Tiff -Basic Grey always has great embellies that coordinate with their collections! The wood buttons, die-cuts, and epoxy brads make perfect accents for your layouts.
|
Joann -They keep bringing out these lines and I keep falling for them. They’re not what I usually use for my layouts but the color contrast would work great on some pictures I have from when Nelson and I (my now husband) were just dating. Brings a smile to my face everytime. |
Jaclyn -This collection’s got a more mature vibe than the usual valentine’s offerings. I’m totally digging the ephemeral vibe of it all. (LOVE the die cuts and transparencies! I love to layer, and these will help create a really unique look!) |
Leo -I really like the play with the pink and brown in this collection. I hope my honey bunny makes me something with this. Now to get a honey bunny hmmm…. |
|
 |
Joann -I love the beach. Wait, let me reword that: I LOVE THE BEACH! haha, there much better. Most people have picnics at a park, I have them by the ocean. And what’s great is that these colors go with either setting. I really like it. |
Jaclyn -Sunday Picnic: Each year, my family has this giant picnic at the lake, back home. If there are at least 3 batches of macaroni salad, you got the right place! It takes me back to when I was little, and the siblings and cousins and I would run and play, seeing how close we could get to the water before all the parents start yelling “get back from there!” I really need to get up North for one soon, and the collection would be perfect to scrap this with! The trims are amazing!!
|
Leo -This collection is soo cheery. I think any daytime photos of a lakeside afternoon or a day at the park would go great with these. I’ll leave those activities to you out there as my daytime photos would consist of me watching reruns of the Golden Girls whilst elbow deep into a family size hint of lime Tostitos bag….covered in pizza crumbs…yes, it is a sweet life. |
|
 |
Tiff -This is the line I am using for my Valentine cards this year. It’s perfect! The papers with the tags, adorable envelopes, and of course the hearts will all be included in my cards. I also love the non-traditional colors that were added to this collection. |
Joann -I agree with Leo on this one, I absolutely love the colors. What’s great is that the design is classic with the flourishes and what not, but the colors are so modern looking. I already have my eye on the hot pinks and bright reds. Very full of passion. |
Jaclyn -Love Story: I adore the smaller patterns and the journaling blocks from this collection in particular. The patterns would be great for my inchies (as if I don’t already have enough 1×1 inch squares all over my apartment!), and the journaling blocks would be awesome in my smash book. Most of the projects I do I usually need more compact patterns for more impact. This collection’s great for that! |
Leo -More love in the air. These colors rock, pop, and roll! lol…Perhaps I’ll document someone else’s relationship….that’s not creepy in the last bit right? But on the real, this would make any layout really pop. Good job Fancy Pants…Good job. |

Check out our take on the new collections this week! |
|
 |
|
 |
Tiff -This line is perfect for pictures of my little brother. This past year was filled with a lot of firsts! |
Joann -Much like Tiff I’ll be using this for the little guys in my life. I love the stickers! This is definitely THE line for any boy. |
Jaclyn -I totally adore all these patterns. I actually think I’ll pick up a few to showcase my little nephew playing with all his christmas toys! |
Leo -For some reason my great aunt Mildred has taken it upon her to document my entire life. Of course I love the attention. I think I may give this to her so she can make those pictures really pop |
|
 |
Tiff -Like my bio says, I LOVE owls, so of course I LOVE this lol. Making a card for my little honey bunny will be great with this collection. |
Joann -This is so sweet. This upcoming Valentine’s will be the first I spend MARRIED with my hubby. I can’t wait to cut out the heart shapes and create a nice layout. |
Jaclyn -I am a sucker for any lovey-dovey sorts of paper (I spend far more money than I should around Valentine’s Day, lemme tell ya!), and this collection is no different. My favorite piece is the cardstock stickers. Gonna be littered all through my smash book! |
Leo -As a single and very eligible bachelor I have no need for this collection, but I happen to know many that need to use this on me *BOOM* |
|
 |
Tiff -Fluttery, buttery, and totally cute. I love the flourishes and all the hearts. I even think you can mix it with some of the Jillibean Soup “Hearty Barley” for a really nice layout that is a bit more balanced. |
Joann -I guess I’ll be using THIS collection for the second Valentine’s Day album I plan on making hehe. |
Jaclyn -OMG, love love love…I love all this love! ♥ I am so getting this! It’ll be perfect for making a valentine for my fella. OOH, and this line looks GREAT for inchies!!! |
Leo -This just makes me want cuddle, watch Moulin Rouge, and cuddle some more. |
|
 |
Tiff -We always have people over for St. Patty’s day and I’m sure this year won’t be any different. We have a green beer fountain, green snacks, and if I’m good, my husband dresses up like a Leprechaun! Needless to say, the photos from that day are always awesome. This collection would be perfect for it. |
Joann -My sons get really into St. Patrick’s day. They’re well into their 20′s. One day I arrived home to find them sporting Leprechaun shirts and big fake beards. It was so out of the blue and soo much fun. I’ll be sure to use this collection for this year’s festivities. |
Jaclyn -This line is so fun. Once we take our group St.Patty’s Day picture here at SYT, I’ll be using this to add it into my smash book! The little text-based patterns just pull me in! |
Leo -Appropriately titled, I feel like I get into a lot of “Shenanigans” on this day. Nothing too crazy, but my friends definitely make it unforgettable every year (which to some may be difficult lol) I’m thinking some really cute invites could be made with this collection for our annual “Kiss me even if I’m not Irish” party |
|
 |
Tiff -I have a lot of pics from Winter up north. We don’t get snow here in Orlando so I always cherish the snow lol. This also has a nice nostalgic touch to it that I think would go great with pictures I have of my family and the kids. |
Joann -Some of the winter collections I’ve seen have been very bright and in your face. They’re nice, but once in a while I like a nice toned down collection like this. I feel like my pictures will be the ones popping. |
Jaclyn -That mitten paper reminds me of this box of mittens my mama always kept. So few ever matched. I wonder where they went, and which one of us she kept buying mittens for…none of us liked mittens! Love the colors in this collection, and the designs are way cute. |
Leo -I found an album the other day of pictures my great aunt Mildred took of me when I used to live in New York. Why I was wearing a hideous periwinkle onesie, a hat more appropriate for the planes of Machu Picchu, and bright yellow rain boots, I’ll never know. I guess it gave her joy, so I think I’ll collect some of those pics and make her a nice layout for her birthday coming up. I agree with Joann, love the touch of nostalgia this brings. |

Digital Alphabets:
Hey everyone, Leo here with another great “digital tip” (said in a robot voice). I wanted to showcase our awesome digital alphabets and let you know why they are so awesome.
As with any digital download, you can get them instantly on your computer without the hassles of shipping etc. You also have the capability of copying and pasting letters, meaning that you can have an infinite number of ANY letters in a set. Is your name Anamaria? Before, you would have needed more than one pack of alphas to get every “A”…now, you can just copy and paste it as many times as you want = )
Another thing I love about the digital alphas is that you can incorporate them into your physical albums and layouts. Just take some heavy stock paper, print out your alphas, and voila, you have the perfect alpha design for your titles, corners, or descriptions. The neat thing is that you can size them however big or small you need them.
Here are some of MY favorite alphas. They’re totally fun and can be used on many a layout. Enjoy more
here.

Simple Stories-Baby steps
I fell in love with the Simple Stories Baby Steps collection. I love the color palette in this collection. It will work for a baby boy or baby girl scrapbook. (In my case it’s both
