BIG NEWS!!!

So, recently there was a CT (Creative Team) call over at Trixie Scraps Designs. I sent in my application and waited anxiously for a reply. I wasn't thinking I'd actually be asked to be a part of the team, but to my surprise I was!!!

I've been a part of this group for just about a month now and I can already tell it's a great group of ladies and Trixie is one talented gal!

Anyway, this past Tuesday was my 1ST EVER blog post on Trixie's blog. You can read it here. I look forward to doing so many more in the upcoming weeks, months and hopefully YEARS! :D

So being part of this team I've been able to play around with some of the newest kits Trixie has to offer. Besides the one I used in the blog post above, she made one called Remembering You. I can't tell you how long I've wanted a kit like this. It was such a great kit that I was able to create 2 pages out of the same kit and they don't even look that similar. AWESOME!!!



I seriously LOVE this kit. You should seriously look into purchasing this kit if you have a Memorial type page you're just waiting to scrap!

Father's Day Gifts

This project took me 3 months to complete and I was still cutting it close to the deadline.

Back in December my little sister did this for her hubby for Christmas. I bookmarked it and decided it'd be an awesome gift for Father's Day. My little sister first ran across this blog post and decided to make a photo book from it.

Yup, I totally stole her idea. I'm woman enough to admit it.

Like I said, I started this like in February and it took me till June to finish it. I got my hubby's done in time to get a photobook printed at Shutterfly, but my Dad's I didn't. I opted instead to make a video for my Dad. I think it worked better for him that way anyway.

I'll admit I didn't write down anything that I used because it was such a big project, but if you want more info like what kit I used and the fonts - give me the name of the page and I can track it down for you. I scraplifted most pages from Creating Keepsakes magazine.

Here's my Daddy's Video:

And here are the pages I did for my hubby:
