Living My Dream: Getting Behind on Blogging Again...

Getting Behind on Blogging Again...

I had all my CHA favorite product photos all edited and ready to post and then Photoshop closed for some unknown reason (hmmm...which of my three kids did that?!?!?!). This put me a little behind in doing more CHA posts. I also still need to do a CK Texture special issue give-a-way post (come back on Monday!) and I'll post about my wonderful visit with Kim Watson from South Africa next week.

I subscribed to the Studio Calico kits starting in February and I received my first one on Friday. It is appropriately called Candy Shoppe and includes all my favorite bright cheerful colors. I also ordered one of the add-on kits called Lollipop. I couldn't wait to jump into using them. I love having a select number of products to create from - it makes it so much less over whelming to get started. Here is my first layout called Eleventeen:

The clouds are stamped with the new Studio Calico cloud stamps that came with the kit. They fit perfectly with the Fiskars cloud punches in L and XL. I stamped them with blue ink on light blue dotted paper and then embossed them with American Crafts clear embossing powder.

Thanks for visiting - I will be back really soon. Off to make V-Day sugar cookies with the girls (for the boys!). HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL!!! suzy

Love your page Suzy! I just got my SC kit in the mail Friday and love the rainbow paper but I am a little stumped as to what to do with it...I love how you used it! I also love your title "eleventeen"...my daughter turned 11 last month and feels it's a "boring" age, she says 10 is cool because it's a two digit number and 12 is great because it's preteen, but 11 is boring...I'll mention eleventeen to her and see what she thinks...thanks for sharing your page! Sophie is a doll, by the way :)
