Social Media Butterflies Blog Hop: May 2013 with Paislee Press

This month the Social [Media] Butterflies are featuring the ever amazing Paislee Press! If you aren't familiar with Liz Tamanaha and her brand Paisless Press, you are in for an awesome treat. Liz is the designer of the Midnight Edition Project Life Core Kit and makes minimalist memory keeping ultra trendy. She's one of my absolute favorite designers right now and I am thrilled beyond belief to work with her awesome digital projects.

Please make sure to check her amazing stuff out here at her blog: PaisleePress.com. Make sure to hop all the way through, leaving comments on the blogs to be entered to win a $25 Gift Certificate to the Paislee Press digital shop! Even if you aren't a digital scrapbooker; Liz makes the best Project Life journaling cards that you can download and print at home (or send to Persnickety Prints like I did). Thanks so much for playing along with us this week!

This month I'm sharing a Project Life spread using several sets of Paislee Press journaling cards, and some Midnight Core Kit Edition mixed in (they go SO well together)! I 'embraced my inner minimalist' this week and stuck with a very basic spread.

What Happened This Week? There weren't too many exciting stories from this week, so I decided to focus on a couple of pictures from early in the week and then an impromptu photo shoot that Jeffrey and I took on Thursday afternoon.

Favorite Parts of This Week's Spread: I'm loving the minimalist look. I think I've been veering this way for a while; and its starting to feel right for me. A couple little embellishments here and there (like the polka dot chipboard star, or the Studio Calico polaroid die cut on the woodgrain card) really help to bring everything together.
