Thought I would show you some more sneakie peakie of my Paper Niche Monthly kit for April. I can't say enough about this month's kit .... IT IS SOOOO GREAT!!!
Also I thought I would throw in a pic of our celebrity teacher Marah Johnson who is teaching at the Paper Niche for the weekend! I had to get a picture of us (LOL)
Now for the sneaks ..
Make sure you stroll on over to the Paper Niche Blog and see what the other ladies have up for their sneaks !!
Have a great weekend and come back tomorrow for the start of EASTER BLOG HOP! Yes, you get BLOG CANDY!
It's that time again where I show you some teasers. I just have a couple small sneak peaks for you today. But you are going to LOVE this month's Design Team Kit from the Paper Niche. I wish I could give you some of the manufacturers we are getting in this kit because that ALONE would sell it.
I will tell you this though, I worked alot with pink this month and I usually dont do that. But hey, with my design kit from Paper Niche this month it was Easy Peasy!
Cute butterfly right? Well I can tell you that I embossed it using the Lindy's stamp gang embossing powders which we have a ton of @ the Paper Niche. The embossing powder didnt come with the kit ... but that doesnt mean you can't run on over and get some!
Hmmm, I wonder if you can guess what I am showing you here? I can, but then maybe its cuz I made it LOL.
Be sure to go to the Paper Niche blog to see the REVEAL for our April Monthly Kit.

I started this a while ago and finally finished it. I've been so busy lately and have so many more ideas in my head that I decided I better finish all the projects that I had started to make room for my new ideas LOL. Plus I have to get ready for the bunny hop in April with my good friend Beatriz.
I thought this album has a romantic, twilight feel to it.
I have another album that I need to finish so hopefully will get that one done over the weekend, then I can start my new ideas with all the pretty new paper I bought!!
I heard the news and I am so excited!! I made the team!! WHOOT WHOOT, you have no idea how happy I am about this because I have been a fan of Basically Bare. I saw them for the first time last year at CHA and I knew as soon as I put my greedy little hands on their albums that I was in love. My mind was spinning instantly envisioning all kinds of albums I could make, I was so excited. Well I am so happy to hear that I get to make my basically bare albums now till my hearts content.

Congratulations everyone! I am so thrilled to be in your company and part of the Basically Bare team!
Don't forget to check out basically bare and leave me a comment on my "Exam" post on March 7th. You still have a chance to win their Grand Prize!!
Ok, so what's with the exam you ask? Well, let me tell you, I applied for the Basically Bare design team call and OH MY GOSH!! They called me back and I am a contender to be on their design team .. WHAT!!! I am so excited because I LOVE LOVE LOVE these albums. Just ask Tammy the store owner of my LSS. I begged her to order these beauties and she did! WHOOT then I grabbed several and got to work on doing what I love ... creating albums. You all know that is what I do, I love making mini's LOL.
Here is one of the albums I made using the BK003 Simply Shapely album and Graphic 45
I used this album to teach a class at the Paper Niche and I specifically chose this album because I wanted to show technique. This album is a mixed media album with acrylic, canvas, chipboard and felt pages.
Here is another example of the album I made using BK002C Krafty Keepsake Plain Jane
This album measures 4.5 by 8.5 and I loved using it because the inside pages are kraft pockets. I filled all the pockets with journaling and photos. It was a fast and easy to use album. Yeah for me.
OK, so here is the thing, part of my assignment as a contender to be on the awesome design team for
is to pick out 3 of my favorite items from their product line, but not just any 3 items but 3 items with a pretty good idea of what I will do with them.
So here goes, my most important decision is the album of course. I decided upon this beauty, Betty's Brackets
This album from Basically Bare is sized to hold your most precious memories. Packed from cover to cover with alluring and alterable materials, not only will you find this booklet versatile, but fabulously fun to work with! This album is bound with metal spiral binding which can be loosened in order for you to disassemble and reassemble your booklet. This album measures approximately 5.5" x 10" and includes the following materials:
•Covers: Double sided corrugated board
•Inner Pages: Heavy weight chipboard, natural unbleached canvas and flexible, embossable acrylic
My second pick is this little lady ES003VR1 - Dress Me Up Dressforms. Why? I will tell you all in a second. But maybe you are getting a hint of the theme
Getting my vision yet? Well let me just tell you. I see a french theme coming on. I got the idea from these black and white photos of my daughter Vanessa. I wanted to make her an album with a romantic Paris inspired theme. Here are some of the pictures I will be using ...
I will also be using the new Glitz Design French Kiss collection and maybe some Pretty In Pink thrown in.
You can buy these fabulouso Basically Bare goodies on scrapbook.com and if you live in South Florida or are poppin in for some sunny vacation time, go to my LSS the Paper Niche. They are stocked with Basically Bare embellies, and albums.
Did someone say GRAND PRIZE!!

I am getting ready to go to California and visit my family, so I thought I would share a layout I did of my cute niece when she was little. Plus it has lots of buttons, which I use alot!!
I used kraft paper which is a "go to" for me. I also used some 7 Gypsies tissue paper and bo bunny. I made the posies out of bazzill. I also layered lots of the buttons.
