For the month of July we got a break from new releases.... you know get Paola to recharge a bit :)  And while she's going to be doing that we are showcasing some of her awesome digis!  And that's what I'm doing here with the super cute Surfer Kody I thought this little guy would be perfect for my camping smash album. I'm pretty happy because if you know smash albums, you know that there are pages with just pictures on them... and therefore you can't really journal anything there.... you might add some pictures but even those unless they are matted would kind of be lost. When my youngest came back from the last day of school, he had a bunc

And there's also still time to play with us at the progressive challenge over at the FB group . You can find the great Call me here and the awesome Thinking of you here.

I colored this little guy with my copics. For the next make I did something totally NEW for me... a toilet paper Midori book!!!!  I watched a bunch of great videos to make this up.  Here's one for you:  I used some hair elastic for the closure.  The image was colored with my cop

OMG I'm writing this post with only 5 minutes to spare.... I had such a great weekend in the company of the super talented and amazing all around person Paola Jofre!  But this means that my post is not done.... and yeah... good thing I know the boss lady and I think that I have a good excuse for being late lol It was such an amazing weekend.... went by WAY too fast but now I feel like I've been hit by a bus... I knew this would happen because I'm not supposed to be doing anything due to the depression and when I do it empties out my reserve way too fast... but this was planned from 2 months ago... and there was no way unless I was in a coffin that I would miss this!  So now this week will be all about doing NOTHING for real.... and just sleeping lol  but the wonderful memories will get me going. Enough about me I only now have 1 minute to the deadline.... on man I will be late.... yikes... oh well.... It's time to share some fab new release over at  My Whimsical l

Ok so here's my 2 creation.  1st of with the great Little Prince for the progressive challenge.  I had already shared some previews of him. I was pretty happy because I used my Spellbinder nested crowns (had them forever and never used them yet...) The paper is from Childish things - Fancy pants.  I used some little wood crowns and covered them with some doodlebug sugar coating glitter.  I stamped the sentiment and faux stiched around the crowns.  I also added some bling from Hampton Art to his crown. Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics. Now for the second make I used the great new release image Harold the dragon .  I decided to try out a different layout that I
