I don’t what to do with Valentine’s Day. The stubborn side of me wants to completely ignore it, because if I “celebrate,” I will just be giving in to the commercialization of everything in this country. But the romantic feminine side of me wants to seize the day and be completely lovey dovey as well as somewhat extravagant. :) What do you guys think? What’s your “norm” for Valentine’s Day? Do you even have a norm? I don’t. But maybe I’m just not old enough to have one yet. ha

Speaking of Valentine’s Day… I made a layout for Hambly Studios featuring some of their lovely pink paper and rub ons. Showcasing some friend-love.

I love the photography rub ons, and I will admit- I love vellum! Come on guys, it’s making a come back. I know I’ve been saying that for months now…. but I’m determined to continue using vellum! So anyway, I used the vellum to hold the photography rub ons and the Valentine’s Day rub ons from Hambly, because I didn’t want to break up the page too much by using an opaque paper… but I wanted the little grouping to have some presence.

Go check out what the other girls did with pink paper and rub ons!

Every month, Hambly is there to make sure my photos make it onto pages. :) Seriously, I would be so far behind right now if it weren’t for them. So here’s a little bit of what I’ve done in the month of December with scrapbook pages and cards.

This week’s Art is Found prompt is up! Elsie Flannigan is the guest this time around… so be sure to come over and play! I know the holidays can be super psycho crazy, but it’s always rewarding finding a creative release with paper and such.

Here’s the collage I made for the Sequins prompt.
