AUTHENTIQUE's Fantastic "Plain" Papers Sneak

Hello folks, check out today's AUTHENTIQUE BLOG POST on using those fantastic plain papers from Authentique! So much more depth in them than using plain cardstock!!

Kind of fun, isn't it?!?! Plus, I got to play with my Silhouette quite a bit!

AUTHENTIQUE PAPER: June's Color Challenge

I really love color challenges. And I really hope that you play along with Authentique's color challenge this month. It fits perfectly with the Fresh Collection that has been just recently released by Authentique. I just loved the blues, grays and reds. They worked perfectly with this lovely photo of my Miss I as a newborn, in contrast to the black and white photographs from the past few months.

I really loved how the ledger paper lent itself to a great section of journaling. I've been tossing around the idea of how big my little girl has gotten, and how fast three years has really flown by. Especially with the upcoming birth of the new little bunny. 

Those great stickers from the Details sheet are fun to add some good comments, when sometimes journaling just doesn't explain everything.

And the Diction is fantastic too! Those Elements sheets with both the Diction and the Petite Type are great.

If you want to play along this month, here is the color board:

Counterfeit Kit Challenge: Bicycle Stamped Card

I love my Counterfeit Kit. Okay, so I really love most every counterfeit kit that I make. More because I actually use the supplies that I probably wouldn't think about going to right away when creating things. In this case, I never once used this cute bicycle stamp before this card. Since it is a featured piece of my counterfeit kit, I can foresee many more uses before I run out of this kit.

I will probably use this kit all throughout June instead of creating one specifically for June. Not that I don't want to create a new one, I just have almost a completed kit still in the bag. I've been a little lax in creating this month.
