Jennifer Wilson of Simple Scrapper has just opened the Simple Mini Books shop. I had the honor of creating a mini book documenting my grandmother’s life with the Everyday Sweetness 6×6 Scrapbook Kit. Be sure to check out the inspiration in the trailer – the kit lends itself to a wide variety of themes and styles!
Neat & Tangled Paper Pieced Quilt
I’m over at Neat & Tangled today with a paper-pieced quilt decor project using the cottage stamp from the Sweet Home set – head on over to check it out. You’ll also want to check out the newest addition in the store – the delightful Graveyard Shift stamp set.

This week’s CAS-ual Fridays challenge, sponsored by Neat & Tangled, is to create a Clean And Simple project that is black and white plus one color of your choice.
I’ve always liked the combination of red, black, and white, and the Lawn Fawn My Cup of Tea teapot looks so cheery stamped in red!
Supplies: Spellbinders label die, Divine Twine, Stampin’ Up black cardstock

Bittersweet Departure
Told the story of my eldest son’s return to college with a single-photo layout using a template from the Simple Scrapper Premium Membership September collection. I turned to Echo Park for some masculine-feeling papers and elements.
Supplies: Simple Scrapper Premium Membership Template; Echo Park For the Record 2 Documented; Echo Park Note to Self; Sahlin Studio Typeset Alphas No. 1; One Little Bird Pedal Pusher button; Slab Tall X font
Let’s Hang Out
I created another card for this week’s CAS-ual Fridays Challenge to use embossing on a card.
Fall is in the air and I’m totally drawn to the colors, motifs, and textures of the season. I wanted to have a little fun with the squirrel from the Paper Smooches “Hang Ups” set. He’s sitting in the tree, in the light of a harvest moon, taunting our golden retriever who is going wild these days with the increased squirrel activity!
Supplies: A Muse Studio embossing plate; Stampin’ Up cardstock; Stampin’ Up embossing powder; circle die; Basic Grey paper; October Afternoon button; May Arts twine
