So very merry

Hey everyone, I have a new LO for Feed Your Craft today.  I really wanted to do a Christmas LO with all the pretty Christmas flair I had.  This photo is from a few years back when my daughter played the angel at the living nativity at the old age home.  I used the Pink Paislee Yuletide collection and a some cut files from The Cut Shoppe.



And a few close ups.  





I used flair from a few different sets on this LO including the tis' the season, dear santa, and the star set.

Christmas story

Hey everyone, we have a new Product Spotlight at Paper Issues today using the Wish Season Collection from Fancy Pants.

I love it when a collection has a lot of coordinating embellishments and this collection doesn't disappoint.  There is so much to choose from!

I created this LO of my daughter helping me with our Christmas baking.  She is so much fun!



Here are a few close ups!



I also used a free cut file from the PI store!

Hot rod radio flyer

Hey everyone, today I have a new LO for Feed Your Craft!

My step father built this cool radio flyer car for my son.  It has a real gas engine!  My son is having so much fun with this thing!

As you've probably seen from my other DT LO's, I like to mix and match my flair buttons.  I rarely use buttons from the same set.  It's much more fun to dig through my flair stash to find the "perfect" one for my LO!


Here are some close up of the flair buttons! 



This one is my favorite!!

Sibling love!

Hey everyone, I have a new LO for Feed Your Craft today.  My kids like most siblings, don't always get along well.  They fight and argue over all kinds of little thing but I know that deep down they really do love each other.  I snapped this photo of them while we were waiting for a show to start at a festival.  I just love the way my son is looking at my daughter.  Yes the do love each other!



  
I used flair from a few different sets on this LO including the ampersand, camera and the hello fall sets.

Whatever

Hey everyone, I have a new LO for Feed Your Craft today.  I had a lot of fun with this LO.  My daughter is always such a good sport for letting take fun photos of her.  We gave her some Beats headphones last year and she's always wearing them.  She looks so cute with her "hip-hop" clothing style!  I used the Dear Lizzy Documentary collection and a fun cut file from The Cut Shoppe.



And a few close ups.  




I used flair from a few different sets on this LO including the music, you're a star and currently sets.

Love this

Hey everyone, we've been having so much fun this weekend at the Paper Issues online crop.  The whole crop is happening on Facebook.  Make sure to join the Paper Issues friends & fan group to see all the challenges!

My challenge is to use 10 circles, squares, or triangles on a project.  It has to be 10 of the same shape. I used the gorgeous Cedar Lane collection from Pink Paislee on my LO.

In it to win it!

Hey everyone, have you played along with the new issue at Paper Issues?  Check it out!

FAN-atics: sports (favorite team or player), TV shows (favorite series or actor), comfort food/recipes, guilty pleasures, Halloween, use October/November printables

As soon as I say this I knew I had to make a sports LO.  Both my kids play hockey so as you can imagine, hockey is a pretty big deal in this house.  I snapped this photo of my son's helmet after his team won a tournament last year.  I love that you can see the players all lined up in the background waiting to get their medals. 


My love affair with Simple Stories continues with this So Rad collection.  I might have to get some more now that I see how well it matches with the team hockey jerseys!

The Paper Issues store is constantly being updated with new products.  Make sure to check often so you don't miss out!

October is my favorite color

Hey everyone, today I have another LO for Feed Your Craft.  I am having so much fun with these mini flair buttons.  Yes they are mini!!  Just a little smaller than the average flair!  Too stinking cute!!

I don't very often use a dark background for my LO's but this paper was too beautiful to cut into and matched perfectly with my photo!!



Here are a few close ups of the flair!



I used the whole package of the autumn leaves flair set!

Product Spotlight Cedar Lane

We have a new Product Spotlight at Paper Issues today using Pink Paislee Cedar Lane.  This collection...I love it so much I almost don't know what to say about it.  It's like it was created just for me!  Every bit of it is sooo me!  The colors, the patterns, the embellishments...

I decided to keep my LO pretty simple because I wanted the focus to be on the photos and those woodgrain frames.



I can't wait to play with this collection again!!

There is still some of it left in the Paper Issues store.  Hurry because it will be sold out soon!
