			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21174" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_logo1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_logo1.jpg" alt="" width="275" height="100" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Hello everyone :o)  <em><strong>Shabby Princess</strong></em> here with you today for the final <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> post!  YAY &#8211; we did it &#8211; ANOTHER YEAR <em>scrapped</em> :o) If you have been following along &#8211; you are FINISHED with all of your monthly 2012 layouts/spreads (isn&#8217;t that wonderful?)!  Now, it&#8217;s just time to get the album covers completed&#8230;and the albums/books printed!  SO FUN :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So, before we get started&#8230;if you are new to <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2011/" target="_blank">project SCRAP</a>…<strong><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2011/01/12/project-scrap-twenty-eleven/" target="_blank">THIS POST</a> </strong>is a great place to learn more!  Also, if you click on the <strong><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">PROJECT SCRAP 2012 category</a> </strong><em>(on the right side of the blog)</em>…you can <em>ALWAYS</em> easily find <em>ALL</em> posts related to the subject!  It’s your go-to place if you want to keep up with everything in 2012!  And, as this is our final post for <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> &#8211; I wanted to remind you to be sure and download all of our free templates <em><strong>soon</strong></em> as they will be removed in the coming weeks (they will be available for purchase in <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/homepage.asp" target="_blank">the Shoppe</a> after that). Anyhoo, as a quick little reminder… here is the project in a nutshell:::</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21186" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_logo2" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_logo2.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="213" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So &#8211; back to the <strong>COVERS</strong> &#8211; you have <strong>THREE</strong> options!  I sooooo love all of these!  Kylie and I put these together and I truly cannot choose a favorite!  I love the first option because of the envelope style &#8211; it adds a lot of interest&#8230;and the opportunity to have fun with papers!  Then, I love option two because you get a glimpse into the year with all of the photos on the front!  And, with option three&#8230;I just love the simplicity of it!  So, I give up &#8211; good luck choosing, lol!  Here&#8217;s the good news though &#8211; you can download ALL THREE and then see what works for YOU :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">::::If you wish to <a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=850" target="_blank">download ALL THREE COVER OPTIONS &#8211; CLICK HERE</a> (or you can download them individually below)::::</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=850" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21188" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_previewALL" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_previewALL.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="171" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now&#8230;let&#8217;s get a little more up-close with the three cover options :o)  AND, share some inspiration! Here is <em><strong>COVER OPTION ONE</strong></em>:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">::::<a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=851" target="_blank">CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD</a> (or simply click on the preview image below)::::</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=851" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21175" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview1.jpg" alt="" width="632" height="368" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And a couple of examples that Kylie and I put together! Again, I love the envelope style here&#8230;the side &#8216;flaps&#8217; really draw your eyes to the title block&#8230;and then all of the embellishments add dimension and interest&#8230;and soften the whole look!  Of course, Kylie and I both chose to embellish with flowers&#8230;but you could easily use any elements here!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21176" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples1.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="363" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21178" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples1b" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples1b.jpg" alt="" width="639" height="365" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, for <em><strong>COVER OPTION TWO</strong></em>&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">::::<a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=852" target="_blank">CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD</a> (or simply click on the preview image below)::::</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=852" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21179" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview2" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview2.jpg" alt="" width="635" height="372" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Again, on this one &#8211; I love the addition of the photos &#8211; as they offer a little sneak peek into the year :o) But, you also have the opportunity to have fun with embellishments &#8211; love that :o)  It&#8217;s a great mix!  