Hip Hopping into September....

I think that my levels of procrastination have hit an all new level...it's 11:45 pm and this post has to go live in 15 minutes...nothing like cutting it close. LOL! BUT I did make 2 projects for you (and there is actually a third that is almost complete on my stamp table,) so maybe that is okay.

My goal over the next couple of weeks is to give some inky love to some stamp kits that I received over the summer that I didn't have time to appreciate to their full capacity because of our move.

And that brings us to my first project today...a card featuring the stamp kit, Just Be You. I adore that bird image...isn't it gorgeous?!?

Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. Just Be You
*MME paper 
*Martha Stewart seam binding
*Creative Imaginations brad
*Prima flower
*Fresh Paint paper (red)
*Martha Stewart border punch
*StazOn Jet Black Ink pad
*journaling spot


************
My second project is a 12 x12 layout featuring some photos of my mom and Kat that were taken a couple of years ago that have been printed, but just never scrapbooked. That's the way that I roll...I felt the urge tonight to play with them. ;o)
There are a couple of different stamps on here. That big flower down in the lower right is one of the new Donna Downey stamps...I love the size and design of it. There are 4 flower stamps in this kit and they are all A-MAZING! I need to make some cards so that you can see the detail and words in the others....so gorgeous and such fabulous designs.


Most of the papers and embellishments here are MME's new lines.
supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. One Precious Life (journaling frame)
*Unity Stamp Co. Be Bold (flower)
*MME paper and embellishments
*Scenic Route alpha stickers
*Martha Stewart border punch
*MM ledger paper
*Palette Burnt umber inkpad
*brown seam binding
*button



And did you see this?!? OMG, LOVE!
