A great week :)

Its been a fantastic week for me! To begin TALLY is back!! The lovely and talented Cristal Hobbs (aka Pinky) had taken the reigns of my favorite little place in cyberspace Tallyscrapper and is trying to bring it back to life. Tally is such a warm, friendly scrappy place where you can be you and get as raw and dirty as you'd like with your art. Nobody talks about you if you swear on your layout or do therapeutic non happy journaling. Tally ROCKS! Oh and there are points!

Ive also signed on to be the first guest designer for the new kit coming February 1st. I am pumped!

Secondly I got some fun fun news a few days ago. Looks like I'll be making cards again soon with some wicked cool stamps! Stay tuned for that announcement ;) Its very hush hush at the moment

I also got to scrap a TON this week... and that makes me happy. 8 layouts complete for 2011 already

Here is a little peeky peek of the February kit from Tidbitz in Time. Its so rich and romantic.... and I will say.... I dont ever think Ive seen so many packs of prima in 1 kit. Its amazing! Pics are dark because the weather here is so crappy. I need a lightbox fo sho

but one good thing about the crappy snowy weather is I got to bundle Aubrey up and let her play in the snow. Of course she took her gloves off and had to grab it

So she had to wear my gloves.... (they stayed on better) and boy did she have fun! She ran and marched. She stuck her face in it. She sat down in rolled around. She had a blast. It so was amazing watching her explore the new sensation of SNOW. She even cried when we took her inside. We distracted her with a hot bath and then she took a monster nap. It was a great day

Have you seen it?

by it.... I mean the NEW Spring Market line from Webster's Pages

 

holy crap it's delicious. It makes me feel all twitterpated and happy. I think I will have to buy EVERYTHING. I usually dont go hog wild for WP (they are so so pretty but not totally me) but this line is a-FRICKIN-mazing

Wanna see more?? Look HERE and HERE

and no i dont work for WP and I have no reason to pimp their stuff (didnt try out for the dt either) I have just been DROOLING over it since I saw it on the veggie site :)

Everybody's doin it

Since everyone else seems to be doin it.... I figured why not! Here are my top 10 favorite layouts of 2010...

in no particular order

 

1. I love sunshine   Because it got me stamping again... then I won like 20 American Crafts pigment ink pads with it on the AC blog stamping contest

2. She Crawls Cuz Aubs is so cute and i loved altering the canvas letters

3. Sleepy Girl    I made some of the flowers on this one by soaking cardstock, crumpling, doucing it in glimmer mist and then handcutting free style. Plus i love that netting and the photo is a fave

4. Red Haired Girl  I cut up the plastic canvas and inked it all up... plus i dig the photos exposure (my mom took it) it highlights her hair

5. Tiny Tigger   My nephew Wyatt is the cutest tigger! My first time with LYB!

6. My baby bump The Pink Paislee Anthology papers were sooo fun to play with... I got my glimma mist on all over the place

7. Aub on the Move  I love the sequence of pics. This was one of my first original sketches

8. He sees you when you're sleeping  The first 12x12 layout Ive done in YEARS but I couldnt resist that Bo Bunny shaped paper

9. The bumbo chair This was published in Scrap Street ezine this year. Its funky and fun

10. Sweet Slumber : The first layout I completed when I started designing again .... plus I love her sleepy face and the soft colors
