Project Millie's Life : June Week 1 / Week 36

This month I am determined to be up-to-date with Millie's album, and the Scraptastic A Day in the Life kit was just what I needed to get my bum in gear!

The numbered journaling card is color coordinated with the corresponding photo using matching sequins.  



Love the stamp by Ormolu (exclusive to Scraptastic)- I see myself using it all the time!

Layout: So Much Sweetness

I have loved every scrap of my Scraptastic Kit Club Destination Unknown kit. This LilyBee Design paper is so lovely and the tiny hearts are just perfection on paper!

Layout: Three Special Pillows and You

This is another layout using the Destination Unknown kit from Scraptastic kit Club. I loved this kit! 
The blog challenge that inspired this layout was the "Opposites Attract" challenge- I combined the neon sequins and softer colors and white to add the concept of opposites to this page. 

Here you can see the fan-tab-u-lous After The Storm stamps up close.

Layout: Singin' In The Rain

Millie's first Merle Fest was a rainy one. Per usual, the weather was perfect on the festival days during the work week and rainy on the weekend when I could attend. Despite rain, Millie enjoyed a few hours of music, dancing, and free yogurt samples. (Boy, did she love those samples!)

I cut apart the Echo Park journaling card paper from my May Scraptastic kit and layered the cards to create the look of various patterned paper.

Monday Meals: Fresh Veggies + Penne + Goat Cheese

Inspired by a recipe on Pinterest, I decided to combine some of my recent market and co-op purchases into one dish. I picked up the organic zucchini and spinach at a local co-op last week and had purchased some plain goat cheese a couple weeks ago at the open air market in town. It was lacking spice and needs a bit of a kick, but my spice cabinet is lacking. 
Approximate recipe: 
1 cup penne pasta (uncooked) 
2 cups spinach
3 small zucchini 
2 Tbsp goat cheese 
Fresh ground pepper 

What are your go to spices? 

Layout: First Dance

This layout was inspired by the Scraptastic Sketch Challenge on their blog. I used scraps from past kits and my stash. The twine is by Ormolu - I have had it for a while and LOVE the sparkle it adds.
