~~~
and now for the spoils of our treasure hunting adventures, tyarrr maty!
this first one is from siberie in Japan. she was inspired to leave us a comment with a link to her adorable page when she read about mandie in our latest sassafras pal spotlight, and we're so happy she did! siberie has all kinds of goodness for you to feast your eyes on. this little jewel with tasty morsels of cherry delicious, sweet marmalade, and sunshine lollipop just popped right off the page when we saw it:
mammascrapper's gallery at two peas is a pure garden of delight. that's where we discovered this piece made with the march studio calico kit....i just love all of the gorgeous handmade detail (those doilies!), mixed so perfectly with the sapphire paper from cherry delicious and sparkly apple jack glitter stickers:
rachel mackin, aka fizzpopbang, fills her world with sassafrassy treasures to die for! this amazing 3d project full of the happy pals and candyland colors of nerdy bird just about knocked me out of my chair when i saw it. it's so awesome!
and i can't help but throw in one more nerdy bird project, this time by shimelle. i just love how she used bits of lace and black & white photos with nerdy bird to create a layout that perfectly infuses both joy and sophistication.
here's shimelle's comment for this layout at her two peas gallery:
"I love the colours in the Nerdy Bird line from Sassafras Lass! At first I worried that the designs would be too juvenile for scrapping child-free pages, but the b-sides are versatile patterns that work for a range of themes. I loved these colours as an alternative to the traditional pastel colours of Easter accents, and I was amazed at just how many sticker strips come in the banner set. Enough to appear on plenty of projects! To create the dotted border strip, I stamped the polka dots on a white chipboard strip, then sprayed it with Glimmer Mists to get a colour that would match the stickers perfectly..."
That's all for now friends. What are your thoughts?
Now that we've made room in our treasure trunk, we're ready to start stocking it up again for some future features...so leave us a link if you have project to share!
Great inspiration!

I ordered the Peachy Cheap deal. I have been looking for papers for my little boy's scrapbook and his name is Jack so it had to be the Apple Jack collection. I can not wait to get started.

these are fantastic! i'm with shimelle, because while it's fun to do the kiddie stuff (and so MUCH of it - YUM!), it's fantastic that there are FUN neutral patterns on the flipsides of these pages.
i grabbed the Apple Jack bundle from Peachy Cheap yesterday, and have been showing my Sass the love lately!
