Check it out!

I'm baaaaaack! It's been totally insane here, but we are one step closer to having a REAL house! CARPET!!!! Oh, sweet carpet. Lovely, fluffy, new, pristine carpet. Love it!

On to more exciting things!

If you haven't seen the new challenge posted over on the Noel Mignon Challenge blog, be sure to check it out. Here is the inspiration photo I chose to use! I'm not much of a plaid person, I must admit, but I'm liking that kick of red in there with those neutrals and pale blue!



Anywho, here is my layout for this week's challenge. I loved the inspiration colors that Greta came up with! What an awesome idea!



This layout is the first in a great big series of layouts I'm gonna be doing about the new house. And since we'll be working on this place until the day we die, that's gonna be one big series!

I used the Sweet Sue Kit (hurry, only 12 left!) along with some goodies from my own stash. I LOVE that calendar journaling tag - what a great base for a title, huh?



I have been on an accordion flower binge lately, and decided to make a banner with them instead this time. I used the Basic Grey Adrian paper from the kit for those, and the star pins (minus the pokey part!) for the tops. Be sure you use a glue gun on these, they get a little wild!



So go on and see what you come up with! Me? I'm gonna go lie on the new carpet. And stroke it. And profess my love. Squishy squishy carpet.....

Hangin' in there...

Okay peeps. I'm here. Sorta. Today is the first day that I am home at 11 am.

AND IT FEELS GOOD!!!!!!

But I must clarify that I am only home right now, and not back at the Winters house repainting my soon-to-be studio (another story, another time) because Eric has hijacked my car. And I am therefore totally and completely on my own. I'm refraining from handling sharp objects, chewing gum and walking, and generally anything that could lead to tragedy.

It occurs to me now as I am watching Flipping Out on Bravo On Demand that I am #1) In love with this show, #2) I totally need to get to work.

Tomorrow is my day to post over at NoelMignon.com, so I'm gonna get my ass in gear and get something made!!!!

I'll post house pics as soon as I can convince Eric to be in at least ONE of them. Men...

Hot Fun in the Summer Time!!!

Guess who's having a crop? That's right - over at NoelMignon.com we're going to be basking in the sunshine for a whole week! It's gonna be great - lots of challenges and fun to be had!

ALSO! I'll be teaching my 'My Growing Up' mini book class right smack in the middle of it on the 10th and 11th, so be sure to sign up for a great time - there are only three kits left!

My Growing Up Book Class!

You heard right! I'm teaching this class over at the NoelMignon.com forum on August 10th and 11th.



Here's the details:

I have made up 5 full kits with everything you need to make this mini album and lemme just tell you, there is a TON of product in there!



$55 plus shipping for the kit and instructions.

$20 for instructions only.

The class will happen over two nights on August 10th and 11th. I will have instructions/videos/pictures posted in the class's forum at noelmignon.com and will be available from 6pm - 10pm both nights to email, pm, and skype with any questions you may have. The forum will be available to you as soon as you sign up, and after the class as well so that you can make your mini at your own pace if you want.



It's gonna be a great time! Hope to see you there!!

Tighten your ties, it's time for an Office Party!!!!

I can personally attest to the yumminess in this kit - Basic Grey, My Mind's Eye, Pink Paislee, 7 Gypsies, and so many more! You better hop on over and take a look!

Here's a layout I did the other day for the Ad Challenge over on the blog.

It's nice to try something a little different every now and then, too, dontcha think? So enough already. Head on over to NoelMignon.com and get your very own Office Party kit, and then hop over to the blogs and get going!!

This is your brain on crack...

If this isn't an advertisement for advocating a good night's sleep to your kids, I don't know what is...

Sorry for the little yellie parts - I'm having some issues with my webcam. We're not exactly on speaking terms at the moment...



Team Jacob.

Play this in case of summer dullness!

I find myself playing this over and over, so I thought I'd post it here for you all to enjoy!

Hope you love it - it's like summer in a bottle for me!

This is me.

Hi. I don't think we've been properly introduced. See I'm Brittny - Britt for short. I go by Britt because, well, nobody ever spells the whole thing right. I always get asked if my name is spelled correctly, even after I've just written it myself. So Britt works.

Anyway. I started making these quick little videos for NoelMignon.com's kit club when I was accepted to the DT at the beginning of this month. And I'm liking it. So I've decided to start sharing them here with you.

And this is me. It's so weird to see a video of someone when you've only seen stills of them before. And let's face it, the photos I post of myself are the best ones I can get. The videos however are complete with double chins, wiry flyaway hair, and sometimes even a little too much cleavage. If you know me you know that sometimes I just can't keep the girls in line. I try. I really do. But sometimes there is still a severe case of inappropriocity.

Blanket appology.

So here's the damn video already. Hope you like it. Let me know if there's anything you want to learn how to do - maybe I'll make a video out of it!