I chose to add a photo from each month on my cover&#8230;and Kylie opted to add interest with papers!  Really like both looks here :o) As I say (all too often, lol) &#8211; that&#8217;s the beauty of templates&#8230;you are in control of the final look &#8211; it&#8217;s all about a starting point &#8211; then you get to be creative and have fun :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21180" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples2" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples2.jpg" alt="" width="637" height="372" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21181" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples2b" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples2b.jpg" alt="" width="636" height="360" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And, last <em>(but far from least)</em> &#8211; we have <em><strong>COVER OPTION THREE</strong></em>&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">::::<a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=853" target="_blank">CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD</a> (or simply click the preview image below)::::</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shabbyprincess.com/download.asp?link=853" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21182" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview3" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_preview3.jpg" alt="" width="632" height="369" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, if I choose to go with another one of the cover options for MY 2012 album &#8211; I can assure you that THIS ONE will still be worked with at some point&#8230;as I absolutely ADORE it! It&#8217;s super simple &#8211; but has LOTS of room for creativity and extras!  As you can see&#8230;Kylie and I added a few extra elements&#8230;but the covers still have that open and simple look &#8211; thanks to all of the<em> &#8216;white space&#8217;</em>!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21183" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples3" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples3.jpg" alt="" width="636" height="361" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21184" title="sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples3b" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_COVERS_examples3b.jpg" alt="" width="637" height="365" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So, there you have it&#8230;all of our NEW and FUN cover options :o)  And, while time got away from me and I didn&#8217;t get to finalize and print my album before this post &#8211; I want to direct you to last year&#8217;s <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/01/19/wrapping-up-project-scrap-2011-covers/" target="_blank">ALBUM COVER POST</a> as it offers TONS of information (and photos/inspiration/tips) about printing and more :o)  So, <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/01/19/wrapping-up-project-scrap-2011-covers/" target="_blank">BE SURE TO CHECK IT OUT HERE</a> as I&#8217;m sure you will find it helpful as you wrap up your project SCRAP 2012 albums/books!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Of course &#8211; we would LOOOOOVE for you guys to share your final covers AND printed albums with us in the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012 INSPIRATION GALLERY</a>!  I know I personally benefit sooooo much from seeing all of the inspiration!  So, join us and let us see YOURS :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Kylie and I&#8230;and the rest of the team would like to say a <em>heartfelt</em> <strong>THANK YOU</strong> for joining us for another year of project SCRAP :o)  We all love and enjoy it just as much as you guys&#8230;and we depend on it to get our year scrapped, too (<em>believe me, lol</em>)! Even though we will not be featuring regular blog posts on any upcoming project SCRAP years&#8230;Kylie and I still wanted to continue it on our own &#8211; and offer you the tools to do so as well :o) Sooooo, we have been working on a new project SCRAP bundle<em> (it will be bundle 3)</em> for <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/homepage.asp" target="_blank">the Shoppe</a> (hope to have it in the Shoppe within the next week or two&#8230;so stay tuned)! It is definitely my fave so far&#8230;we really worked hard to make it unique <em>and</em> fun <em>and</em> practical&#8230;and we hope you love it as much as we do!  Be sure you are signed up for our <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/faq/afmviewfaq.asp?faqid=60" target="_blank">Shoppe newsletter</a>&#8230;as I plan to offer the new bundle at a HUGE discount for a <em>very limited time</em> when I release it!  