Hello everyone! I have more good news to share, I am now a part of the Color Cast Designs Design Team!

I am extremely excited to be a part of such a talented group of ladies and I cannot wait to start incorporating some of Color Cast Designs into my memory keeping! This year just keeps getting better and better!

With that being said, here are my last two Vegas layouts. What an awesome trip we had! I’m so happy I took all these pictures to create these layouts. The whole reason of the trip was to see George Strait and Kasey Musgraves in concert.

For this layout I used Becky Higgins Design H Pocket Pages. I also used inserts from the Confetti Digital Edition and Stampin’ Up Everyday Adventure Digital Edition. One of my favorite things to do for concert layouts is to print out the set list. You want to remember the songs you jammed out to, right? Also, if you look below, you’ll notice we scored some bad-ass seats because I was able to walk away with guitar picks from each artist, and oh yeah, George and I had a moment… not really, he just touched my hand as he walked towards the stage. It’s definitely a moment in my book!

For my second layout, I decided to do some stamping. I haven’t stamped as much as I usually do just because I’ve been lazy. Hey, it happens! I used my Kellie Stamps for the stamping and a white tag to do some journaling. I also used the 4×6 insert from the Stampin’ Up Hello Lovely Digital Edition (LOVE this kit!!!) .

Here is a before and after of the Prince picture:

I did my editing in Lightroom and then ordered a 6×12 picture from Persnickety Prints, I have been so impressed with all my pictures that I order from there!

Believe it or not I still have more happy news to share, but that will be later! I hope you guys enjoyed my layouts, see you next time!

Hello everyone! I haven’t been that great about keeping up with my blog this month but I have actually been creatively busy, so I’m going to blame it on not having internet, STILL!!! I have been working on a couple of things and I can’t wait to share very soon! (Seriously cannot wait!) (Extremely excited!)

Today I am sharing two new Project Life layouts from our Vegas trip. We had such a blast on this trip and I’m happy I finally was able to document it!

For my first layout, I used Becky Higgins Design H and 6×12 pocket pages. I also used a couple of inserts from the Fine & Dandy Digital Edition. You guys know I always include black & white inserts to my layouts but I wanted to stay away from that because these pictures are so bright and colorful. It’s always good to change it up, right?

I have been using the picture of New York, New York for a lot of examples on how I like to edit my photos and it was nice to finally put it in my album. I used Christine Herrin’s Ready Jet Set Digital Stamps for an extra touch on that photo. You can see a before and after of that picture here.

I used the same pocket pages for my second layout. I added a stamp from Kellie Stamps and journaling on a white tag. For the inserts, I used a couple of 3×4 filler cards from Stampin Up Moments Like These Digital Edition and Project 52 2016 Digital Edition (had to throw some black & white in there!) To get the poker chips on the inserts, I used Scotch Permanent Mounting Squares.

I hope you guys enjoyed this quick post, I promise not to take too long for the next one!

Hey guys! As of right now I’m still working on Project Life layouts from APRIL! We’re already in August and I’m not done documenting April. Either time is flying by too fast or I’m lazy as hell. It could also be that I took too many awesome pics that month (Vegas!). Check out a couple of more April layouts below, and no these are not the last ones for that month!

For this layout I used Design I and Design H pocket pages from Becky Higgins. I also used the Everyday Edition Core Kit. For the 4×4 pockets I just grabbed some of my favorite 4×6 inserts from the kit and trimmed them down.

On this layout I used only Design H pocket pages and I used inserts from the Wander Edition Digital Kit and Everyday Edition Paper Pad.

I ordered a stamp set from Christine Herrin a while back and this card was included in the package and I’m so glad I kept it because it was perfect for this layout. Yay freebies!
I’m seriously trying to catch up because I have other projects I’m working on and I can’t wait to share those with you! Soon!

Hey guys! I started working on a little side project but never got around to posting about it until now. I wanted to create a free download of pocket page inserts just for fun. This was a fun way for me to get creative and kind of challenge myself with something new. I really hope you guys like these downloads and I would love it if you share with me any projects you do incorporating any of these inserts!

A little tidbit about me is that I’m obsessed with music so of course I knew I wanted to do something that involved lyrics (see if you can guess the songs). I’m a sucker for stamps, inserts, or embellishments that have lyrics on them so this was a no-brainer for me.

Project Life: April ’16

Diana Sanchez2 Comments

Happy Fourth of July! I have been MIA this past month but by now you guys know my situation. I’m trying to look at the bright side though, instead of always being on my computer in the other room surfing the net, now I’m spending more time with my family – on my phone surfing the net. It’s all on how we look at things!

I should be posting my June Top 5 but because my last post was my May Top 5, I figured I should post some Project Life first.

For my first layout, I used the Becky Higgin’s Project 52 2016 Calendars Digital Kit again for my monthly cover and I also used the Project 52 2016 Digital Kit. I used my fuse tool for both pages, on the left page I fused the bottom of a Design H page (made a 4×6 into two 3×4). I also took a 6×12, the right page, and fused it into thirds to fit three 4×6 photos. This isn’t a very happy layout because it covers the ducks leaving and my childhood home going up on the market. Sad stuff, but it’s something important to me and as hard as the beginning of April was, that’s something I will want to remember.

On my second layout I decided to use the Wander Kit. I’ve used this kit before but I just love Christine Herrin’s style and I thought it went perfect with these pictures as well. The pictures on this layout are from the Stanton Old Sorehead Trade Days, something us West Texans look forward to three times a year. It’s a big craft/trade show with awesome food and the best freaking beef fajita burritos. Ever. Period. The end. In all the land.

I can’t wait to blog about the rest of April because I will be documenting about moving and going to Vegas! I’m just hoping we will be bestowed the privilege of high-speed internet very, very soon. Fingers crossed… and at this point my legs, arms, and eyes are crossed as well.
