Beach Memories with At The Lighthouse

Hi! I blew the power source in my PC so was out of commission for awhile. Was just working with a new kit called At The Lighthouse by Myst Designs so thought I'd share a couple layouts with you. Here is a preview of the kit:

If you like what you see, you can find the kit by following this link: http://tiny.cc/MystDesignsStores Here's my first page:

This background was so pretty - like a painting - I wanted to leave as much as possible exposed. Loved the frame too, so just added elements to the background, trying to keep the mood of a painting overall. That's my son in the photo.

The one above I'm calling OBX (Outer Banks Experience for those not familiar with North Carolina beaches). It's one of my son's favorite places to vacation. And, since Jeremy (son) does like to meet his friends In NC for parties, I made up this party invitation card front:

What do you think?

Way behind & sales, sales, new products

Forgot to post this earlier:

Creative Souls Alice ATC swap

I'm a member of the Creative ATC Swap group at Creative Souls http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&pver=6&ar=CLinks and last month participated in the Alice In Wonderland swap. My partner was the talented Patti Koosed. This is the ATC she created for me:

I couldn't decide if I wanted to go traditional or play with an idea I had for an Emo Alice so I did both. I'm on my laptop at the moment so only have access to the traditional one. I created this using the Wonderland digital scrapbook kit by Scrappers Delight.

I call it Alice In Thought.