You&#8217;ll want to be sure you get that newsletter so you don&#8217;t miss out :o)  We are doing that as a THANK YOU to all of you ladies who have scrapped along with us over the past two years!  I&#8217;ll tell you that I <em>HOPE</em> to check-in every now and then throughout the year to share some of my pages and to help motivate you guys (here at the blog)&#8230;just no promises on how often or when, etc. :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">With that&#8230;I guess we are officially &#8216;wrapped-up&#8217; for <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> :o)  It&#8217;s definitely bittersweet to end another project &#8211; but mostly&#8230;just a wonderful feeling of completion &#8211; I hope you all agree!  <strong>HAVE FUN SCRAPPING</strong>&#8230;and many thanks for joining us :o)  Have a WONDERFUL weekend&#8230;<strong>XOXO &#8212; SP :o)</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Hey guys :o)  <strong>SP</strong> here with you today&#8230;with a much <em>happier</em> post than the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2013/01/13/a-big-blog-announcement/" target="_blank">last one</a> I shared :o)  So&#8230;how AWESOME does it feel to be at the <em>end</em> (well, <em>almost</em>) of <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">2012&#8242;s project SCRAP</a>?!  IF you have kept up with us&#8230;then you basically have your entire twenty twelve album FINISHED :o)  All that is left are the covers (and then printing, of course)!  No worries&#8230;we&#8217;ll be sharing those covers with you next week (and they are gorgeous&#8230;I think you&#8217;ll <em><strong>love</strong></em> them)!  And, if you haven&#8217;t been keeping up&#8230;then this is your chance to download ALL of the templates before they are gone (don&#8217;t worry&#8230;they&#8217;ll still be up for a bit)&#8230;and to get CAUGHT UP before we are too deep into 2013 :o)  There really is still time!  Even if you are several months behind&#8230;<strong>YOU CAN DO IT</strong> :o)  Trust me when I say that it feels so good to have another year scrapped, well&#8230;<em>mostly</em> (yeah, I still have a few extra pages to work on)&#8230;and to <em>NOT</em> have that feeling like, <em>oh dear&#8230;I am going to forget all of these memories and details before I ever get the photos scrapped</em> (I&#8217;m sure you know just what I&#8217;m talking about, lol)!  There will <em>ALWAYS</em> be more photos and layouts to scrap (oh how I know this to be true, lol)&#8230;but to get all of the &#8216;big&#8217; stuff and memories scrapped &#8216;in the moment&#8217; (or close to the moment)&#8230;and before all is forgotten&#8230;that is huge!  And&#8230;again, <em>KNOWING</em> that there will always be the next huge event <em>or</em> birthday <em>or</em> holiday (or whatever) to scrap&#8230;it&#8217;s best to stay as current as possible&#8230;or at some point &#8211; it will all just be too overwhelming to &#8216;go back&#8217; and &#8216;catch-up&#8217; :o)  <em><strong>Right?</strong></em> :o)  Anyhoo &#8211; that&#8217;s my pep talk for today&#8230;but I truly believe in what I say&#8230;because I&#8217;ve lived it (<em>both ways</em>, lol) &#8211; and just love feeling like I am &#8216;on top&#8217; of my scrapping (for the most part)!  You will, too!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So&#8230;with all of that said&#8230;let&#8217;s get to the <em><strong>December</strong></em> pages :o)  If you missed them &#8211; be sure to <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/12/13/project-scrap-nov-check-in-dec-templates-2/" target="_blank">download them HERE</a>!  They are gorgeous and so perfect for all of your holiday photos!  I&#8217;m sure that many of you are like me&#8230;and ended up with LOTS of EXTRA photos to scrap in December&#8230;it&#8217;s just that kind of month, eh?!  So, I still have to work on some &#8216;extra pages&#8217; &#8211; and just tried to get an assortment of photos on the template layouts!  With these pages&#8230;I really like the idea of using the &#8216;multi-photo&#8217; page to duplicate for more December/holiday photos.  <em>Did that make sense?  </em>So&#8230;if you have lots of extra photos like me&#8230;just take that multi-photo page and use it again twice to make another two page spread.  It gives you LOTS of spots for photos&#8230;and you could even rotate to give them a &#8216;new&#8217; look!  Just an idea if you would like to fit  in more photos (that rings true for just about any of our templates/months) :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Alrighty&#8230;so let&#8217;s move on to some <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">inspiration</a> :o)  I&#8217;ve included quite a bit here as there was no way to choose favorites!  I did leave some in the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">gallery</a> for you to find on your own, lol &#8211; and you&#8217;ll definitely want to as they are <em><strong>GORGEOUS</strong></em>!  