As Design Team Divas....We Are Family!!!!

Ok, I admit it...corny, but we are showcasing the We Are Family collection today...well, some of us are....one of us is dreaming about summer and the Summer Collection and another one of is dreaming of beavers named Beatrice from the Beatrice collection!

Let's just get right to it!

 First up is Linda Beeson-She used the Beatrice collection

How adorable is that pinwheel and she used the Cute as a Button Buttons on the card also!

Next up is Rae Barthel with some We Are Family 

And on her first card she used the Warm Cord Brads, so fun!

Next up is Karen Taylor, who is loving the Summer Collection!!  

What a soft and pretty card....and she used the Cool Cord Brads!

Then we have Ms. Lea Albers...first she created an adorable housewarming card with a sheer 

and the We Are Family collection

 Then check out this mini album!!!!  I LOVE mini albums....and she did a GREAT job on this one!!!

She used the scallop mini album on this one.

 Then she used some of the same photos and made a matching 4x4 photo cube!!

And then there is little ol' me!!! I used all of We Are Family for my projects this month

First of all a layout

Here is a little detail with the kites and the Cut Ups

And I think the owl mini album is my FAVORITE!!!!  I created this little wall hang in a matter of 30 mins or so....super quick and I can't wait to find a place to hang it! Don't forget, you can always split your mini albums up into individual pieces!!!

 

Well, that is it from us today.  We are trying to get Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker to 5000 likes over on Facebook.  If you don't already like us over there, then head over and like us!!!!  Here is the PAGE.

Have a Scrappy Kind of Day!!~~Katrina

Rae, Lea, Linda, Karen and Katrina Rocking the blog today!

I can't BELIEVE it is the 19th of March???  The month is flying by and I have so much to do!  And I have to give kudos to "my girls" (yes they are my girls!) this month....they were whipping their projects to me pronto!!!  I even had to look to make sure I hadn't missed a week!!!!!  Thank goodness for them....I would be lost this month.

Ok, on to the fun stuff.  I made this banner for the booth at CHA (now I need to write the directions!) out of the Max and Mollie collection.  This was the first thing I made after being in a major mojo SLUMP during the holidays. 

And then here is a layout I did with  Max and Mollie also....I LOVE this collection!!   On of my favorite colors is pink...so this is right up my alley!!!  This is Ella, she is on of the Pet Therapy dogs in the household.  That is how Nikki and I met, doing dog activities!!  And let me tell you Nikki's Willie B was a sweetheart....he had the biggest ears that would kind of flop when he was doing agility.  I miss him too!

 

Next up is Lea, how cute are these cards!!! And I have to give a big shout of congratulation to Lea, she has four cards in the Dutch CARDS magazine using Nikki's Summer collection!!!  

 Love the stitching on the next card!

 Lea took the border strips from the die cut paper and just layered them!  And the word "Feestje!" on her card means Party!!!

Next up is Karen, with an adorable card!!

Now Linda with some cards also!

This one uses the Summer collection..love what she did with the scallops also!

 This is from the We Are Family collection

And last, but certainly not least is Rae with some Max and Mollie!

I love how Rae did the bows above and below...the little cut up flowers in the center are so cute!

And those buttons!!!!

Well, that is it from us!!!  We hope you are finding all kinds of Nikki Sivils goodies in your LSS and online.  If your LSS doesn't carry Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker...well tell them too!!!  They don't want to miss out on these cute papers!!!!

And make sure and LIKE Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker on Facebook.  You never know what kind of crazy things are going on over there....especially when I have control of the Facebook page!!!!

It's the weekend...need some inspiration?!

So, is everyone just chilling this weekend or are you in a crafty kind of mood??  Me, I think a little of both!

Lately, I have had what I have decided to call "postpartum CHA depression".  It's my description of what has happened to my "mojo" the last week or so!  After giving "birth" to all the CHA projects, I have lost my mojo somewhere and I am very sad and want it to come back!!!

BUT, after I got all these AMAZING entries for the blog posting from Rae, Linda, Lea and Karen....my mojo came back and I actually create a page late, late last night!!!  Whoo hoooo...but not showing you that one today!

Let's get started!

First of all a double page layout from Lea Albers!  Lea makes some amazing cards, but she can rock the layouts too!!!  She used the "It's Raining, It's Pouring" collection....

She also made a one page layout with the "It's Your Day" collection.  So cute...look at that cupcake border!

Next up is Karen Taylor from the local team.  She is a whiz at altered items and she came up with this adorable wall hanging using "It's Raining, It's Pouring".

Now we have Linda Beeson.  She has a card each for two collections....first, "It's Raining, It's Pouring"

 

And this cutie from the "We Are Family" collection

And more "It's Raining, It's Pouring" fun from Rae!!!  Rae and Linda were on the same page of trying to cheer someone up!  Totally different cards, but both are totally adorable!  This just shows how you can come up with different cards...but with the same theme!

And I LOVE this shaped card!!!

And then Rae has created a "rainy day" fund jar!! This would be so cute to put in your kid's room...or even to just sit in the kitchen for everyone to put change it!  Or paper money for that matter!

And last but not least....here is a layout and an altered clothespin from me!  The clothespin is great to hold a picture or a card that you want to leave out to look at.  Both are with "It's Raining, It's Pouring".

 

 

Hope we gave you some inspiration for the weekend!  And if you are not a fan of Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker on Facebook, make sure you are!  We are constantly posting inspiration from the design team, Nikki Sivils, Scrapooker news, and more!  

Have a Scrappy Kinda Day!!~~Katrina
