Wine Tasting in Chianti

As you may remember from a couple of months ago, I went to Italy. We were in the Chianti region which is famous for their Chianti Classico wine. So of course we had to go wine tasting. The one picture was taken at a local restaurant called Machiavelli, named so due to its famous visitor Niccolo Machiavelli, who was an Italian historian, politician, and writer in the 16th century. Much wine was consumed there. The other picture was taken at an independent San Giovese vineyard called Pomona. San Giovese grapes are the kind of grapes used to make Chianti Classico wine. We had samplings of their wine and olive oil and got to take a tour with a brief history lesson. Now, about the page. The "wine tasting" diecut is available at Picture This. The label is Lawn Fawn. The glasses are Memory Box. And the paper is Scrapbook Customs.

Colin 6 mos -Swagger

This is my adorable nephew Colin. He had his first photo shoot done at 6 months old by his mama who happens to be a photographer. For this page I used embellishments from Kaiser Craft "Mister Fox" Collectibles, Amy Tangerine "Match" alphabet chipboard stickers, and Fancy Pants Swagger line "Gallant" & "Humorous". Easy, peesy, and adorable.

First thing I gotta say is that I love this background paper.  It's from Fancy Pants and it's adorable. This is the first sample page that I made during our girls night at the Green Haven Retreat, so it's not my favorite but still post worthy.

Here is another old page that I've had in my scrap pile for a while. I'm sorry to say that I can't give you any detail about this page except that I THINK that the background paper is Basic Gray.

I hope that everyone had a great Saturday despite the negative temperatures. Picture This had their Craft Fair today and there were some great vendors there selling awesome stuff that'd be great for Christmas presents.

Also, early this morning I became an aunt!! :) My husband and I now have a nephew!!

Have a great rest of your weekend!

This is a page I made using the Meadowlark collection from MME. The collection is a couple if years old.

This was made a few years ago after my mom's 50th birthday. I used Moxxie paper, again a few years old, and diecuts made from the Pazzle at the store.

I'm in love with this new line from Pebbles called Lakeside. The store got this line in a few weeks ago and I was lucky enough to be there and of course I had to buy one of each sheet from the line. It's the perfect paper to go with a page if you're scrapping about camping or anything outdoors-y.

I know, I know. You all see Halloween and you're thinking "that is SO last month". I can't help it. I have to post this page; it was one of the samples I worked on at our girl's night. But I made it on October 28th. I already had things I wanted to post through the end of October, it would just be too hard to find time to rearrange my posts and type up this one in three days. EXCUSES. I'm done with them now. Now just look at this page and go make it! Here's the products:

My Mind's Eye- "The Spider's Web Accessory Kit"

The PT Posse had a scrap night at the Green Haven Retreat located behind Picture This at the end of October. The place is amazing. Its such a beautiful property and so relaxing.

Oh Baby

Here is another page sample for you all that will be displayed in the store as soon as we get our new shipment of American Craft paper. The duck paper and the two cards in the bottom right corner are Crate Paper from the Little Boy Blue collection. When we get our new shipment in, this paper may be moving from the American Craft section to the Baby section, so this page will ultimately end up in the Baby Boy section when that happens.
