Shiny and New!

There’s a shiny and new issue at Paper Issues!  No, I mean… the issue is Shiny and New… Oh, come on!

The issue is called Shiny and New for a new year… we want to see sparkle, shiny, new whatever that means 500to you.  For me, it meant scrapping Lily’s first experience playing in the snow.  It was all new to her but she looked like it was totally no big deal.  And there’s a tiny bit of shiny on this, too, with the drops of silver Color 500Shine.

Oh!  AND this is a fabulous NEW collection from Fancy Pants Designs.  Technically its a valentine collection but I was digging the colors for this and made it work. 

 
We’ve also got a great sketch for this issue… I clearly used the heck out of it!

PaperHaus: Winter 2013

Have you seen the newest issue of PaperHaus magazine yet?  Just when I think these magazines can’t get any more gorgeous the next one comes out and blows me away all over again.  You can see projects from me on pages 39, 75, and 104. 

This week we are celebrating the winter release with our Winter Frolic blog hop event.  Head over to the PaperHaus blog to start today’s small hop or to participate in the rest of the days. 

One of the most common holiday gifts every year is a calendar for the new year.  Those pop up calendar kiosks at the mall are proof of that!  But I prefer to make my own.  This small pocket calendar for 2014 was created from the gorgeous Timbergrove collection from Fancy Pants Designs.  I love that the 4x6 brag pad from this line has all the month pages in it!  Super convenient! I kept the page embellishment to a minimum so it lays flat enough to keep in a purse. 

 

Thanks for joining us today for the Winter Frolic blog hop!  Your next stop is the fabulous Paper Issues blog!
