Unity Blog Hop 07.24.14!

Welcome to my spot on the hop!  Our summer is winding down and soon school will begin. How has your summer been rolling along?  I can’t believe how fast the time just flies by. We’ve really been enjoying these {lazy} weeks of Summer 2014.

kiss 40

This past July, me and my daughter, Brandi, got to see the greatest rock show this summer—KISS’s 40-Year Anniversary Tour with Def Leppard opening for them. I’m a fan of both bands, but I’ve been a fan of KISS since I was in the second grade. The tickets were my birthday present from Brandi earlier this year. What a SURPRISE! We couldn’t wait to go! She’s the best-est and we had a great time rocking the night away together. It was a blast seeing KISS for the first time AND it was Brandi’s first time, too.

I thought this layout would be the perfect reason to use this month’s SMAK kit which is full of BIG numbers as well as smaller numbers to use for anniversaries, birthdays, etc. The BIG 4 and 0 and “years” was used from the kit below on the layout above.

JULY-2014-SMAK-ALL-IN-THE-NUMBERS

I also used the hashtag #WISHBIG from this month’s sentiment kit below.

theperfectday

Onto getting some more scrapping done . . . I couldn’t resist using the camera with a sentiment from this month’s KOM on this layout of Brandi and her buds goofing around during a road trip to Yosemite.  She really does give me many reasons to smile . . .

JULY-2014-BEAUTIFUL-INSIDE-AND-OUT

I also used the hashtag #theperfectday from the Hashtag Kit below. I’ve been using this kit A LOT lately.

Unity Blog Hop 07.10.14!

We’re hopping along on this HOT July day with some NEW Itty-Bitty stamp sets AND there’s a new Unity {be inspired} Challenge which includes an inspiration color photo, a card sketch, and a scrapbook layout sketch! 

Let’s start with a layout I made using this month’s scrapbook layout sketch as inspiration from the {be inspired} challenge.9 amazing years This picture of me and my husband, Rodney, was taken on our wedding day. Saturday will be our nine-year wedding anniversary. I was feeling very sentimental about the date and thought I’d reminisce about our kiss all over again. Rodney has been the best-est husband and friend to me. He’s kind-hearted, funny, forgiving, generous, talented, crazy, laid-back, and is never irritated or frustrated with the craziness I seem to thrive from--that’s saying a lot--trust me!  He takes good care of me. On any given day, he’s interested in my theories and opinions and makes me giggle—that’s important.  Best of all, I know my husband has my back and what we have is a loving partnership with an amazing family. That doesn’t mean I always agree with him AND I know he doesn’t agree with me either, but we respect each other. I’m proud of him. He’s my one and only.

Okay, enough of the mushiness! G-ROSS!

On the above layout, I used the new sentiment kit, Wish with Your Heart; this month’s SMAK Kit, All in the Numbers; the Hashtag kit that debuted last month, and one of the new Itty-Bitty sets you could get FREE just for SHOPPING through the weekend at Unity.10410090_10203319448260351_3729922152608137720_n JULY-2014-SMAK-ALL-IN-THE-NUMBERSUK-698A-HASHTAG-KIT10402046_10154353723505475_5594663838400067891_nI also was inspired to get busy making a card using the card sketch from this month’s {be inspired} challenge.wish you were hereOn the above card I used this month’s Layers of Life Kit, Becoming Who I Am; the new sentiment kit (preview above), and the flowers are from this month’s Kit of the Month, Beautiful – Inside and Out.BECOMING-WHO-I-AM1 JULY-2014-BEAUTIFUL-INSIDE-AND-OUT AND REMEMBER:

I was in the mood to just SCRAP a couple of recent photos that caught my attention. When the mood strikes, scrapping happens. I LOVE it when that happens.amazing possibility This is a layout using a picture of my daughter on her recent trip to Yosemite. She amazes me, what can I say? I love hanging out with her and learning how she experiences HER life. She’s SUPER cool.

Again, I used this month’s Kit of the Month (preview above), the Hashtag kit (preview above), and one of the NEW Itty-Bitty stamp sets you can get for FREE just for shopping Unity this weekend!Jake selfie This is the last one—I PROMISE! 

When your children become adults and fly from the coop, especially sons, you just don’t hear from them as much as you’d like to. Living their life just gets in the way. Harshly put, but it’s the truth. This is my son, Jake, who I rarely get pictures of anymore—he’s just SUPER busy living his life and I’m so proud he’s doing just that.  A couple of weeks ago, he posted this selfie on Instagram/Facebook and I couldn’t have been happier!  He’s wearing his new suit at work and he’s SO handsome!

On this layout, I used the new Layers of Life kit (preview above), the new sentiment kit (preview above), and the Gina & Me stamp set that debuted last month.135476_10154156707655475_7697954632968425487_o Thank you all so much for spending your time perusing my creations and leaving me such positive comments during the hops.
