Hello my crafty friends!

 I used Mary's stamp set called Thankful for you!   I also used patterned paper, cardstock, CTMH ink Pens, Burlap ribbon, and a stick pin I created to complete this cutie!

You can enter the Cardz TV Challenge HERE!!

I can't thank you enough for checking out my blog today. It means the world to me and I hope you truly enjoyed it. May it inspire you to create something wonderful!   Scrappy Hugs!

Hello everyone!  It's Kim from Katydid Cards.  Today a little departure from the cards I generally share with you.  I hope you like something a little different.

If you didn't already know, the namesake of my blog is my little dog, Katy.  She has me wrapped around her little paw, that's for sure.  She is also my favorite subject for scrapbooking.

I got started in paper crafting through scrapbooking many years ago.  While I loved making scrap book pages, I was constantly in search of just the right paper or embellishment to showcase my pictures.  Sometimes I would sit pictures aside while searching for the elusive "perfect" things to use and then never got back to them.

Then I discovered digital scrap booking and my problem was solved.  The layout above was done entirely with digital products, from the template to the papers to the embellishments.  As an added bonus, if I didn't like a certain combination, I simply removed and replaced it...no ruined paper, etc.  If you want to see more scrapbook pages, just click here and, if you do click, please take a moment to say, "hello".

These pages can either be stored and shared on your computer or printed out.  I even made a book to give as a gift and it was a huge hit!  Here's the cover, but you can see the full book by clicking on the image.

Before I leave you, I want to remind you about our monthly challenge, Pumpkin Spice.

You can find all the details here.  Hope to see your entry in the challenge!

I am so excited to announce my November Guest Designer here at Connie Can Crop...

Michelle Kinder

from Cuttin and Stampin

She has created a gorgeous project using our theme from the monthly Challenge, Pumpkin Spice!

Here's a little bit about Michelle's project:

It’s Michelle from Cuttin and Stampin

I am here today to share my pumpkin spice challenge project.  I decided to scrapbook some old pictures.  These are about 10 years old.  Anyway his little outfit seemed like good fall colors so away I went.

I hope that creating these pages helps me get motivated to scrap more older photos.  Older pictures bring back so many memories and remind me of how fast time goes by.  

I used Paper from DCWV the lodge stack and indian summer.  I also used cardstock from CTMH.  I cut the pumpkins freehand.  I used cricut cartridge Art Philosophy for the title and greenery.

BE sure to stop by Michelle's Blog and leave her some love! She was an awesome Guest DT!!

Interested in being a guest DT on my blog? Send me an email or message with a photo of your favorite project and let me know!
