Girls Paperie: Fresh layout

I love every single piece of the new Girls’ Paperie products… which is no big surprise. I especially adore the banner paper from the Kitch line.

Cut out, stitched, layered… it’s just a whole lot of fun. Here’s another layout I made for the Girls’ Paperie featuring the Kitch line:

I love how well stamping & stitching go together with these products. The brads? The stickers? OH MAN. I love it all. Can’t wait to get my hands on more!!

I wouldn’t have thought that I’d be such a fan of all the primary colors… but sure enough Margie worked her magic and I’m in love.

Guest-filled friday:

I’m getting around today! I’m guesting over at Shimelle’s site:

Sharing 5 projects (all with hearts used). Perfect timing for Valentines & more.

Creative Retreat

There’s still time to sign up if you want to join in the fun. http://www.bigpictureclasses.com/creativeretreat.php

I’ve already been enjoying the classroom, answering emails, and settling in for a day of creative work. This week has been wild – time to clean up my messy studio!!! Here’s a video of what I’ve been up to so far today…

Singing my happy little working song and cleaning my disaster area are top priorities to start my day. Of course I may be tempted to go play in creative retreat classroom instead…

If you are in class I’d love to hear from you! Let me know what you’re liking so far!
