Lots to show you and talk about this month – it’s Stash Bash time!

stashbashWhat is Stash Bash? It’s a week-long event designed to help scrapbookers use up, declutter, and organize their traditional and digital supply stashes. Registration is open now and the event opens on July 14. As well, there’s a special promotion to get a three-month membership with Stash Bash registration and that includes a lifetime discounted rate!

Go now, run, I’ll wait…..

All signed up? Good – you’ll love it!

On to the memberships materials for July. I actually made three LO’s, that’s how good this month was! First up, my Story Starter LO (this one made the cover of this month’s Spark magazine!):

The horse is a diecut from a Dear Lizzy pack and it was perfect for this:

I like see-through elements so a lot of pieces were glued on top of the pockets:

Don’t forget to go to my sidebar and check out the rest of the Creative Team – they do such amazing work every month! And go sign up for Stash Bash – it’s totally worth it!

Cheers!

Happy Canada Day friends! I hope you are all having a wonderful and relaxing day celebrating with family and friends!

forget-me-nots

This is a bittersweet day for my fellow Newfoundlanders as it is also Memorial Day for us, commemorating the loss at Beaumont-Hamel of 90% of the Newfoundland Regiment in WW1.

Party hard today, and take a moment to remember.