It&#8217;s always so fun for me to see the different ways in which we all interpret the templates :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">As I said&#8230;my pages are just a mish-mash of the month&#8230;we had Christmas and a big family vacation to the mountains and <em>LOTS</em> of other stuff going on&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21071" title="sp_shoppeBLOG_scrap2012_decCHECKin_LOs1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/sp_shoppeBLOG_scrap2012_decCHECKin_LOs1.jpg" alt="" width="630" height="356" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Hi all!!  <em><strong>Kylie</strong></em> here! :o)  &#8230;and with a double-the-fun <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">projectSCRAP</a> post!  Yes, I&#8217;m here with a little <strong>&#8216;November check-in</strong>&#8216; scrapping inspiration and to also share the shiny new <strong>December templates</strong>!  See, double-the-fun&#8230;but I&#8217;ll try and keep it short and sweet today.  As we all know this time of year gets a little, <em>do I dare say it</em> &#8211; hectic!!  But that&#8217;s the best thing about projectSCRAP &#8211; a set of quick and easy-to-scrap templates to keep you scrapping on track&#8230;even when the hustle and bustle of the holiday season surrounds us.  And surely, the fact that we&#8217;ve almost completed our 2012 albums is the perfect motivation to keep on <em>keeping-on</em> and not fall behind on the homestretch.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So how are you going with your November pages &#8211; have you scrapped them yet?  Here are my pages&#8230;following that some gorgeousness from SP and several of the sweet pages that have hit <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">the projectSCRAP 2012 gallery</a> recently.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I always have so much going on in November and scrapping my monthly snap-shot is always so much fun!  ahhh, the memories&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20662" title="layouts by kylie" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_scrap2012_nov_inspiration2.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="354" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">SP&#8217;s pages highlight her busy November perfectly.  Everyday pics, special times &#8211; special treats, the ups &amp; downs&#8230;and a marvellous sunset.  Gorgeous!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20663" title="layouts by sp" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_scrap2012_nov_inspiration1.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="357" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Kim&#8217;s fresh fall combination of green and gold, with her sepia-style photos, is stunning!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20664" title="layouts by kim" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_scrap2012_nov_inspiration5.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="355" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It&#8217;s obvious that Rosy styled her paper choices with all those wonderful family photographs in mind - amazing scrapping!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20665" title="layouts by rosy" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_scrap2012_nov_inspiration3.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="356" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And Amber&#8217;s spread is pure autumnal splendor!  And along with the other ladies&#8217; pages, I&#8217;m loving all the creative &#8216;November&#8217; title work.  So many great ideas!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20666" title="layouts by amber" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_scrap2012_nov_inspiration4.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="356" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Extra-gorgeous scrapping huh?!!  I could just pour over &amp; over the details for the longest time!  &#8230;but time now to jump into this month&#8217;s templates&#8230;YAY!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20667" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/sp_blog_projectSCRAP2012_monthlyGRAPHIC.jpg" alt="" width="536" height="104" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I think this template set might be my favourite so far this year and I can&#8217;t wait to fill them full of December FUN!!  Hope you enjoy them too! :o)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">HELLO :o) <strong>SP </strong>here today&#8230;for the <strong>OCTOBER </strong><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> check-in!  Did i really just type <strong>OCTOBER</strong>?!  lol!  That means that we are halfway through November now, right?!  How, oh how, can that be?!  As my mom would say&#8230;<em><strong>&#8220;I dunno, it just is what it is&#8221;</strong></em> lol! I guess so :o)  But <em>&#8216;what it is&#8217;</em> is <em><strong>nuts</strong></em>! Thanksgiving will be here in no time&#8230;and while I am completely UNprepared for it (don&#8217;t even get me started on Christmas, lol)&#8230;I am <em>at least</em> up-to-date on my project SCRAP layouts, LOLOL!  There&#8217;s a little consolation for me, right?! Hey, it actually is a really good thing &#8211; because NORMALLY, i would be behind on both scrapping AND holidays &#8211; so I&#8217;m actually ahead of the game here, lolol!  