This month, when working with this set, I felt it was more suited towards layouts instead of cards. So here's two layouts that went perfectly for the sentiments in this stamp set. I hope you enjoy!

I created this layout about something we probably don't scrapbook about often - funerals. But when I see this stamp set, it makes me think of layouts that have to do with being home. And here, my mom opened her home for the final three months of my Uncle's life. They had always had a rough relationship but in the end, the love and loyalty to family brought my mom to the decision to open up her home to him during his greatest time of need. What a great thing for me to remember about my mom's love and kindness.


The next layout is of Christmas morning.... photos of us at home celebrating the arrival of a trampoline delivered by Santa and then later, sharing Christmas with my in-laws at their home - the family home where my husband grew up. The sentiments on this set can go so well with so many layouts as so many things take place at home. 

Thanks for visiting!
Now hop on over to Nancy Brown's Blog to see her creations!

Chantilly Cards


 Here's a look at some cards I made for the team meeting swap yesterday. This was my favorite pack of paper from the new catalog - Chantilly. I also made a great Disneyland layout with this packet I can't wait to share with you. I'll also share with you soon some of the cards that I received in the swap and made from the make and take teachers. It was a fun day of creating and sharing CTMH business ideas and successes with the team. We were saddened that our San Jose regional event had been canceled due to low registration, but so glad I have a great team to of which to be apart!

Double layouts!!

Gettin' it done in 2013!!!

My new scrapbook method: don't do a layout without doing a duplicate layout with a different packet. This time I didn't use a workshop guide. I used the stickease from one pack and on the back of the sticker sheet there is a layout suggestion and it has the layout name and the book to find it. So this is Hocus Pocus from the Magic book.

Also a sneak peek at February stamp on the month... Can you spot it???
