Hey everybody! Welcome to the May edition of the Gardeners' Digest.
The Garderners' Digest is simply a monthly update from the Garden
Girls, the design team at
Two Peas In A Bucket.
It's a place for us to share what we're currently working on,
inspired by, using in our projects, etc. A little diary of sorts for
you to keep up with all of us on our personal blogs as well as over at
Two Peas In A Bucket.
So I have to admit that I don't actually have any new projects in the
works at this moment. But I did just recently share a new
project that went up in the Garden yesterday. You can see my travel themed layout right
here on my blog or
here
in the Garden. Here's a peek at my layout ...
Browsing the
gallery at Two Peas is one of my favorite things to do when I'm looking for inspiration. I fell in love with this
layout by fellow Garden Girl
Wendy Sue Anderson. I love how Wendy arranged her stunning photos in a grid design and the embellishments and extra touches are just fantastic!
Next I'd like to share a few recent purchases I've made from the
shop at Two Peas. Lots of new products have arrived recently. Here are five of my most recent purchases ...
- 9 to 5 Collection
(I've been waiting for this collection to hit the shop and I think I
loaded up my cart and hit submit in less than 2 minutes! LOL)
- Summer Fresh Collection (This collection has everything I love about summer all wrapped up in one pretty package - I cannot wait to use these goodies!)
- Sweet Day Collection (I love this new collection by Echo Park. My favorite paper has to be this hexagon print - just fabulous!)
- Mistable Stickers
(There are several mistable Thicker Stickers available from Studio
Calico that are exclusive to Two Peas. These weather icons are my
favorites!)
Garden Girl Amy Heller just launched a brand new workshop called
Through the Kaleidoscope with: Making Sense of Color 4 Scrapbooking.
I was lucky enough to contribute a layout to this workshop along with several other fabulous guest designers.
Here's a description of Amy's new class ...
Do you wish you could add more color to your scrapbooking projects?
