She also used Prima Flowers & Bling, Tim Holtz Inks, MS Punch, her Cricut, Webster's Pages Trim and more from her stash! Simply amazing and very inspiring!

I just prefer short weeks!

Good Tuesday morning! I think I got spoiled by the short week last week! LOL!!! I just had one of "those days" yesterday! You all know what I'm talking about... everyone has had at least one of "those days" in their lifetime!

We've got some great Tuesday inspiration for you! Designer Teri Berrios has recently had a new addition to her family. Take a look:

'Puppy Layout' by Teri Berrios

Meet Cutie - the newest member of the Berrios family! I just love everything about this layout! I'm, of course, drawn to the bright, cheerful colors in the Basic Grey Max & Whiskers collection! But, check out that "frame!" I love how Teri peeled back the papers to expose the picture of her daughter and their new puppy!


Prima Flowers and Bling - what's not to love?


Teri made her own brads with the Imaginisce i-Top.


Love that frame - I'm "lifting" this idea!


Basic Grey Max & Whiskers Epoxy Stickers! Too cute and perfect on Teri's layout! For more detail and info on this fantastic layout be sure to check out our gallery and Teri's blog! Great work, Teri!

We've got a busy week and now I'm a day behind! Stay-tuned this week for more great inspiration and new products Coming Soon to the store!

Happy Crafting!

One collection, two ways to use it!

Greetings and happy Wednesday! The week is half-over and my favorite day is on the horizon!

Today we are going to focus on the fun Basic Grey Max & Whiskers collection! I love how versatile it is! If you have pets, this is the perfect collection for you! The bright, bold colors and whimsical animal prints will look great on any pet project! Don't have pets? Use the back of the papers! I love the color palette of this collection! It's so festive and could be used for birthday's and other fun celebrations! I know, I know... I'm getting to the pictures already!

Designer Nanne Harry made this fun mini-album for her friends little Jack Russell. I love all of Nanne's mini-albums, but this one is so fun and loaded with spots for journaling and pictures. Nanne used the front and back of the papers for this album. Take a look:

How fun is this little album? Nanne always creates such nice projects! Her attention to detail really makes her projects come to life!

I love the reds, golds and oranges of this collection. I made this gift set using the backs of the papers! This set could easily be used for a birthday celebration or a thank you! Take a look:

I did add the fussy-cut picture of the cat and dog from Dakota to this card. I thought it worked well with my sentiment!

Can you believe these projects came from the same collection? They have a completely different feel, that is what makes the Max & Whiskers collection so versatile!
