If you are here for The Sampler blog hop, please click here!

I normally don’t post on Saturdays, but today is special! Okay, well… not really, but I just felt like writing and sharing some of my recent work. I have been keeping up with a handful of deadlines, so I keep cranking out layout after layout.
These first two layouts were created using the fabulous April kit from The Sampler.
I have to reiterate how much I love the colors to the April kit. It’s so perfect for spring and summer photos. If you are interested in subscribing to this awesome kit, click here.
I have also been finishing up layouts for Memories Live On, one of mylocal scrapbook stores. They wanted me to create a non-4th of July layout using the latest We R Memory Keepers’ 4th of July themed paper…? Yeah… my thought exactly, hehe. No worries though! I managed to create a layout using the latest sketch from Sketchy Thursdays.

I turned it into a love/wedding themed layout, haha!

…so what do you think?! Did I pull it off? I think I’m going to give myself credit for taking 4th of July paper and creating a layout about a wedding, haha!
Last but not least, I wanted to pass on some FUN and EXCITING news about Kiki Art.

Yup, you read that right! There’s a blog hop(scotch) going on next week starting April 29th. You are all gonna LOVE it. I’ll fill everyone in on all the details once I hear more from Kiki.
Until then, happy weekend.

Just coming by because your wedding layout caught my eye as a Sketchy Thursday Fave. Great job on the layout. And I hadn’t really noticed that it was July 4th paper until reading your post. I even got married on July 4th last year! Anyway, also see that you’re in the area, as I’ve gone to Memories Live On a few times.
Great work!
