The best thing about memories is making them!

Heat Wave

We in the Pacific Northwest were hit with extreme temperatures over the last week, which is very unusual for our area.  In my backyard it was in the mid-forties Celsius (over 100F)!  I spent my days going between the pool, and the AC indoors.  Our poor horses were so hot that I was hosing them off at regular intervals, which they loved.  Thankfully we do have one area behind our barn that stays fairly shady and I was able to keep them there for the most part.  I love the sunshine and heat, but that was a bit much!

My latest release, Heat Wave, carried on with the theme.  Full of summer things like fans, popsicles, and cold drinks, you definitely be able to scrap those hot summer days!

One last thing… Sweet Shoppe is having a sale!  The Scrap It Summer Sale gets you 40% off storewide, today through the 5th.  Woo Hoo!!!

Stay Cool!

Canada D’Eh

Happy Canada Day!  (And a Happy Independence Day to my American friends!)  Canada D’Eh is a fun collection featuring the iconic Hudson Bay Company colours mixed with a bit of tongue-in-cheek humour.  No, we don’t really wear party tuques (pronounced like the O sound in tooth) but we do love our country and celebrate Canada Day on July 1st…. we’re just a little bit quieter about our patriotism than our friends to the south.  With plenty of red and white (and blue!) elements, this kit should have enough versatility to work for all sorts of pages, not just the Canadian ones!

With such bright colours I felt like we needed a bit of a balance of plain, simple papers.  And who doesn’t love polka-dot papers anyway?  Enjoy!!

Sorry, this is retired

Lake Life

There’s just nothing like a beautiful sunny day at the water’s edge.  Whether you love to fish or just float, the lake is definitely a place to go for some fun and relaxation.  We spend a lot of time each summer in British Columbia’s southern interior, where there are many many gorgeous lakes to be found.  (All surrounded by amazing wineries… bonus!)  We camp and swim and drink wine… my idea of paradise!!!

Beauty in Bloom

I just love this time of year!  It’s getting sunny and warm, and my flowers are beginning to bloom.  My peonies are getting ready to burst forth in a riot of beautiful pinks and white.  They’re my absolute favourite flowers of all!  Beauty in Bloom captures all the gorgeousness of a garden in full flower, with the soft watercolours that are reminiscent of a Monet-style painting.

A Sunshiny Day

Hello and happy Friday!  I hope you’re not too scrapped out from last weekend’s iNSD activities.  I’m coming to you as this week’s Featured Designer at Sweet Shoppe.  With a $10 purchase you can get my latest kit FREE!  Who doesn’t love free, really?  If you’re curious, you can read a little bit about me HERE in my interview.

I’ve been spending more and more time outside now that the sun is shining again in my corner of the world.  I just love this time of year when everything is blooming and the sun is out.  It just makes me happy! I thought it would be a perfect theme for my “Day” in our A Day to Remember series.

I have to say that since I started planning this kit I’ve had A Sunshiny Day by Charley Pride stuck in my head.  It’s a sweet song, but seriously… enough’s enough!  Check out the video and you too can get it stuck in your head!  You’re welcome!!!

This kit is packed full of flowers and greenery and other bits found in nature.  And of course there are extras that you can grab as well to round out your collection:
