I am doing creative team work for Shien Designs this month at Digital Candy and she just released the coolest kit yesterday, Xing Fu (Happiness) Kit I have never worked with anything like it but I have to say it is AMAZING!!! Great colors, awesome elements, stunning papers and textures, and just loaded, you get SO MUCH!!! I highly recommend it, check it out here.
So far I have done one layout....which I LOVE, and I anticipate doing a whole lot more with it. Here is Beauty:

I also got a chance to use the December Collab kit - Cold Hands Warm Heart. This kit is amazing! There are so many papers and elements its crazy and the colors are so soft and pretty yet vibrant! I urge you to pick up this baby for your holiday and winter pics!!

Speed Scrap

I did my first ever speed scrap!!! It is digital scrapping an instruction at a time for an hour, never know what they are going to be or if they are going to work together based on your decisions. This time it worked out perfect for me and I love the layout!!! I used a kit from Brenda Smith Designs - For Amy and I did the speed scrap at Scrap Matters.

Treasured Scrapbooking December 15th Reveal

This had to be one of my most favorite kits ever at Treasured Scrapbooking!!!! Except, well, I just saw a sneak for January and I am seriously in love with that one too, cant wait to get it. Anyway for December I had kit 2, lots of jenni bowlin goodness, mixed with KaiserCraft and Dream Street, great color combinations!!


Today I posted two layouts, I warn you they are full of emotion and depicting real life :)









































And then I made this cool vase. Just used a clear glass straight sided vase, did the layout, applied ATG adhesive to the FRONT of the layout and rolled it, then pressed it against the glass. Of course you cant put water in this vase but it will be lovely with the Calle Lilys my daughter Katy will put in them.
