New Hangout

It's been a while I know, but I'm back with some news to share. There are some changes going on in my life, both personal and scrappy! First, we had our baby girl on December 4th! She arrived via c-section but is healthy and a strong little one. She weighed 6lbs 9oz and was 20.5 inches long. Long legs, dark hair and wants to look around at the world as much as she can. We could not be happier to have spent this Christmas season with our little Kalli!

Next is the news in my scrappy world. I quit the creative team at Design House Digital and got a new gig! I'm now creating for Crystal Livesay and a new store called Pixels & Company!

The new store is opening this January and you can sign up to get this awesome collaboration kit in their newsletter! It's called In Good Company and all of the designers had a hand in making it so beautiful!

You'll also want to stay up to date on their Facebook page here! Pixels & Company has a lot of my favorite designers like Crystal Livesay, Robyn Meierotto, Karla Dudley, Karen Funk and Gennifer Bursett! There are so many more so you definitely have to check it out! As a teaser...here is the page that I made with the new collab!

I hope to be around posting on my blog more often now. I'll try to update you with some digital scrapbooking and Christmas stuff soon! Of course, I'll always be sharing pictures of our new little sweet pea too so come back soon!

Scrappy Sharing

Well with football being on every single channel yesterday, I got a surge of creative mojo and started making some new scrapbook pages finally! Thought that I would try to keep up with sharing them here for you. Just click on each layout to be taken to the credits. Enjoy!

This one is a Facebook Freebie from Crystal Livesay!
Go here to like her Facebook page and grab the template freebie!

That's all for today! I'm off to get ready for a day of shopping! Probably to buy way to much cute baby girl stuff. Thanks for stopping by!

Facebook Freebie

Hi everybody! I know you haven't seen me around for a while. I sort of took a break from this whole blogging thing again because I just haven't been able to keep up. I'm hoping that some new events in my life will spur me into posting more often so hang in there please!
Today I'm going to share a layout with you (also something that I haven't done in a long time!). My husband and the girls at his work had some fun dressing up for Halloween and I just had to document it!

I used a template from Crystal Livesay for this layout and guess what?! You can grab the template free...it's her December Freebie Template on Facebook. Find it here...just click the like button. Okay, that's all I have to share today. Have a great Wednesday!

Nursery Board

I promised a look at my inspriation board for the nursery....and here it is! *disclaimer* Some of the items won't make it into the room and some are identical to what will be the finished nursery. Remember this is just the "inspiration board"! Enjoy!

Painting the Baby Room

So in my last post I showed you all the inspiration rooms for our baby girl's nursery. Well, last week I started getting more and more excited about it and decided it was time to paint the walls! It's a True Value paint color called Hula Dance. The pictures don't do it justice because it's really more of an aqua/teal color than a robin's egg blue. I laughed because I might be the first person to find out that I'm having a girl and then paint the walls blue. Or maybe I'm just weird! ;)

I've also been working on repainting a dresser and I got some super cute ceramic drawer pulls from Hobbly Lobby. My gallery wall for above the crib is a work in progress and we're still waiting on the crib to show up so we can set it up in baby girl's room! I'll be back with my room board and links to all of our great stuff soon!
