New Petaloo

I've got a few Petaloo project to share with you today.


The first features Petaloo's gorgeous new Chantilly Collection.

I created this layout for a friend who just gave birth to her first child. I thought this was such a sweet photo of her little girl and with the tones in her skin I thought it would be perfect for this new line.
I just love the deep hues in these blooms and combined with rich, warm browns it's the perfect mix of fall colours!


Petaloo Products Used:

Flora Doodles Bristol Box Blend (Orange/Green/Brown/Red)
Chantilly Mixed Blossoms in Green
Chantilly Mixed Velvet Hydrangeas in Green

The second project I wanted to share with you all features Hydrangeas from Petaloo's Chantilly Collection. I wanted to create a project completely different than my first to showcase the versatility of these amazing products.

Blue Sky Holiday is a layout I created of my sister and I while vacationing in Hawaii last spring.

Just love the delicate sparkles on these blooms and the gorgeous earthy tones. These flowers pair wonderfully with Petaloo's Bristol Box Blends which I have also used on this layout.

What a different look you can achieve by adding some lighter papers and flowers!

Happy ThanksGiving!

What a wonderful weekend we've had so far! My husband has had 3 days off so lots of fun stuff to do together. The sun decided to bless us with its presence yesterday so we promptly headed to the pumpkin patch!


Kids had a blast searching for 'their' pumpkins...

Me and hubby.

Waiting on the rest of the crew. She was 'guarding' her pumpkin so nobody would take it... LOL.

We finished the day with a fantastic dinner at my mother in law's and will have one last turkey treat tonight with my family... (although my dad is doing the dinner this year and incorporating some interesting dishes to the menu... puffed tofu, edamame beans... um, yea... not complaining, just sayin') I told my mom it'd be in her best interests to 'leave for the day' or she'll be a total stress case - HA!

I'll be back a little later in the week to share some AWESOME stuff with you all! A fantastic G45 mini album and some Bo Bunny projects too!

NoteWorthy Projects

Hi all!! Happy Friday - cannot wait for the long weekend here in Canada. I'm lucky enough to be enjoying two Thanksgiving dinners - one at my mother in law's and one at my parents!! Yippie!

Wanted to share some Bo Bunny projects I created using the NoteWorthy Journal cards. These are so perfect for cards or mini albums - even layouts. Each collection comes with a coordinating paper pad.

Here's a card I made using the Olivia Line - love all the flowers and rich colours of this line. I framed the NoteWorthy Journal card with some patterned paper and there you go. Quick and simple.

The cards don't have to be limited to small spaces - I used them in my layout here to frame the photo.

Some of Bo Bunny'sgorgeous Petals and yummy chipboard!

Just love layering with these papers and embellies - everything coordinates so well - very easy to mix and match.

That's it for me today. Hoping to finish off a few layouts this weekend and enjoy some wonderful time with the family. Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends celebrating this weekend.
