ooo la la… so many updates!


First I have to start off with these awesome layouts done by the fabulous MaraMay! She has a great style and I loved the way she incorporated a little of “Elle’s Studio” products into her layouts! Check out her blog and let her know “she rocks!”

If you have some layouts that use Elle’s Studio products, I’d love to see them too! In the future, hopefully sometime soon, I’m planning on doing a “gallery.” I’m currently trying to figure out what the best way to go about this would be, so if you have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them!!

And… I got some scrapin‘ time in this weekend! My sister and her husband found this cute kitten and gave it a great home! She is sooo tiny! They named her Precious, sooooo sweet!

Check out my NEW calendar tags I Incorporated into the layout! These are new in my etsy shop and are a great way to mark a special day (in the layout above I marked the day they found the kitten) or you can even add them to a card to mark someones birthday, anniversary, etc. Super fun! They come in black and white….

And… COLOR!! I’m in love with these color ones, so bright and fun! I’m totally diggin‘ bright colors right now!

And last, but not least! I just (well.. last week sometime) signed up over at SIS! There is SO much talent over there that I was a little embarrassed to post my layout! I just love it over there and wish I could spend all day/night surfin‘ around. So, if you’re over there, say “Hi” or add me to your favs so I can add you back! Can’t wait!! EDIT: I should mention my member log in name over there is “elle”!

my new love…

My mom brought these home the other day from one of her shopping trips. These are my favorite shoes right now… and they may have started me off with a new collection because when I were them, they make me want MORE!!!!!

ZingBOOM kits for sale!

ZingBOOM kits are up and this month the “Juicy” kit includes my bird tags, printed in teal! Currently, this is the only place to find them in teal, so head on over there and check them out. The kit looks like super fun with tons of cool stuff in it.

Also, the add-on looks awesome!

Also, I wanted to say a HUGE “Thank You!!!” to everyone who has been stopping by and leaving comments! I love reading them and checking out your blogs too!

ooo butterflies!! … happy birthday mom!



Today was a great day! I treated myself to the day off – I’ve been working a lot of hours lately, so I decided it was time to have a break! I was planning on scrapin‘ all day but time just flew and by the time I was done catching up with everything I have been pushing off, I just had time to wrap my mom’s birthday present! I think that the presentation is just as important as the gift inside and I hope she likes it! I used the Martha Stewart template that has been floating around and some Hambly rub-ons. I just LOVE how they turned out! So much fun!!! I need to take Monday’s off more often 🙂 haha… I WISH!

so this would explain…


So this would explain the candy corn and buttons! I know, “Halloween already?” but… it’s right around the corner!! And I’ve had this button card idea in my head for awhile and finally decided to go for it! And it turned out so cute, I love them! I had to make a bunch for me first 🙂

So they are all in the shop now… and another new item not pictured here, mini notebook paper!

sara bareilles rocks my socks


I went to see if there was any new music on itunes, and Sara was in the top 10, so I listened to the 30 sec clips. She’s pretty cool! And her entire album was only like 6.99 (or maybe 7.99, I can’t remember…). AND check out the pdf booklet that comes with it, awesome pics and colors. LOVE IT! Go download it 🙂 My favorite song is “Gravity,” I’m just a sucker for piano!
