Magical day {CSI Casefile #12}

CSI: Casefile #12 went live today...GORGEOUS reveal!! You must go check it out!! :)


Hexagons are the "it" shape of the moment, so I went hexagon crazy, lol. When I was searching for pp in the above colors, I came across the new MME Be Amazing line, and loved this paper:
And, thought the striped sections were perfect. So, I decided I would go hexagons, lol. I have used a sketch from Creative Scrappers Creating with Sketches book, but flipped it. I really love the way it turned out!!

 EVIDENCE: hot-air balloon image, stars
TESTIMONY: inspiration word "magic"

My journaling is quite personal, but I will give you a few lines:

This day, this magical day, is the day that changed my life........I never knew how much love I could feel for someone so tiny. My tiny, gorgeous little boy, who changed my life forever.......


So, head on over to CSI, check out the amazing reveal, see who our awesome sponsor is this month, print out some of Michele's awesome digital case coordinates, and give this case a go!!! :)

Thanks so much for visiting my blog, and have a wonderful weekend!!

Boys Rule March kit layout...

Hi all!

I have a layout to share with you today from the March kit from Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits. Have I mentioned how much I love this kit?? Well, I do! :)






Loving A Boy's Life collection! The colors are just bright and gorgeous! Loving the yellow, used alot of it on this layout! :)





How cute is that little denim patch!?! I used it as a layering piece, but it could be used in so many different ways...journaling pocket, banner piece, you could cut it up and use it in different places, frame a photo...and on and on! :)






I am loving all the bits that Laura-Lee added to the kit this month...the twine, buttons, chipboard pieces! I have used a lot of them here. Love the dimension the chipboard pieces give...I have also popped up a few of my small photos for dimension as well.







Don't forget to play along with the sketches this month for a chance to win a Boys Rule RAK!!! Remember that we will have 3 sketches this month!! 

Thank you all for stopping by, and have a fabulous day!! :)

Boys Rule March 16th sketch and CSI casefile #11 sneak!!

Happy Friday everyone!! :)

Today another sketch went up at Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits! 



And here is what I did with it:





I had a lot of fun working with the kit for this layout! Instead of doing a half circle border around the large circle, I decided to use my arrow template and my green Memento marker and doodle my own border!! once I finished that, I decided to take my glossy accents and outline each arrow. Here are some detailed photos of that:




Love the effect it gives!! I really hope you all give this sketch a go! There are more examples over on the Boys Rule blog, you can head over and check them out...HERE.




Are you all ready for the CSI reveal tonight??!! It is one fabulous case!! You all will really love it!! 

Here is a sneak to get you through the day!! :P
