There is something incredible about finishing a project you have been working on for an entire year. I have designed two coordinating monthly memories sets every month this year and ended up with a collection that I am very proud of and know will be useful for years to come. I used the same extensive color palette throughout the year, so the kits and the entire Month of Memories line of products are easily mixed and matched with each other. It was a very ambitious project, and I'm happy to be on this side of it now. Lol!

I usually release my new collections at the end of the work week, and I had this one all ready to go last week, but I had several health issues pile up on me all at once. The good news is that I’m doing a little better, and I have some super fun designs to share with you!

I’ll be recording a new video tutorial to go with this collection and also including a freebie add-on in my next newsletter, so be sure you are subscribed!

National Scrapbook Day is on Saturday and I have 6 new items in the shop and they are super colorful and fun. I love the theme of photography and Instagram is my happy place. These are so versatile and I know I will be using them a lot.

I had so much fun designing the baby collection, and I knew I needed to add a whole lot more to cover pregnancy and more baby memories. I’ve been surprised at how hard it is to find these types of designs for scrapbooking. I’m excited that the expecting cards and 40 weeks cards also come in transparent background.png files so they can be used as stamps as well.

As I’m getting ready to become a Grandma for the first time, I have to admit that a lot of my thoughts are centered on babies. We are all pretty excited around here and can’t wait to meet our grandson in early August!

Weather is such a big part of our lives. The weather often dictates what type of activities we can participate in and the setting for so many events. One of the things I'm most excited about with my Monthly Memories designs is how easy it is to add themed pieces that coordinate with the entire collection.

As I mentioned in my last post, I’m really working on adding more designs and tools to help myself and others document monthly memories. These also are great for daily, weekly, or any type of scrapbooking. I’m excited to share them with you! I also have a brand new free download for you so be sure to check out the entire post.

(And if you like free stuff, I’ll be including another gift in my newsletter so be sure you are signed up!)

Do you ever have a big idea that keeps going and going? That’s what my design brain has been doing lately - just pumping out the ideas! I’m working on a bigger (and yet more simple) approach to my monthly roundups and suddenly, a brand new collection came to life. So fun!

I love the traditions that come with the holiday season. December has lots of memory making opportunities and this new collection will help you document all of the special moments that make this time of year extra special.
