Getting caught up

Been so long since I've had time to do anything but stare at my Anatomy book. I've been scrapping like crazy for the last week- these are all over a couple months, but I've done 7 or 8 layouts so far this week. 4 weeks left of my break, then probably no scrapping for a while after that. Anyway, we'll start with Tangie/Sherrie's layouts. As always, credits are in my DST gallery.



I used a variety of kits for this 2 pager- absolutely in love with this layout:




I did this one today using Tangie's "Me- Everything" kit, "Chipper Chatter- only available at Scrapbook Graphics, and the blue alpha from the December Mystery case over at the store:
Here's my sweet nephew and our first time holding him- used "Baby Bliss" and the mystery case alpha:
LOVE the "Sew Girlie" kit- it didn't appeal to me at first, but after seeing a few other layouts, I just fell in love:
For all you Twilight fans, Tangie's kit "Dazzle" was made with that book in mind. I love this layout:





Now for the Pixel Gypsy stuff. The store now has several designers, and I'm on the store Creative Team, so I have access to ALL of their awesome designs. The template was by Abish Allen, and the kit- "Spa Retreat" is by Angie Hinds:
Here's a template from "Whit's Style Plates", using "Jungle Boogie" from MElissa Bennett:
Amanda Carlson's "Tis the Season":
And the December Collab from Pixel Gypsy- "Mittens and Things":


Sherrie's Flannel Jammies Series:
Kit is Elise Hansen's "Touchdown"- love her alpha
This kit was created just for me! It's called Liz's Wine Cellar- inspired by the colors of my house. I love love love it! :)
This used Amanda's template and a custom kit for another one of our CT members- Jamie's bit of Whimsy:
A template from Sherrie and the kit is "Erin's Paisley Perfection"- another custom CT kit:



Last but not least are the last few layouts I did while still on Melissa Bennett's team. I had to drop her team- sooooo sad due to time constraints and my studying all the time. I miss her kits something fierce. :(




Thanks for looking!

LOTS of layouts

Since I hosted the blog carnival, I didn't want to interfere with that, so I'm posting about 2 1/2 months worth of layouts right now. Summer school made it very hard to scrap- but now with the month of August free, I think I'm catching up. :)

First using products from Tangie Baxter Designs- all designers:


This is using stuff in an upcoming grab bag so be on the lookout:
This is using Molly DeCrow's "Let's Be Friends" for the Teacher's Pet contest at Funky Playground Designs. She made to round 3 so far! YAY!:
I LOVE Tangie's new kit- "Wee Lil Wise Guys":
and Molly's new "Hip Junkie" is sooooo fun!:
Here's another one for an upcoming challenge at the TBD loft blog, but the kit- County Fair is already in the store:
Moving on to stuff using Pixel Gypsy Designs, which now includes Sherrie Piegdon, Ami Collofello, and Amanda Carlson as designers.
This layout uses "Candy's Fairy Dreams"- one of the many of the customized kits for each member of the CT team.
Here's one using "Christine's Seaside Escape":
A mixture of products, but mostly Amanda's "Fantabulous"
Using Sherrie's "Urban Edge":
Using another CT kit- "Debbie's Camp Hilaka" and a template from Amanda:
The following 2 just use templates from the store:

Now for Melissa Bennett's stuff:
Fabulous kit "Grinalicious":
Collab with Robin Carlton and Manda Bean- "Dear Diary":
Using her collab for Live Out Loud Scraps:
Using "Little C":
"Katarina":
"Bianca":
"Tubby Time":
And here are a couple that I didn't use CT stuff for:

And last but not least, my last 2 from Merkeley Designs. I've been on her team for a year, but with my upcoming workload, I've had to reduce my creative teams. Over the last few months I've gone from 8 to 3. I will really miss working for her- she is so great to work with and I really enjoy her style.
This kit is called "Ziggin":
I love this kit- "Macho Flowers":

Thanks for making it to the bottom! I really enjoy sharing these! :)

New stuff

My scrap time has decreased SIGNIFICANTLY. If I can survive June and July, I'll hopefully be able to catch up in August when I have a month off school. You know the drill- credits and journaling can be found in my galleries.
