First up, I want to share some layouts featuring the new JBS line, Family Tree.
I am all about this new release. The color combination, the journaling cards, that amazing die-cut paper, and those VELLUM BUTTERFLIES!!! Oh, I'm sorry, am I yelling? JBS just makes me happy. I know I say it all the time, but it's true.
These are booth layouts, that's why they are a bit different than my usual layouts (lack of journaling, etc).
For sneaks/photos of the entire line, keep checking the Inspiration Blog.
red labels and alphas are previously released. everything else is brand new. :)
lovelovelovelove those butterflies.
cardstock, butterfly, "2" previously released. everything else is new.
next up is a sneak of the August Studio Calico kit! this is the layout i did for kelly purkey's second sketch book class.
and last but not least, some photos of miss h on her recital day at princess ballet camp. one of our favorite things to do on special occasions is use my stick on rhinestones and pearls (from my stash) as "earrings".
some of you may recall i did the same thing on j for the jersey shore party. HEEE!
whew. random post. i don't blame you if you stopped reading. :) :)
HAPPY WEEKEND!
xoxo

My goodness everything looks amazing! love them all but especially the LO of you with the butterfly- gorgeous! And I'll have to pass on your tip of using your leftover bling as earrings for your princess...I have a bestie who has 2 princesses who would love that!

What a sweet post! That last picture of your daughter was worth reading the whole thing. Besides I always read the whole thing. :)

That last picture of H... OH MY GOSH. Just gorgeous. Seriously. Get a HUGE canvas of it, it's just amazing.
I'm not sure I ever told you, but I have a close friend that I met via my infertility "journey". She had twin girls in January. Named them Harper and Ruby. I got to name one. I chose Harper. :O)

Can't believe how big the girls are getting! I remember you were pregnant with Sadie when I first started reading your blog and you've had me hooked ever since. The random entries are always my favorite.
Posted by: Heather H | 07/17/2010 at 01:01 PM
I SO heart JBS as well:) LOVE the Sadie LO and Harper is GORGEOUS!!! :)

Harper makes my heart melt a little each time I see her, she's such a wonderful girly girl! :)
PS> Love the "earrings" :)

that princess is not even mine and I want to faint everytime I see her!
enjoyed the layouts too...but really, that last one, oh my!
Posted by: Carol | 07/17/2010 at 11:02 PM
Tell Harper that she is the most beautiful ballerina princess I have ever seen! Her dress is princess perfect, luv it!
Posted by: bluemoon | 07/18/2010 at 12:22 AM
I'm totally using my stick-on pearls & bling to give my 5yr old some earrings. She's been "all about" earrings lately--she's scared that it will hurt if she gets them pierced though. This is perfect! Thanks so much.
Posted by: Erin M | 07/18/2010 at 12:33 AM
I love when you share photos of your gorgeous family! And I love the random posts best!
Honestly, you have the most beautiful family ever. The photos of Harper today just took my breath away - so beautiful!
Thank you for your blog - it is one of my very favorite places to escape when I have a few minutes free.

I love the princess ballet camp pictures :) What a sweetheart!! Also, I'm quite impressed you have mastered the whole "picture in the mirror" self portrait. Mine are always not in focus :)

Oh My! what a beautiful child! Loved the layouts, love the new papers from Jenni Bowlin! Thank you so for sharing!
Posted by: Kat Layton | 07/22/2010 at 04:38 PM
I love the new products of Jenni's!! Love what you made!! Wonderful pages! Oh my gosh!!! LOVE that little princess dress on Harper!! She is just the prettiest! Look at those eyes! Hope you are feeling well and surviving the heat and guessing humidity. Never been down there, so not sure if it gets muggy. It sure is here!!! Very warm mid-90's and very high humidity!! Our first real summer in a few years. It's been awhile.
