guest hybrid post at One Little Bird

Today I have a guest post over at One Little Bird designs blog.  I create for her full time but did a guest hybrid post with some simple tips on how to create a quick hybrid page.  I would love for you all to head that way and have a look.

this is you | paper issues cut file

On Saturday a new FREE cut file was posted at Paper Issues.  I didn't have time to play with it before it went live so I made something on Saturday to share here with you.

I just grabbed up the memory planner goodies from PI and couldn't wait to play with them.  I don't have the planner binder yet but there was so much to use I figured I could make a page while I waited.  These polka dots and flowers were calling my name.

supplies:  heidi swapp memory planner papers and elements + maggie holmes open book glitter thickers +  paper issues cut file + silhouette cameo

As always, head on over to Paper Issues to grab the free cut file and link up to win a swag bag.  Cassie's swag bags are amazing so you don't want to miss grabbing one for yourself.

happiness is a state of mind

Ever since Christmas when I opened up the Silhouette my family bought me, I have been crazy for hybrid.  I see every digital product as a potential "print and cut" project.  This new set of photo templates by Paislee Press is no exception.

minimalist

I usually don't print dimensional items because they just don't tend to look "real" but this gorgeous blue flower was just screaming to be used.  I think it came out alright,

supplies:

teacher valentines | the rubber cafe

I have the most wonderful opportunity this month to be guesting at The Rubber Cafe.  I worked with the Creative Cafe February Kit of the Month.  It is adorable!
It has a stamp set and some lovely goodies by Doodlebug.  The first thing I made were some  teacher valentines.
Head on over to have a look at the detail shots and full list of supplies.

rest | paper issues pinspire challenge

Today brings a new challenge to paper issues.  The pin this time was just so much fun.  The colors and all the hearts are perfect for a non traditional "love" theme.  I wish I would have had a photo of my hubby and I to use with this but I am still super inspired and will probably make another page later.

The Perfect Pairing - New PI Issue

It's time for a new issue at Paper Issues!  This time we are talking about Perfect Pairings and the prize is from Epiphany Crafts.  Suggested link up ideas: use a favorite color combo, photo of you and someone you love, wedding photos, anniversaries, use two of something (same embellishment, etc.), photos of food/favorite food pairings, love, Valentine's Day, hearts, favorite pair of shoes/earrings/anything that comes in pairs, use "we make the perfect pear/pair" as a title/sentiment.
 
My page features my wonderful husband and I as a perfect pair.  We are finding things that we love to do together just by ourselves.  This time it was a football game.  I never thought I would love a sports arena and a game of football live.  Too many people, too loud...but I loved it.  It was a really fun thing to do with my husband.  Cannot wait to get to do more of these fun things with him.
