers! I decided to pull out some leftovers from the Paige Evans Fancy Free collection for my layout today. I started with a beautiful piece of patterned paper that was all florals and decided to fussy cut and hand stitch the flowers and leaves. This was a super fun look to create and worked perfectly for integrating the flair badges and sequins throughout. Here are a few close-ups of my project as well as the accompanying process video. <br />

Good Morning! I am super excited to be starting work with the <a href="http://scraptheboys.blogspot.com/">Scrap the Boys</a> Design Team this month. I have loved watching and seeing all of their challenges over the past year and I am SO excited to be playing along now. This month, the challenge is to create a layout about something NEW. There are so many different ways to interpret this challenge which is part of the fun. I thought about creating something about new Christmas gifts or new goals for the year. I also could have created a layout about a new school year, playing a new sport, or new adventures whether big or small. I decided to create a layout about a small part of our travel adventures that we look forward to as a family...trying new restaurants and foods in new locations. You can see the layout I created below as well as watch the process video for more detailed information and my thought process.<br />

I used two different boy product lines that I have been enjoying working with lately. One is from Crate Paper called Cool Kid and the other is from Bella Blvd. called Alex. Both collections coordinate really well together and allowed me to add in little elements from my older product stash which always makes me happy!<br />

Welcome to another challenge from the <a href="https://useyourstuff.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Use Your Stuff challenge blog</a>. This week, we have been challenged to create a layout with some sort of animal theme. Whether you choose to scrap animal pictures, use cute animal ephemera, or include some kind of animal print is up to you! I do have a process video for this layout as well so make sure to stop by <a href="https://youtu.be/p3e2PEaW4-I" target="_blank">my channel</a> and check that out too!!<br />
<br />
I chose to work with this adorable photo of my youngest son who surprised me in the store one day with this tiger hat and mitts. He came up behind me and yelled "RRAAAWWWWRRRR" and it was just the cutest darn thing you have ever seen!<br />
<br />
The minute that I saw this challenge, I knew this photo and story would be perfect! The Crate Paper Cool Kid collection still remains one of my favorites for documenting the stories of my boys and I am running low on goodies from it as I have created so many layouts with it already.<br />

<br />
For this layout, I included a black and white background from Dear Lizzy's Saturday collection and added some hand stitching to make it my own and add some extra dimension. I then added a lot of different details from the sticker sheet, 6x6 patterned paper pad, and some puffy stickers. I also used up a few old Studio Calico chipboard stars that have been in my stash forever. Anytime I get to use old things from my stash, I consider it a win win!!<br />

<br />
Welcome back to another week of <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">CRAFT challenges</a>. This week, we have been challenged to create a love or Valentine's Day themed project. As usual, I like to create cards that are quick and easy but still show an interesting look.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Kyn5N9a47WjaI9hCboafQEPQ4FKrD-yYmuuBI6oXUs-Fg5-gG0DLilBK3o03etbRYeIUVkHb16n5-fheWSm77ECq2myx1KaB_ubjSh3rO2-52QCiYSnzVOmoeaig27WtAYTZRLZxPsE/s1600/IMG_0296.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Kyn5N9a47WjaI9hCboafQEPQ4FKrD-yYmuuBI6oXUs-Fg5-gG0DLilBK3o03etbRYeIUVkHb16n5-fheWSm77ECq2myx1KaB_ubjSh3rO2-52QCiYSnzVOmoeaig27WtAYTZRLZxPsE/s320/IMG_0296.jpg" width="240" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3TVngn_F0H8Hj7DxYAIHUNKsfWMXabJV2WrRh5f8-4LuXhNjxNG8WJgG9Tn5STMWEkIrgtE-_IbpAQITvBD-kbn3qeqb_zRG3dA1Td_7sZS82e19REgIlf3QY3I_2dur74UCh360fQ1g/s1600/IMG_0297.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3TVngn_F0H8Hj7DxYAIHUNKsfWMXabJV2WrRh5f8-4LuXhNjxNG8WJgG9Tn5STMWEkIrgtE-_IbpAQITvBD-kbn3qeqb_zRG3dA1Td_7sZS82e19REgIlf3QY3I_2dur74UCh360fQ1g/s320/IMG_0297.jpg" width="240" /></a><br />
<br />
I took a plain white cardstock base and added some dimensional texture paste (Heidi Swapp Teal) thru a heart stencil to create the background. I also added a few polka dots with red Stickles to the background. I then layers two different doilies (one gold and one white). On top of this, I placed a glassine bag and then layered three different sized Valentine's tags to the card. I punched a few gold glitter hearts to add some additional sparkle and finished the tags with some black baker's twine. I love that little hedgehog tag on the front so I wanted that to be center stage. I included both photos so that you could see the tiny tag that is inserted into the glassine bag.<br />