And while I can&#8217;t help you guys with your Thanksgiving and holiday plans (trust me, you wouldn&#8217;t want my help anyway)&#8230;I can TRY to help keep you on track with your <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">2012 scrapping</a>!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Sooooo, how are we all doing?!  I know that I am up-to-date with my monthly pages&#8230;but still need to add some two-page spreads here and there to cover other events and memories :o)  I told myself i would do those monthly&#8230;and for some, i have &#8211; but not all! There, I admitted it&#8230;I feel better now :o)  I mean, they WILL get done in time &#8211; it will just be a race-to-the-finish, as per usual, lol!  Hopefully you guys have kept up with the &#8216;extras&#8217; better than me :o) And, if you have no extra pages to add&#8230;then hopefully you are current with your layouts!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Let&#8217;s check out our <em><strong>October</strong></em> layouts :o)  If you missed them &#8211; NO WORRIES&#8230;you can <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/10/18/project-scrap-october-templates-2/" target="_blank">download them HERE</a>!  They are wonderful, and so easy to scrap with!  Our October was all over the place, lol!  We enjoyed a lot of family time together&#8230;lots of sports and outdoor fun&#8230;games, school and plenty more! I also had to say goodbye to my wonderful old PC, which completely died on me&#8230;and have been trying to get used to my new mac since then (which I&#8217;m loving&#8230;but hey &#8211; the transition hasn&#8217;t been pleasant, lol)! So, my pages just loosely reflect all of these things, along with the journaling :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19907" title="sp_blog_scrap2012_october_inspiration1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/sp_blog_scrap2012_october_inspiration1.jpg" alt="" width="632" height="354" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank">Amber&#8217;s</a> adorable pages really illustrate October for me :o) These layouts have it all &#8211; and I LOOOOVE them!  Perfect photos and papers and elements &#8211; and just the right mix of everything! Really, totally adore these (no doubt you will, too)!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">hi there :o) <strong>SP </strong>here today&#8230;for the <strong>SEPTEMBER </strong><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> check-in!  Can you guys <em>feel</em> the start of the &#8216;holiday&#8217; season yet? Dear me &#8211; I know it&#8217;s been that way in the retail world for a while now, lol&#8230;but schedule-wise, school-wise and everything else&#8230;it&#8217;s <em>HERE</em>, lol!  That means that life is going to get crazy in the next couple of months&#8230;but thanks to our little <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a>&#8230;we&#8217;ll can still fit in our scrapping and stay caught-up!  Not to mention &#8211; we will most likely have LOTS of pics to scrap with, lol&#8230;so that&#8217;s a good thing :o) Wow, just think about it&#8230;if you&#8217;ve completed your September pages&#8230;then you only have <strong>THREE</strong> months left (and a cover)!  It has certainly been flying by&#8230;and I know I&#8217;m so excited to have another album at the end of this year!  It&#8217;s like a <del>huge</del> small miracle for me, lol! Before <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP</a>, my albums were all over the place and certainly NEVER up-to-date!  So, this has been a huge blessing to me&#8230;and because of the blog and the group <em>feel</em> of the project &#8211; I have great motivation to keep up :o)  I really appreciate that (and need that extra push)! Anyhoo &#8211; I&#8217;m rambling, lol&#8230;but just happy to have my album&#8230;and such a great group of scrappers to share with :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Back to the topic at hand, lol!  Let&#8217;s check in on the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/09/20/project-scrap-september-templates-2/" target="_blank">SEPTEMBER<strong> </strong>templates</a> and some of the amazing layouts from the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012 inspiration gallery</a>! If you missed the September templates &#8211; no worries, you can still download them <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/09/20/project-scrap-september-templates-2/" target="_blank">HERE</a>!  We&#8217;ll begin with my pages&#8230;I&#8217;ll be honest&#8230;I took <em>like</em> NO pictures in September&#8230;I mean <em>NONE</em>, lol!  The only reason I have the pics below is because we &#8216;babysat&#8217; my parents&#8217; puppy dog&#8230;and I had to send them pictures daily so they knew he was having a great time, lolol! That&#8217;s why my pages are a wee bit &#8216;dog heavy&#8217; ROFL!  Well, I also included kit previews as in all honesty&#8230;the new product release last month really dominated my time (well, for the past few months actually, lol) along with school!  I&#8217;ll use myself as an example&#8230;so you can see that you do not always have to have all the pics&#8230;and you <em>can </em>substitute other things into your layouts &#8211; be creative and make <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP</a> work for <strong>YOU</strong> and <strong>your photos</strong>!  