"Happy Day" Sneak Peek

Hey everybody! It is Andrea here, and I wanted to share with you a cool sneak peek at our next and newest kit/collection, "Happy Day."

This collection is filled with lovely flowers and butterflies, and cute kitties and little houses, and it's got some really awesome retro vibes with cool graphics like milkshakes and rotary phones and fun mod prints.  The color scheme for the collection is pinks and reds and purples and teals.  The patterns range from lovely and classic to fresh and bold.  As always, this Fairytale Club kit is inspired by some of my favorite fairytales, and of course also by my favorite motto, "Live your life as a fairytale."  "Happy Day" is definitely a reflection of this attittude and a reminder that even during the hardest of times, with a little bit of magic, love, and creativity, a happy day is just around the corner.

P.S. I just want to say how much I appreciate everyone's support and patience lately as I continue to struggle with my health problems.  We are, of course, trying our best to get things back on a more regular schedule, but it may take a little bit longer than we had originally thought.  I really hope that you all enjoy "Happy Day," and I can't wait to see all the beautiful things you make with it.  Hugs to everybody out there!  Watch for the full reveal - it will be coming soon!

Adding Embroidery to Project Life with Carrie

Hello Everybody!  It's Carrie, and today I have a spread in my Project Life album about these amazing puzzles I recently found.  They are by Thomas Kinkade and are Disney themed!!  Eeek!  Any other puzzle lovers out there?!? Lol ; )

Everything on these two 6x12 pages (apart from the photos) is from the Everyday Wishes Kit, and I just love how the colors compliment my Princess & The Frog puzzle!

For the two 3x4" journal cards, I cut this cute rainbow paper in half and found matching embroidery thread for each color of the rainbow.  Then I found these three hearts from the die-cut pack and popped them up near their matching colors.

The black and white "today" is from another die-cut pack of all scripted words.  These are one of my favorite products in the whole kit!  I personally think the addition of black really pulls a spread together.  Anyways, I popped the "today" up since this was the day I finished my first Thomas Kinkade Disney puzzle : )

I decided to add my journaling on the opposite page, and typed directly onto some patterned paper using my typewriter.  I rolled the pink paper a bit and popped up the top edge for added interest.  Also, there are lots of dark pink lines on this same strip of paper, and decided to use my paper trimmer to cut along two of the lines creating a flap so I could tuck my photo into it.

As a final touch for this spread I made another flap in the strip of paper to tuck in the bottom of my photo to match the top.  Then, I added a small pink and white journaling spot from one of the cut apart sheets and layered a popped up purple ticket.  I knew that I wanted to add embroidery on this page as well, so I decided to add purple thread to the ticket.....and that's it!

I hope you found a little inspiration today.  Happy February 15th to you!
