LYB Cycling Team with the Paradise Collection and some Fancy Pants!

First off, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope you have the best time with your friends and family this holiday season!

Second, I am so excited to announce that I will be on Little Yellow Bicycle's Cycling Team designing with the Paradise Collection. I am thrilled at the opportunity to use such inspiring and quality products. Little Yellow Bicycle has been a favorite of mine since they started in the scrapbooking Industry. Please check out the blog to see the other talented ladies that I will be working with.

Lastly, I have some Fancy Pants projects that I want to share. Sadly, this month was my last month on the Fancy Pants DT. I have loved working with such talented ladies, wonderful product and a company that makes beautiful and inspiring collections. Thanks!

Carolee's Creations and a Let's Capture These Sketches Sketch!

If you are here for the Samantha Walker Blog Hop...just scroll down one more post.

I was so thrilled when Carolee asked me to do some projects with her Happy Hearts paper and fabric collection. This collection is so stinkin cute! Carolee and her cute Adornit girls are a bunch of super talented ladies and I am so dang lucky to have got to know them. I love the fact that Adornit is about 20 minutes from my house...yes! So here are some of the projects that will be featured in the new Happy Hearts Pattern Book. You can check out all of Carolee's fun stuff here and here.



I also made the heart wreath, but forgot to get a picture of it before I turned it in.

I have another beautiful sketch to share...made by the talented Charlotte over at Let's Capture These Sketches. This is sketch #112

Fancy Pants Filter Embellishments and layout!

I've got to be honest with you, when I first received my Filter Embellishments from Fancy Pants...I didn't quite know what to do with them. I knew if I got my brain turning that I could find something fun to create with them. Well, I have about depleted my Filter Embellishment stash from every Fancy Pants collection...I just love them! So this time around I decided to create something a little different. Now, I can't show you the whole project, just a sneak...but you can see the whole post on the Fancy Pants Blog as well as Vicki Chrisman's and Greta Hammond's projects! Fabulous ideas over there! I used the Saint Nick Filter Embellishments as well as the paper. Here is my sneak!


I also have last months blog project I would like to share. I created this project using the Summer's End Collection and mostly using the Design Embellishments...love these too!

So Very Handsome
