NEW52-Week48, NEW blog love

Okay, so this one is a little bit of a cheating.  November quickly came to an end and December has been non-stop.  So NEW for week 48 is a blog written by Lauren Reid (shameless advertising here), One Story Down.  I accidentally came across this blog in November during Lauren's big Holiday Kick-Off Bash where she had tons of challenges and prizes.  After this I was hooked.  Why am I sharing this with all of you now, because she continues to inspire me with her articles on photography, gallery pretties, and scrapper spotlight.  My favorite are the scrapper spotlights because they are usually accompanied with a free template.  I actually got a lot of inspiration from paper scrapper, Kelly Noel.  Love this sketch here

and created this page using Lauren's kit, Call Me, available at The Daily Digi (December).

Another feature on One Story Down is "Girl vs. Scrap."  Here is the December challenge, please play along.  You have until Dec. 31st.

Here is my page:

Here is another page that I created using papers from Merriment and Page Rims 3 (again shameless advertising).

Here are some other layouts completed for Design House Digital.  I loved the chevron inspired look so I did this using Robyn's Vintage Holiday and Gennifer's Toolbox Mists Vol. 7 and Toolbox Action vol. 2, InstaAwesome frames.

I also had 2 hours to devote to a speed scrap last night and did this page using mostly Robyn's Fun and Festive papers.  I loved the & mist, I had to use it although my layout would be better titled "kissing cousins."

Although I am no longer a decorator for Design House Digital, I still enjoy using their products and promoting their designers.  They are a small store with a huge heart.  Sorry no time for Oscraps this week, maybe next week.  I still have some kits from Paislee Press that are still unused.  I already have my NEW for 49 already photographed so be on the look out for that in the next few days.  I also have tons of photos to share from a girl's tea with Santa.
