Layout Challenge Week #31
The Riverwalk in Lights! My girls got to go down to the San Antonio Riverwalk at Christmas when it was covered in lights! Grandma and Grandpa took them down to see the symphony! I used the Roxie papers, sparkles, hemp and the Art Philosopy Cricut on this layout! The lights at the bottom of the page were cut with the cricut and I popped them up with dimensional tape and attached them to hemp to look like they are on a string!
Do you know what a zip strip is? I used them as borders in this layout! The zip strip is about a 1/2 inch wide strip that you cut off the paper. On one side it is decorative and intended to be used as embellishment for your projects and on the side has the name of the paper, the colors used and and the product number. These can be very useful!
I would love to see what you have been up to!

Layout Challenge Week #30
Super Fun birthday! This is the last of the Superhero Birthday layouts! I have used the Superhero Badge buttons on the title! The "super" theme has prevailed with the whole birthday! It has been the most fun group of layouts to make! I didn't really have to work for these layouts and I really enjoyed making them!
Have you had fun making anything recently?

Studio J Saturday
Studio J is going through some BIG changes! Memberships are going away and the price per 2 page layouts dropping from $12.99 to $6.95! Jpegs are free with the layout and only $2.95 without the layout. All content that used to be members only is now available to everyone! Also there are new express collections that you literally only have to upload your pictures, drag and drop them into the layout and add your titles!
I know they look similar with the same pictures but they are actually similar for a reason. I do 8 calendars for Christmas presents every year and I am trying something new this year by doing the picture part on Studio J. So each page is the top of the calendar, two calendars from one 2 page layout!
This paper pack is More to Adore which has been retired for a while! One of my favorite perks of Studio J is having the huge selection of papers!!
More calendar pages are coming! Look for them next Saturday!

Convention Artwork
I was at the CTMH convention last week and they have a room with artwork in it that has been created by the art department at CTMH. This one really caught my eye, I liked that it used very little patterned paper and they highlighted the embossing! They also used the Sparkle Fourishes, which there are more colors of in the upcoming Idea Book that goes live August 1!
I also love the paper ribbon they used to accent the photos! Are you looking forward to the new Idea Book! We have 13 new workshops including 8 layouts ones, some home decor ones and 2 card ones!

Layout Challenge #29
I love the zip strips with the words on them! They are really fun! I used 3 zip strips on this layout, can you find them?
Joshua is very cute and fun to make pages of. I modified the right page to have only 5 pictures instead of nine! I love how I can change the look of a layout just by changing a photo spot to journaling or just a piece of paper.
I enjoyed creating this and look forward to seeing what you have created!

Layout Challenge Week #28
My little superheros had a wonderful birthday party last December! This paper made it just so incredibly easy to create layouts!
I used the zip strips as borders on the left page bottom and under Micah's name. I also used the zip strips to make the present, I just cut them in graduated lengths and put a strip of red underneath and stacked them up! I added ribbon and a star on top to make it look more like a present!
I had fun making this! What are you up to creating these days!
