</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Good morning! Today the team at <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue </a>is blog hopping with some of our favorite projects using the September kits. For this layout, I chose some of my favorite photos from the fall semester of homeschool kindergarten. I found an apple cut file and then back the apples with two different patterned papers. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I added a little machine stitching to the apples for texture. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The themed Life Pages add-on had some great wood veneer pieces. I also cut up one of the cards to use below part of the title I cut with my cameo. </span><br />

It's reveal day at <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> and I have a couple layouts to share with you that I created with the September kits. My projects this month seemed to incorporate grids! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For this first layout, I created a collage of photos we took at the Iowa State Fair this year. We had a blast - from the food to the animals to the rides to looking at amazing projects! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiguTqizQc7oAz7G70nyVOOMMa_SmWMLzvEsI8pLCWoAO6HhVHwyqYx47y9FkszkGHqVBmLd4aUbkkQoLVAWgeg_U9UvYc0AHz8JwNSl4aM8SejGrkHYDyYfUxFLfT6g3S3Am2Cew/s1600/IowaStateFair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="632" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiguTqizQc7oAz7G70nyVOOMMa_SmWMLzvEsI8pLCWoAO6HhVHwyqYx47y9FkszkGHqVBmLd4aUbkkQoLVAWgeg_U9UvYc0AHz8JwNSl4aM8SejGrkHYDyYfUxFLfT6g3S3Am2Cew/s640/IowaStateFair.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The alphabet options in the kits are so great - Crate Paper and PinkFresh - lots of opportunities to make cool titles! </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The second layout I have to share today features a trip to Living History Farms last fall. This time I put the title in the middle with the grid on top and bottom. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you haven't guessed by now, I love using multiple photos on my layouts and creating a grid is an easy way to do that. Just keep most of the photos the same size and you've got a collage!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Good morning! Today I'm taking part in the August Inspiration Blog Hop with other designers at <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a>. The August kits were some of my favorites in awhile because they had a summer theme! Summertime is by far when we are outside doing all kinds of activities! The girls still like playing in a little pool on our deck although they are almost too big for it now. Nevertheless, they like to lounge around in it and relax! ;) A little different from their baby days where I was watching their every move in the pool.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My goal for this layout was to add a lot of color to match their new red swimsuits. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One of my favorite embellishments to work with lately are frames and these kits had quite an assortment. I built a row of them (backed with patterned paper) and embellished with flair, brads and more. </span><br />

Today, I have a couple of layouts to share that showcase the <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">August Gossamer Blue</a> kits! I adore any summer themed products so I went a little crazy buying extra add-ons this month. I can't resist brightly colored papers and embellishments! For this layout, I was able to document a fishing adventure with grandpa from last summer. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The patterned paper stripes help out some pops of color and I love that little "splish splash" fish flair. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Next, I already have the 4th of July on a layout! I chose some of my favorite photos from the parade this year and printed our family photo larger to help it stand out. </span><br />

Today I wanted to share a couple of my projects with the July <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> kits. I had not yet scrapbooked any of the girls' soccer photos from last fall. The bright colors in this kit just screamed 'sports' to me so I chose some of my favorites of them playing. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> I loved the vellum circles in the main kit. An easy way to attach vellum? Just sew it on! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I cut the title "Play" out of a piece of alphabet themed paper in Shimelle's new collection from American Crafts. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I had also not yet put last year's 4th of July parade on a layout yet so I chose out elements of red, white and blue. I punched a few stars from patterned paper and then used 'puffy' stars here and there. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Good morning! <span>Today, I'm hopping along with the design team from <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> and we're sharing some inspiration with the June kits. This was my favorite page I made with the kits featuring Miss Lily turning 6. I've become a lot more intentional about the pages I'm adding to our albums. Years and years of trying to come up with layouts for assignments has changed my perspective greatly. I've been adding pages outlining more milestones and a few events and then trying to capture more of our everyday life by creating Life Pages on a monthly basis. I'm about 6 months in and this is working really well for me and my family. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This page is all about minimal layering. I loved the colors so much! So bright and fun for a birthday page! I love creating these pages each year. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I love that Amy Tangerine chipboard frame - perfect for capturing a favorite sheet of patterned paper with a few embellishments. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, I'm hopping along with the design team from <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> and we're sharing some inspiration with the April kits. I usually only scrap about my family but this month I was really inspired by the wood veneer embroidery hoops that were included in an add-on kit. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love to embroider myself (and really need to take it up again!) but for this layout I wanted to document a set of pillowcases my grandma made when I got married. She was one of the people who taught me how to embroider so it was important for me to create a layout about these pretty heirloom pieces.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I kept the circles in mind as I continued my design with several other circle die-cuts and embellishments in the kits. </span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Welcome to What I'm Reading - the February edition. February was a very cold month so I spent a lot of it curled up with a book. Let's dig in....</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1) <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0452297540/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0452297540&linkCode=as2&tag=blessscrap-20&linkId=T4VIP56FXOYJ5PJ4%22%3EAttachments:%20A%20Novel%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=blessscrap-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0452297540%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E">Attachments by Rainbow Rowell</a> - This was my second book by Rowell. It was a quick, fun read with a cute love story. I enjoyed the email format woven throughout the book. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">2) <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ciframe%20style=%22width:120px;height:240px;%22%20marginwidth=%220%22%20marginheight=%220%22%20scrolling=%22no%22%20frameborder=%220%22%20src=%22//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ac&ref=qf_sp_asin_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=blessscrap-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=0345525558&asins=0345525558&linkId=CJP6VTSLEBEIZVTC&show_border=true&link_opens_in_new_window=true%22%3E%20%3C/iframe%3E">The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh</a> - This was one of the best books I have read in a very long time. It was a heartbreaking look into the foster care system and went back and forth between the past and present day. I would highly recommend this one!</span><br />

