Just in case you were wondering…
The studio assistant is on the job on this dreary rainy Sunday. If you need something slept on and covered with cat hair … Fred is your man

Layout – Silly Hats
I managed to eek out another layout this week…working in bits of time between dinner prep and soccer pickup and finishing up in the morning after everyone left for school. I am really fortunate to have a “room of my own” where I can leave a layout or project out on my worktable and let things percolate for awhile… or until my Studio Assistant knocks things onto the ground.
This layout was for a class at BPC called Stashbusters Anonymous and week 1 was layouts to help use up your paper stash. I’m writing up a post now on de-stashing but wanted to share one of the layouts I did featuring chevrons … 1/2″ strips across the whole page…then I realized that my base paper was 12×13 not 12×12…needless to say there will be some trimming of the left side going on but that’s OK, it will only reinforce the asymmetry of the page.
And while I will take a formal portrait of the page when it’s all trimmed and adhered to a piece of card stock (the edges are curling up right now) I really kind of like messy slice of life photos that show some studio details too.
Enjoy and here’s to a beautiful spring weekend ahead and a joyous Easter tomorrow! What projects are you working on over the weekend?
layout – 9 Things about 9 Walter
Yes, I’ve been doing more memory keeping. I have notebooks full of ideas and stacks of supplies that I am committed to using up! I was reading Ali Edwards blog last week and she had made a layout detailing the things she loved about her home (instead of always thinking about what could be better….Of which I am completely guilty!!!) I decided to take her challenge and use a hand drawn grid, write out 5+things about my home and making a layout w no photos… Celebrating what we love about this house was definitely in order (2 1/2 yrs later!) AND I found the perfect use for this darling October Afternoon paper I have been hoarding for years! I love how it came out!!
Details… so much fun digging around my stash for goodies to fill up the grid!
Full layout here….I’m still working on my photography skills…bear with me!
And just in case you were wondering….
Yes, it’s Studio Assistant approved…. He has to sit on everything around here!
What projects have you been working on?
layout – Winter Share
Today’s layout is a digi-layout (I’m toggling back and forth between digi and paper lately…have a lot of supplies in each format to work through!) I’m featuring Little Feet Digital Designs April Freebie “Earth Day” created for the PixelScrapper blog hop. This beautiful mini-kit is available FREE from LFDD only through April 31 so get it while it’s hot, and there, and well…free. Click HERE for the link to LFDD blog. Of course, me being me I did not scrap with an “Earth Day” theme…I decided to showcase the photo I took when I brought home our December Share from Co-op, the last one for the season. Little miss you-know-who of course, has to inspect everything.
Enjoy and Hop on over to Little Feet Digital Designs and download this freebie kit before it’s all gone!

Project Life update…2013 !
Good morning everyone! One of my (many) to-do list items is to photograph and post my 2013 Project Life album. As of today, I am 3/4 toward that goal ! Head on over to my new and improved Project Life 2013 page and tell me what you think?! I have a master plan for the Memory Keeping portion of the blog which I am slowly working on, so more updates and revisions to come (so exciting!)
It’s sunny here in New England today and mild-y not so bitter cold …we’ll take it! Showers forecasted for the next few days so we will enjoy the sun as long as we have it! Have a terrific weekend everyone!
