New from Crossbone Cuts - I Heart Valentine's Day

Crossbone Cuts has a new, super cute Valentine's Day kit over at ScrapMatters! I don't exactly have a lot of Valentine's photos, but all the purples and grays in here are perfect for a big dorm event we just had last week.

There's also a set of bonus alphas.

And a blog freebie!

Here's a layout I made using this kit.

February Mix-a-Kit from Crossbone Cuts

Yikes! I haven't posted in forever. In the crazy months since I've posted (in the last two weeks along have been a Mousescrappers Speed Scrap and Scrap Orchard's Scrapper Bowl), Crossbone Cuts is back at ScrapMatters! Which means, of course, Mix-a-Kit. These hearts and papers are super cute, and work just fine in a non-Valentine's layout.

Heart Talk 

February Hearts & Dots

Here's a page I made using these elements. I don't really talk much about my (not-)puppy Peyton, as every time I go to scrap about him he does something delightful like mark on my rug or gnaw on my hand a little bit. Well, actually, he had a few unpleasant teeth taken out and has been much happier and friendlier. He's also a runner - once he takes off, he's impossible to catch.

DSD New Releases from Crossbone Cuts

So...many...products! It's DSD weekend, so naturally I've cleared my schedule (except for that dratted football game) to partake in as many events as possible. One such event is, of course, shopping the sales and new goodies/grab bags.  Crossbone Cuts has a whopping *THREE* new grab bags in ScrapMatters today! First up is a collab with WM[squared], perfect for wintry pictures. All of the grab bags have a full reveal in the shop for the more impatient among us :)

Next us is a template grab bag, also a collab with WM[squared].

Tanya also has a PU grab bag, filled with various element types.

I used both these grab bags in making this next double pager:

That's all for now - I'm off to get some scrapping done!

Recent Pages...Pre- and Post-Disney

Although I brought my computer to Florida, I really only had time to empty the memory card every night and back up my pictures. It's hard, because while I now have a ton of fresh pictures to scrap (I made the list - between the Halloween parties and the 108 characters (!!!), the preliminary page count is 136), I still haven't finished my Italy book or my May Disney trip.  Alas, such woe - too many things to scrap :D

Another Italy page - the progress on this is slower than I would have hoped. It'll get done, though - I have like  a week and a half in Jackson at Christmas time where I can get a ton of scrapping done (I don't do winter sports, so much inside time).

I've also been working a bit on this trip. Perhaps ill-advised, but so many pictures and new things to scrap! Have a mentioned I've been character stalking? 108 CHARACTERS. New ones. Does anyone have a good kit for the 7 Dwarves, Tarzan and Jane, the Step Family, Prince Phillip, Duffy, Playhouse Disney characters, Phineas and Ferb? Or Sugar Ray. There was a Sugar Ray concert that we stumbled upon - the lead singer is also a cowbell player, so cowbell elements would be super cool.

Did I mention we met six princes, Tarzan, Terrence/Peter Pan (let's be honest, same nose and frantic energy) and the Mad Hatter? SO MANY MALE FACE CHARACTERS. Also, they were approximately ten times more fun than the princesses. Actually, all the male characters are a lot more fun when you travel without your parents. Chip checked my hand for a wedding ring; Max walked off with us, got chastised by Goofy, who then took us for himself; King Louie was a total player; Duffy also tried to remove us from the Halloween party; and Handy Manny (!) tried to take us off as his dinner dates. I kind of wanted to see the looks on the preschoolers' faces for that one.  

Scrappily Me CT!

It's been a while since I updated (a trip to Disney will do that), but I have news in the meantime.  I'm now a member of Scrappily Me's CT. Patty's shop will be opening in January at Berry Sweet Scraps. I'm so looking forward to this - everyone else on the team is so sweet!
