Paper Sweeties August 2019 New Release Rewind!

Good morning everyone!!

Today is the rewind and I wanted to share my week in my planner this month. 

I always change up my planer, I use to have to have it where the entire month was the same collection all the way through, but I realized I wasn't happy with that. What if I was using a collection that wasn't good for some occasion that we were celebrating, so I decided to use whatever I want on the week I'm working on, so that I'm happy with it. And I did that this week.

 

I used bits and pieces from a few different collections and manufactures and I was really happy with the way this turned out.

This week was one of my daughters birthdays, I know I've said that a bunch, but its a big thing in our family lol. We had a blast, more importantly, she had a blast!

I started with washi where I wanted it. I liked the bright color and then some polkadots in there. Love me some polkadots!

 

I stamped a little here and there, cut out a bunch of cute cupcakes and them moved to adding color to those. I love that you can chose the color of frosting and the cupcake holder, it adds more to the spread over all.

 

I added a few photos, and started to add more around them and build from there.

 

I added some chipboard pieces, cute little words, I love that I can use my stash for this! The colors all worked great together and then I continued to build more on my spread, adding more washi, cupcakes and word stickers. 

 

I finished my spread by adding a little envelope so that I could slide a card in with some little bits about the day, so that not only I would remember it but that she would have it to look at later in life. About the day she had with so much of her friends and family around.

Thanks for stopping by and seeing what I did today, make sure to check out the rest of the Paper Sweeties team and see what they did today as well!

Paper Sweeties August 2019 New Release Party! Hooray

Good morning everyone!!

I'm here sharing a new layout for Paper Sweeties New Release Party!! This month is the 7th Anniversary! And in kind these sweet stamps and dies were released.

 

 

This month just happens to be one of my littles birthday month too. So I got to put these cute little cupcakes on my layout! They worked perfectly!!

 

I had printed out a photo strip of my daughter blowing out her candles and getting cake pushed in her face, lol. I knew I wanted to stick in the family of pinks and yellows. They are some of the colors that say happy to me. I laid out all my pieces where I wanted them, to see if I like the set up, I thought there was a little to much white at the top of my layout so I decided to pull out some of my watercolors and play with the colors where I was going to add my photos and its layers.

 

I added different layers behind my photo strip and then popped it up on foam adhesive and placed it where I had added the watercolor. I moved to the bottom of my layout and started layering the papers, lables and such, until I was happy with it and then it was time to pull out my pretties from this months release!

 

I had cut my cupcakes out of some of the bits and pieces that were left in a mix of my collections and in my color scheme and assembled them. This it where I have fun! I mean, dont get me wrong, I love to add layers and play with watercolor, but I love adding all the pretty embellishments too!

 

I tucked some of the cute little cupcakes here and there in my layers at the bottom of my layout, followed by flowers and some stickers too. I thought the cupcakes represented the celebration just right! 

Thank you for stopping by to see what I made today, make sure to head to the rest of the girls blogs too and see what everyone else has made with these cute stamps and dies!

Paper Sweeties August 2019 New Release Sneak Peeks!

Good morning everyone!!

Sarah here this morning to share with you a sneak peek of this months stamps and sweet cuts. They were perfect for me this month! My youngest turned 3 this month and the cute little cupcakes are just fantastic!

 

I thought I would share my mini album cover with yall today. I pulled an old crate paper collection out of my stash, it was already birthday themed so I thought it was appropriate and cute. 

 

 I pulled some of the flowers from the ephemera and used then to cut out parts of my cupcakes. This way there were added in sparkles and pretty patterned papers there too. I only added three of these cute cupcakes to the cover because that's how old she turned so I wanted to keep it there. On top of that, the cover was kind of small. 

 

I thought it would be cute to use the cake platter, so I placed 2 of my cupcakes there and added the number 3 on top, this way it was front and center. I added my title but at this point hadn't put my 3rd cupcake down and decided I wanted to. So I added another to the bottom right of my album cover. 

I think these little stamps and sweet cuts are fantastic and have been playing with them and cant wait to share more over the next couple of days with yall! make sure to stop back by and see what else I've come up with!

And make sure to head over and check out the Paper Sweeties shop and the rest of the girls blogs and see what they have created as well!!

Paper Sweeties Plan your life series- August 2019

Good morning everyone!!

Its August 1st and I'm here to share with you my August 2019 monthly spread.

 

 I went quite simple this month. This month is sooooo busy!! Open houses for school, I have 3 different ones to go to in one night! A birthday party and a birthday, my schooling, travel and all kinds of stuff!! Lots of going this month, lol.

 

I added a few stickers here and there in my monthly spread, but the thing I liked the most was the planner stamps from Paper Sweeties. 

This month I used Business Basics, Everyday Basics, and the Vacation set as well.

 These stamps come in so handy and they look amazing. This month I stayed with a grey ink and added all the stamps I needed. I love how it makes things look uniform, then I can pop in with my pen and add the details of whats all happening through the week.

All the different planner stamps work so well together, and great along with any of the other stamps from the shop. Usually I do add other stamps, but like I said this month I kept it pretty simple.

Thanks so much for coming by and checking out what I've done and make sure to head over to the rest of the designers Paper Sweeties design team members blogs and check out all the fun stuff they have done!
