Hey there!  Amber here to share this week’s Layout of the Week!  I’m so excited!  It’s always so much fun for me to browse through the Gallery - everyone’s layouts are so different, so wonderful, and I learn so much from each one of you!  So, I just have to say, “Thank You”!  And, for our winner today, I have chosen the super cute layout entitled “Sisters At Play” by lil_goldie!

Isn’t this ADORABLE?!  I LOVE the colors in this layout – blue and brown are my favorite!  They make such a CUTE girl page!  I LOVE the stitching and the flower clusters!  I LOVE the alpha – another one of my favorites!  And then there are the pictures!  How sweet! :0)  I also happen to LOVE hats!  Especially on little kids!  And then, I can relate to not having any pictures up of your youngest child.  I have plenty of pictures taken of my little one, just none printed! :0}  So, I, too, need to get on the ball!

Thank you so much, lil_goldie, for posting this page for all of us to enjoy!  Can’t wait to see more of your layouts!  Please check your email for your $10 gift card to the Shoppe!  (Be sure to check your spam folder if you don’t see it!)

Thanks again to all who post in the gallery!  Come by tomorrow as Rosy shares our next Inspiration Post!  Have a wonderful day! :0)

Hello everyone!  Lindsay here, and I am SO excited to bring you this week’s super-cute and adorable Layout of the Week!  I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things to do on Monday morning (after I’ve fed the kiddies their breakfast, of course!) is to grab my cup of coffee, head to the computer, and see which beautiful layout has been chosen for this fun and fabulous honor!  And I now I get to pick from all your gorgeous pages – which is not an easy task, by the way!  This week’s winner is amycoffeypt with her darling layout Ellie!

If you haven’t seen this sweet page in the gallery yet, you must check it out!  It is full of wonderfully chosen papers and elements from the Penelope kit, and they perfectly highlight her precious photos of baby Ellie being welcomed into the world by her smiling family!  I LOVE new babies, and this page just fills you with all the happiness and excitement their arrival brings, doesn’t it?  And how beautiful is that baby!?!?!

So, congratulations, amycoffeypt!  Have fun shoppe-ing with your $10 gift certificate, which has been emailed to you!  (Don’t forget to check your spam folder if you don’t see it!!!)  And thanks so much for sharing such a special moment in your family’s life with us!

Thanks to EVERYONE for posting your beautiful creations in the gallery ~ hope you all have a great week!  Be sure to swing back by tomorrow, when Aubrey will be here with a beautiful Product Spotlight!

Good morning everyone…Casharina here!  Can you believe it’s already Monday?  Shew, it feels like my weekends just fly by these days and Monday comes quicker than ever!  There is one thing I look forward to on Mondays though, the Layout of the Week blog post.  I love seeing the beautiful layouts featured every Monday, but I don’t necessarily love the task of being the “picker.” Lol!  It’s one of the toughest posts I have to complete, with all the eye candy in the gallery.  I have such a hard time choosing only one, but you all know that’s how it goes…so this week I’ve chosen yordea’s Tiny Toes layout.

Her layout is simply simple, and that’s one thing I adore about it.  Aren’t baby feet, and their tiny toes one of the most precious things ever?  I love them!  Here yordea has done a fantastic job of keeping the focus on her perfect image.  I really like how she has used the stitching from Memory Lane to stitch around the photo, as well as placed it inside the frame; so cute, and what a great way to focus your eyes on the image held within.  I also like the brushed flowers sitting just behind the photo to help give it depth.  The paper she’s chosen to go along with the sweet photo couldn’t have been any more perfect; I admire the entire page!  Stunning simple’ness really!!

Congratulations yordea for winning layout of the week - and an even sweeter congratulations on the birth of your precious little girl!  We hope you enjoy a little Shoppe-ing fun!!  Please check your email (also don’t forget to check your spam folder if you don’t see it) for your $10 Shabby Shoppe gift card.

Thank you all for posting your beautiful layouts in the gallery each week - it really is so fun and inspiring to see them!  Have a wonderful fun-filled Monday and check back tomorrow when lego shares with us an inspirational post, I’m sure it’ll be amazing!

Greetings Digi Scrappers!  Emily here for my first ever Shabby Princess blog post!  What a thrill!  I hope you are having a marvelous Monday!  I would love to make it more marvelous by announcing our latest Layout of the Week winner!  It was pure joy to browse through the gallery this past week looking at everyone’s layout treasures!  Pure bliss…that is until I had to choose just one to feature! LOL!  Well, here it goes…Join me in honoring rache77 and her gorgeous layout, Happiness is…

Her beautiful layout is stunning in its simplicity, but I honestly get lost looking at all the perfectly placed layers!  I am so proud of her for trying out Lego’s stamping technique and for doing such a gorgeous job bringing it to life in this layout.  The photograph is expertly framed by the wonderful paper layers, the brushed background and the dynamite stitching!  I get giddy looking at each small detail, from the stapled hearts to the font choices for her title. LOVE!  Share some love by commenting below on this stellar layout!

Hello Happy Scrappers!  Aubrey here for my first blog post!  I am excited and a bit nervous about this, but am so grateful to be a part of this great team!  I have always looked forward to Layout of the Week to see what inspiration that it brought.  I now understand how hard it is to choose!  There are so many beautiful layouts out there, and this week was no different!  I am pleased to announce that Hannah and her family together layout is this week’s winner:

I loved this page from the moment I saw it in the gallery!  I loved the subtle tones of the papers she chose and how appropriate for this time of year it was with all the browns and creams.  I loved how she put the journaling in the confines of the circular stitching.  So fun!  I am also a sucker for blue: LOVE that color and this page just spoke to me with all it’s happiness!!  I also love the subject manner: family.  This time of year we are thinking about how grateful we are for our families, and what a perfect way to portray that than in a scrapbook page!

Congratulations Hannah!  Watch your e-mail (and don’t forget to check your SPAM folders if you don’t see it!) for a $10 gift card to the Shabby Shoppe …and enjoy your shoppe-ing!  Thanks to all of you out there for posting all the lovely pages in the gallery!  It is always a joy and an inspiration to see what everyone else is creating!

Thanks for checking in with the blog today…the super-talented lego will be here on Wednesday for a fabulous Tips & Tricks post!
