Kiwi Lane September Blog Hop



It is sad to think that this is my final blog hop with Kiwi Lane as a Design Team member. I have greatly enjoyed my time with them. As sad as it is, I am really excited for the incoming Design Team. There such awesome talent in the new ladies and I am so excited to see all their new ideas and projects. Be sure to stick around Kiwi Lane because it is going to be awesome!

Now that all that sentimental stuff is out of the way, on to the Blog Hop!  For my layout, I used some Strips, Sunnybrook Lane, Journey, and Tiny Brackets, all of which are lots of fun.


The Journey templates were perfect in so many ways to document our fun family mini road trip. 

The suitcase template is perfect for journaling. The possibilities with these templates are endless. Be sure to come back later this month to see how I use these templates in a different way.

Thanks for stopping by today! Head on Over to Tammy's blog for the next stop on the hop and be sure to leave a comment because one lucky commenter from one of the blogs will win this awesome swag prize from Simple Stories (winner will be announced on the Kiwi Blog on Thursday, Sept. 12th):

    I love this layout, Staci! I love the journaling on the suitcases and the way you places your accessories- they are perfectly done to move the eye around the page and take it all in. I'm going to miss having you on the design team. Sniff, sniff. But, I'm looking forward to meeting you in person later this month!

    I love how you used the suitcase as a journaling block. Would have not thought of that myself. You know, if you wanted to use it in a recipe layout all you would have to do is cut straight across on the bottom to remove the wheels and you would have a tabbed recipe card.

    Well done!!!

    Fabulous layout! The suitcase journalling blocks are so cute :-) --- don't think I'd be too thrilled about seeing a snake, though ;-) What a nice family activity :-)
