Elle's Studio Sketch Thursday

I took off work all week, so I have been scrapbooking alot. I am currently working on my Christmas mini album.  I really liked this sketch over at Elle's Studio, so I decided to play along.

This is a 7x9" page that is going in my Studio Calico Handbook Frame Album.

I will show all of my pages/album when it is completed. (I have an aunt that is getting pretty impatient with me. lol... she wants to see the finished product)

Kelly Purkey DD kit and Rhonna's digital designs. The pin is from JCPenney's. (the freebies they have been giving away when you buy stuff)

girls night IN!

Well, the 'trio' (aka K, A, and me) did girls night in last night. It was supposed to be a True Blood PJ party ... with appetizers and wine.

We had it all ...except the True Blood. The 3 of us could not quit yakking away on K's patio about dating, boys, food, boys, work, boys... oh.. did I mention boys? lol So, yeah...we never made it into the living room to have a TB marathon. Oh well. A good time was had by all!

We took some fun Instax minis. the upper left corner photo.. (that looks like nothing).. well, it's the top of K's cabinets. Nothing much to see there.. I just happened to be holding my Instax when I was doing my 'what what' dance and my trigger finger got happy. ha! It was hilarious! 

Now on to some inspiration;

out with the old, in with Kelly Purkey

seriously?? this girl has my heart!! I LOVE the "new look" of Christmas. Bold, fun, trendy colors and designs. I HAD to dig deep into my pockets to preorder this bada@@ kit! I do not make December Daily's. But, I do create a mini album after Christmas, documenting the week I get to spend with my family.

How fun does that look?? So excited!

long time, no scrap

So, my gf and I participated in an all day crop yesterday. This girl was miss productivity! I completed my Halloween 2012 album.

I used Rhonna Design's Spooky and Spooky Junque. I like buying the bundles. The album covers are from 7Gypsies.

6 of us went to the Lemp Mansion Halloween Bash. It was so much fun! Once you bought your ticket, everything that night was free. Appetizer buffets, multiple open bars, 3 live bands throughout the mansion. We had such a great time!

The little photos are from my Fuji Instax Mini 25. It instantly prints credit-sized photos. I love that thing. I thought it would be fun to take 'polaroids' all night. 

What have you been working on lately?

Fashion 5-0

Fashion 5-0 by citysingle featuring forever 21

The previous Fashion 5-0 from the other day was my EXACT outfit/pieces (except for the earrings).
I had a harder time finding the exact dress from the above outfit I wore yesterday. However!! I WAS able to get a clear photo this time of me wearing said outfit.

The dress is by MNG at JcPenney.

I made the necklace a couple of years ago. Miche bag is the same in the polyvore. And the rose gold watch I got from my gf, Michelle. She is the owner and creator of Deep South Gypsies. The white cardigan has been one of my favorite purchases. It's light and airy and I love the way it hangs on me. I got it from a new store in the south county mall, Francesca's.  Boots are the same from the other day and in polyvore. (payless, baby!)

I have REALLY been enjoying creating these Fashion 5-0 posts. I hope you are enjoying them, as well!