I actually didn't care for this one at all but again I have this weird thing where I have to finish a book. The story ended abruptly and I didn't like the fanfiction sections - I just skimmed over them. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">4) <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0061950726/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0061950726&linkCode=as2&tag=blessscrap-20&linkId=LA6SPKRUUM4TBOTX%22%3EOrphan%20Train%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=blessscrap-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0061950726%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E">Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline</a> - This was a blend of historical and modern day fiction and was a really great read. I even cried at the end if that tells you anything. </span><br />

It was very heavy so I had to read a little bit, take notes and then put it down for a while so I could process it. I usually focus on spiritual books if I'm going to read anything outside of fiction. But I would highly recommend this one - it gave me a new perspective on being vulnerable and facing my fears. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for stopping by!

So I've decided to get all crazy and do a little Project Life. Because doing something weekly stresses me out, I've decided to take a monthly approach with it. I want to get those photos and moments off my phone and recorded. <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> has so many gorgeous Life Pages cards and embellishments that I am excited about taking a new approach to memory keeping. For this spread, I used the February kits from Gossamer Blue.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Here is a close up of page 1 - page protectors are from Simple Stories. Just everyday moments captured here - my dad had surgery, I cleaned up my scrap room, a gorgeous sunset, the books I read in January, big business news and hot chocolate for 4!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">On page 2, we started back into homeschooling after Christmas break, snuggling with cousin Hayden, sledding with dad, grandpa Allan spent the night, science experiments at Clover Kids and I celebrated my birthday! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My approach is simple - focus on the photos, add labels for journaling to help tell the story and keep embellishments minimal. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">There's nothing quite like snuggling up with a book. I've always been a reader and usually devour each book I read. I've decided to start a new blog series and share the books I have read each month. I like hearing recommendations from other bloggers and maybe you will find one you would to read. I'm also devoting myself to picking up these books at the library. I'm trying to cut the clutter and books seem to not have a good resale value. And if I keep reading at the rate I am, I can't afford it! :)</span><br />

I read it in about two days. It was such a sweet story and yet heartbreaking at the same time. It dawned on me after reading this one that I used to read Rainbow Rowell's columns in the Omaha World Herald when I was in Chuck Offenburger's writing classes at BVU. </span><br />