<br />
It's time for another<a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"> CRAFT challenge </a>and this week, we are revisiting Christmas. I grabbed some leftover supplies from my Christmas stash before I put it all away and created this fun shaker card. I grabbed a Christmas tag and backed it with two different patterned papers. I then pulled out a bunch of snowflakes from the coordinating ephemera pack. I added some sequins from SpiegelMom Scraps to the 4x6 packet and sealed it up easily on the back. Those 4x6 fuse pockets are perfect for creating quick and easy shaker pockets.<br />

Welcome to another month of <a href="http://stickitdown.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Stick It Down sketches</a>. This month I am in LOVE with the sketch. There is enough simplicity to allow for lots of interpretation differences. If you haven't seen all of the different takes by the design team, you absolutely must check them out. I was BLOWN AWAY!! Here is the lovely sketch this month....<br />

<br />
Welcome back to another week of CRAFT challenges. This week, we are being challenged to create a project with either a box or a bag. I decided to show a recent project that I have been working on to create candy goodie bags for Valentine's Day.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgDn-YmJOdFwS3OvWfRerlYJ4mPFn9s9iA3onjKJLUTIxeqmT_se1r-UAU3O6A5N8hLqeJHJODV_SUgdqH6SET2hLKPxBfAzHg3cBMBbCnHm8S4yf40v80r2GP1Fdo8VMI4Bi1d7cLHQ/s1600/PicTapGo-Image-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgDn-YmJOdFwS3OvWfRerlYJ4mPFn9s9iA3onjKJLUTIxeqmT_se1r-UAU3O6A5N8hLqeJHJODV_SUgdqH6SET2hLKPxBfAzHg3cBMBbCnHm8S4yf40v80r2GP1Fdo8VMI4Bi1d7cLHQ/s400/PicTapGo-Image-2.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
To create this look, I took a glassine bag and filled it with small pieces of individually wrapped candy. I then took a cut file that I had previously used and decreased it in size to make it the right size for the project. I backed each section of the cut file with a different patterned paper. I then took a 4 inch doily and colored it with mists in matching colors. Add a few thicker stickers to the bottom of the bag. Super easy! Last step....layer it all together and clip it with a glittered clothespin.<br />
<br />
I hope that you will visit us over at CRAFT and check out the creations from the rest of the design team as well as to share a project that you create for this challenge.

<span class="_4yxo" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="_4yxo" style="font-family: inherit;">For this project, I used a lot of fun goodies from the Crate Paper Snow and Cocoa collection. The background papers are a combination of products from different collections including: Felicity Jane basics, Fancy Pants Merry and Bright, Crate Paper Snow and Cocoa, and the Hip Kit Club. All of the flair on the layout came from Cuts2Luv and from the SpiegelMom Scraps store I used the Wedding Bells sequin mix as well as the eight inch lace doilies.

For this week, we were challenged to use a recipe to create our project. The recipe includes: one image, two papers, and three flowers. As you can see, I added a couple of extra flowers to this design but I just love how it turned it.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
As always, I kept with my theme of quick and easy cards. The main oval card is from a Ruby Violet journaling notecard set. I added a few diecut flowers and leaves and put dimensional adhesive behidn the smaller ones to make them pop off the card. I then pulled out my most favorite alphabet stamps from Crafty Jen Schow for Felicity Jane and used those to stamp the "hello spring" title. I also grabbed a sediment stamp and added that to the top. I chose a couple of patterned paper pieces to mount the entire card front on and I was done. Quick, easy, and super cute!<br />
<br />
I hope that you will join us this week and create your own project with our recipe. Do stop by and check out the creations from the rest of the design team.

<br />
One year ago today I was sitting here typing a post about getting myself out there. Starting to share creatively, starting a blog, beginning a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFM_xDMIxCTao7kVPouLzeA" target="_blank">You Tube channel</a>, and working for design teams. In 2016, I did those things. Not all well but I can honestly look back and say...wow...I jumped and started to get my feet wet.<br />
<br />
Did everything work perfectly? nope.<br />
Did I accomplish everything that I wanted to? nope.<br />
Did I experience some successes? YES!<br />
Did I grow and change? Absolutely!<br />
<br />
This past year has been one of immense change. I moved into a new house, grew in my career goals, started a doctoral program, and worked to build the beginning foundation of a creative presence. I grew my Instagram account (although not as much as I would have liked). I grew my You Tube channel in the last nine months and learned a TON along the way there. I worked on several different design teams and collaborated with lots of amazingly talented crafters. Those were definite successes! I made some great friends out there in the world and that has been the most rewarding and amazing part.<br />
<br />
So now....onward and upward! 2017....I am SO excited to start a new year. I have some pretty lofty goals and aspirations. I am still plugging away on my life goals and career goals. I have finished the first course of my doctoral program and moved right into the second. I am going to play along with the One Little Word community this year and my word (I think) is going to be SEEK. I want to SEEK knowledge...SEEK adventures...SEEK clarity...SEEK wisdom...SEEK opportunities...SEEK balance. It is going to be SO exciting!!!<br />
<br />
In my crafty life....I have some HUGE aspirations. I can't wait to start some new collaborations and explore some new design team opportunities. I want to keep working to figure out this Instagram follower business (seriously weird stuff...but come follow my feed if you don't already :) @redefinedkreative. I can't wait to continue to grow my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFM_xDMIxCTao7kVPouLzeA" target="_blank">You Tube channel</a> because that is where I am loving my social media presence and community the most. I can't wait to meet more people, explore more opportunities, and grow my crafty contributions even more. I am loving every step of this adventure and can't wait to see what 2017 brings. I hope you will stick around, follow me on Instagram, interact and converse with me in Facebook groups, and check out my You Tube channel.<br />
<br />
Here's to another year of great adventures!!<br />
Bring it on, 2017!!<br />

