Hi everyone!
Family photo night is here! I’ll let you know how it goes. Amber is definitely not feeling 100% and I am keeping her home. She is still active, so I’m holding out hope that she just needs the day of rest and fluids, then by days end will be back to her usual self (I know! I’m overly optimistic about this!). I have been sucking down Vegetable Juice and Naked (that is the brand!) Fruit Juice to try and keep myself healthy. My kids don’t really like either so it is so hard to help booth their immunity this time of year. It’s really yummy and filling 😀 Helps me get all my fruits/veggies in.
Note to anyone who ordered from my Etsy Shop: All orders shipped via Priority yesterday morning! So you should get them tomorrow 😀 Unless you are in another Country! I’ll be updating again soon, and I will keep you posted.
Well here we are at day two of almost a week-long countdown peeks at All That Scraps! There are a total of 7 sets releasing for November 2nd. So I’m sure you can guess we have ALL been busy. Make sure you check the BLOG daily for your chance to win the set that is being shown, and for even more ideas from our Design Team!
Today we are peeking one of my favorite collections: Swiss Pixies!!
This is such a cute line of images that Christine has perfected. I love them. There are 3 this month. I was able to get 2 samples done.
I call this one BRR!
I think she is beyond cute, and I had so much fun coloring her!
These colors are FAB: Black, Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Spring Rain and White. Definitely a cool wintery combo. Beats the traditional colors 😀
I airbrushed my background sky. If you are on the fence about the Copic Airbrush system-GO FOR IT! It is so fun! I would recommend getting additional air-cans as the started kit doesn’t last long at all. Especially while you play and get use to the system.
I used my singlo white gel pen to make snowflakes. I had some tinsel like ribbon that I chose to use for my SNOWY ground. Then the silver snowflakes are table confetti that I found at Target last year! Its my FAVE use of snowflakes! They are so shimmery and cool, and there is 4 sizes! Love it.
Now we have my 2nd card-much more simple.
Sweet Pixie
I love this color combination: Melon Mambo, Plum Pudding, Kraft & White.
I kept this one simple. She is so cute on her own. I just colored then cut her out. Add a pompom to her hat.
I did stamp some snowflakes on the white layer and sprinkled on some pale purple/pink glitter (practically unseen here). This can now be an ANYTIME kind of card. I may stamp a sentiment inside when it is time to send this to someone. I know what you are thinking!! You all know I rarely ever even send cards! Its like the shoemakers family has no shoes! My family doesn’t get cards! Except for the holidays, because I do make all my gifts. I hope it sort of makes up for it. I get so forgetful, then when I do recall its so late! Is it bad that I make cards and gifts JUST because I enjoy it, and NOT with the intent to actually send them?! I will say I have NEVER bought a SINLE card since I began stamping 5 years ago, so that is good. I will pull one out of my stash ina hurry. but prefer to MAKE one special for each person when I DO actually send something! I like to have them in mind 😀
Well that is all the chatter for me today. I hope you are looking forward to these!
HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!!! There is a WINTER KIT available. LIMITED TIME (Ends tomorrow) so CHECK THIS OUT!
Till tomorrow

this is just lovely, i wonder to make cute things like this someday. rgds, dalys
really cute cards! We love naked juice, too. My kids like it, but if yours won’t drink it try mixing it with orange juice. The immunity boost drinks from DanActive seem to help, too. (my son Loren call them smoothies-lol) I just got some yesterday at Target near the activia yogurt.
Oh I hope your daughter feels better soon. My youngest is now sick too. It’s that time of year. Your cards as usual are beautiful.
Lovely!!!!!
Lauren both of these are just over the top cute, but the first one is my fav. I especially love the tinsel you used for snow on the ground! So creative you are girl!
Adorable! I hope everyone is feeling 100% soon!

Hi Lauren,
I blog-stalk you all the time and I have to say that I love the new hair color! (Coming from the only brunette – natural or otherwise – for a long time in my hubby’s family.) I love coloring my hair and constanly go from dark in the winter to lighter in the summer.
Also love your work! Really wish that I could juggle things a lot better to get stuff done. Your family, work and just this blog is a really great inspiration for me. Keep up the good work and best wishes out to you and your kiddies this flu-ridden season.

Oh, these are so cute!! I don’t know how you keep up with all that you do, know wonder you don’t always remember to send a card on time.
Hope Amber is feeling much better soon!! Take care.
They are both beyond CUTE. But you’re right – the top one is my favouite too – must be the snow and the colors. Hope A is feeling better soon. Here everyone always drink varm, rich, red (well nearly purple) elderberry juice diluted with water with a few drops of lemon and honey every winter. SHould be GOOD for you and tastes nice too.
I love those new stamps from All That Scraps. I can’t wait to see them all.
xoxo, Christine
As always, great work! I LOVE that tinsel stuff for snow. I’m so casing that idea!
Love those little girls from All that Scraps.
And your ideas are always tops!
Hope your little one feels better soon. Be careful, pneumonia is going around here as well as that FLU.

Oh I adore the Naked juices. So yummy without being packed full of sugar. I wish other juice makers would take notice!
I hope Amber perks up for the Photos!

I love the little pixies especially the one in blue! Your hair looks amazing I think that the darker color really brings out your eyes. Don’t go back to blonde, your hair looks amazing the color it is right now.
Your cards are totally adorable!! I LOVE these Swiss Pixies too!!! Love the idea of adding stripes to the scarf!!! CUTENESS!
These are great modern Christmas Cards – I especially like “Brr” and the way you’ve done the snow on the ground.
These cards are adorable Lauren, love the Swiss Pixies – too cute!
Thanks for sharing.
