Hi all!
It’s time for another Studio AE Blog hop with Ali Edwards and Technique Tuesday. I’m happy to taking part today with some of my favorite folks!
This month, we are highlighting the new This Story by Ali Edwards stamp set (the Studio AE set for March).
I decided to challenge myself with this month’s set to make a layout with a photo that I’d been putting off scrapbooking.
The picture was taken with a self-timer of me and my family on Thanksgiving, sans my youngest cousin who was taking a nap so she could power shop on Black Friday. Yes, she does her older cousin proud. 😉
I heat embossed one of the sentiment stamps to make the rectangle tile with white embossing powder and white ink.
I also used the “life is good” stamp from the set, just to add a little “something, something” under the picture.
Alright, that’s all I have got.
Be sure to check out the blogs of everyone taking part in today’s hop:
Like always, be sure to comment as you go! Technique Tuesday will give away a $25 gift certificate to someone who comments during the hop. The winner will be announced sometime on the 15th on the Technique Tuesday blog.
Thanks again for swinging by today!
A bit of this. A bit of that. 
Love all the little touches! 😉
Cool use of the folder embellishments. And the heat embossing is awesome.
