Hip Hop School's In!!

Today is all about the scrapbooking kit called Le Chic Vintage!!! Isn't it AMAZING!!!! I soooo gotta have it, love it, can't live without it!! But sadly, it's not available until September 1st. :(. The Unity site will have a lot of stalkers!!

Another kit that is equally FABULOUS is this month's KOTM!! This school house is just perfect for all those back to school photos that I will be taking next week!

I love that bird!! He's the perfect accent piece.

Isn't this saying GREAT for school!!!

Next you're off to the very sweet and very talented AJ!!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

We're Just Hip Hoppin Along!!

Today is all about Sending My Love!!! Even the title screams Valentine's! I am just in love with this incentive kit and I know you will be too! To get it just Hop on over to the Unity store and sign up for the KOTM before Aug. 31st. It's that easy!

Aren't these envelopes adorable!!!

I thought this kit was perfect for documenting my son's first crush!! Can you believe it?? And he's not quite 10! Look out ladies! :)

My second project is a bookmark I did using Something Within. This is one of my FAVES!!!

Next is the extremely talented JULIE!!!

Baby's First Bike!!!

Here's a layout I did for the GDT at Unity. It's wrong so don't follow my example!!!:) But, you still have time to enter!!! The deadline is 5pm central time!!

While doing this, I learned a very cool technique! I bought some white staz on ink a few weeks back thinking that I would be able to stamp crisp white images on my colored pattern paper. Not so. However, you can stamp on transparencies and then glue them to the page! That's what I did for the butterfly. If you have other ideas about using white staz on, I would love to hear them!!!!

all stamps are from the Aug. KOTM, Unity

And lastly, is a layout of my Baby. He is growing up too fast! I love the way he looks when he is sucking his thumb!! (I know I need to start trying to break him, but could you deny that face?!!?)

July KOTM, Unity

Aug 08 KOTM, Unity

Thanks for looking!!

Hip Hop!!!!!!

I am so STINKIN' excited about my first ever Hip Hop!!!! If you are coming from the very talented Robyn then you are on the right track!! I love Unity! I love the quality, I love the people, I LOVE the images and speaking of images... this store kit is AMAZING!!! It reminds me of fall, which is right around the corner. The ferris wheel is so fun. I immediately thought of the fair!

There are just too many things you can create with this stamp set.

I have so much fun making cookies with my boys. When they have a half day of school I will lay all the sprinkles and chips out on the table. I'll get the dough made and then pick the twins up from school. They know when they walk in the door that it's going to be a sweet afternoon!!

This measuring cup and spoons is ADORABLE!!!

Now don't FREAK OUT if you don't have a store nearby that carries this AWESOME kit, because there are a few online stores that carry it!!! You can find them HERE!!

Well that's all for today. Don't forget to check out Angela's blog for all the sweet deals today and then join us at SCS where we will chat it up and give away free Unity!!!!!

Next, you're off to Laura!!!
