Finally gave Sweet Day a break! Here's what I did. This pattern is from the Recollections re-print of Stella and Rose by My Mind's Eye. It's called "Mosaic Memories" at Michael's and it's printed on thinner paper, not cardstock. I love these papers! I used the Dear Lizzy sticker book and sheet of polaroid cut outs.the ticket on the side, tucked behind the photo has the journaling and was a Joann's find ;) 

So here are all the Sweet Day LO's I've done so far. Still have enough of the kit left  for a few more! But I took a break because I really wanted to work with this one particular picture and I think it looks great on a piece of patterned paper that is NOT from sweet day...Let me go get it and post that one up too. I love these. I really recommend the sweet day kit. I've used pieces of all the parts in the kit. and I have plans for the rest! : D

Still loving Sweet Day by Echo Park and waiting desperately for them to release Everyday Eclectic.  Hope I love it just as much!  I keep coming back to the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan embellishments like this cute little jar and that sticker on top and even the little heart stamp. I only have 3 complete sheets left, and that's only cause I bought doubles of some! What collections have you been enjoying?

This is for Glitter Girl's Sticker challenge. I love her videos . They are stash busters ;)  I used Sweet Day by Echo Park. I liked a couple papers, so I got them and I loved them so much I ended up buying the whole kit! I'm so glad I did. this is my favorite new collection. Hope you check out Shimelle's  (Glitter Girl) videos. I'm even considering taking some of her classes!

Papers & embellies- Bella Blvd.  Stamp- Crafter's Companion  Colored with Prismacolors I love how challenges inspire me to  1- Use my stash and  2- Get things done!  Ok...so maybe housework doesn't get done, but cards and LO's are getting done!  lol  That counts right?!  The color inspiration came from Crafter's Companion June Sunshine/Yellow Challenge .  I love this CC stamp. I have 2 sisters and a  some great friends that totally deserve a cute handmade card ;)  I'm entering it in this month's CC challenge .

Still catching up on scrapping my friend's b-day road trip last year. I used the back of yesterday's LO to create this page. I didn't want to waste the pretty paper behind it. and since they are part of the same story, they will be perfect. I used Shimelle' s starting point as the starting point (obviously, lol) for this LO. It's a weekly challenge I just found recently. You can find it here .   This is the page behind this LO:  Have a great day!

First LO of my friend's b-day get-away to Vegas last year.  It took me a while but I got to it! LOL. Papers are lost and found 2 and one of the pages from the October afternoon  Here and Now from the 9to5 collection. Love that collection :)  The title is done with Mini Market letters also from October afternoon. The other side of the background paper is so pretty, I think I'm gonna do a double sided LO.  Can't go wasting pretty paper, right? :)  I got all my supplies for this page at My Scraps & More   It has become my favorite place to shop online!

Hey! I've been watching ' The Adventures of Glitter Girl ' on the  Two Peas in a Bucket  website. She's so inspiring! I just love watching her work and I've picked up a lot of tips from her. This LO is totally inspired by her style:   Hope you get a chance to check out the videos :)

First challenge for My Scraps Got Talent II. Hosted by Myscrapsandmore  (my favorite place to shop).  I really liked that bird paper and I wanted it to show!  Here's the sketch I worked with: and this Bingo board:
