Summer Lovin' in the Gallery!

Ahhh...summertime.  Most definitely my favorite time of the year!  Weekday schedules are a little lighter, the days are a little longer, and everything's just a bit more fun. :)

Hopefully, summertime also means more scrappy time.  Looking through our online gallery, I was super inspired by these summertime layouts:

For Mom

Mother's Day is this Sunday, May 13th.  And today, I have three ideas from our Design Team and Member Gallery to help you finish off your gift.

Gift Bag and Tag by Brenda

This is such a genius idea!  Repurpose a shopping bag by adding some beautiful SEI Field Notes paper.  Then create a tag with some Fancy Pants paper, a butterfly die cut, and some ribbon.  Pop your gift in and you're all set to wow Mom.

Happy Mother's Day Card by Jenny

What a beautiful card!  Jenny used her Silhouette SD to cut the design for the front of this card.  She found the free cut file at THIS blog.  If you don't have a Silhouette, you could use another die cut machine and a similar cut image to get the peek through effect of her card.  You could even use laser cut paper or punches.  I'm sure however you put it together, it would make Mom smile.

Mom, You are Truly Amazing by Tamika

I just love the color scheme that Tamika used on this beautiful card.  The red rose and vertical MOM just jump off the card.  And what a sweet sentiment!  

Happy Scrapping and Happy Mother's Day to all of you!
