Scrapbook & Cards Today: Pocket Play & A Giveaway

Bring on the moments...I mean, the giveaway, right??

I am truly honored to be a part of the Scrapbook & Cards Today issue this summer! I love a good magazine I can hold, touch, feel, smell (weird, right?) and KEEP FOREVER, so working with SCT was a pure dream! My article is all about recording those sweet summa-time memories in those cute little pockets! I used a few different sized page protectors because I'm wishy-washy like that and love to mix things up!

Momazine Magazine: Sharing My Story

Jot Magazine: Issue 7

Have you seen the latest Jot Magazine?  Issue 7 is jam packed with pretty goodness and much, much more.  Pouring over this magazine with a cup of coffee is my favorite.  It's kind of like my Sunday tradition....even though I've seen it a zillion times, I just can't stop looking at it!!  I contributed a few layouts and Project Life spreads to this issue and I love both layouts.  The themes were different and fun this month, and I always love to switch things up and think outside of the box. 

This first layout was made for the polka dot theme.  I took a little bit of a twist on this theme and incorporated "polka dots" on my page using my circle punch, doilies, round elements and drops of paint.  I'm still kind of addicted to circles right now....

This layout was created using three of my favorite "things" (scrapbook related).  Old book pages, doilies and white die cuts are my go-to when I create pages, or even mini albums, so I played around with those ideas and came up with this page.  

I started by mod podging book paper all over my white background.  As you can see, I mixed up the orientation quite a bit to give a messy look.  Any of the edges that weren't completely sealed down, I frayed and folded up a little.  I love the texture and dimension it adds to my page. 

The rest of the page came together so quickly....some easy layering and embellishments and it was finished!

Be sure to hop on over to Jot to see the rest of Issue 7!  

Jot Magazine: Issue 6

It's here!  It's here!!  Issue 6 of Jot Magazine is now available for viewing and I'm pretty sure it's my favorite issue yet!!  There is just so much gorgeous inspiration packed inside this magazine.  It's definitely the "grab a cup of coffee, sit and relax" type of read!  I know you will enjoy it!

I am so fortunate to have several layouts and Project Life spreads in the latest issue.  I had so much fun putting my pages together, and they just came together so easily.  I really love when everything "just works", you know.  

Did you know the magazine is "clickable" meaning, you can click links through the magazine to be taken to blogs, challenges, shopping, etc.  That's so awesome, right?  Below are my layouts for each of the challenges in the magazine (stripes, mega photo, birthday).  Be sure to add your project by following the links (or by stopping by the Jot blog).  We can't wait to see what you create!!
