I think this is the least amount of LOs that I have done since I start digi-scrapping. I used to do this many LOs in one month, and this time it took me 7 months. Enjoy the show anyway!!

Throwback Thursday!!!

Hello Digiscrappers! Aussiegirl here, today is Throwback Thursday! I love looking through older kits in my stash and being inspired to use them again.

This summer, I was able to spend a week with extended family. We had a great time of just hanging out, going to the beach together, and enjoying one another's company. Mary's kit Family Fun, is perfect for some of our many photos from our fun trip!

Family Fun is such a great kit, and versatile enough for any kind of page! You can find it here at ScrapMatters.com: http://shop.scrapmatters.com/family-fun.html

Megg here for this weeks bit of inspiration. We've been running nuts lately. My husband is trying to start a new business. We've moved in the last few months. Everything has been completely up in the air. To top it off, my little one has taken this month to start having "terrible two" tantrums. So as much as last month's inspiration was to cherish the simple things, this month I've done a total 180.

For this weeks inspiration, try to document those moments that may be a challenge for you right now. Why document it, you say? I like to think that I am a realistic scrapper. I know we are not perfect, far from a perfect family actually. This is a way you can show growth. See how far you've come. I also personally look at it as a great source of proof. For one day in the future when they don't believe me when I said that they wore me out. Happy scrapping guys!

If you click on my page it will take you directly to Mary's store at Scrap Matters, where you'll find the Chunky Metal Alpha, Terrible Two's kit, and the Paper Pieces Template Set that was used to make this page.

Give Away Monday...

Can you believe that August is nearly over??

Throwback Thursday - Terrible Twos

Terrible Twos

Having my little one turn two has brought this kit to my attention.  It is perfect for the tantrums, messes and fun that accompanies any-aged child, but especially the two year olds!  Here are a few layouts for inspiration.

Good Wednesday Morning/Afternoon!! Heidi here with some inspiration to get your scrapping juices going! I have been scrapping a little in the last couple of weeks, and am playing a little catch up with some photos from a couple of years ago. I am a chronological/even scrapper, so when it is all printed it has to be in order, but the beauty of digital scrappbooking is that I can go back and forth and when it's all printed off, I just put them in order. I love that I feel like I can have more freedom to scrap what I want rather than be tied down to certain events. So last week I scrapped an even that happened last month and then this week I scrapped a couple of LOs from 2 years ago! And of course Mary has the PERFECT kit for both LOs!

So, my inspiration is go outside your box, whether it's like me and scrapping recent pictures vs. playing catch up, or trying out a new style in your scrapping! I will leave you with the 2 LOs I have done which will be linked to Mary's Funny Faces kit! Have a great Wednesday!!
