Clique Kits Pep Rally|Punxsutawney

Well hello there everyone!  I am happy to see your virtual faces!  You should have arrived here from Sandy's blog.  I have two layouts to share with you today.  I LOVED this kit.  One of the cutest and most fun kits I've ever received from any kit club.  Clique Kits hit it out of the park with this kit, Punxsutawney.  Here are my layouts.  The first layout is based off of Kat's sketch.

The next layout I made, I used the leftover scraps from the page above.  I also used the cut files for the kit.  I love the heart cut file.  It's one of my favorites.  I used a few papers from the Clique Kits Store as well.  I hoped to have a video for you but the audio isn't coming out right :(  So maybe in a day or two I'll get that figured out.

Here is a close up of the layout.

I hope you enjoyed the layouts.  You are now off to Marcia's blog.  

Just in case you get lost, here's the entire blog list:

Introducing a new series....Inside My Life

Hello there everyone.  I've been thinking a lot about a few series I can write on here.  One of course is my Project Life posts, but I wanted to try something new in addition to that.  As some of you know, I've been having a big struggle with photography.  I've taken pictures since I was small child.  My dad bought me my first camera when I was 8 years old.  However, after a few years of taking pictures professionally and having to spend time editing them, I've sort of lost my love for it.  As I write this post, I haven't touched my camera since Christmas.

So anyhow, I came up with a new series "Inside My Life."  The purpose of this series is to help me get my photography mojo back, and to have a little fun.  I really want to pick up the camera again and love it.  Not feel like it's a chore and something that has to be done.  So these posts will be photo heavy.  Some of the photos will be taken with my "real camera" and some with Mariphone (gotta love that girl).  I will also try and incorporate these photos into Project Life or into traditional scrapbook layouts.  So, I hope you are ready for some fun.  I will be posting soon with a new "episode" in this series.

And Fin...

Just a short little post to celebrate the end of my Professional Photography adventure.  It wasn't a decision that was made lightly, but it's done.  Gear has been taken off, photos have all been edited, SD cards have all been erased.  And here she sits waiting for me to get the itch in my fingers again.

It's a little bittersweet.

Project Life Week 2

Hey there everyone.  I wanted to share my Week 2 layout with you today.  It is the other half of my two page spread.  So Week 1 and Week 2 are only one page each.  Things will change for Week 3 because I had so many photos that I actually had to be choosy.  Ha.

Since this is the other side of Week 1, I kept the them the same so both pages would match in the album.  I used a few scraps from Studio Calico and from the Clique Kits January Kit, Tailor Made.  I used so much of my January Clique Kits kit that I have only scraps left.  So there you have it.  There's week 2.  I'll be back next week with Week 3!
