:: love this ::

Each Sunday in the Paper Issues {Friends & Fans} Facebook group we feature a layout and encourage you to Scrap Lift it!  This is my take on the most recent ScrapLiftSunday layout by Aleksandra Gadji.

I used a bunch of Pink Paislee's Cedar Lane collection -- they were perfect for this sunset layout!

It's a Sketchy Saturday FEATURES day on the Paper Issues blog.

Here's my take on the sketch using Dear Lizzy's Documentary collection.

This layout is based on a project by Jen Chapin that she made for Crate Paper.  Paper Issues turned it into a sketch, a challenge, and a chance to win a gift card to The Paper Issues Store (check out the details here).   Here's Jen's project, and the sketch:

There is still plenty of time to get in on the action! You have until November 12th to add your project based on the sketch to the Challenge Album in the Paper Issues {Friends & Fans} Facebook group!

I absolutely love product spotlights on the Paper Issues blog!  This spotlight is no exception.  We grabbed Pink Paislee's Cedar Lane collection and got busy!

From the Cedar Lane collection, I grabbed a couple of patterned papers, the ephemera pack, and the 6x6 pad.  I also grabbed some bits from the September Swag Bag, and created this layout about the perfect marshmallow roasting with family! 

Seriously, this PaperPOP (available here) by Parker on the Porch is perfect for this LO!  (Don't tell anyone, but I may have had this particular little guy in mind when I took the photo)!

Be sure to check out the other projects on the blog!  There are new items in the Paper Issues Store -- so many beautiful things -- check them out, grab what you need and use the code 'orangegearle' to save 20% off your entire order!

See you soon!