I haven't always been the best at updating but I hope to change that in 2015 and expand on the topics I blog about - I usually stick to scrapbooking, party ideas, Stitch Fix and essential oils. ;) Every single blog on this hop will have a giveaway!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are new to my blog, here's a little bit about me: I have been married for 11 years and am momma to my 5-year-old twins. I stay home with them and we have embarked on a homeschooling adventure this year. I am currently designing for Webster's Pages and Gossamer Blue. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Feel free to find me on Instagram: @jillcornell or <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/jillcornell/">Pinterest</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">To be entered into my giveaway, please leave a comment and I'll choose my random winners on January 7th and announce them here.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here's what I'm giving away!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1) An awesome assortment of products from Webster's Pages including a 6x6 paper pad, bookmarks, resin embellishments, flowers and bags and a ton of Life Pages cards from this year's Gossamer Blue kits. I've also included some exclusive stamp sets from Gossamer Blue and a cute Valentine's Day stamp set from Elle's Studio.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">2) One lucky winner will also win a 5 ml bottle of Young Living's Peppermint oil. Over the past year, my family has fallen in LOVE with essential oils and I knew I wanted to include that love with my giveaway. We use peppermint oil for EVERYTHING - headaches, congestion, fevers, stomach aches and nausea - just to name a few. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcnnBJQugCOPAdCCmK3nebIX4n5_QNyJDJ2toGT5KVH7Ic5NAPpIN8fCST2jDWMjqnXd7sVbPkp6ezIu1Ys-XkM10NeVpt6_n1Th6HEUCrVUPOzXKq2d5-74lSnvQ4pP3QHjpxgA/s1600/photo(376).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcnnBJQugCOPAdCCmK3nebIX4n5_QNyJDJ2toGT5KVH7Ic5NAPpIN8fCST2jDWMjqnXd7sVbPkp6ezIu1Ys-XkM10NeVpt6_n1Th6HEUCrVUPOzXKq2d5-74lSnvQ4pP3QHjpxgA/s1600/photo(376).JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">3) And, finally winner #3 will receive these sample packets of Peppermint, Thieves and Lavender - three of my most used essential oils plus a Vanillamint lip balm. I've been carrying these lip balms with my everywhere this winter. It's a must have! If you are curious about oils too, please feel free to leave your email in the comments and I'll send you some info. My group has a "Winter Wellness" online class coming up in January. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Finally, I want to share a layout with you all too. This one features the January main kit from <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> and my daughter, Nora. She lost her first tooth in November and it was important to me to document it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_cOFhj0mIhLKZJhy4rj3XR7A0QmSEiCxweG4LaoAZW_qCU-0iXF8urL6FnSn7KrjtXk4shXVMKic8mD1gJwyeTSNfYC0qJtC60YClfwFVGk-JiFRwJ0fm4G_cZB0WKmcnLZuq0g/s1600/First_Tooth_Nora.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_cOFhj0mIhLKZJhy4rj3XR7A0QmSEiCxweG4LaoAZW_qCU-0iXF8urL6FnSn7KrjtXk4shXVMKic8mD1gJwyeTSNfYC0qJtC60YClfwFVGk-JiFRwJ0fm4G_cZB0WKmcnLZuq0g/s1600/First_Tooth_Nora.jpg" height="636" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">One of the things I love most about the Gossamer Blue kits are the exclusives - printables, Life Pages cards, wood veneer, cork and more! </span><br />

Today I am excited to announce an awesome giveaway both on my blog and my friend, <a href="http://www.stephaniehowell.com/">Stephanie Howell's blog</a>! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let me take you back about a year ago when I was experiencing some health issues and traditional medications were not doing much for me. I had heard of essential oils and was very intrigued to learn more. I got to a point where I was willing to try just about anything so I purchased a premium starter kit from <a href="https://www.youngliving.com/signup/?site=US&sponsorid=1581200&enrollerid=1581200">Young Living</a> and gave it a whirl. I quickly discovered that most of the essential oils I tried were making a huge difference for the health issues I was experiencing. I was using them DAILY and the rest of my family was using them too. I also started slowly replacing store bought products with DIY essential oil concoctions - things like foaming hand soap, sugar scrubs, moisturizer, hand sanitizer and more - I was making it for mere pennies and saving money in the process. The initial investment I made was more than paying for itself.</span><br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.youngliving.com/signup/?site=US&sponsorid=1581200&enrollerid=1581200">Young Living</a> has a premium starter kit that includes 11 different
essential oils, some sample packets plus a diffuser. There are several
ways to use essential oils: aromatically (diffuser or inhaling),
topically (rubbing into the feet or parts of the body) and some use oils
that are generally regarded as food safe internally (examples: citrus oils
like Lemon, Lime, Orange and Peppermint). When you purchase a starter
kit, you become a <a href="https://www.youngliving.com/signup/?site=US&sponsorid=1581200&enrollerid=1581200">wholesale member</a> and can purchase oils/products at
24%.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Welcome to the <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> December Memories Inspiration Blog Hop! Several members of the design team are sharing our ideas with the Gossamer Blue album kit. Be sure to check out my fellow team members for lots of inspiration!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here's what I do... December is usually an incredibly busy and stressful month so I throw the "daily" idea out the window and make it more about 31 memories of the month. Then, I don't find myself stressing about trying to work on a page of the album every day and I'm not stretching to make up something if we don't do anything on a particular day in December. There are many days where we have more than one memory too.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here's a peek at my cover this year.... I love this exclusive album and the gold doily had to be a focal point... I jazzed it up with wood veneer and flair. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb4ItO1Sjlk8u7uxT2mbhWWrc3x3ROx8mBLrS65TwqrLRUHSmedyn0KrKzLwI71TBb_J2FI63vPxm6_Z02lyawYRgD7qrHIhyphenhyphenr8T03qjC7cQwgif1MoSZYuClUjHCTBJ_2ZRjapQ/s1600/Christmas_Magic_Album_Cover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb4ItO1Sjlk8u7uxT2mbhWWrc3x3ROx8mBLrS65TwqrLRUHSmedyn0KrKzLwI71TBb_J2FI63vPxm6_Z02lyawYRgD7qrHIhyphenhyphenr8T03qjC7cQwgif1MoSZYuClUjHCTBJ_2ZRjapQ/s1600/Christmas_Magic_Album_Cover.jpg" height="550" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And here's a look at the inside so far... I honestly didn't do much yet besides set up pages 1-10 with the addition of the "Get Happy" collection wood veneer numbers. I'll add in a lot of details later and make some cover pages as I go.</span><br />

