Kuranda Rainforest

November! Oh my!!! 

Is it just me or is this year speeding by...I'm not sure how I feel about that ;)

With the first day of the month comes a brand new sketch with Lets Scrap Sketches...

...so that much we love!

I saw some new Graphic 45 papers at the Shoppe and had to play with it using some photos of our trip to Australia and the Kuranda Wildlife Centre...awesome day and great photos of us feeding the birds!

Graphoc 45 papers are usually pretty 'busy' for me...loads of pattern and sometimes challenging to use lots of it together...I loved this sketch for adding bits of pattern to get a taste for it.

Cork alphabet...all time favourite...not sure how it'll survive the years in an album...but I don't really care, so there! LOL

Burlap and twine...all time favourite for ribbon...you can probably tell that much about my style :)

I'm sure you'll have fun with this sketch...head on over to the Let's Scrap Sketches blog to see what the other Design Members did with this sketch...check out their blogs as well as you will often see tips or techniques and usually better photos of their projects :)

Happy Crafting my Creative Peeps!!!

Are you curious about what's comin'???

As an Independent Consultant for Close To My Heart I am very fortunate to get a look and a play with the new products coming one month before it's release to customers...

depending on how fast I put in my order depends on how much playing I get in :)

So the number one item that I was SUPER excited to get my hands on was our 

Picture My Life Scrapbooking Program...which consists of 44 - 4"x6" cards (2 each of 22 designs), 78 - 3"x4" cards (3 each of 26 designs), 1 - 12"x12" designed cover sheet and 10 - 12"x12" memory protectors!!! 

This one is called Skylark and it's one of my favourites...love the 

colours and the birds and dragonflies.

I got two more collections as well and I will hopefully have something to show off in the coming week. I'm heading away tomorrow for a scrapbooking weekend so that will help with the creative juices and any luck and I'll get more of my 2013 Project Life album that much closer to complete!

Check out some more of the Skylark CTMH artwork here:

Check out the cover of our new 2014 Spring/Summer catalog...

I can't wait to play with the feathers stamp set you see above and that woodgrain...LOVE IT...thanks for stoppin' in today and I hope you have some scrap-tastic plans yourself!
