Me & U

Do you get inspiration from mood boards? I definitely do! I blogged about the September Scrapbook Circle mood board over on their blog. Head over there to see what inspired this page!

I LOVE how this turned out and I think a lot of it has to do with the story here. Also, those wee chipboard birdies are rocking my socks today. I don't often use printed chipboard but these two were just too cute to pass up.

I also love any layout where I mix lots of patterns. They seem to pack a bigger punch! And the papers in the Hello Hello kit were just so luscious! Usually my go-to neutrals are black and white. But there was a lot of brown in this kit and I completely embraced it.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! And if you're in the USA, I hope you're having a relaxing Labour Day!

ALSO, I almost forgot to mention that it's the last day to get 30% off of your next Scrapbook Circle order. Use this link and enter  the code TAKE30 at check out. Happy shopping!

Favorite Podcasts

The latest Scrapbook Circle kit, Hello Hello, is available and I totally loved creating with it! The colors are just so good, you guys. Like soooo good! I love good black and whites paired with teals, yellows and grays. In true Jamie fashion, I pulled out all of the stuff in just those colors and here's what I came up with:

Tessa challenged me to create a layout with speech bubbles. I couldn't think of a better icon to use on a page about my favorite podcasts. Lately I'm loving Being Boss & Art for your Ear. And of course I love any podcast that let's me get in on the action. I'm looking at you Paperclipping Roundtable! The screenshot for PRT is from one of the episodes I was on.

The page design is based off of the SBC sketch from last month. I loved it so much but didn't get the chance to use it. So happy it made it work this month.

Head over to the Scrapbook Circle to see more ideas using the Hello Hello kit. Be sure to snap it up if you haven't already. The add-on this month is already sold out!

cheers & besos,

Finishing Pages

Hiya! I'm sharing over at the Scrapbook Circle blog today (although there was a technical difficulty we're trying to sort out!) 

I created a short video all about finishing my pages. I started with foundations and this picks up at the point of deciding on all of the details: title, journaling, embellishments. I used the August Make it Happen kit and the Sweet Details add-on. Click over to the blog to see all of the finished pages.
