Rain Drops

I am loving all the cloud paper the manufacturers are creating these days. The clouds also make good use of the epoxy teardrops I've had in my scrap collection for a couple years now. Paired with the clouds, they make the perfect rain scene. Here are some examples:

So the next time you have rainy day pictures to scrap, why not cut out some clouds or use cloud accents and place some epoxy teardrops under them to make the perfect rain clouds!

Transparency Tuesday!

Every month the design team creates pages with transparency from the Transparent touches store. Sometimes they are full 8.5x11 pages, journal spots, bracket blocks, or the fun ones that come in your kit. If you have never tried a transparency on your pages I suggest you check out all the fun options there are available for you in the store.

May 2011 DT Reveal-Kit #2

This month the May kit featured a great new line from My Minds Eye. Kit #2 is packed full of the boy Lime Twist papers and embellishments. To compliment the papers there's some fun chipboard embellishments from Basic Grey and some bright and colorful rub-ons from Kaiser Craft among other things. My favorite part is the 6x6 burlap frame. Enjoy your kit and check out what the design team came up with below.
