more My Minds Eye

Here are a few more projects
using the My Minds Eye
"So Sophie" lines.
I'll have them in the store
this week, for those that want
to see them in person.
I had a hard time getting a picture
of the round, scallop layout.
It is NOT adhered to the background paper.
The layout is simply the circular, scallop paper.

Hope you're all having a great summer!!

Father's Day cards

For those of you who haven't
made your Father's Day cards yet,
here's a little inspiration to get it done.
All 3 of these cards were made
using a combination of My Minds Eye's
So Sophie & Quite Contrary lines,
plus Cosmo Cricket chipboard.

If you're interested in any of these cards as a kit,
or you want us to make the card for you,
let Christy know & we'll get them together for you.

I also have 2 more layouts
using another of the My Minds Eye So Sophie lines.
I'll upload those beginning of the week!!

new My Minds Eye

*warning ~ picture heavy post*

So Christy is in Mobile today
for a Crop for a Cure.
If I'm not mistaken,
she took these lovely new
My Minds Eye products with her.
BUT..................................
you WILL want to come to the store
& see them in person.
TONS of great papers & embellies to match.
PLUS, most of these papers
go super-duper great with
the last My Minds Eye "Quite Contrary" line
& the last Cosmo Cricket "Jolly by Golly" line.

She's also not opposed to making up quick layout kits.
So, if you like any of these projects,
& want her to put the items in a baggie
for you to replicate for yourself,
just give her a call or email & she'll have it ready!!
NOW, how's that for customer service:)

You can see how this first line
reminds me of Christmas.
BUT, it can definitely be used for other things.

This next line has great colors,
including a beautiful brown, peach, orange,
blue, tealish green & creme.

There are a total of 4 lines,
I'm only showing 2 of them in this post.
I know some of the other dt gals
are working with the other lines,
so be on the look-out for them.
One is definitely all man/boyish
& the other has pretty purples & golds.
Happy Scrapping!!

My Minds Eye layouts

Hasn't today been the best
scrappin' day ever!!
Here's a couple of layouts

I made using more My Minds Eye.
I know you're probably getting sick
of seeing this line,
BUT,
there's so many possibilities.
I actually got to make a "boy" layout:)
I watch a friend's boy on Friday's,
so I enjoy getting some action shots.

that means you'll see, at least, one more project!!

Using some of the fabulous Pink Paislee

A card, 2 bookmarks & a magnet.

This layout is of a scrapbooking friend I met on-line.
We met sometime during 2006, maybe even late 2005
& found out we lived 5-hours apart.
So, while her family vacationed in Gulf Shores, AL,
her & I got together for lunch!!
In 2008 she was diagnosed with breast cancer
& is currently in remission.
