Summertime Blues

From the signs in the weather it looks like summer will soon be coming to an end and although I am looking forward to fall, I really have enjoyed the sun this summer. For the first time in 4 years I have worn shorts, {I have issues with my legs} and I made a point of wear skirts. I have gone to the river and ocean and have tried to make it a memorable summer. With all that is going on, my blog has been slower than normal. There has been a certain lack of creations. But I feel like soon that is going to change. Soon the rains will come and the fire will be lit and in me the need to create will resurface.

In the mean time, 3 Scrappy boys is having a couple of really cool challenges, one is creating with white and another is creating with no pattern paper. This layout accomplishes both. With every layout entered there is a chance to win some fantastic products. So you should join us. Also we have a back to school crop on the 9th of September and we are gonna be croppin all weekend long so mark your calenders.
How, you ask, did I created that embossed border on 12x12 paper?
With my kitchen rolling pin, you can see my picture tutorial here.
This layout was created using almost all Core-dinations white wash collection.
This stuff is so devine!!
