Well, this week’s Customer Spotlight could not have been easier for me. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, this fabulous hybrid project by Tracey, tlcaudle, was an obvious choice!
Tracey decorated the mailbox using Zoe’s new kit, Irresistible, shown below.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful Valentine’s Day project with us, Tracey. It’s wonderful inspiration for anyone looking for a fun and unique gift!
Hey everyone! 
This week I’ve teamed up with not one, not two, but three other fabulous designers from SSD to make the prettiest kit EVER! Wanna see?
There’s a couple of other things from me too… Not your usual kit so it’s not the usual sneak peek, but I can share a card by Andrea that is sooo cute!
Thanks for looking! Happy Friday!
Hola scrappers! It is rainy and cold here (well, cold for central Texas ) and I am completely unmotivated. Ever have those days?

Happy Saturday! Dawn here to spotlight a beautiful new kit by Zoe called Irresistible. It’s perfect for all those Valentine’s Day layouts coming up, but really versatile for other uses too as you can see from the pages below.
Here are some of the pages Zoe’s Creative Team made to show off this beautiful kit:
AND, in case you haven’t heard the exciting news, The Sweet Shoppe is celebrating it’s 4th birthday with a big sale! So now is a great time to pick up this kit and any other Zoe goodies you may have on your wish list. Stop by Zoe’s SSD store to check it out!
Hi, guys! Bryn (the {voodoo} kind, not just the regular kind) here with a quickpage for you! I did a lift of BeccaBoo’s Merry & Bright last week and loved it so much, I thought I’d share it with everyone! (Omg, so modest, too, right?) I used Zoe’s That’s My Boy! kit and I have to tell you, if you have a special boy in your life, even if it’s your dad… you need this kit, it’s pretty spectacular, and it’s my favorite Zoe kit, it’s definitely a must-have for your Zoe stash.
Anyways, here’s my page:
And here’s the quickpage for you!
Just click on it to download the quickpage. Happy Hump Day, ladies, it’s raining here, I hope it’s sunny where you are!
If you are a digi girl who wants to try hybrid then this post is for you (if you’re a traditional papercrafter or already do hybrid then you might learn something too!)
When you were first starting digital scrapping you learned all the techniques and shortcuts you needed to make life easier when creating a layout and these are just as important in hybrid crafting so don’t forget about them. Now, I am not a digi girl (I have made 9 digital layouts in the whole of my life) but I have borrowed some shortcuts from the digi world and I use them all the time to make my cards.
Create a new document in photoshop at the size you want your card to be and then use the cookie cutter tool – did you forget about that one? – and choose the star shape.
Drag the star until it fills your document, this will make the base of your card
Now use another of your digi tools to clip your patterned paper. Add a paper layer, make sure it is above the star shape in your list of layers then use the ctrl g command to clip your paper to the star shape
Create your card on the screen by repeating the star process with a coordinating paper and adding numbers, a journalling strip and some text to add the recipients name. By doing it all on screen you can resize the elements to make a good fit
Next I created a document the same size as my printer paper and dragged each layer onto it
After this it’s simply a case of printing, cutting and joining together to make a fabulous star shaped card
There are lots of shapes in the cookie cutter option in photoshop that can be used to create shaped bases for your cards.

Hey everyone!
Just thought I’d drop in and let you know that I’ve got a new paper line coming out with My Mind’s Eye which will be released next weekend at CHA!!

I collaborated with a good friend of mine (and my old boss from MME), Jen Allyson, and this has to be one of my favourite lines EVER!! It’s such a cute line, and I can’t wait to see it up close and personal!!
Which, in other news, I WILL be… next weekend to be exact!! Yup, I’m taking the plunge and flying out to America for CHA!! So, if you’re gonna be there at CHA, please drop in to the MME booth and say hi – you will make me feel very special indeed – LOL!

Happy Monday everyone. With the brand new year here I’m sure you’ve probably been inundated with resolutions and lists, inspiration to start fresh or get a handle on those areas in which you’re lacking. On one hand I love the positive attitudes and motivations, on the other hand, it can be absolutely overwhelming and often the standards set are too high to reach.
This got me thinking about how much I embrace “warts and all scrapping”. To me that means being honest in your pages, both to yourself and your subjects, and having fun while doing it. Personally, when I scrap for my family, I want them to have a real snapshot of life from my perspective. Often that means scabs and dirty faces and the documentation that yes, sometimes they can be less than perfect. I’ve been known to succumb to hormones and let is show. I love to experiment, sometimes it works, a lot of other times not so much. Sometimes I use bad pictures because that’s all I’ve got. It’s why I have pages in my gallery that have journaling or page designs that kind of make me queasy looking back on them. I leave them there because that’s pretty much who I am, regardless of the visual proof. I’ve decided life’s too short, so I’ve set my own few goals for this year, I’m reworking, purging and decluttering with relish, but I’ll still be embracing the imperfections too.
After all the rambling, I leave you with my latest “Don’t care if the pictures bad” page
Zoe's Winter Wonderland
And the winner is…
Congratulations Jenn!
I will be in touch with you shortly with details for your GC from Zoe!
