2nd Emporium "Family" Layout

As promised, here is another layout that goes along with my last post. I actually did "journaling" on this layout. I'm surprised because most of the time I don't like journaling. It really adds to the page and it also lets me remember what was going on in the pictures. I've got to do it more often!! Enjoy!

Emporium "Family" Layout

I finally had a chance to post this layout here. :) During the holidays, we were able to visit with our cousins from San Diego. It was really great seeing them! After looking at this hilarious "funny poses" picture, I knew that I wanted to do a special layout for it.

I used the Emporium Level 2 Paper Pack which features the colors: Buttercup, Cocoa, Crystal Blue and Sweet Leaf. I absolutely LOVE this brown / green / light blue color combination. I also used lots of embellishments: paper flowers, sparkles, brads, dimensional elements and sassy strands.

I have more pictures to "scrap" from this day, so stayed tuned for more. :)

A Real Surprise and Total Excitement!!!

At the end of last year, Close To My Heart wanted to know what kinds of games their consultants play. A few months prior, I created CTMH Taboo. It's played very much like the real game, Taboo. So, I submitted my idea and to my shock and surprise, CTMH published it in their newsletter that comes out to consultants only. Here is a picture of the newsletter and below are pictures of the game that I created (they used my picture!) and the description of how to play. Since this newsletter was published, I've received many emails of congratulations from my fellow consultants as well as instructions / game cards inquiries. If you are consultant and would like to use some of the game cards that I created, please let me know!
