Christmas Has Come Early. . . CHA Sneak Peek!

After countless requests we have decided to re-release our most popular collection to date — Christmas Past. What a better way to re-release the collection by adding four new papers which includes eight new designs, we are proud to introduce our Deluxe Edition Christmas Past collection! This 16 sheet double-sided paper collection will also be available in 12x12 and 8x8 Paper Pads.

Here's a taste of just one of the new designs, Visions of Sugar Plums!



That's pretty exciting, right?!?! Be sure to keep your eyes peeled on our blog for more Deluxe Edition Christmas Past images and more summer CHA sneak peeks. Look for this collection in your local scrapbook store early August.

Happy Papercrafting!

Hi all!
It's been a while, well I have been super busy creating and send off projects for submissions to see what happens. I am also going back to work, it is wonderful being a stay at home wife but I feel like I need to be back at work. This means my whole schedule is going to be changing and a new one will take its place. I am excited to be out there again and just maybe I will have even more creative ideas to share.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful life as I am.
Thanks so much for listening and stopping by.
Love
Laura De La Rosa

G45 LO { Our Journey }

This 12x12 LO that expresses our new journey in life when I married my husband. I used a zipper and tore the papers to reveal the image of our wedding photo as a new chapter in our lives and as a reminder of all the layers we had to go through to get to where we are today! I also used Tulle and pearls tied on the luggage: as we moved to our new home together.
