A quick page put together so I could try out the content of the Stacks of Millions digital contents CD (offered as an hostess benefit in the Spring Catalogue. I like the cute colours in this one! I'm thinking of printing out the individual papers to use as patterned paper on cards. One more projects on the list for when I'm moved in and settled...

I haven't done much stamping or scrapbooking lately since I am busy with packing, but I was curious about the digital content on the Lemonade Stand CD-Rom (offered for FREE furing Sale-a-Bration!) so I popped it into the computer to check it out. I only meant to putter around and see what was on it, but I ended up doing a full-blown page. The colours of the kit match my niece's onesie very well, so I used those pictures of her that were taken at 3 weeks old, back when she couldn't be put on her belly without her crying. Those pictures break my heart - she looks so panicked in the first pic! Ironically enough, I saw her again last weekend (she's now three months old) and my sister showed me how she can now stay on her belly and hold her head up! Oh, how fast they grow...
Most of the digital content I used came from the Lemonade Stand CD, but I did add a few other stamps, like for the title. I really love the colours and patterns in this digital kit. I was particularly excited about the hexagons!
You can get your copy of the CD for free as well when you place an order of $60 worth of supplies. E-mail me if you are interested!

This cute card is CASEd from Tina Weller's cute Leadership swap card. It immediately caught my eye, as I love the way she paper pieced the booth out of red cardstock, giving the image colour and dimension. Hers also had a very cute handwritten sentiment that was taken directly out of the Pretty Petites SAB set. This fun detail didn't work with the French set, so I stamped another framed sentiment from Jolies mini instead (also a SAB gift). I added two mini silver brads to frame the sentiment and embossed the background using the Argyle embossing folder and that's it!