There truly is no right or wrong here (thank Goodness &#8211; &#8217;cause I know I don&#8217;t need the added pressure, lolol)!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=1&amp;username=shabbyprincess" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19359" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration1.jpg" alt="" width="634" height="349" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Let&#8217;s just say that when I first saw <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank">Amber&#8217;s</a> main page in the gallery &#8211; I nearly melted, lol!  Little Mallie is toooooo precious for words&#8230;and there is just something about that photo?!  The angle&#8230;the smiling eyes&#8230;the hair &#8211; just pure sweetness! And&#8230;the other pics &#8211; the family portrait&#8230;the &#8216;ghost&#8217; pics&#8230;awesome!  of course, the scrapping rocks, too &#8211; lol!  Thanks so much for sharing, Amber :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19360" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration2" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration2.jpg" alt="" width="637" height="365" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Same thing with <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8305&amp;username=five17creations" target="_blank">Kim&#8217;s pages</a>!  That main photo with the dolls&#8230;the <em><strong>PERFECT</strong> </em>little girl birthday photo, lol!  And all the rest of the silly and sweet pics make me smile!  Also &#8211; really impressed with how she combined <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/prodview.asp?idProduct=419" target="_blank">Penelope</a> and <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/prodview.asp?idProduct=420" target="_blank">Memory Lane</a>&#8230;clever, and the result is gorgeous :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8305&amp;username=five17creations" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19361" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration3" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration3.jpg" alt="" width="635" height="363" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, if there was ever <em>any</em> doubt <em>(there wasn&#8217;t)</em> that I hope to visit Kylie one day&#8230;well, that main photo fixed that, lolol!  BEAUTIFUL!  And all of the birthday treat/party pics&#8230;total Kylie perfection!  Had to smile when I saw she had some puppy dog pics, too lolol!  GREAT PHOTOS and there is just a glow to the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=7068&amp;username=kylie-j" target="_blank">pages</a> :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=7068&amp;username=kylie-j" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19362" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration4" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration4.jpg" alt="" width="630" height="359" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Finally&#8230;sweet <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8863&amp;username=rosy" target="_blank">Rosy&#8217;s pages</a> :o)  You guys know how much I always love Rosy&#8217;s photography skills&#8230;and that main photo illustrates it perfectly for me!  No faces&#8230;just a &#8216;feel&#8217; from the photo&#8230;LOOOOVE!  Really enjoy the way she tells the story with the photos!  BRILLIANT&#8230;thanks, Rosy :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8863&amp;username=rosy" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19363" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration5" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_SeptemberInspiration5.jpg" alt="" width="634" height="358" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I wish I could fit <em><strong>ALL</strong> </em>of the GORGEOUS September pages in here&#8230;but it would have made for one LONG blog post, lolol!  So, please don&#8217;t forget that there are always <em><strong>MORE</strong> </em>layouts to enjoy in the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012 gallery</a> &#8211; take a peek as no doubt they will help you to get started on your own pages!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Also, here is a quick little peek at <em><strong>October&#8217;s</strong> </em>templates!  Kylie will be sharing them with you <em><strong>next</strong> </em>Thursday :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19364" title="sp_BLOG_projectSCRAP_octSNEAKpeek" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/sp_BLOG_projectSCRAP_octSNEAKpeek.jpg" alt="" width="402" height="255" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">hey guys :o) <strong>SP </strong>here today&#8230;for the <strong>AUGUST</strong> <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/category/project-scrap-2012/" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012</a> check-in!  For most of us, August is a transition month &#8211; whether you are transitioning from summer break to the start of school&#8230;or one season to another &#8211; it&#8217;s just one of those BUSY months!  