2CC February Kit

Here are a few layouts using the FINAL 2 Croppin' Cousinz 12x12 kit. Make sure you get your kit before they are gone. This kit is filled with LOTS of fun goodies.

2CC Countdown

It is with a little bit of sadness that we are counting down to the final days of the 2 Croppin' Cousinz online forums and to the discontinuation of the beautiful 2CC 12x12 paper crafting kits. Since the economy has been difficult, the "Cousinz," Amy and Kelly, have decided to discontinue making the larger kits and offer project kits as their only product. Their beautiful ribbon jars have also been discontinued. In the process of all the changes, they will close the online forum at the end of this month. The contract for the Design Team ends on January 31, 2009, so it was the perfect time for them to make the changes.

We will miss chatting with everyone in the forum, but, the Cousinz are beginning a new blog to promote their project kits. I know I'll be happy to blog-hop over to their new site and stay in touch. I hope you will to. We want to see you on the net! Please check out 2 Croppin' Cousinz brand new blog here:

Amy and Kelly, you have been wonderful to design for. Thank you for having me on your team. I wish you the VERY BEST in your new venture. {{HUGS}}

Ready for Spring

I am definitely ready for Spring. I can't wait to get out and start working in the garden. I was dreaming of Spring as I made this cute little accordion envelope album. You can find these beautiful papers and more at the Scrapadilly Store.


This is the front cover when the book is tied closed.


I have 5 little pockets to tuck small envelopes of seeds in at the end of the growing season.


On the inside pages, I used some of my favorite Autumn quotes. This picture shows the first two pages.


And the third and fourth pages.

This project was made using the following gorgeous papers: 12 x 12 Beautiful Life Double-Sided Heavy-Weight Paper ~ Beautiful Life; 12 x 12 Beautiful Life Double-Sided Paper ~ Collage; and 12 x 12 Double Dot Double Sided Textured Cardstock ~ Chocolate

Blog Clean-Up

I have been blogging for nearly two years now, and during that time, around 500 photos have been added. For the new year, I will be changing the look of my blog so I decided to get rid of the old and keep just the new. You may notice that my 2007 and 2008 posts have been deleted. I will update my public album with many of my past designs. Use them for your own scrappy inspiration!

I'm off to more creative endeavors. Happy Scrapping in 2009!

Happy New Year!!!

I wish you a very Happy New Year! I can't believe it is 2009 already. Time flys when you're having fun.

Here are some more holiday vacation layouts of my family having fun. All designs were created using the 2 Croppin' Cousinz January kit. This was such a fun kit to work with!

Holiday Vacation Layouts

I'm beginning to create using my photos from our Disneyland/Legoland holiday vacation. We had such a GREAT time! So far, I've create nine layouts to remind our family of our wonderful experience. Here are a few of my designs.

If you wish to create holiday layouts of your own - you can find the paper I used in the Scrapadilly store. Click HERE to check them out. Of course, I bought all my adhesive through Scrapadilly's "Things are Getting Sticky" club!