This collection was perfect to use for a layout about creating a gingerbread house! We have started a tradition where we put together our house with my mom. It's very fun to do together!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I cut the ornaments out of the patterned paper in the collection using my Cameo. Then I backed each ornament with vellum. The bow at the top of the gold ornament is vellum and part of the "All That Glitters" collection.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I cut my title using my Cameo and green cardstock. The little "Joy" stickers are mini alphabet stickers. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Today the <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> team is showcasing projects we created with the November kits. This layout was created using only the main kit. We were out and about on a gorgeous fall day last month and snapped this photo on my phone. I really loved the exclusive paper I used for the background, designed by One Little Bird. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Gossamer Blue kits always include exclusive printables and I cut out the circle to use my journaling. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For the title, I used one of the exclusive cut files and then punched out some leaves to draw out the golden color in the background paper. </span><br />

Today I have a new layout to share for <a href="http://www.websterspage.com/">Webster's Pages</a> and the gorgeous new collection "The Nest", designed by Brandin O'Neill. We recently had family photos taken by my good friend, <a href="http://www.carriekrupke.com/#welcome">Carrie Krupke</a>. I absolutely adored this photo - the trees were just the perfect shade of yellow. It was a beautiful day. I knew I wanted this one to be the first photo I scrapped. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love the warm colors in this collection and I helped draw it out the orange in our photos with orange cardstock. </span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I created a simple grid so I could highlight the frames (easily cut out of one of the patterned papers). And I just adore the vellum - perfect for adding a softness to the layout. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Good morning! I have one more layout to share with you using the October <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> kits - this one focuses on the Life Pages themed add-on with my favorite orange, black and white patterned papers thrown in from the rest of the kits. These are photos from last Halloween when we went to Night Eyes at our local zoo.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I created a couple focal points with the cut out spider webs. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The middle of each spider web is embellished with layered die-cuts and stickers. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today I have another layout to share with the October <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> kits. I love the color scheme - of the teal, orange, gold and bright blue. When I saw the alphabet card from Chickaniddy Crafts, I knew I wanted to create a layout to highlight the first day of school.</span><br />

We have had quite the month in my family so because things have been a little crazy around here, I haven't had the chance to share more of my work with the October <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> kits. I knew I wanted to create a layout highlighting our time at a little pumpkin patch near our house. </span><br />

It's been quite a while since I
have had a Stitch Fix so I was excited to get one this month. I had some credit leftover from the Mother's Day gift card I won so I saved it to get another fix for fall.
Maggie was my stylist again this month. My items ranged in price from
$34-$88.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span> </span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span>Here is what I received:</span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><b>1) Pixley Ivy Petal Print Blouse - </b>I always ask for something floral and while I really loved this blouse, I was not a fan of the $68 price tag. It was a flattering fit but I could not justify paying that much for it. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span><b><br /></b></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><b>2) LA MADE Nettie Thermal Dress - </b>I had asked for a navy or black dress that I could wear this winter. I was extremely disappointed in this dress. It was $88 and THERMAL and it was about as flattering as a potato sack. It was way too big on the top. </span></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span><b>3) Market and Spruce - Margarie Stripe & Dot Open Cardigan - </b>I did like the fit and colors of the cardigan.

I liked it but not the price tag. </span></span></div>

<span><b>5) Olive & Oak Kira Mixed Stripe Racerback Tank - </b>I
immediately fell in love with the berry color of this tank - very pretty for fall. And I knew that it would be something I would wear a lot. I tend to like tanks and cardigans with jeans as my fall and winter wardrobe. I don't have anything in this color either. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span>I ended up keeping the berry tank. It's a great classic piece and the least expensive item that was included. I liked the fall color palette and I know I will wear it often. I have a tiny bit left on my gift card so looks like I'll be getting another fix this winter. Thanks for checking out my review!</span></span>

I'm sorry I seemed to have fallen off the face of the earth the past few weeks. Life has just been very, very busy and I have much to catch up on this week.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Today I have a layout to share with you using the October <a href="http://www.gossamerblue.com/">Gossamer Blue</a> main kit. This one highlights the relationship I have with Miss Lily. I like to create individual layouts about the relationships I have with each of my daughters. And I love to write letters to them on these layouts. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I cut out the circles using my Cameo and just made a variety of sizes. Each circle was then backed with patterned paper and then some were further embellished. </span><br />
