New Release Day @ ES

Today is Monday so that means new releases at Elemental Scraps! The designers are truly on a roll lately, I've just seen some of the new February Color Play out next week and it is amazing! Here are some layouts I've done recently using kits new in the shop today!

Oh Baby by Flutter Expressions & Kandy Kane Creations

Love Stinks by Bella Gypsy


Masculine Edge by Flutter Expressions


Connie Prince's Love Birds

Getting Caught Up

I think I'm finally caught up with 2009 and 2010 pictures!

Our family just went to see Sesame Street Live. It was such a fun show, and the kids had a blast! This was made using Kandy Kane Creations' Up Up and Away:


I have been wanting to scrap this page for a really long time, but couldn't find the right kit. Connie Prince's Party On was perfect!


And here's an oddity in my scrapping lately - a kit not sold at Elemental Scraps! It's by Chelle's Creations and I LOVE it. My kids made Jesus a birthday cake on Christmas Eve and we ate it right after brunch on Christmas morning. I think we've started a new tradition!

Check out this kit by Bella Gypsy, called Mayhem. It's one of her older ones, but I really love it because it's so versatile! I can see using this for a lot more pictures, especially older ones of my son that I need to go back and scrap.



I went back and did an older New Year's Eve layout because I just couldn't pass up Bella Gypsy's new Martini's at Midnight kit! The colors are perfect for the pictures I had.


Don't forget this Monday is Dollar Day at Elemental Scraps! And one of the kits I have used here will be only $1! ;)

January Template Freebie

Here's the layout I created with it:


Enjoy! :)