Because, it seems like no matter what the transition is&#8230;it ALWAYS involves a lot of extra time and work, lol!  Hmmmm, or perhaps it&#8217;s just me?  <em>Goodness I hope not!  </em>Like many of you&#8230;our August was spent enjoying the last bit of &#8216;free time&#8217; before school started&#8230;ya know &#8211; trying to squeeze out every possible bit of fun, lol!  My boys did some traveling while I stayed home and worked (great mommy time&#8230;though time away from my boys is never easy for me&#8230;no matter how old they get, lol)&#8230;and then, of course &#8211; we had lots of wonderful family time together as well!  And, since I&#8217;m still doing lots and lots of work (more on that soon, smiles)&#8230;I&#8217;ll stop rambling and get to the point of the post here, lol!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So, for our check-in today, we&#8217;ll be peeking at the <strong>AUGUST </strong>templates and some of the amazing layouts from the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012 inspiration gallery</a>! If you missed the August templates &#8211; no worries, you can still download them <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/index.php/2012/08/23/project-scrap-august-templates-2/" target="_blank">HERE</a>!   We&#8217;ll start with my pages&#8230;which are kinda &#8216;all-over-the-place&#8217; lol!  Such a mish-mash of photos and colors&#8230;but I think I am <em>finally</em> happy with the end result (though it seemed a long road getting to that point, he he)!  It&#8217;s funny&#8230;I am <em>DEATHLY</em> afraid of frogs&#8230;I mean like you wouldn&#8217;t believe&#8230;so taking the pic of the frog was so hard for me (thank Goodness for zoom lenses)&#8230;but nowhere near as difficult as having it in front of me in photoshop as I worked on these layouts for so long, LOLOL!  <em>Seriously&#8230;</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19051" title="SP_blog_projectSCRAP2012_august_SPlayouts" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/SP_blog_projectSCRAP2012_august_SPlayouts.jpg" alt="" width="629" height="362" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, how about <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=7068&amp;username=kylie-j" target="_blank">Kylie&#8217;s HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY pages</a>?  I swear, the girls look soooooo grown-up here&#8230;and so gorgeous!  Looks like some fun auntie/niece time&#8230;and adorable layouts to boot :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=7068&amp;username=kylie-j" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19052" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration1" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration1.jpg" alt="" width="631" height="355" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Loving <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8305&amp;username=five17creations" target="_blank">Kim&#8217;s layouts</a> (nothing new there, lol)!  I enjoyed reading her description about the color palette as I felt the same way with mine this month&#8230;and as per usual &#8211; we seemed to be on the same &#8216;page&#8217; with some of our paper/embellishment choices, lol!  So fun :o)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8305&amp;username=five17creations" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19053" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration2" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration2.jpg" alt="" width="632" height="359" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Sweet <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank">Amber</a> rocked the August templates, too!  Everything is perfect here&#8230;but especially the choice of the golden damask paper &#8211; it just highlights all of the photos beautifully!  Always look forward to <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank">Amber&#8217;s gallery</a>!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8722&amp;username=amber" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19054" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration3" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration3.jpg" alt="" width="632" height="357" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Finally, we have <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8863&amp;username=rosy" target="_blank">Rosy&#8217;s layouts</a>&#8230;totally enjoying the dark blue/yellow color palette, and the subtle changes and additions she made (they really work so well!)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=8863&amp;username=rosy" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19055" title="SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration4" src="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/SP_ProjectScrap_2012_AugustInspiration4.jpg" alt="" width="635" height="358" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So, I think that will do it for inspiration today!  Of course, there are <em><strong>MORE</strong> </em>layouts to enjoy in the <a href="http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=949" target="_blank">project SCRAP 2012 gallery</a> &#8211; so be sure to take a peek&#8230;I have no doubt that you will find yourself <em><strong>INSPIRED</strong> </em>:o)</p>