This month's sketch was a little bit more challenging for me but I ended up having a lot of fun creating with it. The sketch for the single page design team this month was focused on a large initial letter with very little embellishing given. You can see the sketch below...<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided that I wanted to focus on a Christmas themed layout for this particular design and I had a photo from a past trip on the Polar Express that I thought would be perfect. I used a font on my computer to create a fancy letter "S" to stand for Santa and made my title (Santa's Magic) part of the large letter title. I decided to cut that letter out of red velvet paper to mimic Santa's suit and then stitched with some gold thread to add some detail. I cut the arrow out the same way and stitched there as well. I added a few layers of patterned paper and tissue paper with some Tim Holtz Candied Apple distress ink as well as some gold accents and red sequins to finish the look. The mirror embellishments are from Pink Fresh Studios and the sequins are from SpiegelMom Scraps. </div>

<br /></div>
<div>
December is such a fun month of winter memories, holiday celebrations, and excitement. In the shop this month, there are SO many amazing new sequin mixes and some great cut files. You should have arrived here after checking out <a href="http://www.scrapbookpagesandcupcakes.com/blog/" target="_blank">Hannah's</a> amazing project! I decided to stay away from the traditional Christmas colors and theme today and instead tell a different kind of story.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>One year for Christmas, my youngest son begged and pleaded for a drum set. It was the only thing he asked Santa for and talked about it for months. That drum set caused the biggest smiles that filled his whole face! He was SO proud of his new musical "skills" and drove everyone crazy with his masterful songs...LOL! That story deserved a special space in his scrapbook! There are a series of photos on the coordinating page to this one that tell the story in detail and show his reaction when opening the gift and helping his dad put it all together. </i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
The cut files for December in the SpiegelMom Scraps store were a great starting point for this story. I used them as a stitching template to create the different musical notes. Then, I combined it with some star cut-outs and two different new sequin mixes in order to create the background elements on this page. Everything paired perfect with the Crate Paper Cool Kid collection. SUPER FUN! </div>

<span style="font-family: arial, tahoma, helvetica, freesans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">Happy Sunday! I am so excited to be participating again this month in the For the Love of Homemade Kits Series with Hannah Lemieux, Crafty Meggy, Sara Scraps and Felicia Young over on You Tube for another round of creating. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, this series uses a recipe of items to create a kit from our stash that is based around an inspiration piece. Then, each of us spends four weeks creating layouts and process videos from the ingredients in our kits. The idea is to start digging in our stash and use a combination of both new and old products to create some amazing layouts. Each week, you will be able to see a process video and layout from each of us on our You Tube channels using our individual kits. YAY! </span><span style="color: #4d469c; font-family: arial, tahoma, helvetica, freesans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><a href="https://youtu.be/f_MZ5zLXxss" target="_blank">Click here to check out my kit share</a></span><span style="font-family: arial, tahoma, helvetica, freesans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><span style="color: #4d469c;"><a href="https://youtu.be/f_MZ5zLXxss" target="_blank"> for week one</a></span><a href="https://youtu.be/P1jnU7L_r9g" style="color: #4d469c; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a>of the For the Love of Homemade Kits Series: November.

<br />As you can see, I followed the recipe pretty closely this month but I included a few extra embellishments. I tend to also include a partially used 6x6 paper pad rather than just a few sheets as I enjoy creating lots of layers with different patterns. I am also giving myself the freedom and permission to add some mixed media elements like additional mists and texture paste if needed in order to complete the looks or use the elements that I chose. I find that I need to include enough variety so that I don't get sick of my kit but also limit myself enough that I am productive and focused. It's a balance, right?! </div>

Welcome back to another month of sketches at <a href="http://stickitdown.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Stick It Down</a>. This month we are playing with a really fun sketch to use when you have LOADS of pictures, especially those pictures that you have taken at a distance. Here is the sketch that we are using this month...<br />

When I started thinking about what to create with this sketch, I remembered a recent trip that we had taken to a new aquarium that was just built in our hometown. I had taken a lot of pictures of sharks, fish, and all kinds of sea life and I thought that this layout would be perfect to showcase those photos.</div>

I decided to expand the center portion of this layout out and increase the size of the title to a really bold font that would show the name of the new aquarium. I then printed all of my photos at home using a template from the Project Life app where I put six 2x2 photos onto one 4x6 photo grid and then printed. Super simple and one of my favorite resizing tools! </div>
